The Super Mario Bros. Movie produced by Illumination made a significant impact earlier this year, setting new records with its debut. Notably, the movie achieved a remarkable feat by overshadowing the memory of the previous Super Mario Bros. film from 1993. Despite the peculiarities of its storyline, the somewhat outdated special effects, and the challenging production process (marked by Bob Hoskins resorting to alcohol to cope with filming demands), the film has gradually acquired a status akin to that of a cult classic.

Where To Watch: Super Mario Bros. (1993)
Interestingly, in Japan, there are plans for a commemorative event in honor of the movie's 30th anniversary. This event involves a special 4K screening of the Super Mario Bros. film, taking place in theaters on September 15th. This initiative not only underscores the enduring appeal of the film but also highlights its significance within the context of Mario's pop culture legacy.
