jeena, in What are some good places to advertise your personal blog?
@jeena@jemmy.jeena.net avatar

I don’t think advertising the entire blog makes sense, but instead posting links to specific posts in the appropriate lemmy/reddit/facebook/mastodon community/group ao people get something out of it and then subscribe for more.

Apytele,

Oooh OP I like this one.

afunkysongaday, in What could my upstairs neighbor possibly be doing to make this much noise?

Did you already tell them there is a problem with the floor dampening and you hear every step very loudly? Surely you would not just expect them to know that they are not supposed to walk around in their own apartment and instead of talking to them tell everyone on the internet how bad they are? Because that would be pathetic.

NightAuthor,

My confrontation avoidance is pathetic, I’m working on it in therapy along w my generalized anxiety and other things.

But on the other hand, loud neighbors is a common issue in apartments, whether intentional or not… and idk, I just automatically try not to make a shit load of noise out of courtesy. Though, I’ve just recently learned that that behavior may be a byproduct of anxiety.

Also, it’s not as if I named and shamed them. There’s virtually no details about them at all.

intensely_human,

You should work on it in this situation too.

afunkysongaday,

Yeah tbh I went full contrarian with that comment don’t take it too seriously 😅 apologies for being so confrontational. Kudos for working on your issues!

It’s astonishing what kind of annoying asocial behavior people sometimes show while being absolutely unaware! We are all caught in our own stories sometimes and don’t always have good awareness of our sourrounding. The way you describe the situation it sounds like yes, they should be aware that they are loud, but it’s still very likely that they just aren’t! We’ve all been there!

Valmond, in Why do Germans have no sense of humour?

Obligatory german humor is the wurst.

fireweed, in What is your unpopular flim opinion

The Mario movie was incredibly mediocre, despite its high production value. I’m talking MCU-levels of truckloads of money spent with shockingly little to show for it.

I_Has_A_Hat,

Is this an unpopular opinion? I thought the reception to the new Mario movie was pretty damn tepid.

fireweed,

I can’t speak to its reception with film critics, but the word of mouth opinions I heard were very positive. It was also nominated for a number of Oscars.

I made it through 5 minutes before I stopped and deleted it. Most of the time I just close the player and plan on coming back to it when my mood is different, but with Mario I felt this visceral sensation of "nope."

No regrets.

NewNewAccount,

What expectations did you have going in?

@finthechat@kbin.social avatar

I don't follow advertising hype for anything because I generally despise advertising of all types, so I had no expectations for this movie. The only information I had about it beforehand was that Chris Pratt would be the voice of Mario instead of the longtime English voice actor.

One day not long ago, it was a trending torrent so I picked it up.

I guess I am very far from the target audience. Immediately the tone, pace of the editing, and the dialogue did not sit right with me. It felt like a worse version of Detective Pikachu, which I thought was average at best.

Norodix,

You mean the 93 movie? I loved that!

guriinii,

This is the only Mario film

Suck_on_my_Presence,

I finally watched it after hearing good things and wow, yep. Incredibly mediocre, cashing in on nostalgia.

I did enjoy the music, though, but probably mostly because of nostalgia and my love for NES/SNES Mario games.

@STRIKINGdebate2@lemmy.world avatar

Funny you mention the MCU because the audience for those movies is practically the same. For everything I’ve read and seen it basically sounds like a animated MCU movie

sbv,

Mediocre is too kind. The Mario movie was bad.

I took my kids. They kind of enjoyed it, but forgot about it almost immediately.

Godort,

When I first read this comment, I thought you were talking about Super Mario Bros (1993) and was about to throw hands. Because that movie is actually good, if deeply flawed. Its flaws make for a more entertaining movie altogether.

SCB, (edited )

John Leguizamo is a hidden gem of cinema so the OG Mario punches way above its weight class.

mjhelto,

If you like the YouTube channel “Some More News”, you should check out their “movie”. Yes, they made a movie and yes, it’s out there at times, but the way it ties real world to the 1990s Mario Bros movie is so fragmented that when they finally connect all the dots, it’s a mind blow!

@turkalino@lemmy.yachts avatar

Huge Mario fan here, I unironically think the 90s movie is better.

I wasn’t even born when that movie came out so don’t “hur durr nostalgia” me

Shyfer,

I’m still mad it basically kicked the DnD movie out of theaters. If it wasn’t for all the hype for Mario, I think the DnD movie would have done a lot better, but that’s partly their fault for choosing a terrible time to release a movie - a week or two before the biggest video game franchise of all time releases their movie.

coffinwood,

The story feels rushed and incoherent. Characters without character and chemistry. It’s a film in which every aspect of its production was solely determined by the amount of money that was put into it. If Jack Black can’t save a mediocre film…

spittingimage, in What's the funniest mishearing of song lyrics you've had?
@spittingimage@lemmy.world avatar

Brimful of Asha by Cornershop.

The title and the lyric are both “brimful of Asha”, which has a double meaning. In the singer’s native language ‘Asha’ means hope, and is also the name of an iconic Bollywood singer/dancer.

What I heard was “grim poodle basher”. Obviously it wasn’t right, but I couldn’t figure out the actual words just by listening harder.
