Title: the paper rad mario movie Post by: thecatamites on November 17, 2009, 02:49:02 PM I dunno if you guys have seen this but it's really cool and seems pretty close to the ~indie vidcon aesthetic~ heh. Basically it's a short movie based on a hacked Super Mario Bros cartridge in which a vaguely sentient mario sprite must navigate an old glitched videogame world although that's a really awful description. Starts slow but give it a shot?? More info here http://www.paperrad.org/info/art/mariomovie.html (http://www.paperrad.org/info/art/mariomovie.html)

I've seen this movie before, but I think the pacing is a bit poor. There are fairly long stretches where nothing happens at all.

Yeah, I'll second that. I enjoyed it, and it's a great concept, but it would have been twice as good if it has been half as long. Title: Re: the paper rad mario movie Post by: C.A. Silbereisen on November 18, 2009, 11:02:18 AM I guess they were trying to capture a "lonely" atmosphere. Problem is, that doesn't work too well with glitched-up Super Mario Bros. graphics. :D
