When a short Flash animation like Mad Mad Mario hits Newgrounds and comes with a caveat like: “…me and my buddy drank way too many beers and came up with this little gem.  I about wrecked my voice on this one.” you can be fairly confident that what you’re about to see will be a total winner.

Well, I’m rather convinced that it’s a winner. I’m just not sure of what.  Because in this one, we’ll finally discover how Mario, of Super Mario Brothers fame, feels about continually rescuing Princess Toadstool from Bowser.  And it turns out, he’s not happy about it.

It’s sort of a one-note joke, but for all the time you’ll put into watching it, it’s worth the time just to see Mario’s fantastic rage blast and Bowser’s surprising reaction to Mario’s fury.  It’s funny, if a bit misogynistic and angry, but still–watching Mario have a screaming meltdown is no less funny for the awkwardness. This is worth the minute and a half or so you’ll put into it.
