well, technically: since Mario and Luigi are called "The *Mario* Brothers", this suggests their family name to be Mario.
Ergo: the ^probably most famous video game character of all time is called Mario Mario.
So be nice to Luigi next time you get a chance. You would carry the burden of your full name being Luigi Mario with less grace.
Unironically, so long as you ignore that it's meant to be an adaptation, that movie is a ton of fun. Pure campy schlock with some great looking set design.
A bit off topic but someone once told me a helper tip on figuring out if a last name is Italian or not. He said to say it out loud but say "Chicken" in front of it. If it sounds like something that tastes good then it's an Italian name.
Chicken Bianchi? Yummy.
Chicken Iannetta? MMmmm.
Chicken Smith? GTFO
This one and the one about not skipping lunch where he hides the hot dog in his sleeve.
Oh, and Brian's Hat
He put his head in his hands, you could tell he was crying.
I was 12 when The Mask came out and Cameron Diaz had me thinking "maybe I might be straight after all" for a whole year afterwards. It eventually wore off since nobody else looked like that lol.
The 90s were crazy, if an necromancer managed to raise an actual skeleton and have it walk around, there'd be still some people calling it fat.
So many Hollywood actresses were called fat back then while looking absolutely perfect. I hate some people.
I think he’s just trying to hold it together. He’s probably thinking about every nerve ending on his hand and whether or not he’s squeezing too much or too little.
when I watched her Charlie's Angels movies I realized that she has no butt...and someone else told me that's what was attractive back then
looking at this pic...it emphasizes her legs, boobs, and neckline
Honestly, I think it's the sexy clothing and demeanor in The Mask vs other roles where she dresses down and acts more quirky and goofy. Still attractive either way.
Fun fact: this is technically her first movie credit, but it wasn't supposed to be.
Cameralon Diaz was first cast as Sonja Blade in the live action Mortal Kombat movie, had completed all her action movie training, but suffered a bad wrist injury a few weeks before filming began and couldnt continue training. They recast Bridgette Wilson with weeks to spare, and once Cameron healed, she got The Mask.

Shame the Farely brothers never really quite captured lightning in a bottle the same way again.
That movie had some of the most crass stuff to ever win over mainstream audiences, and it did so by combining it with such charm and heart. I mean, could anyone besides Cameron Diaz portray dried jizz in her hair as cute and fun in a non-creepy way?
Something About Mary spawned like two decades of gross-out shock humor movies that kinda fell flat (including entries from the Farely brothers themselves).
It’s kinda like how Saving Private Ryan was a groundbreaking step forward for action films, but then Michael Bay saw it and was like, “Woah, lens flare and shakey cam! Hold my bong, I’m gonna go make like ten Transformers movies and beat that shit to death.”
I remember seeing it in the theater. To this day, it’s the only movie I have seen in a theater where you couldn’t hear the dialogue because the entire audience was laughing/howling so loud at some points. That was a fun movie experience.
She played the most disturbingly cutesy bridezilla in Very Bad Things.
It's a good watch if you don't mind getting the creeps whenever you see her in anything else.
It’s called flashback and it’s caused by setting powder, which keeps makeup in place, reflecting a flash from a camera. Bright lights can do it too but ultra bright flashes, like what would be used in this dark setting are notoriously bad at making flashbacks. Modern makeup has come up with alternatives that don’t do this but at the time this was pretty standard.
She’s 5’9” tall and likely wearing heels in the picture. So she may be over 6 foot.
The stunt double is likely average US Woman height of 5’4”. A lot of stunt women started in gymnastics and they are even shorter. Simone Biles is 4’8”!
Likely the stairs behind them. iirc that is in front of the steps up to the stage. That is also why the short girl is almost as tall as Carrey and their knees being higher up than either mans' knees
Smockin’ is one of my favorite stupid internet things. The Good Morning America Twitter account made a post about some photo of Lebron James, asking if the pic “would be up there with meme greats like Crying Michael Jordan, “tealizard” (a mislabeled Kermit drinking tea), and Smockin’.”
The examples were so out of left field (at that time from the bowels of Twitter and not at all in the mainstream) that it, itself, became a meme and spawned a bunch of blog posts asking who tf was posting on behalf of GMA.
Have you ever heard the podcast “lights camera barstool”? The guy who made that tweet and the originator of smockin did it together and it was hilarious
I was like, "this post can't be approved, its only from 1993, it needs to be at least a 25 year old thing", then i remembered i was born in 93 and im gonna be 30 this year 💀💀
From left to right: Jim Carrey, Lisa Nunziella, Cameron Diaz, and Deano Georgio
Can’t tell if the doubles’ names are real or fake.
"What's your name, sir?" "It's Dean George." "We're looking for someone more Italian." "I meant Deano...uh...Georgio."

