(And yes I Got Hammer bros wrong sorry 😅)
Part 2 by popular demand is OUT!!!!! - ruclips.net/video/LWEDrWSkyTE/видео.html
epic
Hammer Bros. Battle Theme not Overworld
@KaylumDoesStuff At 6:17 you mentioned it gave you Mario Galaxy vibes well I recognized it and remembered it was the beginning of "King Bowser" from the Super Mario Galaxy OST
@@4AEMRR you’re correct!
@@kaylumdoesstuff8373 1:39: I would like to point out that the pitch to the Underwater section is similar to the pitch used in the Super Mario Bros. Super Show: ruclips.net/video/73JQ3J5qKgU/видео.html
This whole movie was basically just a beautifully animated medley
And it was EPIC.
yeaaaah
Full of eye candy and ear candy
@@waikeonglim7703man so true, I really want it to go on top of the charts
With 3 gross out of place interruptions, one of which actually took place at a point where one of these tracks would have been in the movie if it was actually in it and not just on the soundtrack
I love that they included stuff from Galaxy and Odyssey, not just the classics.
Seeing that Tostarena exists put a smile on my face.
And also Bowser's Fury
That’s because those games are classics.
Galaxy was my absolute favorite 😍
@@VenaCava I saw that too, but I couldn’t remember what the kingdom name was!!
Loved the movie, but my only issue is that in the rainbow road scene, they aren't falling off the track 80% of the time
I mean most of them DO end up falling off the track
Toad had smart steer on 😔
Well I guess they’re just pros…? EVEN MARIO THOUGH HE WAS NEW TO THIS… Or maybe are we just all bad at it…?
[SPOILER] I got triggered when Mario took a shortcut and Lakitu didn't stop him
it was the N64 version
2:52 They did such a good job on the Mario Galaxy music. I loved hearing that in the end credits.
@@kid-named-finger-lolt’s okay I feel your pain
@Finger I’ve never even played Mario Galaxy at all before but even i almost felt close to crying when i heard that track (sister hasn’t played it before either but she actually was crying at that part lol), it’s just that powerful
@@TheRealDoomSingermakes you feel like you accomplished a important job, or makes you feel like you didn’t something good
I cried when I heard this in theaters it was just so good!
One thing I noticed while watching the movie is that all the non-soundtrack songs (Holding Out For A Hero, Take on Me, ETC) came from the 80’s, the same decade the Mario franchise originated from.
Although that was cool, it is extremely unfortunate that those songs replaced remix songs that were cut from the film (they are going to be in the deleted scenes)
Have to keep the parents attention somehow lmao
A lot of people don't notice this. But there is actually a smart steer antenna on the back of toads giant truck.
Seriously
Bro, he doesn't know how to drive? Even a baby knows how to💀
Omg that made me laugh so hard
Well. Time to go watch it again
I noticed
THIS is how you adapt a soundtrack to a film adaptation. Mad kudos and respect to Brian Tyler, Koji Kondo, and everyone else who was involved in bringing the series soundtrack to life
Now let them compose my funeral
Agreed. The only bad thing about the soundtrack were the random pop songs thrown in. They did not fit at all.
@@mustacheman529 very true
@@mustacheman529 Take On Me had kinda funny timing imo
@@mustacheman529 they gotta advertise it as an Illumination film somehow
@@Ultim808 They have that dumb dog at the beginning to do that.
Even getting a smidge of the Luigi’s Mansion theme was a big win in my book 💚 i love this movie so much
I was so excited when I heard those notes.
Yeah my fav character from Mario is Luigi and my favorite games are from Luigi’s Mansion and when I saw him in the forest in my mind I was “yo Luigi mansion” then when I hear those few notes I went “LUIGIS MANSION”
@@kaylumdoesstuff8373 I was screaming please play Luigi’s mansion when he was being chased
Luigi's Mansion Music And King Boo?
Yeah, We Really NEED a Luigi's Mansion Movie
Legit I was wispering the title theme of Luigi's Mansion 3 when I saw Luigi in the Dark Lands
Big ups to Brian Tyler. He said in an interview with Variety that he is a huge Mario fan and you can absolutely tell.
