AHHHHH! IM SO HAPPY YOU SAW THE MARIO MOVIE!!!
What was your opinion on (Spoilers)...
The reunion hug between the bros?!
My goodness, I have so many thoughts!
✨ Spoilers ahead, be warned!✨
--------------------------------------------------
The thing about this scene is that so much was said without words. Even before the hug, we get this:
My God, I love them! There is absolute pandemonium going on around them, and Luigi literally almost died, but they're so focused on each other that everything else fades away.
Then there's these frames. Mario's expression literally makes me tear up; he looks so close to tears. The way he clutches his chest, as if willing his heart to stop pounding. Telling himself that his brother is there, right in front of him, and that he's ok.
Then there's the hug itself. The way he cups Luigi's face to look him over, make sure he's ok, and cradling the back of his head protectively, UGH! It kills me every time I see it!
Ye, scoop up the baby bro! God, I just love this frame so much! 1) it shows how strong Mario is, and 2) showcases how he just wants Luigi as close to him as possible after everything that's happened.
Lastly, this one. The expressions are everything. Mario looks somewhere between relieved and worried, and judging by how tired Luigi looks in this shot, I don't blame him. He's really been put through the wringer; both of them have. You know for sure these two spent at least ten hours after this in a little cuddle pile, sleeping wherever they ended up collapsing.
In short, 10/10 scene, definitely cried.
