Yeah I dunno about Chris' voice. You would think one of the most iconic video game characters ever would have a rather distinct one.

If this was even like 6-7 years ago we would have gotten the Italian stereotype voice I bet. Just now, it isn't worth the hassle. At least Pratt is doing a bit of a Brooklyn accent.

Ok.. Im just curious why this trailer is getting a rather substantial amount of dislikes, regardless of which one you look at. Then on top of that, comments are turned off. Im not even sure how anyone can be offended by fucking Mario of all things.

Welcome to 2022 where being offended is a part of peoples self worth.

My kids, who love playing Mario games, always have the game sounds blasting loudly. I keep trying to get my son into liking Mario Galaxy, but he just doesn't get into it the way my daughter will. But then again, he's only 5, and isn't very good at handling the Wii controller yet.

its going to get hate no matter what. It’s been tame here so far but it’ll crank up as more previews come out.

Like I said before, I don't mind it. I wouldn't want to listen to a high pitched exaggerated Italian accent for two hours. Kids will love it, it'll make millions and it looks alright otherwise.

I get why some may not be a fan though.
he's gotta say at least once "Its a me, Mario!'"

its not a stereotype. italians from Italy actually talk that way when speaking english. i dont know why. its like chinese cant say their Ls and Rs correctly or germans shit up the english language all over the place. i'm kind of offended Pratt doesnt sound anything like Mario.

i guess it depends on how long they have been speaking english. my relatives from Italy used "a this a and a that a" all the time. like i said. no idea why, but speaking that way was definitely a thing. those relatives died in the 70s before Mario.
listen to a minute of this guy

I listened to a Mario version and people will say it's more fitting but having the accent I see why it comes off annoying. The accent doesnt work for a movie, would hate having to listen to it for 90 minutes. Also the accent they use in the games was racist at one point. I know they hate take on Italian accents

no worries, I'm pretty sure somebody will make a fan cut of Mario sounding like how Mario should sound.
"oh mama mia, its a Bowser a and he's a trying to a fuck a my princess a in her a Super Star hole a."

I like the New York adjacent treatment they’re giving his voice. A full length film voiced in the same tone as the video game Mario would make me want to jump into a pit IRL.

I thought the same thing, when did Mario get a voice. I remember beat boxing versions of the games
