Background
King Koopa, often Koopa and also referred once as President Koopa, is the primary antagonist of the Super Mario Bros. film, portrayed by the late Dennis Hopper. He represents Bowser, the main antagonist of the video game franchise on which the film was based. The character is portrayed as the corrupt, unopposed ruler and self-proclaimed "president" of Dinohattan. Unlike his in-game counterpart who is a Koopa, President Koopa, like the other inhabitants of Dinohattan, is a humanoid of reptilian origin, descending from the Tyrannosaurus rex.
He is portrayed as a former subject of Dinohattan's rightful king, who revolted and took control of the realm from him. He later plotted a full-scale assault and takeover of Earth, which he would achieve by reuniting and merging the two dimensions into one by inserting the meteorite shard owned by Princess Daisy back into its proper place.

Equipment
- De-Evolution Gun: The Devolution Gun is a powerful weapon in the Super Mario Bros. film. It was mainly used by President Koopa. The device could be used to mobily access the raw power of de-evolution into a gun. When it hits a victim, it will turn them into their ancestral species. It can transform humans into primates, having been designed specifically as weapons against the Mammalian dimension. Hitting a denizen of the Dinosaur dimension, however, will result in the person de-evolving into their ancestral species. It is used in the movie by President Koopa, where he aims it at the Mario Bros., in order to stop Mario and Luigi from trying to save Daisy and thus halt his plans of conquest, although he wasn't able to fire at them. Koopa, upon the merging of the dimensions, used the Devolution gun on Mario, although it accidentially hit Anthony Scapelli, which he was nonetheless amused at. He later attempted to attack Mario with it again, although Mario knocked it out of his hands when using some fungus to shield himself from the Devolution rays of the gun. It is finally used by the Mario Bros. to devolve the dictatorial President Koopa into a Tyrannosaurus Rex (Koopa's ancestral species). They go even further to where he devolves into primordial ooze.
- Fry Guy Flamethrower: The fireball gun, also known as the flamethrower, flame thrower, fireball thrower, and flame-throwing gun, is a weapon used in the Super Mario Bros. film. As its name suggested, it shoots fireballs as opposed to bullets. President Koopa threatens Mario and Luigi with a fireball gun during their battle, only to be launched into an empty vat by a Thwomp Stomper-using Mario. When the dimensions merge, the fireball gun malfunctions, forcing Koopa to discard it for a Devolution Gun. Upon returning to Dinohattan, Koopa manages to get the gun to work again and fires it at the Mario Bros., only to miss and hit a Koopa propaganda poster depicting him kissing a baby, enabling the brothers to get a clear shot at him with Devolution Guns.
Other
Standard Tactics: Koopa will either use the fireball gun or de-evolution gun.
Weaknesses: Nothing notable.
Note: The webcomic sequel is canon.
