"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I liked it. A lot

But maybe its not a good movie on its own merits. I feel this could have been a mediocre movie if you took away the Mario IP and used new characters instead.

But as it is, it felt like a movie made for the fans. Basically 90 minutes of pure fan service.

Hope they make a Nintendo Cinematic Universe like Marvel. The NCU

@Dr.Suave is it worth it? I was asked to go see it with some buds, but felt somewhat opposed to it given Chris Pratts voicing mario and yada yada

If you are a big fan of the games, then yes, totally worth it and enjoyable imho. Its a popcorn movie.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Bump.

Appently the movie is being very succesfull in many metrics, despite the woke and lgbt+ community trying to boicott it for not being woke and inclusive.

I think cinematic universes inevitably lead to the horse being beaten to death.

Marvel should have stopped at Endgame.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Yeah, I guess you are on to something. The MCU has not been the same after Endgame.

I mean, I liked the Spiderman Movies a lot but most MCU stuff post endgame has been Medicore vs before Endgame I liked everything Eexcept Captain Marvel. Maybe they should have stop introducing new characters after Endgame and just finish the remaining contracts/storylines like Spider-Man, Guardians vol 3, Loki, etc.

Had to go see it cause my friend's nephews wanted to. It is definitely a kid's movie. But you can tell Hollywood's rampant feminism struck again as we saw Princess Peach turned into an annoying female action character that not only took the spotlight, but she could beat up anyone, was never hurt, and she belittles everyone around her. Sounds familiar? Cause it is. Mario's name is on the title but it's technically a Peach movie. The Rey Skywalker trope strikes again.

Another woke trash.
