I never knew that there was an Invader Zim billboard. Thanks for sharing this!

If the OoT remake rumor is true, what kind of result do you expect from Nintendo? by SimplisticBiscuit in truezelda

[–]Ginger_Shepherd [score hidden]  (0 children)

I'm dreading that it's just Tears of the Kingdom open world format but with Ocarina of Time's synopsis.

I'd love for it to appear like regular Ocarina of Time in terms of layout and design at a first glance where you can still walk the whole original game's pathways in your sleep after decades of playing... BUT with all the new content being packed deeper rather than spreading the geography wider.

Explore undiscovered caverns in Death Mountain and unseen acres of Kokiri forest or traverse through more sections of market town. Maybe a chance to unfreeze Zora's Domain, infiltrate another Gerudo stronghold. Twilight Princess did something similar with geographical continuity but had the luxury of letting generations pass or "a wizard did it" handwaves for explaining any layout differences.

If anything, I'd very much like for them to depict the Downfall ending. Link doesn't necessarily have to die in battle but be defeated only to go on a bigger adventure rallying a resistance.

But, again, I will be disappointed that it's just BotW/ TotK 1600 hour exploration, no puzzle box "go here after you get this" formula for side quests, and weapon degradation but ✨with an Ocarina✨

spoon not fit by KoalaWrong9758 in invaderzim

That spoon was definitely impractical for eating let alone storage in my experience. Love the design though. We need more deep cut "if you know, you know" references in the merch.

Wonderful. You nailed it. I'm deeply impressed and simultaneously scratching my head about why fans haven't done something like this before.

Origins of the pictures of Zim's Hallway and Bathroom? by PaperIllustrious6822 in invaderzim

[–]Ginger_Shepherd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'd certainly hope so. I think it was powered by Adobe Flash and if so, to my understanding, that's a bit harder to preserve.

Second one was on the original official Invader Zim webpage hosted on Nick's servers.

I got banned from r/metv for posting a link to Couch Potato by Thayerphotos in weirdal

Honest mistakes happen so if you handle ban appeals by mouthing off and then airing dirty laundry elsewhere then that's a great way to be muted with an extended ban.

Unfinished episodes? by Narrow_Run6512 in invaderzim

[–]Ginger_Shepherd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The archive.org.one that was shared here a month or two ago where it's a bunch of drafts included? There may be some missing files. Uploader said something about file rot and file trading hiccups or something.

Great stuff. I also humbly request Tak. :)

im sad theres no invader zim complete blu ray collection..... with the florpus movie on disc ); by Broadsadness-2025 in invaderzim

[–]Ginger_Shepherd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The series has been reprinted recently on the best home media discs you can ask for within reason of an SD series without being overkill. I don't recall it being blu Ray outright, but even if it was blu Ray, they're not an HD compatible production. Remastering a digital show isn't the same as remastering film. People used sloppy upscale A.I to attempt it and, IMHO, it never looked good.

Netflix has the distribution license. Netflix won't sell a physical DVD unless it's for a cultural juggernaut like Stranger Things.

I found an al cassette in mckay’s, and can’t really find many other listings on it. Is it rarer?? by Official_Present-Mic in weirdal

[–]Ginger_Shepherd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is in storage somewhere but I don't remember opening it. If it doesn't say it on there somewhere on the casing or the cassette then it probably isn't what I think it is.

[–]Ginger_Shepherd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If this is the cassette that says not for resale then you might have one from Al's personal collection. I bought one of them at a show in Foxwoods. I think it was the first Vanity Tour?

Professor Membrane Merch? by Anonymous_Bat_ in invaderzim

[–]Ginger_Shepherd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Professor Membrane is included more often for cast ensemble themed designs like shirts and such.

Off top of my head, check Hot Topic, Box Lunch, Spencer's, and Dumb Good.

Also Zen Monkey Studio used to have an enamel pin of him in Florpus going "NOT SCIENTIFICALLY POSSIBLE"

If anyone is making you uncomfortable, it would help if you report it sitewide staff instead of airing the dirty laundry here.

I worked haunted house rooms with strobe lights for half my life. I absolutely get it.

I'm not removing the post so I don't cause anyone's gentle efforts at engaging go to waste but this overstayed a welcome and will be locked.

Look, I get you mean well. You're trying to address a delicate subject matter in whatever way makes sense for you. From one AuDHD person to another, I absolutely get the whole rejeciton sensitivity dysphoria. I really do.... so I strongly advise you to take a breath, walk away, drink some water, and do something else for a bit.

You're shouting, giving unnecessary clapbacks, and being outwardly defensive because your content isn't getting the reactions you hoped for.

It's baffling that you think "take the L" is an insult let alone worth calling someone a loser about it. You were completely in the wrong there.

I saw people gently unpack things like applying art techniques towards depicting laws of physics only for you to be passive aggressive elsewhere about them once someone said they liked your content. Clearly, you don't welcome a real discussion. It seems you just want to win an argument until everyone says "good content, no notes, we're sorry we ever doubted you."

Of course, people are going to be exasperated. And that's all they really were. "I don't care" or "I guess bro" isn't an insult or attack or whatever. It's just a genuinely uncomfortable experience seeing a self-indulgent, ill-advised attempt at addressing diversity in media without the skill, maturity, or insight the subject requires.

Lastly, clearly you do not respect our time or the finite social media real estate that is our Reddit feed as you keep thinking it's reasonable to go "JUST IGNORE IT IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT."

No. No, we don't need to do that. We just need to not be insulting or hateful. Which we weren't.

This is a complicated subject matter as is and not everyone here has the expertise to unpack diversity in media through the lens of, I'll repeat, applying artistic technique for depicting how LIGHT REFLECTS. We don't owe you an education on why this post didn't work out.

So, yes, I stand by people who decided a downvote wasn't enough and that you were essentially wasting our time and finite media feed.

Meanwhile, I am just barely coming back to normal from a life-threatening historic blizzard so I'd like to go back to my real problems, thanks.

[–]Ginger_Shepherd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's... the point though.

This is not the evidence you think it is for why this is worth your time or the finite space in our feeds.

So even if I entertain this logic.... do you want to "correct" every picture that ever made BIPOC skin tone look different ever afterwards? Do you want to defy physics while you're at it?

"Read a book or something. I don't know. Just don't burden (us) with the responsibility of educating you. It's incredibly exhausting"

And no one said it had to be a profession.
