#{{User|DrippingYellow}} Say what you will about trying not to separate variations of characters, even in media with notable differences from the "main canon" (i.e. ''[[Super Mario Bros. Super Show|Super Show]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen!|Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen]]''), these characters still have recognizable attributes. Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi certainly fit the bill of mere variations, but others I'm a little more icky on, with this lining up most easily with my opinions. With the film being designed to be a deliberate departure from other Mario material, it makes sense not to merge film characters unless they have significantly overlapping roles with their game counterparts. (e.g. Goombas are still the front-line weaklings, Yoshi is still held captive by Koopa and has a long tongue...)<br>The only merges I entirely disagree with here are the Snifits (who don't shoot bullets at all, and, if I had to guess, had their name chosen just because they "sniff 'it' (the garbage)"). As well as the King because... umm... he's not the king of the mushroom kingdom, nor Peach's father? I don't even get this connection to be honest. Nevertheless, I'm willing to wait it out to change those if this passes, because something something two-party system... | #{{User|DrippingYellow}} Say what you will about trying not to separate variations of characters, even in media with notable differences from the "main canon" (i.e. ''[[Super Mario Bros.

#{{User|Jdtendo}} Mario and Luigi have some similarities with their video game counterparts, but Toad, Iggy and Spike have nothing in common with their namesake, Big Bertha is way too different to the fish she is based on, and Daisy seems more like "Princess Toadstool but we called her Daisy because "Toadstool" is not a given name". | |||