“I knew this music,” Tyler shares. “It was a part of my childhood in the same way that I grew up listening to film scores. I wanted to have built-in nostalgia where it immediately feels like Mario,” he says for writing new Mario music. “The idea was the score would be thematic Mario.”
He worked closely with the original composer Koji Kondo on the new soundtrack and this was the end result. Absolutely amazing.
The whole movie had that perfect balance between "easter eggs too obvious to everyone" to "if you know, you know" and I had a blast being 38 year old dude in a Luigi hat."
I've never dressed up for a movie before, but was happy to for this one, and wasn't let down. Peaches peachespeachespeaches has been stuck in my head all day.
I can always appreciate that illumination recognizes that no matter how much you try, no amount of remixing can make “Bowser’s Fury” more epic
Agreed! I literally screamed in the theater when I heard it! I was hoping for N64 rainbow road but that moment was so much better!
whend it play again
That moment was so amazing to me, literally my favorite part of the movie
OMG I was SO happy during that scene! I'm so glad they used phase 2/3 too! My dad hasn't even heard it before and he said "That song that the band plays in the movie was my favorite." I couldn't have had a cooler father 🤪
Yas as soon as I heard that music in the movie I was screaming and running
The Super Mario Galaxy star select theme is used as a bridge between Toad House and Bob-omb Battlefield in "Welcome to the Mushroom Kingdom"
Is it!! Cool!
(Let’s all collectively pretend like I didn’t forget to add this in the part 2 😅)
Pfp from magical starsign spotted
@@TheeDeeM Based
Don't forget that Luigi's phone ringtone is the Nintendo Gamecube startup jingle.
Yeah! I almost yelled out in theatre when that happened. Can’t believe I forgot it
I'm surprised I didn't hear that much laughter in the theater when that happened in the movie. I wonder how a theater full of die-hard Mario fans would react to that reference, among many others.
Apparently it is also used for Pikmin because that's how my 8 year old son recognized it. And he plays my GC a decent amount xD
Brian Taylor’s passion for the franchise was clear and evident every second of the OST.
Imagine if we have the same passion for every single other Nintendo film we have from here on out. Truly incredible!
If they ever make a Zelda Movie i better hear a hard af soundtrack on that
Brian Tyler, not "Taylor"
@@kaarD04 they probably will at one point seeing as everyone is making a video game movie adaptation
The Peache’s Castle Lemotif at 6:42 felt really powerful and cool at the theater, I got goosebumps
They did so good with the soundtrack
Easily my favourite thing about the movie for me
@@kaylumdoesstuff8373 Fr as someone who listens to a lot of movie and videogame soundtracks by themselves, this was amazing
@@JediPacman really hope this lets Hollywood know that incorporating video game music in the score of their video game movies is a massive Win.
@@kaylumdoesstuff8373 agreed, I like the Sonic movies but they can do way better at this when it comes to the soundtracks
Agreed
I don't know why I thought the Mario 3 Overworld 2 bit was the Dr Mario theme but it's similar
You’re not crazy. Lots think they hear Dr. Mario there. I go over it in part 2
@@kaylumdoesstuff8373 aha!
It is Dr. Mario theme. Doesn't sound even close to Overworld 2. I sure as heck haven't grown tone-deaf.
It's Hammer Bros. From SMB3
@@TheChabowski For god's sake you're right. This is what happens with too much arrogance. Good job me. I've seen an acapella video where Dr Mario and the Hammer Bros themes are mixed into each other so smoothly it's uncanny. That threw me off. Still not Overworld 2 though.
I really liked how they did the mario kart 8 menu music, it sounds twice as whimsical as youd ever expect to hear it
When I heard the rainbow road theme (10:35) I genuinely got goosebumps. Illumination and Nintendo made an amazing movie
2:08 I was a bit sad it only be heard during the credits. Would have been great to hear it somewhere in Bowser’s Domain
Seriously. Its arguably the best castle theme.
