to:
When he was a teenager, Creator/MaxLandis, writer of ''Film/{{Chronicle}}'', decided to make a script treatment for a movie based on the ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'' games. Ordinarily, this wouldn't be noteworthy, except that he decided to include every Mario character ever made at that point in time, including from the ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountry'', ''VideoGame/SuperMarioRPG'', and ''VideoGame/PaperMario'' subseries, as well as characters not part of ''Mario'' canon such as ''Franchise/{{Kirby}}''.
The result, ''Max Landis' Super Mario World'', was a ''436-page 7-hour epic'' that had Chuck Quizmo and Funky Kong as major characters, Wario as the BigBad, and a gritty feel that wouldn't be out-of-place in the ''Film/SuperMarioBros'' live-action movie mixed with series traditions of powerups, Goomba-stomping, and magic.
In [[TheEighties 1980s]] UsefulNotes/NewJersey, three children mysteriously vanish and are never seen again. They land in a mysterious world of mushrooms, giant bullets and more. Years later, Mario Cassavettes, a failed plumber and alcoholic, discovers the mysterious world and saves it from danger and evil. Now grown up, Craig and Patricia (Peach) Kline now rule over the land with peace and prosperity. However, Wario wishes to destroy the Mushroom Kingdom. Mario brings his brother, Luigi, to the Mushroom Kingdom where they engage in a war against Wario that will change the Mushroom Kingdom forever.
The script can be found [[https://web.archive.org/web/20150331030413/http://www.maxlandiswrites.com/super-mario-world/ here]].

!!This script contains examples of:
* AdaptationNameChange: E. Gadd's first name was changed from Elvin to Edward, and Candy Kong was apparently renamed Daisy Kong.
* AllIsWellThatEndsWell: Despite the ''massive'' amount of damage and death Wario wreaks, by the end of things almost everyone is happy, moved on, and back to normal.
* AscendedExtra: Chuck Quizmo was just a character who gave quizzes for Star Pieces in ''Paper Mario'', but is a major character here.
* AudienceSurrogate: The reader learns about the Mushroom World through Luigi's eyes.
* BigGood: Kirby acts as a guardian fairy of sorts, can only appear in times of great crises, points Luigi in the right direction several times, and [[spoiler:returns in the finale to drag Wario to Nightmare Land]].
* BloodlessCarnage: Mushroom Kingdom inhabitants turn into different things when they die, with Kremlings turning into foam, Mushroomers to spores, and Ninjis to ash.
* BystanderSyndrome: Queen Bean refuses to get involved in the war, seeing it as a Mushroom Kingdom problem.

* CanonForeigner: Craig doesn't have a canon counterpart.
* CurseCutShort: Mario says "Aw, motherfu-" after slipping while trying to grab a mushroom.
* DarkerAndEdgier: There's a lot of blood on the humans' end, as well as death, mental illness, and warfare on an epic scale.

* HealingFactor: Thanks to Mushrooms, especially 1-Ups, Wario is able to constantly heal himself during the final battle. [[spoiler:It takes dragging him to the real world to inflict damage that sticks]].
* HumanityIsSuperior: The Mushroom Kingdom's physics greatly favor humans, which is why Mario and Luigi are able to perform impossible feats. This is also why Wario is so dangerous, as his enhanced abilities and real-world military tech wreaks havoc on the kingdoms.

->''This script sucks.''
When he was a teenager, Creator/MaxLandis, writer of ''Film/{{Chronicle}}'', decided to make a script treatment for a movie based on the ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'' games. Ordinarily, this wouldn't be noteworthy, except that he decided to include every Mario character ever made at that point in time, including from the ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountry'', ''VideoGame/SuperMarioRPG'', and ''VideoGame/PaperMario'' subseries, as well as characters not part of ''Mario'' canon such as ''Franchise/{{Kirby}}''.
The result, ''Max Landis' Super Mario World'', was a ''436-page 7-hour epic'' that had Chuck Quizmo and Funky Kong as major characters, Wario as the BigBad, and a gritty feel that wouldn't be out-of-place in the ''Film/SuperMarioBros'' live-action movie mixed with series traditions of powerups, Goomba-stomping, and magic.
In [[TheEighties 1980s]] UsefulNotes/NewJersey, three children mysteriously vanish and are never seen again. They land in a mysterious world of mushrooms, giant bullets and more. Years later, Mario Cassavettes, a failed plumber and alcoholic, discovers the mysterious world and saves it from danger and evil. Now grown up, Craig and Patricia (Peach) Kline now rule over the land with peace and prosperity. However, Wario wishes to destroy the Mushroom Kingdom. Mario brings his brother, Luigi, to the Mushroom Kingdom where they engage in a war against Wario that will change the Mushroom Kingdom forever.
The script can be found [[https://web.archive.org/web/20150331030413/http://www.maxlandiswrites.com/super-mario-world/ here]].

