WI: Nintendo/Disney team-up

True enough. It needs to be pushed back at least a month, probably more. I wouldn't say a full year, but you need to get out of JP's way.

A December release would be risky, but it's probably the best place they can go with summer dominated by Jurassic Park.
 
Hope the movie work...and who could come next? Zelda? Metroid? wait for Pokemon? Maybe this improve Mortal Kombat Quality a lot(like asking certain Mr Lee to start it as Liu Kang?)
Brandon Lee was already dead by this point, but, yeah: that attempt to bulid a multimedia empire out of a video game may go a lot better or a lot worse if they aren’t the only ones trying: as for the next movie: outside of the sequels to Mario, and there will be sequels. I could see them trying their hand at a lot of potential Nintendo IP: Zelda, Pokémon will be out in two years...Maybe a shot at Kirby, since he was getting big around this time.
 
So, looked it up on Moviefone and here's the current release for December 1993.

I'd say that the worst competition the Super Mario Brothers movie would have is Schindler's List (always Spielberg, isn't it?), Tombstone and Philadelphia. Six Degrees bombed, Wayne's World and Gilbert Grape bombed though not as badly and the hype machine behind the Mario movie would decimate Beethoven's Second.
 
Schindler's List (always Spielberg, isn't it?),
Yep. Thankfully, they're targeting a very different audience, so it shouldn't be too much of an issue: Market yourself as the kiddie/family movie for the holiday season: They're kinda the only option there.

Yeah and will be the holiday movie for all audiences
