I wish we had that Mario movie in the 90s instead of the live action, le sigh.

Give the 90s live action movie credit...it got the characters right. Everything else was wrong easily, but all the characters were pretty well done. Which reminds me for the new Mario Bros movie...

I love how they basically gave a nod to the 90s one with the final battle against Bowser being in Brooklyn.

Always, always, always arrive early enough to empty the bladder before going into the theater and sitting down. A small soda is a large anywhere else, and a theater large is a bucket.

Me & my husband tested positive for COVID-19. Just in time where my maternity leave ended. I’m trying my best not to breakdown. Our daughter will be staying with my parents until we recover. She’s only 3 months old. God I can’t explain how awful it feels to be separated from her

Think positive. You are married with a healthy daughter and probably supportive husband. Almost a millionaire already!
Good luck <3

My heart breaks for you as I’ve been there myself, an emergency C-section and he was rushed to the NICU but I had tested positive for Covid so I was separated from him for a week while he was there, I cried listening to mothers getting up to tend to their babies in the maternity ward while I hadn’t even been able to meet mine. He spent 39 days in the NICU and then moved to the SCN until I had enough and signed him out AMA because the insurance company would not sign off on a monitor even though the pulmonologist from childrens wrote a strongly worded letter and we took him home on oxygen. You will get through this and it will only make you love your little one more but stay strong! You’ll have him home soon!

The old movie is far more interesting if you read about the behind-the-scenes drama. Like how the script was being rewritten constantly, sometimes even during filming, so nobody bothered to memorize lines any earlier because they'd just get changed anyway. Or how Dennis Hopper, at one point, screamed at the producers for over two hours straight.

I liked that mess of a movie. Even better when you know they changed the script so much that the actors stopped caring and were drunk in pretty much every scene.

The behind the scenes stuff is amazing.

It even made for some really good moments despite it. And I think everybody remembers one of the best moments..."Bob-omb".

Bob-omb was the highlight of that film lol.