@@meeknuggets4860 Either this or Bowser’s Road. Both are my favourite
@@xeronylloyd21 it was an absolute crime that koopa road didn’t play, maybe it’ll show up in the next film given how well it’s performing in the box office
@@meeknuggets4860smw and nsmbds has the best castle themes
So Bryan Tyler, the composer, basically did one of my favorite soundtracks 10 years ago (Final Destination 5). Then BAM, all of a sudden he twice-attacks in 2023 with both Scream 6’s beautiful score and then THIS INCREDIBLE MASTERPIECE! It’s so funny seeing him go from horror to my favorite videogame series over the past 30 years. Well done and thank you Mr. Tyler 🙂
He also did Transformers Prime’s soundtrack
What an odd trio of movie soundtracks!
He definitely knocked it out of the park with the past 2 screams but this score is something else absolutely incredible!
Horror and Mario??
Luigi's Mansion HAS to be the main theme for the next movie in this series!!
YOOO I FEEL THE SAME. Final Destination 5 main theme and fate’s bridge made me me a huge fan!!! To fin out he has done other movies made me so happy.
Man, these songs would be amazing in a theme park ride. They're so alive
Hearing the Luigi’s Mansion theme in the big scream was the most exciting thing I’ve heard in years
K but like, I'm really struggling here. Where is it? I don't hear any of it when comparing the two tracks. I hear the end of Deep Dark Galaxy and then the SMB3 fortress motif.
@@froezone_ You can faintly hear it between 7:32 and 7:34. Luigi hums it at 7:56. It happens really quick. I wish I could describe it better but I’m not sure what instrument plays it… I flipped out hearing it in the theater lol.
@@SebbyWest Ahh, it's like an oboe or something. K I very quickly hear it now, just the four notes but so subtle Idk how people picked that out watching the movie lol. Thanks for helping!
They’re super subtle with it. So when I was super stoked when I caught just a glimpse of it
my poor brothers arm when I smacked him when i heard it.
6:09 is a reference to "P" Switch timer sound in New Super Mario Bros games
😲 I didn’t even notice that woah! Cool!
and after that it's like a tragic version of the Yoshi s island end of a level theme
@@emiliocarrillo4594 nah its the beginning of bowsers theme from smg
@@SparksyKai Ok thanks
During the Koopa band scene (Fury Bowser Phase 2), I got so excited that it was in the movie because it was one of my favorites. My dad, who isn't nearly as familiar with the music as I am and isn't nearly as big a Mario fan as I am, told me that was one of his favorite songs in the entire movie. I was so happy about that that I set that as his new ringtone LOL. 😂 I recognized just about all of these musical references and remixes and every single time, I wanted to say things like "That's the level clear theme!" out loud.
We should've gotten a scene where Charlie Day sings the Luigi's Mansion theme, that would've been amazing.
I was in theater thinking “WHERE HAVE I HEARD THIS BEFORE!?!?!?” Now I know. Thank you!
i thought he did hum it at one point? it was when he first shows up in the spooky skeleton lands
man i literally cried every time i heard a reference while watching it. i felt like a kid again.
Who else thought aquatic ambience should have played when Mario saved DK underwater?
I KNOW BRO, like even just the first 4 notes would’ve made me love this movie 5x more
Agreed. Or Dire Dire Docks since you know the famous Eel from that very level showed up.
Maybe not when they’re getting eaten but when they’re having their slow chat they could have eased it in there.
@@kaylumdoesstuff8373 actually the Eel is from Jolly Roger Bay which yeah does play the Dire Dire Docks theme
FR!!
6:18 is actually the beginning of the bowser fights in the first mario galaxy, so those vibes aren’t without merit :3
I thought it was, that theme absolutely slaps
When Kamek plays the piano, he does the same thing Martin Leung, the video game pianist, does during his Super Mario Melody with the Underground theme.
3:46
Hearing this in the theaters was crazy. I always enjoy hearing the airship theme anywhere.
You could tell who were genuine Mario fans by the way people reacted to the music.
