The '''Koopa General''' is a supporting antagonist of ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]''. He is a [[Koopa Paratroopa]] sporting a blue-colored shell with spikes, blue boots, a blue-plated gorget with shoulder guards, and a spiked blue helmet with [[Bowser]]'s symbol on it. The Koopa General is the captain of the [[Koopa Troop]], and he is portrayed as much more stern and rigid than his soldiers. He is first seen guiding the Koopa Paratroopas as the army attacks the [[Snow Kingdom (The Super Mario Bros. Movie)|Snow Kingdom]], and he is seen restraining the [[Penguin King]] after [[Kamek]] forces him and [[Penguin|his subjects]] aside. The Koopa General is later seen with the Koopa Troop at the celebration of acquiring the [[Super Star]] on Bowser's [[Bowser's Castle|airship]], where he listens to Bowser's victory speech. Later, he interrupts Bowser and Kamek acting out the former's marriage proposal to [[Princess Peach|Peach]] and informs him that the [[Kong army]], joined by Peach and [[Mario]], intends to surprise them by taking a shortcut via [[Rainbow Road]]. The Koopa General then guides the counter-offensive by riding a giant bulldozer with maws towards Mario. Determined to kill Mario, he destroys Mario's [[Standard Kart]] with two [[Bullet Bill]]s from his vehicle and then a [[Pipe Frame]] Mario hijacked from one of the [[Koopa Troopa]]s, but he manages to hide from the Koopa General on his bulldozer and get onto [[Donkey Kong]]'s kart, who blows up the Koopa General's bulldozer with a [[Rocket Barrel]]. As Mario and Donkey Kong drive away, the Koopa General emerges unharmed from the explosion. Enraged, he throws away his spear and helmet and retracts into his [[Spiny Shell (blue)|blue shell]], then flies at the two and explodes on them, destroying the road and making them plummet to the sea below and get eaten by a [[Maw-Ray]]. Later, however, Mario and Donkey Kong manage to cooperate and escape. The Koopa General is not seen again for the rest of the film.
