Chris Pratt and Charlie Day on the Super Mario Bros. Legacy, Controversy, Sequels, and More
Germain Lussier, io9: So we are all of an age where Nintendo was a really big deal growing up. I’m wondering what were each of your first experiences and memories of these characters? Was it playingDonkey Kongthat I put together that that was Mario and Donkey Kong. That you kind of after the fact realized it. But what I remember is my set came with a double [game]. It was both. You could play either one and it was great. I played them both as much as I possibly could.So good.
You have to have some kind of reach. The fact that this hasn’t been a major motion picture recently was a really great thing. And you’re right, there’s not that much familiarity beyond just what their costumes look like and a handful of catchphrases that you might hear. And knowing that it was Illumination, I was like, “Boy, I think this is destined to be a home run.” So I was really, really grateful to be a part of it.
