Damn it Bob, it took me all of 3 minutes to realise you were pulling an April Fools joke.
I think it was about the point that he said Ke$ha was Peach that I realized what day it was.
Why is everyone complaining? "oh I would've rather have seen a real review whine whine whine."
C'mon people, it's April Fool's day! This is the one day a year when an otherwise legitimate movie reviewer can "prank" his watchers. The Escapist Community needs to loosen up some.
I thought it was pretty funny, although I do admit I was FURIOUS when he said that The Situation was gonna be playing Mario. This was before I realized it was a joke, but I'd just had a conversation last night with my roommate about the ridiculous shit Hollywood is doing and how apparently every writer is strapped for good ideas. With that conversation in mind I was willing to believe anything.
Although, a more gritty, re-imagination of the Mario World would be highly welcome if Hollywood ever felt the desire to do so.
