MARIO'S NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS is a short created for College Humor's geeky sister site, Dorkly.com, accounting for Mario's whereabouts on Christmas Eve, 2010. Based on the classic Night Before Christmas poem that we all know and love, the accompanying narrative tells the tale of Mario's efforts to thwart Bowser's plan to rule the Mushroom Kingdom once again. The animation is scored by a couple of festive tunes, combining the catchy soundtrack from Super Mario World with contemporary Christmas music.
