There Will Be Brawl is a miniseries hosted by The Escapist, the website also known for hosting Zero Punctuation and Unskippable. Featuring live actors, it takes the most famous characters from Nintendo's library and puts them in a situation far removed from the bright and cheery childhood games we remember. The plot follows Luigi, who is now a jaded drug dealer trying to make ends meet in the seedy underworld of the Mushroom Kingdom for both himself and his brother. As the plot thickens and new dangers arise, Luigi searches for a reason to keep fighting for a city that seems beyond salvation.
In short: Super Smash Bros meets Sin City.
It's better than it sounds. It's currently up to Episode 6 out of 9 and I've enjoyed every episode. The acting is a lot better than I expected and overall I've been pleasantly surprised. If anything, it's worth watching up to Episode 3, if only for Samus.
You can watch it here on The Escapist or here, on the shows main site.
