    Oh man, the idea that you consider the worst Chris to be a bigger draw than Mario. Wow

      I think it’s more about drawing other audiences. Kids and gamers will absolutely watch Mario. If you cast Pratt, you could probably pull marvel fans as well. Using the og Mario voice actor may miss out on those sales

        Again he’s the worst Chris. He’s not a draw for anybody. Great actors can be draws. That ain’t him.

            Okay, just as a caveat I know we should let this go and it doesn’t really matter and it’s obviously all subjective. However I’m just deathly curious, do you consider Chris Pratt a great actor? Cuz I’ve never heard anyone say that and I’d be fascinated to find otherwise.

              I did enjoy him on parks and rec but I think he’s good at the roles he’s filling, golden retriever comedic relief that can take on action scenes and will be generally liked by the average American.

              He’s no Anthony Hopkins or Daniel Day-Lewis but he’s got general audience pull and that goes back to why they’d cast him as Mario.
