Mario composer

Though some, like "Donkey Kong 64" composer Grant Kirkhope, weren't credited (via Kotaku). As a bonus, fans get to see a post-credits scene, which alludes to the direction of a possible sequel set in the "Super Mario Bros." universe. In the post-credits scene, the underground sewage system of Brooklyn from the film's opening is explored, revealing an artifact left behind from the Mushroom Kingdom's crossover: A lone white egg with green spots, which "Super Mario Bros." fans will clearly recognize as belonging to Yoshi, one of Mario's most famous allies. Yoshi first appeared in the SNES title "Super Mario World," though the character's design dates back to the release of the original "Super Mario Bros." in 1985, according to IGN. The character later spawned his own spin-off franchise with "Yoshi's Island." Before the film finally cuts to black, the egg begins to crack, and Yoshi's iconic yelp can be heard. As Chris Pratt indicated in an interview with CBR, the film's post-credits scene "gets [him] very, very excited" about the prospect of doing another movie as Mario. Next time around, perhaps Mario will get to ride Yoshi in a sequence just as thrilling as the "Mario Kart" moment from "The Super Mario Bros. Movie." The future looks bright for video game movies Illumination Video game adaptations have earned a poor reputation over the past several decades. Of course, the original "Super Mario Bros." film from 1993 didn't help that cause, but adaptations like "Prince of Persia," "Doom," "Monster Hunter" and

Nintendo has gotten a lot of flack in the past few years for failing to credit contributors by name, and it seems like this trend continues into The Super Mario Bros. Movie. The DK rap is attributed to “Donkey Kong 64” rather than a human creator in the credits for the film, which was produced by Nintendo, Universal Pictures, and Illumination. And its composer isn’t happy about it.The DK rap is the intro song to Donkey Kong 64, the first 3D DK game released in 1999. While the quality of the song is a little contentious, it does its job in introducing Donkey Kong and his friends (who are all playable in the game). Kirkhope said in an interview that he had composed the rap (which was co-written by George Andreas) as a joke, and it was extremely under-appreciated in its time. Suggested ReadingThe Week In Games: Return To HyruleOffEnglishSuggested Reading“[People] were trying to compare me to credible rappers of the time who were superstars. I was like, ‘I’m just Grant Kirkhope, I’m nobody,’” he said. “I wasn’t trying to make a proper rap track, it was just supposed to be a bit of a joke.” It’s now been over two decades since the rap came out, and Kirkhope is in a very different place than he was back then. He’s been nominated for and won several music awards, and has many fans who think highly of his work. Elsewhere, the song definitely doesn’t get a lot of respect. Even Seth Rogen (who voices Donkey Kong in the movie) called it “one of the worst rap songs of all time.” “I was really looking forward to [seeing] my name in the credits for the DK Rap, but alas as expected it’s not there,” wrote Grant Kirkhope, the original composer. “FML.” Kotaku asked Kirkhope why he expected not to be credited for the rap, but did not receive a response by the time of publication.Whether the DK Rap is artistically accomplished or not isn’t important. Artists should always be credited properly whenever their art is reused in some way, especially since the original Mario composer Koji Kondo is named in the credits. Kirkhope didn’t even mind that people thought the rap was bad. He was just looking forward to seeing his name where it belonged: in the movie credits. “If you’d told me in ‘97, when I wrote the worst rap track in the history of rap tracks, that it would go on to be in a Mario Bros movie I would’ve burst with excitement!” he tweeted a week before the movie came out. “Long live the DK Rap!”