That part in welcome to the mushroom kingdom that gives you galaxy vives is the start of bowsers fight theme from that game
You’re so right! Thank you!
And before that there's a theme when you hit the special block and starts a countdown
You had no idea how much fun it was to find them all. It felt like..an Easter egg hunt! You can tell how much care went into this movie and it’s fabulous
when Luigi was in the Dark Lands, i was getting an insane amount of Luigi's Mansion vibes
With the orchestral smorgasbord they blended into this movie, galaxy was bound to get some love as it was pretty much the roots of Mario orchestra.
I got so excited when Jungle Hijinks played. The Donkey Kong references were great because I'm a huge Donkey Kong fan. This movie was amazing.
The SMB3 song in Level Complete is actually the song from the hammer bros fights
The part that gives you galaxy vibes is actually the hook from the Bowser fights from galaxy 1.
Nice catch on Deep Dark Galaxy. I didn’t catch that one myself.
I personally viewed the bridge in Buckle Up as the intro chord progression of GBA’s Rainbow Road, but that counts imo cuz GBA RR references it directly
I thought it was from Dr mario at first.
nice to see an adaptation movie that seems like the people behind it actually enjoy and have experienced the source.
I view The Super Mario Bros Movie as a celebration of Mario and how far he has come as of the last 42 years.
It's clear Mario isn't just the face of Nintendo, he's the undisputed face of the Video-Gaming Industry.
The little bit of Luigi's Mansion as he's exploring the darklands gave me the biggest smile!
It's nice to see people genuinely in love with music from game to film
Hearing gusty garden from SMG made me so emotional in the theater. I literally almost cried, i absolutely love SMG and it’s a part of my childhood, it was amazing hearing it in theaters ❤
This just makes me appreciate the amazing music Mario franchise has ❤
3:36 Heard this in the opening scene, and was like "oh here we go!" I knew this movie was gonna slap at that moment.
This theme gave me goosebumps
3:51 This was my favourite bit of the soundtrack. I was humming it in my head when the scene was coming in but when I heard those notes, I knew it.
This Movie is a Masterpiece full of Musical Nostalgia, and with Brian Tyler composing them, it can't go wrong! Gave me goosebumps!
The feeling I got in the theater when I heard the musical masterpiece Gusty Garden Galaxy play cannot be explained with words
This movie was pure joy from beggining to end.
0:57 - As I’ve been pointed out to by Zomb Su and Rose this is indeed the Hammer Bro theme from that game, not the athletic theme. My bad not sure how I mixed that up. Thank you!
Yes. And in my ears I think they also use the same melody in the vs. battle in smb3 too. Where Mario and Luigi can fight, arcade style. I dont think it was in the original arcade version though.
I KNEW I HEARD DEEP DARK GALAXY, I was certain I wasn’t hearing it wrong, I’m so glad they added other Mario songs other than the most well known one
I think my favorite part is the new Leitmotif theme they composed collaboratively just for the movie. I kept scouring my brain to find the original until I found an article where Brian said it was the one original theme he and Koji collabed on for the soundtrack, and my heart exploded.
Gusty Garden has GOT to be my favorite. The nostalgia was too much for me to handle
6:09 this part is the P switch theme.
0:03 -Level Complete

You also got bowser fury music as well
@@best_mate456 you’re right! I was gonna put it in the little blurb at the end but forgot. Good catch. That one is a pretty obvious one I misplaced.
@@kaylumdoesstuff8373 no problem
the mario 3 one at the start is wrong, its the hammer bros theme :3
@@rosecallisto2981 OH! Absolutely right. Good catch! Not sure why I made that mistake!
SiIvaGunner has definitely corrupted me by this point because 7:05 sounds more like The Nutshack to me now lmao
I think by far my favorite "little reference" in the whole score is when Mario defeats DK in the arena, you hear the jingle from the arcade game that plays when he carries Pauline up the scaffolding. Absolutely geeked out when I heard it
I cannot express how excited i was to hear gusty garden galaxy. Love this movie and love the wonderful soundtrack they gave us
There was also Bowser's Fury theme playing when everyone was partying in Bowser's castle. Played by the Koopa Band.
