'''''The Super Mario Bros. Movie''''' is an animated movie produced by [[Nintendo]] in collaboration with [[Universal Pictures]] and [[Illumination]], co-produced by ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise creator [[Shigeru Miyamoto]] and Illumination co-founder [[Chris Meledandri]]. It was first announced during a financial briefing on January 31, 2018, and was released on April 5, 2023 in North America and many other regions, on April 28, 2023 in Japan, and on various other dates in April in other parts of the world (May 26, 2023 in the case of Poland).<ref name=April5/><ref name=TwitterApril25>{{cite|author=@NintendoAmerica|date=April 25, 2022|url=x.com/NintendoAmerica/status/1518756878251089921|title=This is Miyamoto. After consulting with Chris-san, my partner at Illumination on the Super Mario Bros. film, we decided to move the global release to Spring 2023–April 28 in Japan and April 7 in North America. My deepest apologies but I promise it will be well worth the wait.|publisher=X|accessdate=April 25, 2022}}</ref> It is the third feature film to be based on ''Super Mario'', following the Japan-only animated film ''[[Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen!]]'' (1986) and the largely unsuccessful ''[[Super Mario Bros. (film)|Super Mario Bros.]]'' live-action film (1993).

==Plot==
[[File:Bowser stealing the star TSMBM.png|g|250px|upright=1.1|left|thumb|A triumphant Bowser with the penguins' Super Star]]
The evil [[Koopa (species)|Koopa]] king [[Bowser]], accompanied by his assistant [[Kamek]] and the rest of his [[Bowser's Minions|army]], invades the [[Snow Kingdom (The Super Mario Bros. Movie)|Snow Kingdom]] using his [[Bowser's Castle#The Super Mario Bros. Movie|massive castle ship]]. The [[penguin]] inhabitants, led by [[Penguin King|their brave king]], fight to defend their home by throwing [[snowball]]s, but their attacks are completely ineffective against Bowser, leading to them being easily defeated and captured. Bowser then burns their palace down with his [[Fire Breath|fire breath]] and steals their most prized possession, a powerful [[Super Star]].

Meanwhile, in [[New York City]], the Italian-American brothers [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] have started [[Super Mario Bros. Plumbing]], a small plumbing business servicing the boroughs of [[Brooklyn]] and [[List of implied locations#Queens|Queens]]. At the [[Punch-Out Pizzeria]], the brothers proudly watch the commercial for the business that they spent their life savings to produce, but they then encounter their antagonistic former boss [[Foreman Spike|Spike]], who derides them for leaving him to start their own business. Undeterred, Mario and Luigi go to do their first plumbing job at a [[BrKLnCouple|Brooklyn couple]]'s house, but the interference of the couple's dog [[Francis (The Super Mario Bros. Movie)|Francis]] results in the destruction of their bathroom instead. The brothers return home for dinner with [[Mario and Luigi's family|their family]], most of whom mock their plumbing business and commercial, with only [[Mama Mario|their mother]] being supportive of them. Mario becomes disheartened after being criticized by [[Papa Mario|his father]] in particular, but after he and Luigi see a newscast reporting about a significant leak in manholes throughout the Brooklyn streets, Mario promptly sees this as an opportunity for them to prove themselves. They go to fix the broken water main, only to fail and crash through a brick wall.

[[File:TSMBM warp zone.png|g|250px|upright=1.1|left|thumb|Mario and Luigi get transported to the Warp Zone]]
While exploring the sewers, they arrive in a large room filled with pipes and investigate a [[Mysterious pipe|large green one]], which sucks them into the [[Warp Zone]]. There, the two brothers are separated, with each one going through a different [[Warp Pipe]]. Mario ends up in a forest filled with large mushrooms, where he meets with the adventurous [[Toad]], who informs him that he has arrived in the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] and that his brother has landed in the [[Dark Land]]s, which are under the control of the evil Bowser. Toad then decides to bring Mario to the kingdom's ruler, [[Princess Peach]], who he believes can help Mario save Luigi. Meanwhile, Luigi briefly searches for Mario in the Dark Lands, where he is chased by a swarm of [[Dry Bones]] and tries to escape by hiding in an abandoned [[castle]], only to end up being captured by a group of [[Shy Guy]]s led by a [[Snifit]].

