Wow, I'd never heard of that film and its Mario & Luigi coincidence.

This was a great episode and got me and my boys heavy into watching the Gaming Historian channel. This needs to have many more votes! *promote

Ok, they can say that and maybe it’s true, but I just want to point out that in the amazing 1953 French film, The Wages of Fear, the main characters are Mario and Luigi, and Luigi looks just like super Mario down to the hat (the Mario character is played by Yves Montand, a skinny French actor). I’ve always found that to be far too coincidental.

I'm thinking yeah. *commercial.

This is starting to bug me -- product placement inside of jokes. SNL is going to town on the revenue stream lately.

Just stop already.

The joke is cool -- but use "Mama Luigi's Family Pizzeria" -- same joke, no not-so-subliminal advertising

Thanks

But . . . but . . . why did you sift this and yet vote down Luigi's Ballad? They're by the same people, with the same humor, music, and animation. You confuse me . . .

Dark Dark and Dark
What the hell....


Totally. But I couldn't contain my laughter at how hysterically over-the-top it is. Absurdly hilarious.

Luigi sounds like Super Dave Osborne.

Is this because of the blizzard and stocking up on needed food and goods beforehand?

/You could do a re-mix with Mario & Luigi, because they've got most of the problems here (or could have; maybe even a Airplane! version). For the friends in jail just use Bowser and Wario as they both are friend'lier, but still find time to get the next Nintendo title out the door.

//Good cover though and once again I'm forced to up vote gwiz665, who spent all of his levels up in force powers in upvotes for anything Internet(z). So far the range seems to be slightly off of the California coast, but extends farther over land--there are a shitload of video upvotes from Juárez, Mexico and Omaha, Nebraska--go figure.

*backup=[...snipped...]

we've come a long way since Mario and Luigi, eh?

I haven't lol'd at all. Only reason I'm upvoting is because he calls them the Luigi brothers.
