How will a Mario movie work?

I hope it's nothing but the Mario 64 title screen for two hours with Charles Martinet expounding a communist manifesto while Marios face is distorted.

This will end well

>Nintendo started encroaching into animated film territory
>In response, Disney started taking videogames seriously.
Would this be good?

trilogy as follow :
Origin story
Bowser Rise
Smash league
I hope one isn't made for Kirby, I can't handle any more character assassination and lore rape like that shitty anime provided. The games have just barely recovered from that "Kirby is a baby" nonsense, injecting more trash like that into the series will ruin everything, especially with such an uninspired director the games currently have.

It could be a 12-hour epic

There were a few in the late 80's, they were pretty good.
Oh fucking great, just as capeshit is dying down after infinity war ends we will get vidyashit

Nintendo can't get games right or toys right; there's no chance in hell they'll get movies right
Watch Miyamoto drop in and threaten the producers not to put a complicated story and make it about "LOL MARIO MEMES JUMP KOOPA PEACH SAVED THE END"
>>337728889
Mario 3/World be the best bet. Any of the 3D games work well as well.