Toad and Mario traverse the kingdom's town and reach [[Peach's Castle]]. When the [[Toad (species)|Toad]] guards outside the door refuse to let them in, Toad distracts them to let Mario sneak in, but he is then chased by the other guards. In the throne room, Princess Peach holds a council with many Toads, where the [[Toad General]] describes Bowser's recent actions and that he is headed towards the Mushroom Kingdom, claiming that his possession of the Super Star makes their destruction inevitable. The princess, however, refuses to give up and reveals her plan to defeat Bowser by traveling to the [[Donkey Kong Island|Jungle Kingdom]] to form an alliance with the [[Kong]]s, despite the fact that their king usually declines alliances. The princess and Mario meet shortly afterward, with the former being surprised to encounter another human. After hearing Mario's plight and seeing how determined he is to save his brother, Peach tests his skill with a [[Training Course (The Super Mario Bros. Movie)|training course]] full of obstacles and agrees to take him with her if he can finish it. After demonstrating her own skills, she then explains that he can clear the course using [[List of power-ups|power-ups]] such as [[Super Mushroom]]s, which make Mario [[Super Mario (form)|bigger and stronger]] (which he reluctantly agrees to do despite his hatred of mushrooms). Mario fails to complete the course on many attempts, but eventually comes close enough that Peach takes him along anyway.

Meanwhile, Bowser holds a banquet for his army in his throne room in celebration of their recent conquest and seizing of the Super Star. During this, Bowser reveals to the soldiers in attendance that he is deeply infatuated with Princess Peach, and that his motive for acquiring the Star was to impress her and ask for her hand in marriage, much to their confusion. He then states that if she refuses, he will use the Super Star to demolish her kingdom, to the elation of the entire Koopa army. During this time, Luigi is taken into a [[Shy Guy balloon|balloon]] by the Shy Guys that captured him, where he recalls a moment in [[Baby Luigi|his]] and [[Baby Mario|Mario's infancy]] when Mario stood up to protect his brother from a bully who was abusing him. 

[[File:A pretty incredible view - TSMBM.png|g|250px|upright=1.1|thumb|Mario, Peach, and Toad on their journey]]
In the morning, Mario and Peach begin their journey to the Jungle Kingdom, with Toad joining as well due to his desire to protect the princess. Together, they travel through several locales, such as the [[Bob-omb Battlefield]], the [[Waterfall Area]], the [[Sand Kingdom|Desert Area]], [[Yoshi's Island (location)|Yoshi's Island]], and the [[Rock-Candy Mines|High Cliffs]], on their way to the Jungle Kingdom. At one point in their trek, the trio sets up camp in the [[Fire Flower Fields]], where Peach shares her backstory: she first arrived in the Mushroom Kingdom by walking through a Warp Pipe as a [[Baby Peach|baby]], then was taken in by the Toads and eventually crowned as their princess once she was ready. However, she has no memory of anything before her arrival in the Mushroom Kingdom, including where she was originally from. This leads Mario to speculate that Peach may be from the same world as him, to which Peach remarks that the universe is huge and contains many galaxies.

Meanwhile, Bowser plays on his piano, singing [[Peaches|a song]] expressing his obsessive love for Peach, before Kamek interrupts him to inform him about Mario and his association with Peach. This causes Bowser to see Mario as a potential rival for the princess's affection. When Luigi is brought before Bowser, the Koopa king interrogates him about Mario. Luigi resists at first, but eventually admits his relation to Mario after Bowser loses his patience and begins pulling on his mustache. Luigi is then placed in a cage above a pit of [[lava]], where others, such as the penguins and a demented [[Lumalee]], have also been caged.

Upon arriving at the Jungle Kingdom, the heroes are transported to the palace by [[Driver (The Super Mario Bros. Movie)|a Kong]] driving a [[kart]]. At the palace, Peach consults the Kongs' king, [[Cranky Kong]], and asks for his [[Kong army]] to support them in fighting Bowser. He initially refuses to join Peach's cause, but when Mario stands up to him, he agrees to help on the condition that Mario defeats his son [[Donkey Kong]] in a duel at the [[Great Ring of Kong]], which Mario accepts despite Peach's disapproval. During the fight, Mario initially struggles against Donkey Kong's immense strength, so he attempts to use power-ups from the several [[? Block|Question Block]]s set around the arena to gain an advantage. However, he accidentally eats a [[Mini Mushroom|blue mushroom]] under the assumption that it was a Super Mushroom and is [[Mini Mario (form)|shrunken down]] and flicked away by Donkey Kong. He then tries to use a [[Fire Flower]], but Donkey Kong snuffs it out. Mario continues to get pummeled, but remains persistent. Peach then encourages him to hit another block, which contains a power-up that turns him into [[Cat Mario]]. With his new speed, agility, and claws, Mario is able to dodge all of Donkey Kong's attacks and scratch him until he is ultimately defeated, at which point Cranky Kong reluctantly agrees to assist the heroes.

