If that's real, then he has a wider, more chubbier expression. So basically a fat Plumber lol. It's a tad more human too.
More leaks, regarding another character's appearance and the film's logo/title
Peach and "The Super Mario Bros. Movie"
Peach seems to also have made the transition well, not surprising as she already had a very doll-like design.
Super interested to see how they do DK and Bowser.

Peach and "The Super Mario Bros. Movie"
Mario looks noticeably more like his game-self here. Original leak might just have had slightly squashed proportions due to angle/camera/whatever
His top teeth are often visible.
It's the lower teeth that's new
Peach's face looks like the romantic interest in Despicable Me 2 minus the huge nose. I suppose it's the eyes.
Or......8 hours to convince a giant corporation to force a team of animators to completely re-design a major character in a CGI-heavy production only months away from final release.
We can do it!
I don't know why, but I'm not much of a fan of literally calling it "The Super Mario Bros. Movie." It's alright, I guess.
Granted, they can't use "Super Mario Bros." because that's already taken by the 1993 movie, and would create some confusion.
But I'd be okay with just "Super Mario" or "Super Mario <Subtitle>". Similar to how the main 3D Mario games are called (Sunshine, Galaxy, Odyssey, 3D Land / World).
I'm being super pedantic here, I know. But I'm not overly serious about this, just discussing this for fun.

Lets just be happy they didn't call it "New Super Mario Bros." in avoiding having the same title as the live action movie.
Oh my… That would have been such a chaotic and Nintendo-like move that it kinda loops back around to being a great idea xD
Otherwise they can't make The Super Mario Bros. Movie: The Game
Holy shit, I thought this was gonna be an animated movie, wtf??? That's literally just Anya Taylor-Joy. What the hell is Nintendo thinking!
The DK leaked art is literally Seth Rogen with a huge beard, too. Movie's gonna suck
My first reaction:
Did they put a blonde wig on the main character from Tangled? Maybe it's the eyes, but I get Disney Princess vibes. Not saying that as a bad or good thing.
With the number of questionable takes in this thread, I wonder how many have pre written a thread and will be furiously F5ing to get their thread and hot take in first.
Mario is mostly red and blue. In the title treatment the red and blue spells out 'Mr. Bi'. Male love interest confirmed.More leaks, regarding another character's appearance and the film's logo/title
Peach and "The Super Mario Bros. Movie"
Despicable Me 1 was a good time, but basically everything they've done after has been mediocre fluff at best.
The eyes are too rounded, the nose is a bit more button-like, and the mouth doesn't have the typical ear-to-ear grin I associate with the Disney look. It's a lot more "cutesy", at least in this still imo.
Honestly they both look fine. A bit different but that's to be expected, I don't think the look of the movie should worry anyone
Mario looks more middle aged now, and chubbier. I think it's the moustache, it's less round

I think the world will change forever today. This will be the best movie of all time and highest grossing, something like Titanic but double.
This thread gives me major deja vu to back when the whole internet was convinced Mario & Rabbids was gonna suck, and the leaks that lead up to that reveal.
They're not great films but their movies average like $700m at the box office.
I think they could get away with this. Plenty of movies do it already and they'd be more likely to erase the existence of the original movie.
Derp, maybe I'm thinking of someone else. That's on me for misremembering.
I dunno, looks more like Chris Pratt to me
Either way, just like Mario, it's fine. A bit of "oh, that's different from what I'm used to seeing" shock, but the more I see it, the more okay I'm with it. Especially since I feel like the new designs will make it a little easier to accept the fact I'm gonna be hearing different voices coming out of them.
There's no denying something is off, the regular Mario renders are so iconic.
It's a no from me but yeah, he's no ugly Sonic.

They make decent (sometimes good) films that are very crowd-pleasing to the mainstream masses. Meaning they have pretty simple plots, sometimes rely on basic/potty jokes, and use licensed songs. But their animation has always been some of the best.
My main concern was Illumination would straight up butcher the overall theme of the Mario like they did with the Grinch. But between Miyamoto's strong involvement and seeing the official poster plus the Mario/Peach leaks, most of my concerns have been put to rest.