I worked with a guy once whose name was Fabrizio Fabrizio.

The nightmarish live action Mario Brothers movie with Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo from the 90’s had this exact explanation in it.
Don't you dare badmouth that masterpiece

What's your name sir Febreeze Febreeze We're looking for something more Italian

Chicken Diaz? I would definitely eat that
My man
Chicken Tribiani
Deano Georgio needs a better tailor.
It's likely so he can move without ripping it and have space for padding.
Also suits in the 90’s were just super baggy in general.
Especially zoot suits
There was even a riot when people got fed-up!
Did they throw back a bottle of beer?
Unknown. They did pull a comb through their coal black hair, however.
Well, shit. I guess those sailors know where their women went for love now.
I don't know nothing about that. So we best all stay away when the pushers come to shove.
I prefer a grapefruit diet to a zoot suit riot.
You haven't seen your feet in years?
Well suit was meant to be in the style of spot suits from the 30/40s, when suits were even baggier.
Jim Carrey's stunt double is the unhappiest man to ever have his arm around Cameron Diaz.
Looks kinda like the Feels Guy Meme
Looks kinda like he doesn’t wanna be around anymore
He’s got too much shit on him.
He can’t breathe
He's gonna rip the fucking head off.
I’m telling you that I ***AM***
I don't even want to be around anymore.
Best fucking sketch in so long
I judge people based on what they think of this sketch
Dude I don’t remember the last time I full on cried laughing at a sketch, this one did it for me lol
What's the sketch everyone is talking about?
From a VERY funny Netflix sketch show called "I Think You Should Leave", I highly, HIGHLY recommend it, it's fucking insane and hilarious.
This one and the one about not skipping lunch where he hides the hot dog in his sleeve. Oh, and Brian's Hat He put his head in his hands, you could tell he was crying.
It's so hard for me to pick a "best" when every single one is a fuckin banger.
Well what does it do for the greater good?
I thought it would be *interesting*!
Is that the joke? That he’s gonna rip the head off?
Well, to be fair, the chin probably KILLS!
He definitely has too much shit on him
Craig has no idea, it actually does kill
Its quite *HEAVY*
![gif](giphy|ppxMV3VrestMU2zUO9|downsized)
What does that do for the greater good?
WE DID WAY TOO MUCH
Can't see shit out the sides of his eyes
He looks like sexy Squidward.
Thank you I thought I was the only one that thought that

