Not for the first time, I've found the story behind the inspiration of the film more interesting than the film.
The idea of a down and out former gold rush town now resorting to becoming Cornish Pirates and using the cover of high vis to lure unsuspecting tourists to their death is a great premise. And it's very true that a one off shotgun murder is going to grab 100x the attention that of over a dozen road fatalities.
I just wish all of that was more present in the film.
I'm with JJ on the Mario merch... I still don't love the movie design for Mario but they've nailed Yoshi and unfortunately for my wallet I'm finding myself buying A LOT of bullshit. I don't remember the last time we got this type of all-out movie merchandising (Star Wars?)
I was that McMahon Increasingly Excited Meme when Woman mentioned being on a podcast about Chers movie career. At one point it seemed like my mom watched five and dime every weekend And of course we all could recite Moonstruck by heart.

David is right about The Magician’s Nephew being the best one