[[File:DonkeyKongMovieStadium2.png|250px|upright=1.1|left|thumb|Mario being easily overpowered by Donkey Kong]]
At Donkey Kong's home, Peach congratulates Mario for his tenacity, while Donkey Kong is frustrated with Mario and claims to have let him win. Cranky suggests that they use karts to quickly return to the Mushroom Kingdom via a shortcut so that they can ambush Bowser and his forces during their attack. In a [[Kart workshop|large garage]], Mario, Peach, and Toad each create their own karts, and they drive alongside the Kongs back to the Mushroom Kingdom through a [[secret passage]] that leads to [[Rainbow Road]]. On the way back, Peach begins questioning Mario about the world he originates from and decides to visit Brooklyn sometime.

[[File:TSMBM Rainbow Road.png|g|250px|upright=1.1|thumb|Mario driving on Rainbow Road]]
Meanwhile, Bowser is practicing his marriage proposal to Peach, with Kamek taking her place. However, they are interrupted by the [[Koopa General]], who has discovered the heroes' plan and reports it to Bowser. At this, Bowser decides to have his army use karts of their own to ambush the heroes as they traverse Rainbow Road, with the Koopa General himself chasing Mario with a bulldozer. During the chase, Mario's kart is destroyed, but he manages to hijack another while Peach saves Toad from falling off the road. After losing his second kart, Mario then moves to Donkey Kong's kart, and DK fires one of his kart's [[Rocket Barrel]]s to explode on the bulldozer. Infuriated, the Koopa General locks himself in his winged, spiky [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Blue Shell]] and crashes into Mario and Donkey Kong, destroying the latter's kart and a part of the road. The two plummet to the ocean below, much to Peach, Toad, and Cranky's despair, and all of the Kongs besides Donkey Kong are captured and sent to Bowser's dungeons. After landing in the ocean, Mario saves Donkey Kong from drowning, but both are then devoured whole by a large [[Maw-Ray]]. 

Peach and Toad manage to make it back to the Mushroom Kingdom, where Peach warns the citizens of Bowser's imminent arrival. She orders the Toads in the town and the castle to evacuate while she holds off Bowser, but Toad decides to stay at the princess's side instead of leaving, wanting to stay true to his desire to protect her. Bowser then arrives in the Mushroom Kingdom aboard his ship and finally proposes to marry Peach. She initially rejects him, but after he has Kamek torture Toad, she reluctantly agrees to the marriage on the condition that Bowser does not harm her subjects. Kamek then informs all of Bowser's prisoners that they are "invited" to Bowser and Peach's royal wedding to be ritualistically sacrificed, much to their horror (and Lumalee's delight). Meanwhile, Mario and Donkey Kong, trapped inside the Maw-Ray's stomach, despair over their situation. After the two attempt to bond over their issues with their respective fathers, an argument ensues and Donkey Kong begins thrashing around the stomach, causing the Maw-Ray to burp and allowing them to find Donkey Kong's ruined kart. They then use its last Rocket Barrel to escape the Maw-Ray's stomach and fly back to the Mushroom Kingdom, hurrying to Peach and Bowser's wedding.

