Matt aka Stormageddon emerges from a pipe to surprise Case and Sam with the power up of a movie, The Super Mario Bros. Movie! Can they make it through with only three continues?   Music by Vin Macri and Matt Brogan Podcast Edited by Sophia Ricciardi   Overview   In the podcast recording discussion titled "Another Pass at The Super Mario Bros Movie," hosts Case Aiken and Sam Alicea, joined by guest Matt (Stormageddon), delve into their cinematic experiences of the 2023 film, praising its 92-minute runtime and appeal to both children and nostalgic adult fans. They highlight standout performances, notably Jack Black as Bowser and Anya Taylor-Joy as a proactive Princess Peach, while critiquing Chris Pratt's portrayal of Mario as merely average. The hosts discuss the film's visual splendor and numerous Easter eggs, though they express disappointment over its reliance on pop music rather than classic Mario compositions. Despite some criticisms of the plot's formulaic nature and suggestions for improvement, the overall consensus is positive, deeming the film entertaining while respecting the franchise's legacy; potential sequels and upcoming projects are also touched upon as they conclude the episode.   Notes Introduction to The Super Mario Bros Movie Discussion (00:02 - 08:33) Matt (Stormageddon) returns as a guest to discuss The Super Mario Bros Movie (2023) Case Aiken introduces podcast with co-host Sam Alicea The hosts discuss their viewing experiences of the film The 92-minute runtime is highlighted as a positive factor that keeps the movie from overstaying its welcome Initial thoughts: The film works well for both children and nostalgic adult Nintendo fans Cast Performance and Character Representation (08:33 - 18:50) Jack Black as Bowser receives unanimous praise as a standout performance Anya Taylor-Joy as Princess Peach also praised for making the character active rather than a damsel Charlie Day as Luigi received positive reviews Chris Pratt as Mario described as 'just fine' - not as bad as internet feared but not exceptional The group appreciates Charles Martinet's cameo as Mario's father and Giuseppe The opening commercial sequence featuring the 'Super Mario Super Show' song noted as a clever homage Keegan-Michael Key's performance as Toad highlighted as charming The film successfully modernizes Princess Peach as a proactive character rather than a damsel in distress Music, Visuals and Fan Service (18:50 - 30:01) Major criticism: The film relies too heavily on pop music needle drops instead of using iconic Mario game music Case and Matt express disappointment that classic Koji Kondo compositions weren't featured more prominently The DK rap inclusion was appreciated, though Grant Kirkhope wasn't properly credited initially The visual design receives high praise, described as 'one of the most gorgeous animated films' they've seen The group appreciates the many Easter eggs and references to various Mario games Notable references: Mario Kart customization, power-ups, Rainbow Road, and Luigi's Mansion sequence Film balances content for children with nostalgic references for adult fans of the games ️ Plot Structure and Pacing (30:01 - 40:01) The basic plot follows Mario Brothers from Brooklyn to the Mushroom Kingdom Main criticism: The plot feels 'paint by numbers' and moves from set piece to set piece for fan service The hosts appreciate the quick pace preventing the film from becoming boring Donkey Kong's substantial role questioned as potentially excessive for this film The 'plumbing scene' at the beginning described as feeling too 'illumination-style' and skippable The Mario Kart sequence, while visually impressive, doesn't serve the plot significantly The movie makes excellent use of character power-ups during action sequences Luma (star creature) from Mario Galaxy highlighted as a standout supporting character Suggested Improvements (40:01 - 50:06) Matt suggests removing or reducing the Kong Kingdom sequence to streamline the story The hosts discuss using more game music instead of pop songs for needle drops Fred Armisen's casting as Cranky Kong questioned; suggestions of other older actors who might have been better The group agrees the final act works well in terms of hero's journey storytelling Suggestions that Donkey Kong could have been integrated differently - as a mid-boss or obstacle rather than major character Discussion of how the film could have better incorporated game mechanics into the storytelling The movie's brief runtime (92 minutes) praised as preventing it from overstaying its welcome Final Thoughts and Future Discussion (50:07 - 01:00:38) Overall positive consensus: While not groundbreaking, the film is entertaining and respects the source material The film succeeds as a fun, colorful movie for kids while providing nostalgic entertainment for adults Comparison to other video game adaptations like Detective Pikachu and Sonic Discussion of potential sequels and the upcoming Donkey Kong movie The hosts appreciate the film's visual quality while acknowledging its formulaic approach to storytelling Matt mentions returning for future episodes to discuss the Venom movies Discussion wraps with information about where to find the hosts and their other podcasts

Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we complete our series on Eye of the Beholder. We talk more about D&D adaptation, spend some time with a sequel, and get to our takeaways before emptying the mailbag. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Issues covered: which levels count in the sequel, killing lots of beholders, whether you could have killed Xanathar in the original, striation of hit point values, scaling for sense of power, paying off on the quests, finding all the beholders, beholder physiology, having more fun with beholders as designers, bulettes and basilisks, "just keep going," being trained for level navigation, designing towards the player understanding, wanting coordinates, using simple concepts well, modular repeatable and combinable concepts, leaning into the limitations, an onion layer level, "mapping matters," loving drawing maps, sanding off of friction (various ways of telling the player how to get there), being more embodied in the dungeon, the more you take out the less the experience becomes, allowing for abstraction and having to draw you in other ways, translating D&D, why simulate the math, a bad game to simulate, "what is a saving throw?," using video games to inform the evolution of your tabletop game, emphasizing the human, a more elegant system, dice variance, a useless party experience, usability issues, bad games that were influential on us, remembering movie moments but not the gameplay, even bad actors are better than what we could do at the time, digging into all the RPGs, not knowing what to do in SimCity, DOS vs Mac music and early audio, a craftman's respect for audio, warm analog music, hearing multiple versions of the same soundtrack, not playing a lot of real-world games, physics in games and pitting against fun, wanting to get to specific rides vs how you build a park, Tim gets turned off on the CRPG book, building on foundations and the legacies they carry, business concerns, shipping code passing cert, climbing uphill to make changes, maintaining the feel.

Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we insert a bonus interview into the middle of our series on GoldenEye 007. We speak with Grant Kirkhope, one of two composers on the title.

Podcast breakdown: 0:58 Interview 1:03:57 Break 1:04:32 Outro Issues covered: starting at Rare in '95, composing in hex, the imposing approach to programming, fitting in 1 Mb, making a clarinet from one note, limiting your palette, looping your cymbal decay, working within your limits, downsampling from 44.1 kKz and using the EQ, working from good tunes rather than a huge palette, getting a degree in trumpet and living the musician life, the dole and mom's house, sending in casette tapes, having a meg of memory to play with, going to Disneyland, a farm in the middle of nowhere with teams in stables, a family affair, GameBoy in the morning and GoldenEye in the afternoon, limiting who could be in what building, a culture of friendly rivalry, taking ideas and building on them, brilliant bosses, being into the Bond films, the best film releases of every year, not knowing what you're doing, working on the multiplayer in secret, "not pleasing anyone a lot but pleasing a lot of people a little bit" these days, coming up with the idea in the morning and doing it in the afternoon, the indie spirit, small teams, making the engine you need and no extraneous bits, building games like Nintendo, working from two or three sentences, how does this thing sound (spiky things vs forest things), messing around until you hear what you like, instinctual, developing from an emotional sense, delving into Statue Park, trying to find the John Barry magic, being afraid you're going to get fired and instead moving on to another project, getting a chance to film all the sets, having the magic destroyed, a game that just kept selling and selling, the godfather of trap music, pause music becoming the soundtrack of the game, falling into games without training, music living on when the games don't necessarily, things that get into your head as a child, remembering what you've done, making someone's favorite game, having quite a journey, games as not a destination for composers, having a scene.

