Could The Super Mario Bros. Movie Have Been Worse? Yes
A few weeks back we shared this hilarious interview where Bob Hoskins admitted his hate for the Super Mario Bros. movie in an interview [see]. I can’t believe this, but we have more news on the almost 20 year old movie (Blu-ray special anyone?).
Via NintendoLife and The Super Mario Bros. Movie Archive (yes, a site dedicated to this movie) we learned that the movie had several rewrites which led us to lose this gem of a line: “Women are like old-time sinks. They run hot or cold, no in between.”
The original drafts and script notes that led to the final film include: the “Ghostbusters-inspired” sci-fi comedy script, the “Die Hard-inspired” sci-fi/action script and the secondary “Max Max-inspired” sci-fi/action script. Read them all here.