[[File:Tanooki Mario and Luigi reunite - TSMBM.png|thumb|250px|upright=1.1|left|Mario and Luigi reunite]]
At the wedding, Bowser reveals that he intends to execute all of his prisoners by burning them in lava in Peach's honor. However, Peach punches out Kamek and reveals an [[Ice Flower]] that Toad smuggled into her bouquet, with which she freezes Bowser and the winch lowering the prisoners before holding down his army. During this, Mario and Donkey Kong arrive, but they are then shot down by a [[Bullet Bill]], forcing them to fight through Bowser's minions in the town. Mario uses a Super Mushroom while Donkey Kong uses a Fire Flower, but both end up losing their power-ups in the fight. Mario then finds a [[Super Leaf]], allowing him to fly up to Bowser's ship as [[Tanooki Mario]]. While fighting at the wedding, Peach uses a spear to light [[King Bob-omb]]'s fuse, causing him to explode - the explosion blows her back and causes her to lose her [[Ice Mario|ice power]] before she can re-freeze the winch, with Luigi's cage touching the lava and having its bottom part burned off. However, before the prisoners can be burned, Donkey Kong arrives and manages to stop the winch with his own strength, making Cranky proud. Luigi loses his grip and falls out of his cage towards the lava, but Mario saves him with his flight, and the two rejoice at being reunited.

[[File:TSMBM Banzai Bill.png|g|250px|upright=1.1|thumb|A livid Bomber Bill after Tanooki Mario smacks its eye with his tail]]
Enraged, Bowser manages to break free from the ice and orders for a [[Banzai Bill|Bomber Bill]] to be launched to annihilate the Mushroom Kingdom and everyone in it. The Bomber Bill is fired, but before it can hit Peach's Castle, Mario manages to knock it off course by striking one of its eyes with his suit's tail. Angered by this, the Bomber Bill chases Mario instead, and he leads it through the forest and into the pipe through which he first entered the Mushroom Kingdom. However, when the Bomber Bill explodes in the Warp Zone, this causes everyone and everything in the surrounding area to be sucked into the pipe and transported to Brooklyn, with Bowser's ship bursting out and landing in the middle of the street, much to the shock of Spike and other citizens.

[[File:TSMBM Invincible Mario and Luigi.jpg|thumb|250px|upright=1.1|left|Mario and Luigi powered up by the Super Star]]
The Super Star lands in front of Mario, but a furious Bowser stops him from getting it and attacks him to within an inch of his life, while blaming him for his wedding being ruined. Bowser then uses his tail to smack Mario into the Punch-Out Pizzeria. Discouraged, Mario ends up hiding in the pizzeria as Bowser taunts him, and despite their best efforts to stop them, Peach and Donkey Kong are both overpowered by Bowser and his army. However, after seeing a damaged television play the Super Mario Bros. Plumbing commercial, Mario regains his resolve and stands up to Bowser, stopping him from killing Donkey Kong. Peach then manages to kick the Super Star away from Bowser, allowing Mario to go after it. Bowser tries to incinerate him with his fire breath, but Luigi defends him with a manhole cover, allowing them both to obtain the Star and become [[Invincible Mario|invincible]] just in time. 

Using the Star's powers, the Mario brothers work together to defeat Bowser and his entire army. Upon his defeat, Bowser is force-fed a blue mushroom by Peach and shrunk to miniature size, allowing Toad to imprison him in a jar. In the end, the Mario brothers and their new friends from the Mushroom Kingdom are celebrated and hailed as heroes by the residents of Brooklyn, including Spike and the brothers' parents, with the father now proud of the brothers' heroics. The story concludes with the brothers relocating to the Mushroom Kingdom, taking their plumbing business with them.

[[File:Hurrah for our heroes, the Super Mario Brothers! - TSMBM.png|g|250px|upright=1.1|thumb|The Mario brothers, delighted at the entirety of Brooklyn cheering for them]]
Before the credits begin, Lumalee appears and [[Fourth wall|tells the audience]] that since the film is over, all that is left is them and the "infinite void", before cheerfully playing the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' [[Ground Theme (Super Mario Bros.)|Ground Theme]] on a saxophone to start off the [[List of The Super Mario Bros. Movie staff|end credits]] music. 

In a mid-credits scene, Bowser is shown singing another verse of his love song while imprisoned in a cage in Peach's Castle, but a Toad guard interrupts and silences him, closing the door on him as he complains. In a post-credits scene, a [[Yoshi's Egg]] that was originally given as a wedding gift for Bowser and Peach is seen, unscathed, in the Brooklyn sewers. The egg suddenly begins to hatch as the film cuts to black, followed by a shout of "[[Yoshi]]!" being heard.

