Seth Rogen Donkey Kong Laugh Cut Last Minute From Super Mario Bros Movie
In a shocking turn of events, it has been revealed that Seth Rogen’s iconic laugh was cut last minute from the now-soon-to-be-critically-panned “The Super Mario Bros Movie”.
According to insiders, Rogen, who voiced Donkey Kong in the film, was originally intended to use his signature laugh in a hype-worthy post-credit scene. However, Nintendo, the company behind the Super Mario Bros franchise, reportedly had the scene removed.

“We were really excited to have Seth on board to voice Donkey Kong,” said a representative from Nintendo. “But when we heard him laughing in the recording studio, we just knew it wasn’t right for the character.”
Fans of Rogen were understandably disappointed by the news. “Seth’s laugh is a big part of what makes him funny,” said one fan on social media. “Without it, Donkey Kong just sounded like any other generic animated character.”
So while fans are excited about the Donkey Kong redesign for the movie, many fans are upset to hear that the iconic Seth Rogen laugh will be missing from the film.

Only time will tell if Rogen’s absence will have a negative impact on the success of the film. But one thing is for certain: fans are furious that the iconic laugh was tragically cut from the Super Mario Bros. Movie.
