I watched The Super Mario Bros Movie <\/em>during its opening week with the intent of writing this Easter eggs and references article, only to realize that the movie is nothing but Easter Eggs and references. A thorough roundup would be indistinguishable from a wholesale rundown of the entire movie.<\/p>\n

The plot for The Super Mario Bros Movie<\/em> is paper-thin. Narratively, the characters are static bordering on inert; there\u2019s no arc or growth to any of them. It\u2019s just one action set piece to the next; your enjoyment is intimately tied to your pre-existing knowledge of these characters and your ability to recognize a parade of homages to Nintendo history.<\/p>\n

It is, in other words, narratively identical to a Mario 2D platformer. Critics are complaining about the lack of characterization<\/span> and depth in the Mario movie. But to paraphrase Gertrude Stein, there is no \u201cthere\u201d there. We needn\u2019t be so harsh.<\/p>\n

Unlike HBO\u2019s The Last of Us<\/em>, which took its game\u2019s cinematic aspirations to their logical conclusion<\/span>, the Mario franchise\u2019s brilliance has never been the Plot; it\u2019s been the gameplay. It\u2019s been that perfect blend of inventive, instructive level design and hairpin controls. <\/p>\n

Take that away, and we\u2019re left with a reel of Easter eggs, which is exactly how this movie was intended. Here are 20 of the best ones that we spotted. Which one was your favorite?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
