TLDR: **I love that Mario bought Peach an umbrella from New York and that Peach kept it and used it.**

At the end of the first movie, it's implied that the brothers moved to the Mushroom Kingdom but still worked as plumbers in Brooklyn, given that Luigi was still travelling with their toolbox with tools that are not suitable for warp pipes. Plus, in the first movie, Luigi also says something along the lines of, "I'm glad we spent all our life savings on this commercial!", meaning that the brothers had no money.

This meant that Mario worked as a plumber with Luigi and somehow saved enough money in the few months in between both movies to buy Peach an expensive gift. He, despite working a blue-collar job, is implied to have gone to a very expensive store in Brooklyn/New York to buy Peach an expensive umbrella/parasol that she would like, despite not having any life savings for himself otherwise. Moreover, he spent enough time shopping and looking for it to ensure that the parasol was pink, which he figured was Peach's favourite colour.

I also love how Peach said "I love it!" and then kept the parasol WITH HER for the rest of the movie, instead of keeping it aside. She literally just decided it was now a part of her existence, I guess. That parasol ended up saving her life (and Mario and Toad's) multiple times in the movie, and I'm pretty sure also had a higher screentime than Rosalina 😭

But, anyway, I find the parasol thing to be much more wholesome than I initially thought, now that I've thought about it some more.

After watching the movies I came to realize something, can you even permanently kill Koopas. In the movie Bowser falls right into a lava pit, and comes out as a skeleton, but still alive, same with the other Koopas soldiers. Are they immortal what can permanently kill them?

My 4 yo had a really good day at the doctor's so I drew him this picture of the bros. I used acrylic markers and pen on multimedia paper and it took me about 12ish hours across 4 days.

I just replayed Super Mario Land via the Game Boy virtual console on the Switch and while I know that SML is short and the level design is rather simplistic, I really appreciate the creativity of it all.

Having the worlds be based on actual real world locations is a cool idea. I know that Odyssey did this idea and obviously had the power to do it better, but Land had the right idea. The enemies and the bosses in Land are also unique. And the music is catchy.

Overall a very nice game to replay time and time again.

I have Super Mario World (Super Mario Advance 2) and cannot figure out how to progress. I have been locked in the same spot since I received both the game and GBA when I was 9! It’s World 6 (Chocolate Island). I can finish the Chocolate Fortress but there is no path to the Chocolate Castle!

Or do you think they’ll just make her a friend?
