MAN ON FILM: SUPER MARIO GALAXY Welcome, welcome, WELCOME to the best show in the world — where it’s always RAINING MAN — this is MAN ON FILM with your host Mr. Xcellence… and this week?Oh yes. We just stepped out of a private screening of SUPER MARIO GALAXY……and baby, we got THOUGHTS.Let’s start here: This one gets a strong 75%.Which means yes — they actually came back and did what needed to be DONE.Because after that first movie? We had questions.Concerns.Doubts.Maybe even a little emotional damage.But THIS time? Bigger world Better visuals More ambition More “okay wait… now y’all cooking”This episode, we get into:• Why this movie feels like Nintendo finally decided to stop playing with us • Jack Black absolutely eating as Bowser like this is lowkey HIS franchise now • Brie Larson pulling up as Rosalina with full cosmic princess energy • Glenn Powell entering the chat as Star Fox like somebody in the casting room was feeling REAL bold • And the one thing that took a CHUNK out of the score… What did they do to Yoshi??Yes.We have to talk about it.Because if you know, you KNOW.And if you don’t?Oh, trust… we’re going there. This movie really said:“What if Mario got bigger, weirder, more galactic, more emotional, more cinematic…but still kept enough chaos to make the crowd lose their minds?” And honestly?That part works.A LOT of it works.The visuals? Gorgeous.The scale? Huge.The fan-service moments? Oh they knew exactly what they were doing.There were multiple times we were sitting there like:“Okay wait… why is this actually hitting??” BUT because this is MAN ON FILM…you already know we’re not just here to clap and smile.We’re asking the REAL questions: Why is one of the most beloved Mario characters getting treated like an afterthought? Why did Bowser almost run off with the whole damn movie by himself? Why does Luigi seem like he’s having a whole separate little emotional journey?? And why are certain princesses looking at Mario like they got plans beyond the galaxy?? We also break down:• The moments that made us laugh• The scenes that genuinely gagged us visually• The post-credit setups that got us READY for the next one• And whether this is finally the Mario sequel that gives the franchise real staying powerBecause let’s be honest…This isn’t just about whether the movie is “good.”It’s about whether Nintendo and Universal finally figured out how to turn this into a real movie universe.And from what we saw? They might actually have something. Final verdict:75%A definite step up.A much better ride.A visually stacked sequel with real crowd-pleasing energy.And yes…we’re still side-eyeing the Yoshi situation. Bottom line:If you love Mario…If you love animation…If you want a sequel that actually tries to go BIGGER…this episode is for you.Because we break down the highs, the chaos, the missed opportunities, and the moments that had us ready to argue in the parking lot after the credits rolled MAN ON FILM — where we don’t just watch movies… we EXPERIENCE them.Tap in. Tell a friend. Follow the show. And remember:If you make a whole Super Mario Galaxy movie and don’t give Yoshi his proper moment…we are going to have words. #ManOnFilm#SuperMarioGalaxy#MarioMovie#MovieReview#AcastPodcastsHere’s a shorter Acast version too, in case you want the tighter post: MAN ON FILM: SUPER MARIO GALAXY This week on MAN ON FILM, we’re talking SUPER MARIO GALAXY — and yes… they actually stepped it UP.