I understood every single one of them. Is this what nostalgia is? I’m only 17😂
I’m so glad Gusty Garden was included I absolutely love the music from the super Mario Galaxy games. I cannot wait to watch this movie! Great video
I pogged too many times in the theaters hearing the little musical references.
(Especially luncheon kingdom)
extra findings that weren't mentioned
0:58 - Hammer Bros. Battle Theme (I know it says Mario 3 overworld 2, but that's the wrong theme, its the one I listed. you can check it for yourself!)
6:09 - p-switch timer jingle
Omg thank you! I was thinking somethin were wrong but i could've remember the hammer bros theme
The passion put into this movie was felt strongly with the target audiences. There's no surprise why it's made so much money. This movie was such a love letter!
As a lifelong gamer since the original Nintendo Super Mario Bros, the amount of love and references in the music alone just kept me smiling the whole movie. Even some tears, the Donkey Kong Country jingle and Yoshi’s Island sting got me right in the feels. 😭
In "Fighting Tooth and Veil", at around 1:18, there's even more references. There's another beautiful arrangement of the SMB1 Ground Theme and then at 1:52, it plays the opening to SMB3's Athletic Theme before switching to SMW's Athletic Theme's opening part and then switching BACK to SMB3's Athletic Theme again! It finally finishes with what sounds like Chill from Dr. Mario at 2:06! The music in this movie is just top tier, broh!
Edit: Timestamps are for the actual song here: ruclips.net/video/3rH-KYDh1DQ/видео.html
Where is it tho for here? (I think your RUclips app was broken for a moment it happened to me a few times too (-2:50 even though it’s 12:50) just log off of the app and reopen it)
@@nabbitgohome9672 The timestamps I put are not for this video, it's for the actual song I'm talking about. Here: ruclips.net/video/3rH-KYDh1DQ/видео.html
@@tedgonzalez985 thanks for telling me.
It's not Chill, it's the castle theme from World.
@@pieofchart Read my other comment talking about the timestamps, little broh.
At 6:10 there was the P-Switch music, and what played after that gave you galaxy vibes is a very short bit of “Bowser, Great Koopa King” from galaxy
When Gusty Garden started playing in the credits I started tearing up. Guess I love Mario Galaxy more than I thought. My favorite track and Mario game.
There’s so much in here it’s so good!! I’m really happy that they did this all with the music, though I wish they would’ve done more of it rather than throwing “Take On Me” etc in there??
fr
I cringed at all the real music inserts, they broke me out of the immersion. Why Illumination. Why waste money on pointless real life music that you prob had to go out of your way to pay for rights to put in the movie, when theres a giant plethora of mario music you had access to??
Just to make hackneyed western shrek level dated wink nudging instead of making it solely on the Mario franchise?
At 6:18 the original King Bowser theme from galaxy 1 was referenced
the minute 6:11 is from the object of the red ring or any button with time to grab the blue or red coins of the wii and wii u (including deluxe and luigi)
6:42 the peaches castle theme actually got me really excited for some reason
if you ever make a part 2, remember to include bowser's fury. i mean its in the name, its so hard to miss it!
That and Hammer Bros correction on the top of the list so far if I do
@@kaylumdoesstuff8373 you obviously have a super thorough handle on recognizing mario references so please keep making these vids! this was great!! my adhd wasn't fast enough in the theater a couple days ago and i just thought "OH THAT'S THE ONE TUNE!!!" i could only name ones featured in mk8 deluxe and odyssey
I think my favorite musical reference has to be when Mario and Luigi both enter the big condo at the beginning of the movie.
