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.
