    It's like a bunch of episodes of the Super Mario Brothers Super Show gone wrong...moreso, I mean. It's a testament to how rich the mythology of Mario is that it can be reinterpreted so many ways, right? Well,that's the standard schpiel that accompanies most wild re-imaginings of stories for family audiences, anyway.

    Dang those are dark. @FunkyPickle Rise of the Mushroom Kingdom was EPIC, but this article was about the DARK sides. @AuthorityFigure Its called Fanworks, things people want to do because they want to, its not even just mario, almost everything in the world has these.

    The white army wasn't that good either though. My great grand uncle was killed by them for being a jew.

    I don't understand the need for most of these expanded re-imaginings.

    The problem with the People's Mario is that the song used was actually the unofficial anthem of the White Army. I prefer it that way, being Russian-American my self.

    What about Rise of the Mushroom Kingdom?

    That POYKPAK video is one of my oldest favorites. <3