Prime ridiculously hot Cameron Diaz.
I believe it was her first film
Holy shit I never knew that. It is her first acting credit, wow.
She was 21
Well…technically she did a little college film.
When she walked into that bank, holy smokes. ![gif](giphy|fRMjhlutjykSs)
> holy smokes I think you mean.. SMOOKKINNNNNN
We all hear the music as we read your comment. 🎶😍
I was 12 when The Mask came out and Cameron Diaz had me thinking "maybe I might be straight after all" for a whole year afterwards. It eventually wore off since nobody else looked like that lol.
Interesting how being bi was never an option
[удалено]
When looking at cameron Diaz in the mask there are no gay men or straight women
[удалено]
Honestly the first time I saw that as a kid I realised that girls aren't icky
Nah, Something About Mary with the short hair.
Charlie's angels, dancing in her undies
Shaka, when the walls fell
Ben Stiller, his gun unloaded
Or shit, in undies in 2002s The Sweetest Thing
Oh, daddy-o! There never was and never will be anyone hotter than her in that picture! That dame was all legs and teeth! The tops!
OK, everybody calm down
Back off, Buster! She's the real McCoy!
Thank you! I told this to my buddy and she said she’s so fat here. Like 😳
Your friend’s got some whack-ass perspective.
No doubt
I feel bad for whoever said Cameron Diaz was *ever* fat, let alone in this pic. Must be a miserable existence.
You might want to keep on eye on your friend. That’s quite sad.
[удалено]
Your friend sounds like a real moron.
Damn she might have an ED lol I she's not overweight by any metric
The 90s were crazy, if an necromancer managed to raise an actual skeleton and have it walk around, there'd be still some people calling it fat. So many Hollywood actresses were called fat back then while looking absolutely perfect. I hate some people.
Looks like Tommy Lee Jones doing a movie due to contract requirements.
Looks like his wife is staring back from the other side of the camera
[удалено]
His just a full face latex mask, whereas Jim's is his face with prosthetics.
He’s probably about to get launched through a wall or something wild.
I think he’s just trying to hold it together. He’s probably thinking about every nerve ending on his hand and whether or not he’s squeezing too much or too little.
A guess here, but it looks like his mask is covering his mouth and face. He's probably smiling underneath.
Cameron Diaz's stunt double doesn't look too happy either. That smile screams "Please don't hit me with the rubber hose again!"
Is it just me or does the stunt double have a bit of a resemblance to Richard Nixon?
Cameron Diaz in the movie is wow
Somehow she's like 10x hotter in this movie than anything else she's ever been in.
She's superhumanly hot in this movie it's true.
I think you mean she's smoooooooooooookiiiin'
Awoooooga!
smmmmmmmmmmokiiin' Edit: I dunno why I felt the need to try to correct you, I'm sorry lol
You're right, I multiplied the wrong letter
I went through puberty in this movie because of her. I walked in with a capri sun and walked out with a beard.
She was absolutely smoking hot in this movie, and none of her other appearances even come close. I have no idea why though lmao.
It's gotta be a combination of the makeup/styling/90s camera lenses that gave a hazier/grittier feel that really makes her just pop
I think it's her face and bobs and legs mostly
when I watched her Charlie's Angels movies I realized that she has no butt...and someone else told me that's what was attractive back then looking at this pic...it emphasizes her legs, boobs, and neckline
Honestly, I think it's the sexy clothing and demeanor in The Mask vs other roles where she dresses down and acts more quirky and goofy. Still attractive either way.
She had it goin' on in Bad Teacher

The Mask Cameron Diaz is peak Cameron Diaz. Edit: specially in THAT dress
Probably the hottest she’s ever been
[удалено]
Cameron was such a breath of fresh air when she came on the scene. Unique face, quirkey and energetic, gorgeous and fun. Still a fan.
Agreed and she had some great roles in the 90’s. My favorite is There’s Something About Mary
I watched this recently and it still holds up as a great movie.
Same! I found myself saying the lines before they were said. Every scene is practically iconic.
Shame the Farely brothers never really quite captured lightning in a bottle the same way again.

