Because if you’re going to hold the world to ransom, you might as well do it fabulously. He even has a ready prepared “battle sub”, which looks like something from ''Flash Gordon''. You can tell this version of Blofeld is a pulp science-fiction fan. He also has a [[LaughablyEvil wonderful wit]] -- this iteration of the character would certainly make an excellent dinner guest. ''“This farcical show of force was only to be expected: the great powers flexing their muscles like so many impotent beach boys,”'' he remarks at one point, as if he’s been waiting to use that one for a while now. When his giant laser ends up orbiting Kansas, he proves that you don’t get to lead an international terrorist organisation by taking yourself too seriously, “Well, if we destroy Kansas the world [[AcceptableTargets may not hear about it for years]].”"''

He's like the [[Franchise/StarWars Darth Vader]] of [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros this universe]]. And that's a lot of fun to play. You're the bad boy of this movie. It's like metal, the hardest rocking character, and mischievous. I could connect to it right away."''
