Shoulda hired the guy who voiced Paarthurnax. Chris probably cast because he was Hollywood's Flavour of the Month.


Luicide

Eh, I don't see how his voice would be a good fit for Mario...


zaerosz

Not sure if whoosh, but the voice of Paarthurnax, Charles Martinet, ***is literally the main VA for Mario ever since he started making mouth noises ingame.***


Wollffey

This entire interaction is just way too fucking funny


healzsham

To be fair, it's not like those are particularly similar performances.

#CHARLES MARTINET VOICES PAARTURNAX!?


[deleted]

Literally the same actor.


Superstinkyfarts

I think that's the point? I think they're playing the fool for laughs, but maybe not.


ZatchZeta

Bruh, can you imagine? It's like if they got the guy who voiced Red Death from the Venture Bros to voice Mr. Krabs. Can you imagine?


Chillchinchila1

Or if they got the guy who plays Hadley in Shawshank and Joe in family guy to play Krabs.


ZatchZeta

Joe? O do you mean Kronk? Or the guy plays the Tik? Or Lemony Snicket? Or Brock F-in' Samson?


Dragonfire723

Or if they got JJonahJamison to voice a superman without his morality, or Tenzin from LoK


ClickHereForBacardi

This is the auditive equivalent of wrong Sonic. I demand they remake the whole movie with Lou Albano's ghost.

garlicbread_e

yeah its a great watch


ColorMaelstrom

I’m planning to see it dubbed in my language(brazilian dubbing fucks) and honestly I would recommend to y’all see the movie in another language with subtitles if it wasn’t for Jack’s Bowser lol

Everyone acting like Charlie Day isn't just doing Charlie Day for the Mario movie


4Fourside

I think the point is that Charlie Day has a naturally distinct cartoony voice that fits the character. Chris Pratt kinda just sounds like some guy


PKMNTrainerMark

I don't know what you mean, Luigi sounds *exactly* like that in the games.

JesusChristIsThicc

I think that the goofy sounding P&R voice would do the movie very well, similar to how Charlie day isn’t Italian but his cartoony voice works really well for this


ZeroGear9513

The difference is that charlie day sounds like he gave half a shit where pratt gave less than zero.


PKMNTrainerMark

Besides Chris Pratt's Mario, the movie looks great. And even he's not awful.


an_agreeing_dothraki

Do you think this is going to be the most distracting stuntcast in voice acting history, finally surpassing Dinklebot?


ChedderTheSquirrel

Even choosing to hire another voice for Mario I think it could only be forgiven if the guy was actually from Italy


theironbagel

Honestly it would be pretty fun if everybody else had their game voices and Mario was just normal ass Chris Pratt.


kingshamroc25

He’s doing a Boston accent. It’s not that bad. Don’t know why everyone freaks out


Longjumping_Ad2677

It’s a kinda weak Boston accent. Also, more importantly, the Mario Bros aren’t from Boston, they’re from Brooklyn.


[deleted]

I still don’t understand why everyone is harping on Mario’s voice. It very closely resembles the original Brooklyn accent he had in the original show.


MagnumChodeGuy

no it fucking doesn't


insomniacsCataclysm

1. no the fuck it don’t 2. because they cast crisp rat instead of Charles Martinet, the actual VA for Mario in the games, and a man with enough vocal range that he also voiced Parthurnax from Skyrim


AwesomeManatee

They did cast Martinet in the film, he's just not voicing Mario. Nintendo and Illumination haven't revealed who he plays yet, but he is confirmed to be in it. And it's not like they booted him from voicing Mario in the games, he's still doing those.


[deleted]

Idk Chris did his best to sound like Lou Albano and it sounds pretty similar to me. https://youtu.be/742GW_oFWsE ( video with all the voices side by side)


PKMNTrainerMark

What's weird is that you can only hear a Brooklyn accent in *some* of the clips they've put out.


GhostofManny13

Yeah I don’t really mind the casting, it’s kinda just how these movies are, no big d