[[File:Mario Movie Teaser Poster.jpg|thumb|Teaser poster of the film featuring its original release date.]]
Reports on the supposed existence of an animated ''Super Mario'' film circulated as early as November 24, 2014, following the {{wp|Sony Pictures hack}}, when it was revealed in leaked emails sent by {{wp|Avi Arad}}, {{wp|Amy Pascal}}, {{wp|Tom Rothman}}, and Michelle Raimo Kouyate that {{wp|Sony Pictures Animation}} was trying to secure the film rights to ''Super Mario'' for years, though Arad has denied that such a deal was made.<ref>{{cite|author=Vary, A.

Movie Deal Not Finalized, Movie Could Come in 2020|publisher=Screen Rant|accessdate=May 12, 2024}}.</ref> By the end of January 2018, Nintendo affirmed that the film would indeed be moving forward, having closed a deal with [[Illumination]].<ref>{{cite|author=Blair, Gavin J.|date=January 31, 2018|url=hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/mario-movie-be-produced-by-nintendos-shigeru-miyamoto-illumination-1080822|title='Mario' Movie to Be Produced by Nintendo and Illumination|publisher={{wp|The Hollywood Reporter}}|accessdate=January 31, 2018}}</ref> This marked Illumination's first film based on an existing intellectual property to not be an adaptation of a {{wp|Dr. Seuss}} book.

Several days after the deal was made, [[Shigeru Miyamoto]] explained why Illumination was chosen for the project over other animation companies, saying he had been interested in producing an animated film for quite some time and, contrary to popular belief, making a movie and making a game are completely different procedures. Miyamoto wanted someone with experience in the film industry to co-produce the film, and after talking with numerous directors and producers, he was introduced to Illumination through {{wp|Universal Parks & Resorts}}, with whom Nintendo was making [[Super Nintendo World|a theme park]]. Miyamoto also stated that when he began talks with [[Chris Meledandri]], the latter read numerous interviews about him and felt that they had a similar approach in creation. Miyamoto described Meledandri as having experience in the field of animation beyond Illumination, having been executive producer of ''{{wp|Ice Age (2002 film)|Ice Age}}'' and other animated projects for {{wp|20th Century Fox}}, as well as being "extremely cost-conscious and time-conscious in his quest to make successful movies." Miyamoto also mentioned that Nintendo and Illumination had mutually agreed to call the deal off if neither company could come up with an interesting premise, but also noted that the screenplay had been hashed out a number of times and discussions were in progression, hoping to provide more information once the schedule had been ironed out.<ref>{{cite|author=Minotti, Mike|date=January 9, 2018|url=venturebeat.com/2018/02/09/nintendos-miyamoto-explains-how-illumination-won-mario-movie-rights|title=Nintendo's Miyamoto explains how Illumination won Mario movie rights|publisher={{wp|VentureBeat}}|accessdate=January 9, 2018}}</ref> Miyamoto would later state in early 2020 that the idea for the film came from bringing Nintendo's legacy content to services such as the [[Virtual Console]]; such transitions took time for the company, and Miyamoto viewed that as an opportunity to develop Nintendo's content business even further by combining its long-beloved software with video assets.<ref>{{cite|author=Olsen, Mathew|date=February 3, 2020|url=usgamer.net/articles/miyamoto-explains-how-the-virtual-console-convinced-nintendo-to-make-a-new-mario-movie|title=The Virtual Console Convinced Nintendo to Make a New Mario Movie|publisher={{wp|USGamer}}|accessdate=February 3, 2020}}</ref>

On November 6, 2018, Meledandri said that he was glad the 1993 film [[Super Mario Bros. (film)|''Super Mario Bros.'']] was not well-received, citing the primary reason being that the producers did not involve Nintendo, whereas Illumination was "embracing" Miyamoto and keeping him "front and center" in the film's creation. He said that Illumination's ''Super Mario'' film was in "priority development," and hoped that it would be released by 2022. Meledandri also noted that developing a ''Super Mario'' film is "an ambitious task," citing the challenge of adding depth to ''Super Mario'' that would simultaneously compromise generations of fans and feel organic to its iconography as well as supporting a three-act structure.<ref>{{cite|author=Lang, B.|date=November 6, 2018|url=variety.com/2018/film/news/super-mario-bros-animated-movie-illumination-1203021006|title=Inside Illumination's Plans for Animated 'Super Mario Bros.'

