The show did a really neat job of flipping Steve from the generic teen dickbag to the best character. But they didn’t follow through by emphasizing that older Byers kid is indeed a generic teen dick bag.

It’s sad, but our celebrity culture practically demands that big stars show up in their sweatpants to knock out a few lines for these movies. It then means a press tour can be successfully booked for them to promote it. You’re not going to see Charles Martinet on Jimmy Fallon anytime soon. Hell, even the few times the…
Beware: If this movie turns out fine, it will expose the opinions in this article and most of the comment-thread as even more ignorable than they already are.
Danny DeVito as Mario would be great, but he was born to play Wario. I’m thinking Charlie as Mario, The Waitress as Peach, Mac as Luigi, Frank as Wario, Dennis as Waluigi, and Cricket as Bowser. Dee is, obviously, Birdo.
Do you really want him to do an Italian accent?
Chris Pratt isn’t Italian or a plumber. Neither is Charlie Day and they aren’t even brothers, and neither of them are known for wearing caps or having mustaches.
Donkey Kong isn’t actually a donkey, he’s a fucking monkey, as a human Rogen is descended from monkeys but is that enough to justify him playing a monkey.
Any…
Why is Chris Pratt playing Mario? For the same reason Anya Taylor-Joy is playing Peach.
They’ve streamlined his involvement so much he doesn’t need to actually be in the film, he’s just already blocking cars in Hollywood while dancing in a weirdly tight Lakitu costume.
I’m amazed James Corden isn’t in there somewhere. Oh shit, he’s Yoshi, isn’t he?
Do we want him doing the accent? It doesn’t really matter to me. But I can vouch for Taylor-Joy, who voiced a lead character in the Dark Crystal series.
Okay, I would have been completely down for Pratt if they had also cast Nick Offerman as Bowser in full Ron Swanson/gruff dad mode. That’s how the internet loves him to begin with, tell me it wouldn’t work. Then cast Amy Poehler as Princess Peach, go full reunion, & boom. I mean, you already have Jean-Ralphio as Sonic.
I mean, Pratt has success as a voice actor in a fairly similar sort of thing, the Lego movies. Assuming he can do the accent, it doesn’t seem that unreasonable. I’d pick on Anya Taylor-Joy over him as someone without voice acting bona fides.
We put “The Big Leap” on a short leash based on the promos that made it look like a saccharine, treacly drama. But it was actually charming, funny and had some great characters. The Funkhousers are in.
Go to hell you old bastard!
I think they liked us!
But sir...
Have the Rolling Stones killed
‘Imagine’ is absolutely the worst song ever recorded
Clearly Rolling Stone has no idea what they’re doing as they didn’t even format the list as a 500-page slide show.
I would have sworn they made this list every year if not once a month.
