The very end of the teaser features Toad and Yoshi trying to protect Baby Mario and Baby Luigi from a realistic dinosaur – though their defense mostly involves running away!

As a huge film and pop culture fan, I was really excited to see Jaden Smith make his debut as Christian Louboutin’s first men’s creative director earlier this month! It all went down during Paris Fashion Week, and it looked like a pretty big event. Of course, his parents, Will and Jada, were there to support him, and photographers captured them enjoying the show. Apparently, according to a source who spoke with People magazine, they seemed really happy and proud to be there.
