Welcome to our 12th episode, "Gaming to Hollywood," where we explore the intersection of video games and movies. In this episode, we'll be discussing the ups and downs of video game adaptations and the challenges they face in the transition from the gaming world to the big screen.

This episode was inspired by the recent success of "The Last of Us" HBOMax adaptation, which is currently being released. We kick off with the originator of them all, the 1993 classic, "Super Mario Bros." This film was met with mixed reviews but has since become a cult classic. Despite its critical reception, it remains a prime example of how a video game adaptation can go wrong. As we continue to discover.

And finally, we'll have a brief update on the latest Hollywood news, including upcoming adaptations and projects in development. Whether you're a fan of video games or movies, or both, you won't want to miss this episode of "Gaming to Hollywood."