The intro of the lounge-style music that plays once they’re inside sounds extremely similar to that of the casino mini game from NSMBDS and SM64DS and I audibly squealed in the theatre when I heard it!
as soon as the toad treasure tracker tune started playing i pointed to the screen and was like “oh shit!!”
love it or hate it, you can still tell a lot of love went into making this movie
Love the soundtrack so much
If you listen carefully in the scene where they drive through the jungle kingdom about halfway through the movie, there’s a subtle reference to the 1984 song ‘Take Me On’ by A-Ha
Did anyone see the “world 1-2” sign
I did! Gave me a soft chuckle
If only these darn illumination movies could be anywhere above 1 hr 50m long. It couldn’t get enough of all the great world building in this movie!
Yeah. More time for the characters to catch their breath would of been great. But animation is expensive. Makes sense that they’re on the shorter side.
@@kaylumdoesstuff8373 there's definitely footage on the cutting room floor
@@halcyonacoustic7366 hopefully we get some deleted scenes whenever the DVD comes out.
2:45 Gusty Garden Galaxy :,)
作曲家の努力半端ない…マリオのゲーム全部やりこんでたかってレベルで凄い…繋がりに違和感もないしマリオ愛がめっちゃ伝わる選曲……マリオのゲームやってきた人は泣くレベル
日本の公開はまだだけどアメリカで大好評らしいからめっちゃ楽しみ！！！
6:10のところ🅿️スイッチ入ってると思う
The most beautiful music plays when Peach showing Mario how to beat the course. Goosebumps
That little Luigi’s mansion was so good. Definitely going to see a Luigi’s Mansion movie i have no doubt whatsoever. I really really like this movie.
Theory time: That’s why they only barely tease it so subtly. *They’re saving the full thing for Luigi spin-off.*
@@kaylumdoesstuff8373 I think you’re absolutely right. They even gave it a little backstory too!
@@DankPit adding to the theory. Boo’s are notably absent from the movie. And the one boo related thing later one doesn’t show up in the battle or plot.
10:30 so epic that I even cried with emotion
This is what the Sonic movies should have been doing from the start! I hope Paramount follows Mario's example for the 3rd movie as they've been missing big opportunities by using Sonic's awesome music catalogue
It’s a huge missed opportunity for a lot of movies based on video games. You have a great catalogue of stuff to work with and adapt
When I heard the new smb haunted mansion theme I got goosebumps, old trauma
i remember my friend was like you should’ve came 🍃 to the movie….like no, how am i gonna miss all these master pieces
9:50 NOOOOOOO WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY
I am so happy that this movie did so well, and I'm even happier I remember some pf these references. I'm gonna be rewatching it soon!
I've been hoping that someone would track down all the references and this video is 1000% what I've been looking for! The audio side-by-sides are perfect!!!
The bit at 6:18 (plays during the pipe gag scene) is the intro fanfare to the Bowser boss battles in mario galaxy
The song at 6:09 is the p-switch theme from NSMBW
The part at 6:17 definitely sounds like the opening to the Bowser fight from Super Mario Galaxy
The part that gives you Galaxy vibes is actually the intro for whenever you fight bowser in Galaxy
When Luigi received the phone call of the first client, its ringtone was the Gamecube intro 👀
wow, I mean I recognized some of the obvious ones while watching,
but there are a lot more subtle ones sprinkled everywhere, that blend with the score as well.
now that's really good scoring!
At 6:10 (this was one I recognized but couldn't put my finger on for a while) its the p switch theme from I believe super Mario bros wii, there might be an earlier rendition but thats what comes to mind
If I saw this movie as a kid...I probably would have cried tears of joy...
This Movie could`nt have been such a success without theses tracks man. I love them so much, very nostalgic but epic at the same time for me.
You can tell, atleast the composer, is a mario fan because he included the absolute banger that is, gusty garden galaxy. He didn't have to as the only reference to galaxy is one tiny comedic relief character. But he did.
I was straight up gonna go do this on my own time for my own personal satisfaction and curiosity, but you just made my job a whole lot easier, thank you so much for this :D
I Encourage you to still seek out more references in the soundtrack. I’m still getting people telling me stuff I missed!
@kaylumdoesstuff8373 Well, your part 2 already made the 1 Dr. Mario mention I was going to point out, but I'll be sure to keep an eye out!
