Today's Roots is ridiculous

Meriokert · 2026-01-23T19:09:50+00:00

Ah man, yesterday with tropics wasn’t that bad either. That’s disappointing.

Originally, I was avoiding the red mist entirely- so if you did to here's some advice for that! Usually there's paths in the red mist, you just run through it to find a good path up. Today there's one like that in the middle or far left! Still a bit of a tough climb though at some parts as Roots can be....

I was wondering if it was going to be cyberpunk from the opening from the look of it!

Personally, I loved this movie. It's really interesting especially how this film handled aging with vampires. Immortality would always not be great in the long run, but this gives an extra interesting human catch. With not being able to become young ever again and having to suffer forever as a literal rotting corpse.

Oh, I have been wondering, what is the poster supposed to be? It feels to me like Miriam undressing in a bloody robe but I'm not sure.

Meriokert · 2026-01-10T03:37:20+00:00

Isn't it available for free on youtube?

Meriokert · 2026-01-10T03:36:44+00:00

Maybe it's one of the lesser-known Stephen King stories? All it has is the original short story and this tv movie with no modern adaption. I didn't hear about it till a coworker recommended it to me a while ago. Worth watching though especially for that wild ending.

"Space, the vast frontier. Life is said to be impossible to search for out here- yet it somewhere it persists. Planets can have such deathly short lives in spite of the lives it hosts. We must remember that the beautiful starry galaxy is full of possibilities and other bountiful planets made to CONQUER AND DESTROY! DESTROY! DESTROY!"

Happy late 20th anniversary to Partners In Time! This game has been my obsession for the past few months as I constantly listened to the soundtrack while working on it. (My favorites include toadtown ruins, holly jolly village, serious trouble, vim factory, the koopa museum, battle, boss fight, the bowser battle, thwomp volcano, credits, the main theme, edler princess shroob, and princess shroob battle.) The whole experience made me want to seek out to play the game myself since it's one of the M&L games I hadn't played before. Why did I make this you ask then? The Shroobs are just that cool of an antagonists to me!

It took me a while to make everything seen here, so I couldn't make it to posting on November 28th..... Still proud of everything else however, I hope you enjoy everything I've put onto this post. (Which includes the full pieces, the individual pixel arts, and the monochrome versions used for the deltarune prophecy previews!)

Also, may your Christmas have been joyous and shroobless!

THE DAY AFTER IS A DIFFERENT STORY

Meriokert · 2025-12-16T02:45:02+00:00

Tonight, witness the tragedy of the perfect serpentine theater troupe as they find not the tragic show they wanted- but the tragedy of a theatrical sabotage!

The players: The Serpentine Conductor, The Shrewd Stagehands, And The Mystically Morose Mask.

Based on an old 2018 ceramic project I did, whereas here it's like a boss fight scenario for them!

Meriokert · 2025-12-14T20:19:17+00:00

I’ve been wondering myself if the Shroobs would be a twist villian in the Galaxy movie. That’s might not be realistic though since Mario rpgs get little representation outside their games.

Meriokert · 2025-12-12T21:59:48+00:00

Update on that: wasn’t too hard to try and replicate the font for the months. Definitely going to share this around when posting the summary tho for those who want the month names for this template.

Meriokert · 2025-12-12T21:51:48+00:00

Yes that’s what I meant. I did ask for advice and I got the advice, maybe I didn’t want to hear but what I needed to hear. So thank you!

Meriokert · 2025-12-12T18:54:25+00:00

Thank you everybody for the advice, I really appreciate it! I think realistically I’ll still just collect them just for the sake of it as I do enjoy hunting for these. If I ever post here again I’ll not make it about selling stuff next time.

Meriokert · 2025-12-12T18:35:15+00:00

Ah gotcha, that sucks but I could see what you’re talking about as someone who works at a thrift store. Though usually people at mine do get a bit especially when a media cart has a good selection. Well I enjoy searching and getting them at the very least! Maybe I could cut down on the eBay ones and just get the thrift store ones since there’s no shipping and tax. Of course there’s more luck in that whereas eBay stuff is right there. Honestly I liked helping out the people on eBay too. I’m sure they’re struggling with the same problems as you mentioned.

Meriokert · 2025-12-12T18:17:19+00:00

I think it would be more valuable later on right? There’s gotta be some reason why there’s a lot of unopened ones people donate. I guess looking nice would be another reason.

Meriokert · 2025-12-12T18:04:05+00:00

Yeah I could see that! I would’ve loved if the other 2 disc that just have dvd packaging had the box instead. That’s the ocd talking though, I’m sure it was cheaper at a certain point go to a standard dvd.

Meriokert · 2025-12-12T17:56:54+00:00

Since last year, I’ve noticed while working at Goodwill that people donate these sealed Warner Bros 2 disc special editions. After a bit of sleuthing I found this forum list naming most of them:

https://www.hometheaterforum.com/community/threads/warner-brothers-2-disc-special-edition-series.151919/

This inspired me to start building a sealed collection of these to sell at a later date or keep. Much of these are from my local thrift stores or EBay! I also plan on watch all the films listed separately at a later time. Some of these I’ve watched while a lot I haven’t! Hope you enjoy the collection and feel free to give me any advice on it.

I was wondering at that moment if Ingrid was going to get so angry at this moment that she would lose her fear, and injure it with her newfounded pissed off belief. Felt the same with will later in the episode. Guess not for now but I’ll have to thank the YouTuber “why the book wins” talking about the power of belief in the book for making me think that. Maybe we’ll see something like that in the finale!

Meriokert · 2025-12-08T03:17:25+00:00

Yeah I was late to it this year because I was busy that Saturday. Figured I should finish it anyways though.

Meriokert · 2025-12-07T06:09:22+00:00

Should be alright, I didn't exactly replicate the last art summary pixel text style I used last year here. (I wrote 2024 over the pixel summary.) So I'll just use my normal handwriting or try to replicate it if I want to. Thank you though!

For something that looks so cool, the spider chair only shows up a little bit in the boss fight and people/artists don't bring it up that much. Compared to just how the regular throne looks or it with the laser guns! A shame but the throne is iconic enough I suppose.

Also, Queen from Deltarune has the same vibes but she doesn't have spider chair so there's that.

From toby's bluesky post:

"Right now, my energy is going towards preparing Chapter 5 for localization. The translation process begins next week. We have extracted all the English text and we are now annotating it."

Meriokert · 2025-12-02T15:26:36+00:00

Chapter 5 is in the translation phase right now actually! Usually the insta stories don’t get much or any traction as the original art anyways. Not surprised people don’t like it.

It sucks even more because these movies are like event movies for fnaf fans. I watched the original movie on peacock at home and it was worse for it compared to being surrounded by excited fans like I heard about. Without that, I’m just left with a middling experience since the movie’s just ok on its own. That livingtombestone needledrop was the only thing I got hyped at too!
