Yeah I only seen the movie once in it's entirety and that was when it first was released on VHS. I had my mom rent it. She probably hated having to sit and watch that with me.

Although they were just trying to make this scene fun, but the guy portraying himself as many see as the stereotypical gamer(30 year old living with mom with the added reference of Star Trek) and also the plain stupidity of everyone just standing around him doing nothing but stressing. They weren't giving the guy a reach around at the least(I mean the guy must be a virgin if they are going to work the stereotype all the way.)??? This scene would have redeemed itself if the girl that took his place was using The Duke as the controller. Seeing a girl with something huge in her hands as she manipulates it to get her way always gets me hot.

Yeah that episode of Life was terrible. I wanted to laugh through that entire section but was too amazed that it was real.

That Life clip is atrocious, I have a hard time believing that was shot within the last 15 years. I love how at the end, when they actually reach "level 10" the doors in the cutscene literally open and a whole bunch of file manager windows pop up :lol - couldn't of they at least showed the game reboot into some sort of operating system or something?
It sort of reminds me of those 80s and early 90s movies where someone would "hack" into a computer system and their "hacking" would be portrayed as them literally flying a virtual character through magical doors in cyberspace. Think Weird Science where they're hacking into the pentagon or something to draw more power to bring their doll to life :lol

This scene isn't embarrassing, but it always bothered me as a kid. Why the kids acting as though they are both playing Mario 3 at the same time, even though they're clearly not? RAGE!

Sega getting mentioned in Austin Powers and The Lost World: JP made me happy to the point that I remember those refferences several years later. That's pretty embarassing.

Your mistake is calling the film "Super Mario Bros." rather than its original title of "Twisted Mildly Violent Buddy-Plumber Action-Comedy That Has Nothing To Do With Nintendo"
If you go into the movie knowing its original name it's actually good.

Well, that Jackie Chan video should cure some people of their Chun-Li fetish.

About 4:50 mark, Jackie hands a kid a Game Gear with no game in it. He proceeds to start playing.
Great movie though. The first Jackie Chan flick I ever saw. The dialouge is so bad that it's awesome.

Does the live action Mario movie count?
Because if it does then I got to say all game movies.

Put your snobby liquids into my mouth!
To this day, Jackie Chan dressing as Chun-Li still confuses me sexually.Jeo said:
This scene from Sopranos season 1 isn't to bad. Dad and boy playing Mariokart. Except that Tony is playing the game with one hand, and they restart a race by pressing something on the console.

I don't care what Life did, it redeemed any and everything possible with this episode. Prolly NSFW but it aired before 10pm on network TV so...
EDIT: This is one of the least embarassing references I've seen, if only because they actually got it right, sound effects and all. Seems like they research small shit like that on the show cuz they get a lot right.

last night at dinner my friend explained his newfound fascination with travel and realizing how big and wondrous the world is to "getting the airship in an rpg for the first time."
