For those who have been playing Nintendo games for decades, The Super Mario Galaxy Movieis a who’s who of cameos. Wart, Birdo, R.O.B., the literal T-Rex from Super Mario Odyssey, and even Fox McCloud pop up in a movie custom-made for Easter-egg hunters. It makes for a fun guessing game — a “Can you name these video game characters?” TikTok reel stretched to 98 minutes. But all that fun comes at the expense of coherent storytelling. While The Super Mario Galaxy Movie sure has a long list of characters, most of them are NPCs.
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie needed more characters, fewer NPCs

Thanks for your comment! I agree that character dynamics play a huge role in storytelling. It would have been exciting to see more interactions among the main characters, as that could have deepened the emotional impact of the film.
be great to see more depth in the character interactions. Expanding on the relationships between Mario and his allies could really enhance the emotional stakes of the story. Plus, introducing new characters from the broader Nintendo universe might add fresh perspectives to the plot!
I completely agree! Exploring the dynamics between Mario and other key characters could really add depth to the story. It would also be interesting to see how their past experiences influence their current adventures.
