Super Mario Bros.

• Samantha Mathis as Princess Daisy
• Dennis Hopper as King Koopa

Brooklyn plumbers Mario and Luigi stumble into an underground world of highly evolved dinosaurs led by King Koopa. They fix a few broken pipes and rescue a kidnapped princess, but as you've probably guessed, this has little-to-nothing to do with the video game.

Favorite Moments:

• Bob Hoskins: "I believe the rent is three months overdue. That's what I believe."
• About Koopa: "He's not going to kill us. He's not that nice."
• Reteaming of Rocky Morton and Annabel Jankel from Max Headroom
• John Leguizamo has quite a lot to say about this movie in his book Pimps, Hos, Playa Hatas, and All the Rest of My Hollywood Friends: My Life
