  • They really dialed back on the modern music drops. Mostly it was orchestral music that wove in motifs based on the games’ soundtracks, the way it should have been in the first movie.

    I see from Lymmyng’s comment I’m not the only one confused by the castle dropping back down onto a completely different planet.

    For like 3/4 of the movie I thought Rosalina was going to be Peach’s mother, not sister.

    The excessive attention given to Fox lends credence to those rumors there’s a Starfox game coming later this year.

    No Fryguy or Triclyde. So glad we finally got Wart and Mouser recognition again, at least.

    Overall, like the first movie, but bigger. A vehicle for random references and cameos where stuff just kind of happens for the fun of it. My standards for video game movies are still pretty low, so I enjoyed it for what it was. Probably won’t revisit anytime soon, but I don’t regret watching it or anything.

    Also the Toy Story 5 trailer beforehand (and its “toys vs tech” story) hits a little different when half the kids in the theater were looking at their phones just a few minutes earlier. Kinda looks like you lost that fight already. :(
