A road trip movie that's a spiritual remake of Planes, Trains, and Automobiles with Mario as Neal and Sonic as Del.

that's a good question, since that Sonic movies are made by Paramount and Mario movie is made by Illumination/Universal, and nobody knows if happens a collab between these companiesHow would a Mario vs Sonic movie even work? Yeah they're Rivals in a meta sense but there's really nothing in their characters that would compell them to be opposed in any interesting manner
It would also be like the early MCU where they didn't have access to many of the more popular Marvel heroes because their film rights were with other companies.I think it'd be kinda funny if they did a Smash movie but without any of those properties. Like one of the TV versions of the Justice League where they couldn't get the rights for Batman, Superman or Wonder Woman.

It would be fun if we had some quick animations outside the character reveals. Not necessarily a serialized thing, or even a full episode, but just some fun crossover antics they won't have a chance to do in the trailers or the game itself.I doubt a Smash movie is a good idea with how vastly different all the new Nintendo (and not to mention Sonic as well) movies are from one and other.
But I would be down for the idea of a standalone animated series based on it. You could have episodes dedicated to specific fights as well as an overarching story based on either the Subspace Emissary, World of Light, or maybe both. I feel like it'd be a good opportunity for more video game characters to be able to speak outside of their home series games (more so if they're not especially talkative or otherwise don't have many reasons talk in the games to begin with) as well as for characters from various different Nintendo and other video game company IPs to interact, something we haven't seen much of at all since the SSE and one cutscene in Ultimate, and the former case is pretty much completely devoid of dialogue.
I honestly think it's a concept that could be done very well. It'd just need to be a standalone project that spans several episodes instead of one or more films as part of some kind of incoherent cinematic universe.
