Super Mario Brothers the Movie, The Epic, the movie, the wonderfully lame joyride of plotlessness! Options

So, back when I was a young, young whipper-snapper gas was only $1.19 a gallon, and there was a movie that disgusted the heck out of almost every Nintendo junkie in the world.

It was called "Super Mario Brothers", made by you heard me right, Disney. It was totally live action. The movie was a HUGE flop, but I love it, and I think it may actually be among my favorite movies.

Shigeru Miyamoto got together with the Disney team to create a Mario movie that was a story of its own. It didn't follow a game plot or anything. It was like it's own thing, and that's what most people don't understand.

The movie's main stars are Bob Hoskins (The guy from Who Framed Roger Rabbit?) as Mario and John Luguizamo (You've probably seen him in several places, but you're probably not sure where) as Luigi.

You kids know you want to watch it.

Anyway, moral of the story, does anyone remember/enjoy/hate/etc. this movie? I want to know if I'm the only one who totally LOVED it.

I watched it on Youtube in the summer. It wasn't the best movie in the world... But it was okay. I didn't like the thing where the Mushroom kingdom was this horrible place to live. I thought the goomba thing (normal height, but with a shruken head) was weird. The whole 'evolution' thing was just weird altogether. I understood it, but I was like "What the crap?" during the whole movie. The whole love story between Luigi and Daisy was cute. The fact that Daisy's dad was a fungus was just odd, even though he was turned into that (if my memory serves me correctly).

The ending was kinda funny when Daisy goes back to Brooklyn and she's like "We need your help again!" or something along those lines.
