That final boss theme is one of the most menacing in the Mario series. The buildup going into the actual theme is just divine. The bossfight itself is also pretty cool, using the ability to throw items upwards to hit Bowser inside his clown car. A cool detail is that the propellor underneath can actually hurt you if you hit it. I haven’t seen that kind of attention to detail in any other Mario game.
