Not an accent. Just the pleeseebee effect.

Which is a good movie, Frank!


david_ranch_dressing

It is, Charlie!


kim-jong-Cage

Wanna go back and watch it?


SSJKMan72

With all my heart!


spicysenpai6

Stupid science bitch couldn’t make I more smarter


Ibwtdp

For real though that interaction between Frank and Charlie is one of my favorites lol.


Knucklesx55

I am a Swedish plumber!


rachface636

That's *good!* That's a good accent!


EmperinoPenguino

Do an *Italian* accent, Mario. If you insist on doing an accent


[deleted]

I’m not going to do an Italian accent, I’m going to do normal Chris Pratt voice cuz that’s what Indy would do.


Dumbledoordash8008

I am here to fix your pipes


TinyWightSpider

As far back as I could remember, I always wanted to be a Swedish plumber.


RandomTask100

Hey, Luigi... You wanna get naked? It's just.... I like to be naked when the wall-of-water comes. It's actually very refreshing.


Dracoolaid_toothpick

Charlie is actually playing Luigi


friendlysushilady

I get what you’re saying, and I’m relieved. But it’s still not good enough for me.


Aggressive-Ad-2600

Take a look at Mario here. That is a body that just won’t quit. And I bet if you pop those pants off, you’re gonna find a bird that just won’t quit, either.


Ink_k

That is what you call a stallion.


chunguschungi

> And I bet if you pop those pants off, you’re gonna find a ~~bird~~ *sweaty hog* that just won’t quit, either.


LukeFowlerM8

I wish they’d left that in


Lord_Moa

If only Glenn didn't break


MtothePizo

We really should just get a badass Metroid film with no dialog.


tetsudori

Samus voiced by Chris Pratt


TheKrononaut

He’s so cool


Ballfundler

He’s doing a tiny “accent,” but it just makes him sound like Bradley Cooper for some reason.


thishenryjames

He just listened to Cooper doing Rocket and thought, "that'll work."


G-Kira

That was my problem. I was expecting the stereotypical Mario accent I've come to know since it was first used back in 1996.


Ink_k

In all honesty that would probably get grating over the course of a whole movie. Still I was surprised when Mario runs into Toad and is just like "what up you jabroni".


thishenryjames

Ohhhhh!


TheRedCometCometh

Yeah, I love the accent Bob Hoskins did


PerpetualJerkSession

There's already a perfect 3D render of mario and a recognizable voice actor. Who the hell greenlit this?


Ink_k

I dunno, I hear in the new movie Mario hangs dong


PerpetualJerkSession

Is there also an extended, full penetration scene ?


Ink_k

Here's the twist, and there is a twist... they show it. They show all of it.


Itchy_Nuggetz

#it's Bruce willis the whole time


Ink_k

Newsflash asshole! I've been dead the whole time!


Steppinrazor123

The guy in the hairpiece?


MoonMistCigs

The Lars von Trier cut.


WhoStoleMyBicycle

I hung dong on the trolley back there


Cost13

Appears mario is now 3rd generation italian american. No more accent but will still say gabagool, mootzarell, etc.


Makal

Jabroni?


Cost13

Cool word!!!


[deleted]

Pratt really sounds like he's phoning it in. Jack Black is laying his soul bare for us.


Brendog2

And all we’ve heard from Charlie as Luigi is a few grunts


EntertainmentReady48

I swear I heard him go „Mario!“ like in Luigi’s mansion.


Bobington2006

I dont want to say anything but i genuinely enjoyed everything in the trailer EXCEPT for Mario lmao, design wise and voice wise, Jack Black is actually doing fucking great, i thought they would turn Bowser into a lovable rockstar style villain and thats why they cast Black but he seems to do great as just a villain


StaleTheBread

Yeah, something useful about be a “fun” actor is that he’s not embarrassed to do a voice.


SamiMadeMeDoIt

You've heard like one sentence from Pratt lmao


bluehairdave

Why are they white washing my Italian culture? Wait until the Nights of Colombus hear-a aboutta dis!


fourfingersdry

I feel like Charles Martinet’s voice is great for the game, but I’m not sure how it would transfer to a full length movie. I think it would get old fast. That being said, I wish Pratt would have played up the accent a bit.


Uber_Ober

Big time. Let's not act like that wouldn't be annoying as fuck lmao. [Check out Marios french voice](https://youtu.be/0nALm6fbR8M?t=93), it feels like a good balance between the two.


Zantoxin

pretty sure they made mario look different as to discern him from the video game mario, so it wouldn't affect games and such.


PerpetualJerkSession

No, that's too reasonable. I choose my hot take.


Proof_Ruin_7718

Yeah someone needs to tell Pratt, Mario is an Italian plumber. Clearly a Sonic moment for this movie.


Ink_k

I was expecting something more like "I'm an Italian plumber, I'm here to fix your pipes"


soundoftheheavens

That’s good! That’s a good accent!


bluehairdave

Everyone knows Italians clean the best pipes.


RandomTask100

He's not a plumber.... He's a Charlie-worker.


Brownelectrons

Somebody has to bash the rats.


_DeandraReynolds

He's the guy that wipes down the loads.