==Differences from the video games==
*The characters have various significant characterization differences compared to their original video game counterparts, most notably [[Mario]], [[Princess Peach]], [[Donkey Kong]], and [[Lumalee]].
*[[Koopa Troopa]]s and [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s wear helmets and carry weapons.
*Mario's outfit is more detailed than usual; his shoes have laces on them and there is a front pocket on his overalls. In addition, the emblem on his cap is smaller.
**Similarly, many other characters, most notably Luigi, Peach, and Bowser, have more detailed designs than usual.
*Just like in the DIC cartoons and the 1993 film, Mario and Luigi have a Brooklyn accent, though they do use Italian accents in their plumbing commercial.
*[[Foreman Spike|Spike]] wears an outfit not seen in prior media, wearing a cyan overshirt and cap, with the latter having "Wrecking Crew" text written upon it. He is also noticeably larger in build than Mario (Luigi describes him as "three times [Mario's] size"), unlike in ''[[Wrecking Crew]]'', where their builds are quite similar.
*[[Pauline]] acts as the mayor of [[New York City]] instead of [[Metro Kingdom|New Donk City]].
*[[Coin]]s in the film do not appear naturally floating throughout the Mushroom Kingdom like they do in the games. Instead, they are only seen obtainable by punching [[Coin Block]]s located in [[Toad Town]].
*[[Spiny|Spinies]] are depicted with visible mouths and teeth.
*The film uses a different origin story for Mario and [[Luigi]] from the one depicted in the ''[[Yoshi's Island (series)|Yoshi's Island]]'' series onwards, being Brooklyn natives like in early media predating the series, including the original ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'' arcade game, the [[DIC Entertainment|DIC cartoons]], and the [[Super Mario Bros. (film)|1993 film]].
*Peach's shoes are pink instead of red.
*[[Fire Mario|Fire Peach]] is not depicted with a ponytail. This design would later be used in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]''.
*Peach is shown to have come to the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] as a baby, when the Toads found and raised her and later crowned her their princess, instead of being born into her position as implied by ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', and ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]''.
*A society of generic [[Kong]]s live in the Jungle Kingdom.
*[[Donkey Kong Island]] is a kingdom referred to as the Jungle Kingdom, ruled by [[Cranky Kong]] with [[Donkey Kong]] being the heir to the throne.
*Donkey Kong is referred to as Cranky Kong's son, unlike in the games, where it has been stated that Donkey Kong is Cranky Kong's grandson.
*When [[Mini Mario (form)|Mini Mario]] takes damage, he reverts to his normal form rather than being defeated.
*[[Cat Mario]] is depicted with visible claws.
*While selecting a [[kart]], [[tire]]s, and [[glider]] in the [[kart workshop]], the item roulette sound effect from throughout the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series is heard. This is not the case when selecting kart parts in the games.
*Peach wears a helmet when riding her [[bike]].
*During the battle on [[Rainbow Road]], a [[Koopa Troopa]] fires a [[Green Shell]], which bounces off of and crashes multiple [[kart]]s. In the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series, Green Shells break after hitting a single kart.
*Several characters transfer between different [[kart]]s that they drive/ride on during the [[Rainbow Road]] battle. Players are unable to hop from kart to kart in the games and are only able to use the one they have selected.
**By extension, riders of karts are flung from their vehicles when they are crashed into.
*Karts' [[anti-gravity]] feature can be manually activated or deactivated by the driver.
*[[Bullet Bill]]s are used as projectile weapons, fired from karts during the battle on [[Rainbow Road]]. In the ''Mario Kart'' series, they are not used as projectiles; instead, the player transforms into a Bullet Bill themselves.
*A large number of [[banana]]s are fired out of a kart's cannon during the battle on Rainbow Road. In the games, bananas can be dropped as a single item, or three in the form of [[Triple Bananas]].
*The [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]] is known as the "Blue Shell", and due to belonging to the [[Koopa General]], it does not attack whomever is in the lead (Peach and Toad) but instead attacks Mario and Donkey Kong.
**It also destroyed Rainbow Road, while in the games it is not capable of destroying the courses.
*In the ''Mario Kart'' series, all race courses either loop or have an end after the finish line. In the film, Rainbow Road is not presented in this fashion and is rather a straight two-way track with branching paths.
*Like in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', [[Bowser]] plans a forced wedding to Peach, but unlike it, as Mario and Peach have not been established as love interests like in the games; Mario's motivations lie in saving Luigi instead of stopping Bowser from marrying Peach, and he does not attempt to directly stop the wedding nor propose marriage to Peach.
*[[Ice Mario|Ice Peach]] is capable of freezing [[Bowser]], unlike in the games.
*A [[Banzai Bill]] is referred to as the "Bomber Bill", and is roughly the size of a [[King Bill]].
**It is also used as a high-powered weapon capable of destroying entire kingdoms (though the strike does not happen due to Tanooki Mario halting it), when no such thing is done in any game.
*The [[Tanooki Mario|Tanooki Suit]] is referred to as the [[Raccoon Mario|Raccoon Suit]].
*[[Tanooki Mario]] has indefinite flight capability rather than only being able to fly for a short amount of time (though [[Raccoon Mario]] can fly indefinitely in the games using a [[P-Wing]], the movie has Mario use a standard [[Super Leaf]] to become Tanooki Mario as in games such as ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'').
*The [[Invincible Mario|effects]] of the [[Super Star]] last longer.
*[[Invincible Mario]] is able to destroy a [[Sledge Bro]]'s hammer upon making contact with it whereas, in the games, they are merely deflected.
*[[Super Mushroom]]s and [[Mini Mushroom]]s are never referred to by their actual names, but generically as "red mushrooms" and "blue mushrooms" respectively; though the former power-up's Nintendo name is used in the bonus feature "''The Super Mario Bros. Movie'' Field Guide" on the DVD release. The mushrooms also lack eyes when shown in the film, though they are depicted with eyes in the credits, promotional art and merchandise.

