I don’t want them to have the personalities these shallow hollywood faggots are gonna inject into these beloved characters. Mario and co. already have just as much personality as they need, it wouldn’t have endured so long as a franchise if they didn’t.
Going to disagree with both you and Hollywood there. Mario has no personality, nor should he. He's the generic everyman protagonist he ought to be, just like Link or Samus. I don't want Mario to be anything but a vehicle for a fun game.
Luigi, on the other hand, is steeped in personality despite speaking a total of maybe five words throughout the entire game series. But his personality comes from actions, not words. He shouldn't even have lines. Except, perhaps, for "Maaaarioooo!".
Luigi has enough personality that the unnecessarily good Rabbid spinoff has half his moves be references and memes based around his history. Whereas Mario by comparison has his own game mechanics his moves.
You're thinking of Master Chief or Gordon Freeman, at least initially. All of these characters end up having massive backstory and personality after being loved characters for decades.
The best example you have is "Commander Shepard", which literally can't be isolated down, because the story arc of this character is too divergent per person.

Mario has personality, about as much personality as Mickey Mouse, which is just as much as he needs which is what my point was.

I'd rather watch a japanese version, if that had been the original language. They care about voice acting way more.
