Hold on. If they put everyone in wheelchairs that have a boost button this could be fun to watch. Also everyone is dressed as a furry. And all your friends are yelling at you.

I'm in.

In terms of future films, Donkey Kong is an easy choice. Luigi's Mansion would also be a logical follow up. A film up against Wario & Waluigi, then even giving them a villain "solo" movie, or Bowser. But! That's all Mario adjacent.

Nintendo properties generally have a silent protagonist, so you need someone who can talk. A Kirby film could work if you add a talking hat or something.

I'd love to see a Metroid film, but I think a PG horror/thriller/isolation film would be hard.

Splatoon could be an interesting choice. With the success of K-Pop Demon Hunters I could see a Splatoon movie that leans heavily into music.

Star Fox would actually be an excellent choice but we haven't had much in that franchise for a while.

I'll defend Speed Racer (2008). It's a beautiful film, full of color and fun. Sure the story is simple, but it's just so much fun.

I mean it is a cool idea. It's not a cool idea for a last minute series finale, but it's a cool idea.

Releases September 11, 2026 for anyone wondering, after Supergirl (June 2026).

A villain origin story like this is exciting. In many ways it gets to be what all those Sony Spider-man without Spider-Man movies wanted to be... except we get to include ~~Spider-Man~~ Batman at some point.

How Simu Liu wasn't the star and connective tissue of the MCU post Endgame I'll never know.

We should have had three Shang Chi films in the build up to Doomsday, or at least three films with him in a leading role.

I hope he gets to do more post Secret Wars, but I fear we're going to be leaning heavily into the X-Men, not that the X-Men are bad, I just want more Simu.

Let me be the rain that restores you!

He can't toot on command, so it takes a little extra effort. Someday he'll be as good as his father.

Well, beans were a staple of the Israelites.

Correct!

I watch The Daily Show, Colbert & Seth Meyers most nights (and John Oliver). Usually the monologues and major bits (Meanwhile, Closer Look, etc), and then the interview if it looks interesting (or always if it's Jon).

No. Under the desk or not at all. https://youtu.be/mNiqpBNE9ik
