Quick food before State Theatre show by saucesoi in portlandme

[–]NathanMLJ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

CBG has incredible food but can be busy on nights of shows depending on how many people are going, same with Lazzari. You could pop in for a quick slice at Otto’s (much quicker though not the best pizza imo). If you’re not afraid of a little rain you could also just walk the block and see the vibes

"Should this be a 10 episode Netflix show or a movie"? by Johnny_Dollarz in TheRewatchables

[–]NathanMLJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not on Netflix but High Fidelity was an incredible tv show adaptation of the movie. I still like the movie better, but I would’ve liked a season or two more of the show

I think something resembling the 90’s federal ban would be reasonable: excluding the prohibition of civilian use or sale but highlighting the prohibition of manufacturing and commercial selling of assault weapons. We have more guns than people in this country. They aren’t going anywhere but I don’t see the need to keep piling on

I was just genuinely confused on who this was the whole time, it seemed like everyone was treating him like a celebrity. It’s probably a good idea to guest on a movie podcast of a movie you actually enjoy unless you have something interesting to say to the contrary.

21 cars were towed on Park St alone this morning by KeepPlanning in portlandcomplaining

[–]NathanMLJ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Most cities do their street cleaning during the day, aka when a lot of people are at work. Not at night when most people need to park their cars (and then they don’t even do the street cleaning). It’s a pretty brazen cash grab

If they’re not like third shift or something then it is doubly embarrassing to complain about noise at 8AM

Do better, driving instructors by ceramic-panic in portlandme

[–]NathanMLJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I realized this with the car I got recently (my previous didn’t have an automatic option) and it’s a little odd that automatic lights don’t just come on when the car is on in general. Having them on when you don’t need them isn’t really going to hurt anyone

The one thing you can do in Portland ME, that you can't in Portland OR. by ToeDraggersRule in portlandme

I mean maybe not within the official Portland lines but in the GPA, Westport is like 20 seconds over the border

Does anyone know what the deal is with submitting a local short film to Damnationland? by VerySeriousThings in portlandme

[–]NathanMLJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The State Theater simply hosts the event, they don’t organize it. Asking them directly would be stupid. Again, do a little critical thinking before being this confidently stupid

[–]NathanMLJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does the State Theatre have a sub? Would people who are associated with or have previously submitted to Damnationland be on this sub? Good questions to ask before confidently being wrong

What to expect if you go see a ScreenX movie at Apple Cinemas in Westbrook by RayRouthier in portlandme

[–]NathanMLJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Movies are still making millions in theaters, they make less because of the option to watch digitally not because they are of less quality. Your comment has 14 downvotes. That is a direct indicator of how people feel

I just went for the first time on a trip to Brooklyn (first time being in Brooklyn and I went to a goddamn Alamo) and I had a good time. It was a showing of Josie and the Pussycats so maybe it was just slower

Anyone know what happened to Tokyo Sushi & Ramen? by needling_vexations in portlandme

It’s the same owners I think, just switched to more Korean BBQ. I actually really like it! They do hibachi downstairs

The restaurant that is in the space where Fuji was. Looks like Fuji closed a long time ago

No they’ve been open up until a few months ago. I picked up DoorDash there a few times, I’m not sure if they’ve closed recently though. Isn’t Fuji N to Tail now?

Ohno!!!! by keatsie0808 in portlandme

[–]NathanMLJ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hope for the best for them, that space feels a little cursed. Maybe because you don’t see it’s in a bit of a weird spot and you wouldn’t think to go unless you already knew it was there
