I have tried it in the terminal as you can see from my terminal output:
eltume@G41M-ES2l:~$ mplayer -vo gl /home/eltume/Videos/Super (2010).avi
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('.

I'm afraid you need to enclose the file in quotes:

mplayer -vo gl "/home/eltume/Videos/Super (2010).avi"

I've tried chaning the aspect ratio. I will try using mplayer and not
gnome-mplayer to play the video.

Yep, in the end it's mplayer that makes all the hard job :-)

When I play via mplayer the resolution is perfect. It completely fullscreen.
The playback on the other hand is terrible. It freezes and goes in slow
motion. So is there a way I can get the resolution and playback to work in
gnome-mplayer?

Mmmm, couldn't be that gnome-mplayer detects that the current resolution
can cause errors in playback and automatically switches into a more
sensible one to prevent the video slowness?

In addition, have you tried by running gnome-mplayer from console with
"-v" (verbose) switch?
