The Mario movie is underrated and pretty damn funny. They continued from the cliffhanger ending in a comic book. It's pretty nifty.

I absolutely feel the only problem with the Mario Bros. movie was that it was too ahead of its time. It would have fit right in during the early-to-mid 2000s when grimdark reimaginings like that were all the rage.

I don't think I will ever stop finding this movie perfect in every way. The perfect storm that should have produce utter trash and yet, it was magical.

Mortal Kombat

Critics who didn't like it are the same kind of people who don't like durian just because it doesn't taste like other fruits.

Not retro, but does it seem like the writers of Black Sails spent too much time playing Buttbuttin's Creed 4: Black Flag? Do any other works contain the meme that "man o' war" means specifically a first rate ship of the line, when in actuality it was any vessel of HIS MAJESTY'S ROYAL NAVY? "Ship of the line" was a far more exclusive category.

I loved the Ys OVAs.
And also, the Fire Emblem OVA, too bad they didn't adapt the rest of the game.

Anyways, I hope Lucasfilm would make an Outlaws movie (yes, it's not gonna be retro if it's a current release, but it's based on a retro game that never got a sequel or even a remake), that will probably be the first great video game movie.
Or maybe a Lucasfilm movie saga based on Monkey Island.

Not a 1:1 version, but the Saturday morning Sonic cartoon was pretty much the same thing with furry animals fighting to save the environment from a cruel industrialist. Sonic being in the show is practically a last-second add-on given how he clearly does not fit the setting.
