I just don't understand that casting for the Mario movie. A couple make sense, but they could have done better than Seth Rogan, and Chris Pratt. Christ, hire on ProZD, he does an incredible Mario voice that's very close to the original.
I think they went with Chris Pratt specifically because they didn't want to go with the original voice. It sounds like the tone is gonna be very conversational, very chatty, and no-one is gonna sit down for an hour and a half of "It's-a time to-a save-a the princess!" in a mock-italian falsetto voice. Charles Martinet is in the movie, it's not like they forgot about him. They just needed to help the flow of dialogue in the movie, and the game voices aren't conducive to a big Hollywood production.

Like I'd be down for Mario short films with Charles' voice-acting, but an entire Hollywood movie? Something like this was bound to happen. I'm not a fan of Chris Pratt as Mario either, but Charlie Day and Jack Black? Fuck yeah.
