Reviews for Emo Mario

Uhm...

Well, it doesn't look much different to me than it did earlier, but maybe I missed something. In any case, he didn't seem very goth; he just seemed a little bummed that he'd found the wrong princess. The shrinking and the black outfit and the crying was fine, but to call it "goth" wasn't really correct. Also, I wish you'd carried the story a lot further; it seemed like you set it up well with what you've got here, but then it should continue and we should see how Mario deals with his newfound depression. Make a real story out of it.

Since this was way too short, and since I don't see any real improvement on the previous submission, I'm voting lower on this edition than I did on the last one. I hope you'll consider improving this flash some more.

WTF?

Mario the emo was a better movie.

I can tell you put A LOT of work into this one.

Seriously though the end was funny, I laughed. Good job.

Short of it's potential.

One, I think you're overlapping Goth with Emo. They aren't the same thing.
Goth = Black-wearing, 'outcasts' of society, the like being creepy, and can be downright hostile to anyone no in their clique`
Emo = Suicidal, people who are manically depressed.

Two, there SOOOOO many goth stereotypes to poke fun at, and all you got to was the black clothes?

Three, the humor was bland, just a bit of name-calling.

Four, the "SMB1: Defeat Bowser/Our princess is in another castle" scene has been done more times than the only whore in a seaport. There are DOZENS of other topics in the Mario universe.

Five, (this is kindy nit-picky, but w/e) The actual part where Bowser falls into the lava is Untrue to the Game. There's supposed to be a Ceiling, and the Bridge is a little bit below the Ledge with the Axe on it. (Between 1/2 block to one block above depending on the Level, if my memory serves)

Six, Too short. Even if the joke had been good, it's at best a one-trick pony. Hell, you coulda slipped by if you had a fair number of Mediocre jokes. More jokes = Better score

Seven, the Voice samples needed cleaning up. Static and Background noise was present. A no-no when using ripped sounds.

Eight, (last one) Mario's black clothing was invisible against the black background of the castle., I know that's how the game is, but you could have differed the two by a few shades, so it was visible.

A Fall From Grace

The original Emo Mario was funny and everyone I showed it to got a good laugh. This, however, is one of the worst Mario shorts I've ever seen! The original didn't get blammed, but this one did.

It basically involves Mario walking through a very short scene and then talking trash to a toad. It's boring, lacks imagination, and contains nothing funny whatsoever. Sequels are rarely as good as the original, but this is downright pathetic -- blam this piece of crap!