Co-composers Graeme Norgate and Grant Kirkhope sit down together to reflect back on scoring GoldenEye 007 for the Nintendo 64! Surprisingly, in nearly 26 years this is the first time that Graeme and Grant have spoken publicly about the score together! Graeme and Grant take us back to the mid 90's where the two of them found themselves working for Rare Limited; a game developer based out in the English countryside. Hear the origin story of how the two met, what it was like working at Rare in those early days, and how the two of them found themselves working on GoldenEye 007. The duo talk about the technological limitations of the time, how they rarely worked on the game at the same time during its lengthy delayed production, how they had complete freedom with the music, and how the levels were scored simply based off short descriptions and early art. Both Graeme and Grant are open about how they really had no idea what they were doing at the time as two young composers. You'll hear how Graeme handled the "sound design" of the game, and where he found what are now the legendary death grunts of the enemies as well as the sounds of each gun. You'll also hear great stories like how Grant scored the now legendary pause music, which of the NPC's were modeled with their faces as an easter egg, and much more. We also look at how long it took for them to realize that the game was a hit, and the years leading into Perfect Dark. This is truly a special conversation for anyone who grew up playing GoldenEye 007 with friends at every sleepover till your thumb was raw from pushing around that infamous N64 joystick. And hopefully if you're new to the game, you can learn how a small group of passionate people accidentally made one of the most iconic video games of all time.

Hi-Fi Rush, GoldenEye 007 and Fire Emblem: Engage are among the games we've been playing lately – those are the focus of this episode, along with a barrage of listeners questions that vary between insightful and nonsensical. This week's music is from the GoldenEye 007 soundtrack by Graeme Norgate, Grant Kirkhope and Robin Beanland. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We're back with another dose of Nintendo news, game impressions and discussion! Join us as we discuss: Credits: Panelists: Andrew – @PlayCritically Sylvie – @StwTwo Rosalie – @LilRecordGirl Edited by: Andrew Brown Interludes: Craig Windle – @CraigedyCraig / Windmills at Dawn Music: Watch Theme and Surface 1 – Grant Kirkhope, Robin Beanland, and Graeme Norgate […] The post N-Focus #217 – Golden years appeared first on GAMEPODULAR.

This week Jason speaks to Grant Kirkhope, video game composer extraordinare, to talk about his Goldeneye 007 soundtrack as the game re-releases today. Next, Jason gives some tips on how to play Goldeneye and what to expect, and finally he lists five games that, unlike Goldeneye, likely won't ever release again.

We walk through boring gray hallways for the entirety of this episode. We kind of stop explaining it, so if you're ever wondering what's happening while we talk about toilet humour in JoJo for the nth time just remember everything is gray and boring and this game sucks and is bad. The Orange Juice thing is from 4PlayerPodcast and the songs I played were Spiral Mountain by Banjo-Kazooie and my dad Grant Kirkhope, Stuck in the Middle With You by Stealers Wheel who probably wrote more than just that song but the jury's out, the X-Men Animated Series intro, the song by Beck from Odelay that has a synonym for 'butt' in the title that I don't want a Google robot to read and blacklist me for foul language, In A Jar by Dinosaur Jr., All Your Kayfabe Friends by Los Campesinos!, which is unfortunate that I had two bands with punctuation in their names because now those commas look weird, and Toilet of Venus by Me Rex. Also this is for no one but me, but I think the electricity sounds right around the one hour mark are the exact same as Storm Spirit's zip in Dota 2. Neat.

The Scrollies Sqadnado gets one step closer to running this bit out of use! Rat and Sqat share their fourth picks. Ratnado talks about the stylish Shoji Meguro and his work on the Persona series, Shin Megami Tensei, and other Atlus games such as Catherine and Trauma Center. Meanwhile, in true Sqat fashion, Sqat talks about Grant Kirkhope and his varied soundtrack iconic from the N64 ages to now, including discussing the Project Dream SNES canceled game with Kirkhope's soundtrack that would be repurposed for Banjo Kazooie!Check out Ratnado's playlist on Spotify with some great Shoji Meguro songs, as well!

Louise Blain explores the lighter side of gaming soundtracks with a look at music for some of the wittiest games on the screen and talks to composer Grant Kirkhope. The programme looks at some of the ways humour appears in games and in gaming scores and features music from Oli Woods' 'Worms WMD', Peter McConnell's 'Psycholnauts 2', River Boy's 'Cult of the Lamb', Christopher Heral's 'Rayman Legends', Ryan Ike's 'West Of Loathing', Dan Golding's 'Untitled Goose Game', Toby Fox's 'Undertale' and the 'Stanley Parable' from the Blake Robinson Synthetic Orchestra. The programme also features cues from 'Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope', 'Yooka-Laylee' and 'Kingdons of Amalar - Reckoning' by Grant Kirkhope and this month's HiScore is Gareth Coker's 'Immortals - Fenyx Rising'.

