For most of its history MG – also known as Morris Garages – was associated with British open-top roadsters but that changed with the collapse of Rover in 2005, which saw the Chinese state-owned SAIC group take over.

The trailer did reveal Jack Black as Bowser, and Keegan-Michael Key as Toad. But some fans were disappointed that the clip didn’t include a clip of Seth Rogen as Donkey Kong, especially the actor’s infamous laugh.

Dr Cecilia Melendres, a pediatric sleep expert at Johns Hopkins University, told DailyMail.com that the rise in video game supplements was ‘definitely is a major factor’ in the current sleep crisis facing among US children and teens.

«It’s been a lifelong dream of mine to be Mario,» Pratt says in a video clip preceding the trailer, relating how he played Mario games on a machine at his childhood laundromat. Good to know, but the jury is still out on how that dream will become a reality.

He doesn’t deliver any of Mario’s famed catchphrases — no «It’s-a me, Mario» or «Wahoo!» Maybe more will be revealed when a longer trailer comes along. Regardless, there’s a better chance to hear some of Jack Black’s Bowser (he’s excellent) and a good look at the vibrant animation.

It’s-a him. Chris Pratt as Mario in the movie. OK, so co-producer Chris Meledandri confirmed in 2021 that Pratt wouldn’t use the stereotyped voice of the video game plumber in the uanimated Mario film. But on Thursday, Nintendo dropped a  teaser trailer for The Super Mario Bros. Movie, and Pratt revealed, kind of, the voice he did choose.

The EU competition enforcer also asked if Activision’s trove of user data would give the U.S. software giant a competitive advantage in the development, publishing and distribution of computer and console games, the EU document shows.

And another person summed it up nicely, writing, «It’s not similar to Mario. It’s not similar to Mario’s vibe. It’s not even similar to the live action movie version. Just Chris Pratt sounding a little confused.»
