The Super Mario Galaxy Movie

Underdog Below average but still in the conversation
2026 · Family, Fantasy, Comedy, Adventure, Animation · Michael Jelenic, Aaron Horvath

45% across 71 head-to-head matchups puts The Super Mario Galaxy Movie on the wrong side of average. No round offers a foothold — below average at every stage. Built on the Mario film that turned bright video-game chaos into an all-ages hit, this one reaches for the Galaxy games, among the most beloved Nintendo ever made. For family night the pitch is easy fun for the youngest kids, with the kind of buried game references that keep nostalgic parents grinning. It ranks behind the other Michael Jelenic film tracked here. Voters pick in 1.8s on average — well under the 3.5s platform norm.

Having thwarted Bowser's previous plot to marry Princess Peach, Mario and Luigi now face a fresh threat in Bowser Jr., who is determined to liberate his father from captivity and restore the family legacy.
