Make Captain Lou Albano proud
During the weekend’s Super Bowl LVII festivities, production studio Illumination rolled out the big bucks to present fans with a brand new trailer for its upcoming releaseThe Super Mario Bros. Movie— And this latest preview was a real treat for old-school Nintendo fans, as it featured the return of the “Super Mario Bros. Rap”.
For folks younger than my aging self, the Super Mario Bros. Rap featured as the title music to the choppy (it was) animated seriesSuper Mario. Bros Super Show, which originally aired way back in 1989. The show was famed for producing short, rubbish adventures, which were sandwiched between some wild, live-action bumper segments. These moments famously featured WWE star Captain Lou Albano as Mario and Canadian actor Danny Wells as Luigi. Once, Elvira showed up, though the Mistress of the Dark is yet to make her official Mario game debut. Sadness.
The Super Mario Bros. Movieis scheduled to launch in theaters in the UK and Europe in late-March. It will premiere in North America on April 7. So far, it’s looking to be a perfectly fun piece of entertainment.
