              You're right, it didn't bomb. Well no yet at least.
              But that headline is straight up bullshit. The movie has $250 million budget and it'd need somewhere between $500 and $700 to break even. It's gonna need some strong legs in th US to break even since it looks like it's had a lukewarm reception overseas

    Honestly the film was boring; but the film has Man children that flocked in droves to watch it. Also Disney is currently suffering with mediocre animated films and garbage live action remakes all to shill their streaming service.

    Mario did better because it was just a animated family movie and nothing more.

    This movie had so much effort put into it. Does Illumination's other works compare? I saw Megamind ages ago but it seemed just barely above average.

      And no. This arguably the most effort Illumination has a put in a movie in a movie. They usually do not delay their movies by 4 months.

    Its release didn't coincide with the Russian invasion of Ukraine or the reversal of the Roe v. Wade decision. The writers also didn't deliberately make decisions with the script that they would have known in advance were going to awaken the sleeping giant known as /misc/ and fill it with terrible resolve to ruin the release in any way they possibly could.

    Solid technical writing.
    The ability of the script to stay on topic - a throughline - seems to be completely overlooked by modern critics in favor of gimmicks. Without it, the movie loses forward momentum, and it becomes frustrating and dull because your brain is always trying to separate what is important from what is frivolous. While there is a place for mumblecore movies, a traditional story is not supposed to feel like a real conversation. It's an editing down of events, dialogue, and ideas.
    I don't care how simple the Super Mario Bros story is, I care that it's well-told. It is better written, and more specifically better edited, than Strange World and Lightyear.

    The film is made with a little bit of passion for Mario stuff, but it's basically just a reference checklist. not really objectively good, the pacing is breakneck as they just throw setpiece after setpiece at you. It's basically a movie you just see once and then say "oh that was fun."

    Meanwhile Strange Worlds and Lightyear are bereft of anything resembling a soul and also not even fun family movies. Like Mario at least had a modicum of care, the other two just feel like the bosses forced them to make it.

    Mario.
    Mario at multiple points throughout history has been more recognizable than Mickey Mouse.
    If Strange World was a Mickey Mouse movie, I guarantee you it would have made a billion in box office revenue.