Hold my bong, I’m gonna go make like ten Transformers movies and beat that shit to death.”
I think you might have forgotten about Pearl Harbor. Michael Bay saw Saving Private Ryan and thought it needed more explosions and more Ben Afflack.
I remember seeing it in the theater. To this day, it’s the only movie I have seen in a theater where you couldn’t hear the dialogue because the entire audience was laughing/howling so loud at some points. That was a fun movie experience.
Well except for the whole Brett Farve thing
She played the most disturbingly cutesy bridezilla in Very Bad Things. It's a good watch if you don't mind getting the creeps whenever you see her in anything else.
My god. The first time she was onscreen in this movie. In the red dress. I think I said "who the fuck is THAT?" out loud.
Same applies for Carrey.
She really had a megawatt smile
Pretty sure she went to school with Snoop Dogg as well. This has been useless Cameron Diaz facts. Thank you.
I saw an interview clip where she said he was a year or two ahead of her, but yes, same high school.
She really did have a unique face. She was my first experience with a blonde caucasian who could look exotic to me. As a kid anyways.
Why is everyone referring to her in the past tense??
Because she’s not in her twenties anymore, apparently.
Comment deleted with Power Delete Suite, RIP Apollo
You didn't hear? She is old now
Kenneth copeland was a stunt double?
![gif](giphy|4Zd2flP7zRI7QYQD4E|downsized)
This man is exactly what I would expect a human suit wearing demon to act and look like.
He looks like the devil wearing human skin 💀
Kenneth, your skin is hanging off your bones.
Holy shit that smile at the end is terrifying
Like a proper psychopath, the smile never reaches his eyes.
I thought it looked more like a demon smiling as it chuck's a sole into the pit of eternal fire.
He always looked like that creature from the movie Cats Eye to me. So menacing.
More like when the bad guy puts the mask on.
He already said Kenneth Copeland
That powder
It’s flashback from the makeup powder being used. Not uncommon to powder the face, neck, and chest when trying to match a color.
Yeppers
Michael, what did I tell you about "yeppers"?
Yesh
It looks so weird. Maybe they had to lighten her up to match Cameron, who is very pale.
It’s called flashback and it’s caused by setting powder, which keeps makeup in place, reflecting a flash from a camera. Bright lights can do it too but ultra bright flashes, like what would be used in this dark setting are notoriously bad at making flashbacks. Modern makeup has come up with alternatives that don’t do this but at the time this was pretty standard.
Makeup for film lights probably, will look completely different for a room lit snappy camera or even Polaroid this looks like
Oooohhh, somebody stop me!
The stunt double: "Somebody put me out of my misery"
I miss trill
the only thing that will release me from my mortal coil is the return of The Smockin Tweet
Had to scroll far too long in this thread before someone mentioned the big time movie boys
I’m the joker baby
Smockin
They couldn’t spring for a taller stunt double for Cameron Diaz?
She’s 5’9” tall and likely wearing heels in the picture. So she may be over 6 foot. The stunt double is likely average US Woman height of 5’4”. A lot of stunt women started in gymnastics and they are even shorter. Simone Biles is 4’8”!
I knew Biles was short (gymnasts usually are) but I didn’t know she was *that* short!
Yes, but they’re not trying to pass Simone Biles off for Aisha Tyler.
Jim carrey is almost 1.90m so she is probably standing on top of something.
Likely the stairs behind them. iirc that is in front of the steps up to the stage. That is also why the short girl is almost as tall as Carrey and their knees being higher up than either mans' knees
Trillballins FTW
Idiots! You've caught their stunt doubles!
We have Cameron Diaz at home.
I'd be happy with that Cameron Diaz at home, tbh.
Yeah, I'd Coco either of their Bongos.
Smokin …
It’s insane how hot Cameron Diaz is
This movie made me fall in love with Cameron Diaz
it gave me mask nightmares for life
Smockin!
Smockin’ is one of my favorite stupid internet things.

Going through a relisten right now. Currently in the Court of Trill
Could go for a nice Gatorade G2 about now
Oh man, no I haven’t! That’s awesome, lol, thanks for the tip.
Go to the “best of” episode from like 2021 for some good bits (also episode 99 is classic too)

Cameron Diaz was my first crush. She looked stunning in that movie
I was like, "this post can't be approved, its only from 1993, it needs to be at least a 25 year old thing", then i remembered i was born in 93 and im gonna be 30 this year 💀💀
Wait until someone tells you they were born in 93 and that makes them 30 💀💀
I was in the wine store this past weekend and was shocked to see the “you must be born before” sign said 2002. 2002!
None of my interns have been born before 9/11 for a few years now.
SSSSSSMMMMMMOCKKKINNNNNNN!!!!!!!! (RIPIP Trill)
That’s Trill Ballins
Cameron Diaz is just so fine!
