Action. Treachery. Hilarity. These are the ingredients that make up The Blue Shell Incident, a 3D Movie Maker project and Super Mario Bros. fan-film by Swedish livestreamer and musician Joel Johansson (aka Vargskelethor) of the livestreaming group Vinesauce. Produced sporadically over the course of more than a year, the short acts as both an unusual foray into filmmaking for Joel and a love letter to 3D Movie Maker, which by the time of the film's inception was more than 20 years old and still had an active community attached to it.The story starts with Luigi drowning his sorrows in spaghetti at Toad's bar, depressed after losing his brother Mario in Zanzibar to the gun of Lasagna Ocelot (AKA Garfield). Luigi soon discovers a shocking truth, however—the Blue Shell Incident was a coverup, and Mario has been alive the whole time! Not only that, he's the mastermind behind the events and is out to kill his brother. Luigi must find a way to survive long enough to take Mario out... and figure out if he can trust that strange gun-wielding duck.The completed 26-minute film can be seen here, and its IMDb page here.See also Rat Movie: Mystery of the Mayan Treasure created by Jerma985, to which The Blue Shell Incident is a Spiritual Successor. |

Ambiguous Innocence: While Luigi is presented as the good guy of the film, Lasagna Ocelot offhandedly mentions that he pissed in Mario's Cheerios once. Of course, the audience doesn't know if he is correct or not, or egging Mario on as a part of his plan. |

comment |
Adaptational Villainy: Mario tries to kill Luigi because Mario lost a kart race because of him. He was also jealous of Luigi's dominant memes. Notably, the video takes some of Mario's trademarks and makes them Played for Horror. For example, when Mario eats a mushroom and grows enormous, he shouts some of his catchphrases ("It's-a me, Super Mario! Yahoo!") in a horrifyingly deep voice. "Lasagna Ocelot" is Mario's minion except that he's actually working for another villain. Scatman John is revealed to be a henchman that Mario hired as a body double. The Stinger reveals he was the Greater-Scope Villain of operation Blue Shell Kill. |

Kick the Dog: During the car chase, Mario runs over several people and feels absolutely no shame. Even backing up to doubletap CDI-Link for no reason, and eating a piece of a giant, sentient M&M he ran over. Santa is killed as a result of Garfield's helicopter crashing, and Garfield can't be bothered to care. Metal Gear McQueen fries Piglet with a laser for no apparent reason. |

He pretended to be Mario's underling, and allowed Mario to betray him to fake his own death. His final goals seem to involve the third missing Mario Brother and "The old man" (aka Grand Dad). |

Sequel Hook: During the stinger, it's shown that Scatman John was actually the bad guy all along, and it's heavily implied that he actually may be planning more than just this... |

| The Blue Shell Incident (Web Animation) / int_701c45bb |
comment |
Mario tries to kill Luigi because Mario lost a kart race because of him. He was also jealous of Luigi's dominant memes. Notably, the video takes some of Mario's trademarks and makes them Played for Horror. For example, when Mario eats a mushroom and grows enormous, he shouts some of his catchphrases ("It's-a me, Super Mario! Yahoo!") in a horrifyingly deep voice. |

Lasagna Ocelot/Garfield is completely uninjured after falling from the sky and crashing his already burning helicopter in the middle of the city. He also survives the destruction of Metal Gear McQueen. |

Intelligible Unintelligible: Strangely inverted. While the audience understands most of Duck's dialogue, the characters in-universe don't. The audience hears him speaking English, but on occasion, he instead speaks in mindless quacks, this being the other characters' point of view. That said, Luigi at least figures out that Duck is his ally early on when he helps him fend off Mario. |

Unexplained Recovery: It's never explained exactly how Mario fakes his death in Zanzibar Island, as the bullet was meant for Luigi and not him. The only thing we get is Mario claiming the blood was all Chef Boyardee. Similarly, Scatman John is revealed to be alive in The Stinger, despite emitting a pool of blood after Mario shoots him. |

No Indoor Voice: Mario shouts about 95% of his lines, and Wario shouts 100% of his. |

Complexity Addiction: It's not clear what Mario faking his death was supposed to accomplish, since just having Garfield shoot Luigi in the first place would have accomplished his goal |

Running Gag |
| The Blue Shell Incident (Web Animation) / int_f9f2c33 |
comment |
Running Gag: Characters, especially Toad, randomly being smashed by a falling Segway is a common sight. The Mario Bros making pasta and stereotypically Italian food puns, shown perfectly after the first Zanzibar Island flashback, with Mario and Luigi insulting each other with said puns. |

comment |
Accidental Murder: When Duck saves Luigi and shoots at Mario, he ducks and the bullet inexplicably ricochets across the room, hitting the bartending Toad and making his head explode. Nobody talks about it or mentions it after that. While chasing Mario, Luigi and Duck accidentally push a bystanding CDI Link by slowly walking into him. He proceeds to smash the back of his head against glass before dropping to the ground, dead. Like Toad, the characters don't seem to even notice. |
