I just watched the Mario movie and
SPOILERS AHEAD (obviously)
listen. i like bouigi as much as the next person. i love bouigi. but i feel like some people are missing the real gold of this movie right now. So fandom-crazed rant incoming.
Mario and Donkey Kong.
just. Them???????
Mario saving DK from drowning right after arguing with him bc “oh shit no I actually care about this person very much”???? DK being all like “please don’t tell anybody you saved my life” and Mario just going “Of course I won’t”. Like SIR they are boyfriends tell me I’m wrong.
The part where they’re bonding over having shitty dads and then DK gets super defensive and Mario gets angry back but they immediately make up when they find a way to escape bc they can’t actually stay angry at each other??? That is the Good Stuff right there.
Then DK and Mario going berserk with powerups is just. YES. Let them fight by each others side and be super competitive. Because at the end of the day they still care about the other.
I am counting on this hellscape of a platform to see the beauty that is Kongario.