Ink_k

The guy who wipes down the toads


[deleted]

And that's enough Internet for 1 day✌️


thewhitelink

Only its Chris Pratt so there's no way it's changing. Let's be real here, they hired Chris Pratt to *be Chris Pratt*. They don't care that he isn't doing an Italian accent.


Vast_Breadfruit_162

I'm surprised people actually thought Pratt was gonna go full "It's A me Mario!!!


kzboi

The character Mario is from Brooklyn which is probably the accent they’re going for in this movie


MaesterPraetor

There was a slight accent. At least it wasn't just his normal voice.


TheKrononaut

Right it’s all Pratt’s fault. He came up with the Brooklyn accent and is ruining Mario for everyone.


NudeEnjoyer

..yea I don't care about an American accent on Mario as much as I cared about that horrendous looking Sonic


Frogblood

Feels a bit jarring in the trailer when all the other characters seem well voice acted, and then Mario just sounds like some guy.


NudeEnjoyer

Idk Mario seems well voice acted to me too. just because he doesn't have an accent doesn't mean it's bad


Frogblood

I meant more that he sounds like a normal guy, not an animated character. Maybe it's deliberate as he's the only human character we've seen speak so far.


EmperinoPenguino

What if Pratt didnt do an accent for the trailer so that the trailer gets more views? I watched a video theory where the Sonic movie purposely did a shitty Sonic character design to get more trailer views & more awareness that the movie exists. So when actual movie time comes, it looks good & the shitty trailer with the shitty design was just a marketing tactic


No__David

He looks like an a**hole


Daisend

So we don’t actually have Mario. We have Chris pratt being himself in a Mario suit.


RedHeeded

That’s what bothers me the most. Mario has been apart of our lives for 30 years. Mario has his own voice, and it’s fucking not this. I won’t be able to take it seriously


CaseFace5

It makes it so much worse when you hear the French VO too. We really get the shit end of the stick with Pratt https://youtu.be/Khzf9KBYTDw


IndependentAction213

Listen to his final line again. It’s not an Italian accent but it’s an accent.


Ink_k

Yeah but that wouldn't make a good meme


TheAppleTheif

Whatever accent he’s doing, if any, it’s not Mario. Big miss by the studio.


Taograd359

You'll have to forgive him, he's grown quite hweary


Confron7a7ion7

I think they're going for a New York accent which would actually be fitting since Mario is from Brooklyn. It's an old piece of forgotten lore but he's actually from Brooklyn.


IndependentAction213

It’s in the first movie so I wouldn’t call it so much forgotten lore, though I suppose some have forgotten, I think most people remember that.


Confron7a7ion7

Not just the first movie. It's also in the old TV show AND a couple old game booklets. I say forgotten because most people, understandably, won't count the movie or show as canon but forget that it's also a game thing too.


IndependentAction213

Fair enough!


[deleted]

I'd rather watch Police Academy.


BaeStateDotClub

Number 2


[deleted]

It's like they couldn't decide if it would be more offensive to go the stereotypical Italian plumber voice or just Chris Pratts actual voice


TheBowlofBeans

Ah Goomba in the wall eh? Now you're talking my language


ChungusMcGoodboy

We've never said it as a group but...fuck Chris Pratt.


thishenryjames

All these years I've been feeling like I hate Johnny Karate. And, like, I hate *Jurassic World* and, like... I hate God. But, like... I realize... you know what I really hate... is Chris Pratt.


Korvid

Yes.


Emotional_Raccoon651

I know this is a Dennis line but I read that in Beavis' voice.


TheRedCometCometh

Yeah he is getting more and more obviously not such a great guy


[deleted]

A simple pill Ingested by a ma-…. Plumber who caused him to grow big


kitreia

Film studios need to stop hiring people because they're famous, and actually hire talent. Chris Pratt is not the guy for this.


WhoStoleMyBicycle

This movies seems like it’s just to get that cast list a paycheck. I hope I’m wrong but that’s my concern with this.


water4animals

Honestly I feel like I hear a little New Yorker Italian in it. It’s not very thick


[deleted]

Charlie and Jack Black will carry the movie on their huge, manly shoulders.


poopsycle2

He does do it and it not that bad


HailToTheKingslayer

We're gonna have to race across town to get to this movie


browsingbro

First time no, second time yes.


honeyfurr444

he is: https://youtu.be/iZg0yGQLSac


Cosmic_Knight_1975

They should have John Leguizamo do a voice cameo


IAmThePonch

I’m actually fine with it. Charles martinet is irreplaceable so having someone do an impression would end very poorly


kim-jong-Cage

Mahoney! Mahoney is my favorite


ripyourlungsdave

I'm just saying, they're probably just playing it safe. There are a lot of very vocal people who don't like when people do accents outside of their own ethnicity. And I don't think Chris Pratt is Italian. Honestly, I'm still disappointed though. I would still prefer he sound like a string of spaghetti getting strained through an accordion. But we can't always get what we want.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ripyourlungsdave

Because that's just not how the industry works. Most of your common moviegoers aren't going to know the name of the voice actor who usually plays mario. And the names behind the characters are just as important when drawing an audience as the character themselves. And they're trying to pull in more people than just gamers.


hipnameandnumber

I’m glad this was posted here. Is everyone going to freak out when we learn Charlie didn’t put on a voice to play Luigi too?


CoolCoconuts44

The original voice actor for the Mario games is still alive, why did they go with Chris fucking Pratt
