SUPER MARIO BROS. MOVIE Facts You Didn't Know! #shorts

In The Super Mario Bros. Movie, the character Foreman Spike is portrayed as the former boss of Mario and Luigi, with all three of them having been rivals since childhood. Spike, who is voiced by Sebastian Maniscalco, has always been known as "Blackie" or "Blacky" in Japan due to his black beard, but his name was standardized as "Spike" in all regions after the film's release. While some have speculated that this decision was influenced by controversial Western political correctness, the real reason is likely due to the character's popularity and the fact that "Blackie/Blacky" was only his name in his debut appearance, when his beard was black. Additionally, the character's beard was not always black, and the name "Princess Peach" has since replaced "Princess Toadstool" in the international lexicon. Interestingly, the Pokémon Umbreon is still known as "Blacky" in Japan. #shorts #thesupermariobrosmovie #didyouknow #moviefacts #moviedetails
