Blog:(WIP) Super Smash Bros. The Movie (Fake Film)

"Is this a masterpiece? No, it's more than a masterpiece, it's the Citizen Kane of animated movies. There isn't single movie out there that deserves to be recommended even more than Super Smash Bros. The Movie, it's such a gem that it would honestly be a disservice for me to spoil anything that happened in the movie."

Why It Rocks
UNDER CONSTRUCTION…
 * 1) The voice acting is brilliant and amazing thanks to the cast reprising their roles from the games, and unlike most other video game adaptions, no stunt casting used for any of the characters.
 * 2) All of the characters, in the their own way, are all likable and unique form each other:
 * 3) *Mario and Luigi are still the same likable plumbers that they were in every piece of media that they have been portrayed in since the very beginning.
 * 4) *Taboo is an awesome villain, who is generally threatening and has awesome motives for why he wants to wipeout the earth.
 * 5) The comedy is absolutely excellent, with many scenes in the movie being unforgettable and hilarious, such as:
 * 6) *Luigi and Pikachu screaming when they find each other.
 * 7) *The scene where Link touches a Goomba.
 * 8) *The usage of the iconic Jigglypuff microphone gag from the Pokémon anime, which is used in the scene where Jigglypuff tries to sing to Luigi, but ends up causing him and the rest of the fighters in the arena to fall asleep.
 * 9) Amazing musical score from John Debney, who did a fantastic job with trying to make the music match the theme that the movie goes for.
 * 10) *Aside from the musical scores and game songs, there are a handful of good song selections in this movie, such as "We Are The Champions" by Queen, "Total Eclipse of the Heart" by Bonnie Tyler and "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing" by Aerosmith.
 * 11) The fighting scenes are awesome, filled with breathtaking effects and the exciting yet consistent tone of them are something you’d not expect in a Smash film.
 * 12) Pop culture references are present here, but they're used efficiently to the point where they are memorable and even funny at times, some examples include:
 * 13) *Kirby riding on his warp star throughout the galaxy, a scene that parodies the stargate scene in 2001: A Space Odyssey.
 * 14) It has it's fair share of really emotional moments, such as the scene during the final hours where Kirby attempts sacrifice his life to save the earth from the powerful blow that Taboo set to destroy the planet, the song "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing" by Aerosmith plays during the scene, which makes it even more emotional.
 * 15) The ending that involves all of the characters starring at the sunset is very tear-jerking and emotional, and it's a lovely recreation of the ending scene in Subspace Emissary, it even plays the Super Smash Bros. Brawl theme song during it too.

Bad Qualities
UNDER CONSTRUCTION…
 * 1) It can rely way too much on nostalgia pandering for the most part, as there are a lot of moments that are either references to the different franchises' respective source materials, or are just recreations of various scenes from Subspace Emissary in mh:awesomegames:Super Smash Bros. Brawl and World of Light in mh:awesomegames:Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, like the scene where Kirby escapes from Taboo's clutches, a scene that is similar to Kirby escaping from Galeem in World of Light, and the ending, which is a recreation of the end scene in Subspace Emissary with the characters staring at the sunset by a cliff, despite the aforementioned scene being beautiful and tear-jerking.
 * 2) It rehashes elements from Avengers: Infinity War and mh:awesomegames:Saints Row IV.
 * 3) *The movie uses the same concept as Infinity War, since it's ultimate culmination of everything that has happened in all the different franchises that have been included in the Super Smash Bros. games since the very first one, although, it does try to add something new to the table rather than rehash the same story.
 * 4) *The final act is a bit too similar to the opening of mh:awesomegames:Saints Row IV, since it involves the Super Smash Bros. gang discovering Taboo's hideout and defeating him in epic battle, but at the last second when he dies, he sets of the powerful gun that was set in space so it could hit earth and wipeout all humanity and animals that live there. It also involves Kirby sacrificing his life to stop the powerful beam, much like how The Boss in mh:awesomegames:Saints Row IV sacrifices his life to stop the nuke that Cyrus Temple set to target Washington.
 * 5) Plot hole: How did Kirby survive the beam that Taboo shot when he hit it with his warp star? Realistically, he would of died when the explosion happened, as he was very close to the warp star when it got blown up by Taboo's beam.

The Movie was met with critical acclaim from critics, audiences and fans of the games and franchises shown in the movie, the film has a certified "fresh" rating of 100% with the audience score being the same thing, on Metacritic, the film has a score of 99 out of 100, indicating "universal acclaim" with the audience score being 10, also indicating "universal acclaim".
