The only bad illumination movies are Hop, Secret Life of Pets, Sing and Minions.
A lot of the others are a bit mediocre
If they take the despicable me route (minus minion stuff) I could see this movie working possibly. But it's still illumination and the budget will be like 5 dollars lmao. That will be the problem. I wish mario would be handled by a company who gives movies higher budgets. I don't want model reusing in the same scene you know.
