Geek Girl Riot delivers the goods on The Super Mario Bros. Movie, the latest trailers, and soothing toons in the only way they know how—with Riotous consequences!
The Super Mario Bros. Movie
Sherin, Julian, and Renee kick off the show by talking about The Super Mario Bros. Movie, the bombastic adaptation of the beloved video game franchise. Sherin says, “The Super Mario Bros. Movie is going to be exciting for families to watch together. It’s also so Easter egg-driven and so full of joy for the fans of all of the Mario games.” Let’s-a-go watch it in theaters now!
What’s Up, Trailers?!
So many trailers dropped lately that this episode is bursting at the seams with our thoughts on ’em. Our Rioters start the conversation with Blue Beetle and compare how it holds up to the many, many, many iterations floating in the DC Universe.
Then they switch over to Across the Spider-Verse, the hotly anticipated new animated Miles Morales chapter. We don’t think we could get any more hyped for this one but Sherin, Renee, and Julian are about to crank it up to eleven.
Next up, our hosts explore the new Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny trailer, which has some interesting choices—but hey, when Indy calls, we all get roped into watching, right?
Star Wars Celebration
We can’t talk about new trailers without shouting out Ahsoka, who is finally getting her own show—we love to cheer on this wild wicked warrior! That leads our Rioters into the news from the recent Star Wars Celebration, highlighting what they’re looking forward to and what they want to see light up the galaxy next.
Soothing Toons
Alex and Philip jump on with Sherin to revisit some soothing toons. They share some of the properties that make their hearts happy, including Bee and PuppyCat, Central Park, Steven Universe, and more! Alex says, “Every time you watch [Central Park], you just have a huge smile on your face because you know that nothing bad is gonna happen—it’s just shenanigans all the time—and it’s great.”