!!This script contains examples of:
* AdaptationNameChange: E. Gadd's first name was changed from Elvin to Edward, and Candy Kong was apparently renamed Daisy Kong.
* AllIsWellThatEndsWell: Despite the ''massive'' amount of damage and death Wario wreaks, by the end of things almost everyone is happy, moved on, and back to normal.
* AscendedExtra: Chuck Quizmo was just a character who gave quizzes for Star Pieces in ''Paper Mario'', but is a major character here.
* AudienceSurrogate: The reader learns about the Mushroom World through Luigi's eyes.
* BigGood: Kirby acts as a guardian fairy of sorts, can only appear in times of great crises, points Luigi in the right direction several times, and [[spoiler:returns in the finale to drag Wario to Nightmare Land]].
* BloodlessCarnage: Mushroom Kingdom inhabitants turn into different things when they die, with Kremlings turning into foam, Mushroomers to spores, and Ninjis to ash.
* BystanderSyndrome: Queen Bean refuses to get involved in the war, seeing it as a Mushroom Kingdom problem.
* TheCameo: Several non-Mario characters make minor appearances, like Conker, Banjo and Kazooie, and the Duck Hunt dog.
* CanonForeigner: Craig doesn't have a canon counterpart.
* CurseCutShort: Mario says "Aw, motherfu-" after slipping while trying to grab a mushroom.
* DarkerAndEdgier: There's a lot of blood on the humans' end, as well as death, mental illness, and warfare on an epic scale.
* DeathByAdaptation: Several characters die that haven't in the games, including [[spoiler:Frogfucius, Cranky Kong and King K. Rool]].
* DoNotCallMePaul: After seeing Luigi for the first time in years, Wario says he prefers to not be referred to by his birth name, Wallace.
* {{Doorstopper}}: It's 436 pages and would be 7 hours long if it was ever made.
* TheEpic: It's 7 hours long and has detailed descriptions of just about everything and everyone, with war on a multi-realm scale and and requiring aid from nearly every heroic and villainous faction.
* GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere: Belome comes out of nowhere towards the very end of the script, mainly existing to give Luigi a foe to prove himself against.
* GunPorn: Every military apparatus Wario uses is designated properly and described in a good amount of detail.
* HealingFactor: Thanks to Mushrooms, especially 1-Ups, Wario is able to constantly heal himself during the final battle. [[spoiler:It takes dragging him to the real world to inflict damage that sticks]].
* HumanityIsSuperior: The Mushroom Kingdom's physics greatly favor humans, which is why Mario and Luigi are able to perform impossible feats. This is also why Wario is so dangerous, as his enhanced abilities and real-world military tech wreaks havoc on the kingdoms.
* TheLoad: When the various countries' representatives meet to discuss how to deal with Wario, Monty Mole, who's representing the Molemites, farts and acts impolite in general during the meeting.
* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: It includes every Mario character the author could find at the time the story was written.
* ManChild: Wario frequently throws tantrums when things don't go his way, and his impulsiveness and wanton destruction is also disturbingly childlike.
* MedalOfDishonor: Club Sugar is stated to be the worst club in Crampton, New Jersey, due to being the only one there.
* MythologyGag:
** Mario lines his pills up by color, referencing ''VideoGame/DrMario''.
** When Mario mentions finding various items from the brothers' childhood while cleaning Luigi's room, a VideoGame/{{paper Mario}} made in grade school is one of them.
** Just like in the ''ComicBook/NintendoComicsSystem'', Big Bertha has a crush on Mario, which he uses to his advantage.
* OmnicidalManiac: Unlike K. Rool or Bowser, who want to conquer things, Wario wants to ''destroy'' everything.
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Patricia mainly goes by Peach.
* RougeAnglesOfSatin: Billboards reading "WELCOM LEUGEE" welcome Luigi to the Mushroom Kingdom.
* SignsOfDisrepair: Over time, Crampton's sign falls apart and becomes "Crap on."
