What really pissed me off about this movie was that they brought Bob Hoskins back to life and then killed him again to make this movie.
Plus the de-aging tech they used on Jon Lenguizamo was terrible and looked totally fake
It was actually Daniel Day-Lewis method-acting as Bob Hoskins playing Mario; when the cameras weren’t rolling, everybody had to address him as Bob and he had lots of great anecdotes about Roger Rabbit.
I will defend this movie to my dying day
Which movie? There’s two referenced here.
The Mario movie
:^)
Jokes aside, wasn’t it kinda alluded to? Or has Mario always been a New Yorker?
I think the character was always meant to be an Italian plumber living in Brooklyn, the original movie just went along with it
Thank you, that clears it. I knew he was a plumber, but I didn’t know anything else about the backstory.
