Do you think there should be a CGI Mario movie?

I take it you haven't seen Wall-E, Mr. Fan.

It works in WALL-E because most of the movie is silent. You can't have a silent protagonist with everyone else talking around him. That would be weird. Plus we have a reason for WALL-E silence, he's a robot. But Mario's human, and if there are other humans in this movie talking but he isn't everyone is going to be wondering why.
It worked in Super Mario Sunshine, Super Mario RPG, the Paper Mario series, Mario and Luigi, etc.

Besides, the times we see Mario talk are annoying to hear. I'd rather have Mario silent instead of a chatterbox.

Let's review Mario's voice actors over the years.

Peter Cullen- Can't tell, I haven't seen Saturday Supercade.
Captain Lou- He's dead, so he couldn't do Mario.
Walker Boone- Meh.
Marc Graue- NO!!!!!!
Charles Martinet- He's probably the best choice, and Martio (Martinet + Mario) is usually silent.

Anyway, I was thinking that during the movie, Luigi could say something like, "Hey, Bro. How come you never talk?" and then Mario could just shrug his shoulders.
I'm actually giving Mario dialogue but he's not gonna speak in that high pitched itallian accent he's just gonna speak our language
:???:

He already speaks our language, silly.

Why do you want to give Mario dialogue so badly anyways? What part of "silent protagonist" don't you understand?

Plus, American's not a language.
I want to give him dialogue because it's a movie! not a game! In the shows he spoke but not in an itallian accent
 
Mario being totally silent like Gromit would be odd. I think he should talk, just like that press conference.

Wall-E is a movie :)...
According to Koopaul, it's because

A. Wall-E is a robot.
B. Nobody talked in that movie.

I find his excuse pretty flimsy though, as many other people talked including

Captain McGuirk
Auto
That live-action guy whose name I forget
Mary and John
The people in that video Wall-E was watching.

So I agree with you, Pokemon of Rule 34.

@LGM: He wouldn't be totally silent, he'd occasionally say "Yahoo!" and "Here we go!" and "It's-a me, Mario!" and stuff like that.
 
I think that hardest part is giving Mario an interesting personality. Usually, main characters in a movie have some sort of personality. I wouldn't want a flat character as a main character in a movie.

Here's a personality I'm giving him a depressed plumber who lives in Brooklyn, and also tries to make his and Luigi's lives better

A fat guy who likes spagetti.. There.. In the end he transforms into a new type of shy guy called fat guy..

No, I mean Mario, not Wario.

Mario should be this cheerful guy, but he gets bored of rescuing Peach. When Bowser steals Peach one more time, he doesn't want to. He wants to see what happens if he doesn't rescue Peach.
 
He's not THAT fat.

Piantas should be in the movie.
 
Nobody was ever this interested in talking about Piantas.

I thought you might get sick about it.

Really? You're going to make Mario a complete jerkass? While Bowser is doing the unspeakable to Peach?

Bowser: Hey, Princess? I need another soldier for my army-
Peach: No! Please, we've done this eight times already!
Bowser: Either that or I eat you.
Mario <sitting on the couch watching TV>: Meh.
 
Or maybe Mario wants to get rid of this plot once and for all by making some sort of Peach clone. Bowser kidnaps the Peach clone. However, the life at Mushroom Kingdom becomes 10x more boring.

Mind you, that this is directly from my head.

Why not have a 9th child?
 
Um... no. I'm aiming for a PG Mario movie.