==Trivia==
*The Universal Pictures logo in this film runs shorter than its usual appearances.
*The Super Mario Bros. Plumbing commercial is presented in pillarboxed widescreen, and as the camera pans to show the Mario Bros., the aspect ratio widens to the cinematic anamorphic aspect ratio.
*There is an error after Luigi inadvertently defeats a Dry Bones. As he says, "You just got-a Luigi'd!", the back locks in his hair suddenly snap into place.
**Another error appears in the Mushroom Council scenes where Peach's earrings are missing from her ears.<ref>{{cite|author=GameXplain|date=March 15, 2024|url=youtu.be/m1wjYHO1oKM?t=396|title=40+ MISTAKES in the Mario Movie Nintendo Thought No One Would Notice|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=March 15, 2024}}</ref>
**Another error appears in the [[Training Course (The Super Mario Bros. Movie)|Training Course]]. When Mario starts it for the first time and runs over the [[Brick Block]]s, in the background are some lines of Brick Blocks and [[? Block|Question Blocks]], but they are absent when the camera shows the full jump.
*Bowser is the only character to refer to Princess Peach in-film by her name, Toad is never referred to by name by any other character (though Peach does use the name a few times, it is only in reference to the Toad species), and Kamek is never referred to by name at all.
*Several voice clips are reused during the course of the film, including:
**Mario screaming after he falls attempting to land on a platform, which is reused when he is launched by a dummy Bullet Bill.
**Luigi screaming after being captured by Shy Guys and Snifit, which is reused when Bowser pulls his mustache.
**Bowser saying, "I guess... love really makes a guy come out of his shell" from his mock proposal with Kamek, which is reused with his actual proposal with Peach.
*In the Latin American Spanish dub, there are instances in which the characters are dubbed imitating their voices in the games:
**This is common with Mario, such as during the training scene and in the scenes on the Rainbow Road, where Mario's yells and reactions are identical to those in the games.
**In the scene where Mario directs the Bomber Bill towards the Warp Pipe, he says "''Follow me!''" with an Italian accent imitating Charles Martinet.
**During the fight between Mario and Donkey Kong, Peach shouts Mario's name imitating Samantha Kelly's voice.
**In the scene where Toad distracts the guards at Peach's Castle, he screams with a raspy voice like in the games.
*One piece of concept art for the film depicting Mario and Luigi having a picnic was redrawn for the 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM sleep mode screen in ''[[Game & Watch: Super Mario Bros.]]'', three years before the film's own release.<ref>{{cite|author=|date=|url=https://tcrf.net/Prerelease:Game_%26_Watch:_Super_Mario_Bros.|title=Prerelease:Game & Watch: Super Mario Bros.|publisher=The Cutting Room Floor|archive=https://web.archive.org/web/20231230043627/https://tcrf.net/Prerelease:Game_%26_Watch:_Super_Mario_Bros.|accessdate=June 1, 2024}}</ref>
