Super Mario: Earth
(Note: Because of Mario and Luigi’s strong Italian accents, add an “a” to every third word they speak. Example: “That’sa the third timea this week”. Or something like that.)
Mario chased Luigi across a vast world of pipes as Luigi gained the last star he required to win the match against Mario.
“That’s the third time this week!” exclaimed the real Mario in disappointment. Mario and Luigi were playing Mario versus Luigi on their Nintendo DS’.
“This game is terribly unrealistic,” stated Mario in his strong (but stereotypical) Italian accent.
Luigi just smirked. Though he had always taken a backseat to his older brother Mario in the real Mushroom Kingdom, he greatly outshined him in video games.
“Don’t be mad at me, Mario. You’re still the best at the real thing. No one can save the Mushroom Kingdom as well as you” Luigi said, consoling Mario, but secretly reveling in his victory.
“I suppose you’re right,” Mario sighed, convinced, “But I just can’t shake the feeling that I’m getting too old for this”.
“I miss the glory days, going into a castle, trying to save the princess, finding out it’s just Toad again…”, Mario sighed.
As Mario said this, a particular something caught the corner of his eye. A single yellow and orange mushroom crept up from a tree trunk, gaining Mario’s immediate attention.
“Mama-mia! A super mushroom!”, Mario yelled, clearly excited.
Mario leaped off of the park bench quickly jumping on top of the mushroom, consuming it.
“Hehe! I got it!”, Mario said as he got up.
Mario noticed something strange. This mushroom did not turn him into Super Mario.
“Something isn’t right here.”, Mario said, cautiously, “I don’t think that was a super mushroom”.
As he was saying this, the world around him greatly changed. It was truly not a super mushroom he had consumed. The world started to look a lot more like the Mushroom Kingdom. Trashcans looked like pipes, and people all over looked like the fungal Goomba.
Mario, quickly loosing his grasp on reality, began to perceive his hallucinations as the real thing. He spotted a “pipe”, and ambitiously jumped it. The pipe, of course, was no more than an ordinary trash can, but that made no difference to Mario. He jumped out, scanning his surroundings for any threats.
Meanwhile, back at the apartment, Luigi began to show some concern for his older brother. It had been almost three hours now.
“It’s been almost three hours…”, Luigi said to himself.
“Mario’s a responsible man, he’s perfectly alright by himself, he could just be on a very long walk…”
Luigi tried to convince himself that nothing was wrong. This was useless, though, as Luigi knew deep inside himself that something had gone wrong. Very wrong.
Mario continued to scan his surroundings, spotting a lone “Goomba” near a shopping center. In actuality, this was no Goomba. It was Mario and Luigi’s boss from their workplace, “Plumber’s Unlimited”. But to Mario, it was a Goomba all the same.
Now quite determined, Mario rushed headlong into battle. This person - “Goomba” would not see the light of the next day.
“Mario?”, Luigi yelled as he searched for his older brother. He was now quite concerned.
“Maaaarrrrio??”
Luigi spotted Mario. The outlook was not good. He was running straight for their boss, on a collision course.
“Yahoo!!”, Mario cried out as he gained flight.
Their boss, now aware of Mario’s sudden… arrival, froze. Before the boss could even flinch, Mario tackled him to the ground. He stood absolutely no chance.
“MARRRIO!!”, Luigi screamed as he looked on.
He rushed to the scene. Mario and the boss were flat on the concrete, immobile.
The boss started, “MARRRIO!!”
Mario, now regaining his grasp on reality, realized what he had just done. Luigi just stared at him.
“You, and your green brother, Lorenzo”, the boss began.
Luigi corrected him, “Actually, it’s uh, Luigi, si-“
“Whatever!”, the boss interjected as Luigi looked at him in horror, “You… Are… FIRED!!”
Luigi offered his boss a hand, which he was quick to decline. Mario just sat at the concrete, scolding himself. In a huff, the boss quickly walked away.
Luigi helped Mario up, giving him an evil look as they returned back to their apartment, to start over once again.
Alright, my first real draft of the movie I'm planning. With special effects and stuff, this should be flawless.
I'm aiming for a comedy/tragic hero kind of thing. Yeah.
Also, know that this is not the script, that comes later. Oh, yeah, and a double space usually means a time lapse/ scene change. And the dialogue will definitely be improved, believe me.
Oh, and I need suggestions for the name. Super Mario: Earth kind of sucks.
