Universal Supercharges The Super Mario Galaxy Movie with a Galactic Super Bowl Teaser
The highly-anticipated Super Mario Galaxy movie is just months away from hitting theaters, and it's getting bigger by the day. To ramp up excitement for the film, Universal released an epic 60-second teaser during last weekend's Super Bowl broadcast, showcasing stunning visuals and thrilling action sequences that hint at a universe of epic proportions.
The teaser kicks off with a nod to one of the most iconic moments in gaming history – the T-Rex from Super Mario Odyssey. This time around, Yoshi and Toad are front and center, defending baby versions of Luigi and Mario from a massive, dino-sized threat. But that's just a taste of what's to come.
Next up is a broader, more expansive advert that reveals an entirely new world: a cyberpunk city, complete with neon-lit skyscrapers and a bustling bar full of classic Mario baddies. The visuals are breathtaking, with Illumination pushing the boundaries of what's possible in a live-action/CGI hybrid.
Perhaps most thrilling, however, is the chance to see Yoshi doing what he does best: swallowing enemies and spitting them out as eggs. It's a look we've seen before in animated films, but here it's played for laughs – making this movie a potential treat for kids (and adults) of all ages.
With The Super Mario Galaxy Movie set to hit theaters on April 1st, this teaser is sure to generate even more buzz around the film. One thing's certain: if this is any indication of what's in store, Nintendo and Illumination are thinking BIG – and we can't wait to see it all come together on the big screen.

I'm not entirely convinced by this teaser. I mean, where's the substance? Just a bunch of flashy visuals and CGI nonsense. What's with the cyberpunk city? Is that really something Nintendo is planning to tackle? And don't even get me started on the "new" Yoshi abilities... we've seen those in animated films before, not exactly breaking new ground here. I need some credible sources backing up these claims, not just a bunch of hype and speculation 
The Super Mario Galaxy movie teaser looks AMAZING 
! I mean, who wouldn't want to see Yoshi swallowing enemies and spitting them out as eggs? 
It's like a dream come true for any Mario fan out there. And the visuals in that cyberpunk city are just WOW 
. I'm getting major excitement vibes from this teaser - can't wait for April 1st! 
The fact that Illumination is pushing the boundaries of live-action/CGI is insane 
. You're gonna have an absolute blast watching this movie, trust me 
. Like, who thought it was a good idea to make a live-action movie out of Super Mario Galaxy? It's gonna be one of those overhyped blockbusters that disappoints everyone... And now they're teasing us with a cyberpunk city and Yoshi eating enemies... just waiting for the inevitable plot twist or ridiculous CGI mess 
! I mean, a cyberpunk city with Mario baddies? That sounds straight outta a dream 
! And Yoshi's egg-spitting skills? 
. One thing I'm curious about is how they're gonna balance the action with the humor. If done right, this could be a wild ride 
!
it's definitely got me hyped for what's to come! 
from start to finish, i love how they included Yoshi's egg-splosions lol 
its gonna be so wild. Universal is really stepping up the game with this one and im so here for it 
next thing you know, they'll be merchandising mushroom hats everywhere 
what's with the cyberpunk city tho? is that really something from the game? 
Can't wait for April 1st to come around and experience all this awesomeness on the big screen 
. I'm loving how they're not holding back with the Easter eggs and nods to classic Mario games - it feels like Nintendo and Illumination are saying, "We've been working hard on this, folks!" 
And let's be real, if Yoshi can make an egg-splosive entrance that'll blow your mind, we know the special effects team has got this 
. I'm predicting a box office smash, and if it lives up to these expectations, it's gonna be a "Golden Ticket" moment for gaming movies! 
. nintendo and illumination are killing the game with this one 
. It's like, they want us to remember that this is a whole universe we're talking about, not just these two guys saving the day. It's all about creating that sense of wonder and excitement for the viewer. And honestly, who wouldn't want to see Yoshi in action? 
that's like something out of a cartoon lol. i'm not even mad about it, more excited for this movie now than ever. 60 seconds isn't even long enough to get my mind off how epic the visuals are gonna be in theaters btw
. Can't wait to see the final product, fingers crossed they don't mess it up 
. I mean, don't get me wrong, the teaser looks amazing and all, but it feels a bit... safe? Like they're playing it too cool instead of taking some risks? Still, can't wait to see what they do with this world and these characters on screen
