Planet Bowser is a location in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. It is a planet constructed by Bowser Jr. within the Space Junk Galaxy and serves as his base of operations during the film. It contains a large amusement park and the Boomsday Weapon, which Bowser Jr. plans to use to destroy the universe.
While the planet is meant to resemble a Spike Ball, it also features elements from Super Mario Bros. Wonder's Castle Bowser, such as the green zig-zagging equator and horns and the Boomsday Weapon being a nod to the castle's Wonder Bowser spire. The planet's amusement park is also directly inspired by World Bowser's attractions from Super Mario 3D World.
Inspired by the bedtime stories told by his father, Bowser Jr. creates Planet Bowser in Space Junk Galaxy after being expelled from boarding school, basically by himself as a result of his dislike of it. With the help of Kamek and Bowser's Minions, he captures Rosalina to use her star energy to power the Boomsday Weapon. After rescuing his father, he takes him to Planet Bowser and leaves him amazed and impressed, so much so that he decides to return to villainy despite his desire to change his ways thanks to Luigi's rehabilitation program. After reaching Planet Bowser, Mario and his friends engage in battle against the Bowsers while Princess Peach rescues Rosalina. As Mario wins the battle by saving Junior from a dragon he summoned with his magic brush, Peach rescues her sister Rosalina and their star magic causes the whole planet to be covered in meadows and flowers, stopping the Boomsday Weapon once and for all. The Bowsers do not seem upset at this, but for putting the universe at risk they are sent to prison.
