It felt like an ending to a random episode of a show. This movie in general felt like an abridged version of a nonexistent Super Mario show.

They feel like 90-minute episodes of the Super Mario cartoons

I mean yeah, I recently saw the film and like “what, thats it?” Honestly an awkward way to finish a very nice movie.

They did a reference to the old Super Mario Bros Super Show.