The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe a Mexican probe in to a Russian probe in 1995 whereby a glowing flying saucer may have visited, or even landed, in Ostankino, Moscow. We know this because there is a video but we don't have the video, but we do have stills from the video, yet we don't know how they came from the video. Could these photos indeed be depicting a UFO visit, or are they simply depicting the sun? Or is the whole thing a hoax? Or is this a military coverup? Or is this government disinformation to cover up what the military are really up to? There's a lot but also not too much to this one, ey. Just to be clear, we will be referring to some photos quite extensively throughout this probe (visual evidence, woooo) so you may want to check out our Instagram or Facebook group or at the very least, Google this event so that you can see what we are on about. Alongside the case, we today learn about Moonwalker's tattoos. We also debate what Moonwalker's evil methods would be if Moonwalker was a Bond villain… All that and more on this week's file.   YouTube video of Tercer Milenio coverage: https://youtu.be/83vHBMobAbU    YouTube UFOMania video of this event: https://youtu.be/_fP95haxn7E     Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/butitwasaliens   Store: https://butitwasaliens.co.uk/shop/     Probe us: Email: butitwasaliens@gmail.com Instagram @ ButItWasAliensPodcast Twitter @ ButItWasAliens Facebook: @ ButItWasAliens - join Extraterrestrial Towers     Music:  Music created via Garageband.

We opened today with the Showtime theme from Beetlejuice which was composed via Danny Elfman and is a 1988 Tim Burton classic (distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures). We did that, basically, because it was indeed, showtime! As we discussed Goldeneye (the movie and Nintendo 64 classic), we included two themes from the N64 game developed by Rare and composed by Grant Kirkhope, Robin Beanland and Graeme Norgate. Those themes are called elevator b and subterranean caverns. As is becoming tradition, we closed out with the Staff Roll aka credits theme from 1990-1992's Super Mario World on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) composed by Nintendo's audio wizard, Koji Kondo.     Main source: https://amp.ibtimes.co.in/did-aliens-visit-russia-1995-ufo-video-broadcast-by-russian-tv-channel-claims-so-772408

Grant Kirkhope chats about his music for Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope

The feud between Sony and Microsoft surrounding the Xbox maker's attempted acquisition of Activision Blizzard has continued to heat up, so for our main topic this week, we're looking at a roundup of Sony vs Microsoft headlines. This includes Sony's claim that Microsoft is trying to turn it into Nintendo, Sony's assertion that Xbox Game Pass has reached 29 million subscribers, and Microsoft's admission that "many" PlayStation exclusives are "better quality" than those on Xbox.We'll also be discussing how Phil Spencer has all but confirmed that The Elder Scrolls VI will be an Xbox console exclusive, how Sonic creator Yuji Naka has been arrested in an insider trading scandal, China's claims that it's solved youth game addiction, and the upcoming video game console that's tailored for dogs.Finally, Donnie takes us all the way back to November 1998 with his Retro Rewind.Listen to A Video Gaming Christmas by Kev Bayliss, David Wise, and Grant Kirkhope on Spotify and help support the Special Effect charity!- https://open.spotify.com/album/7Midl1uxvPs35TfAotXEloTo support Special Effect directly, visit https://www.specialeffect.org.uk/Listen to our interview with Kev Bayliss! - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-21-its-on-like-donkey-kong-a-conversation/id1603295416?i=1000560962868Listen to our guest appearance on A Gamer Looks at 40! - https://www.buzzsprout.com/1426576/11712191-ep-57-a-live-read-of-the-nintendo-power-legend-of-zelda-comic-w-gamers-week-podcastWe love our sponsors!

It's also finally here! Altermentality joins Hyle once more for yet another much-delayed discussion on Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, this time for the Donkey Kong Adventure DLC! But more than just DLC, it's actually a lovingly-crafted Donkey Kong game that, in this vast desert of Kongtent, any DK fan thirsty for some Kong juice would be wise (or Kirkhope) to lap up!

It's finally here! Altermentality joins Hyle for a much-delayed discussion on Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle! In the first of two episodes, we recap the long history of Mario RPGs and how they led us to Kingdom Battle. We then chat about how the base game struck us, specifically as Donkey Kong and Rare fans!
