two things from when i was really young

1) a picture book about a little girl named ruby(?) who lived in a world where everyone turned into animals under the light of the (red?) moon, but she didn't have this power and she felt left out. her parents always told her, don't worry about it, you will get the power eventually, but she didn't want to wait and went on a journey to see if she could find out how to turn into an animal. various things happen and i don't really remember the details but at the end she can turn into a bird. book had to have come out no later than 1992.

2) some computer game that was basically a proto visual novel. it came on a two-sided 5 1⁄4" floppy and ran on some old apple][-type computers at my elementary school. maybe it was even 8" but it definitely wasn't the small ones. the game had to have come out some time before 1995, which is around when i played it. you went through the story like a cyoa and i honestly don't remember very much about it. but in the beginning, a seer tells you "you need <THIS RED STATUE> to defeat the evil overlord" and later in the game, you get to choose between three statues. i chose the blue one because i was a rebel, and when i got to the end of the game, i lost and died because i had the wrong statue, go back to the beginning. the only other things i could tell you about it was that the colors were very EGA and that i think there was some character named inkapilia.

i would love to be more specific about both of these things but i simply can't.

Back in the 90s in an issue of PC Gamer there was a full page ad for a Mafia themed game that looked like a combination of a RTS on the strategic level with tactical x-com like combat. It implied you could do stuff like have some of your gangsters firebomb a business as a distraction while another group attacked a rival gang. I have no idea what it was called.

A this point I think it's likely that either this game was never made, or I have played it and they cut out 90% of the features and I didn't recognize it.

no dude i know this is a real game, my bro had it in boarding school and played it on his lovely laptop

this is the one right here man https://www.gog.com/game/gangsters_organized_crime

I got another one for you goons:

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaars ago, when I was probably closer to 10,11,12 years old (so somewhere in '97, '98 or '99) and my mom and I had black box cable and on one of the big "this isnt tv its (huffs farts)" movie channels there was some cartoon on that was like some furry poo poo with anthro characters (not just talking animals) and I remember it was so loving weird because it was trying to be extremely serious and dramatic while using chip n dale looking goofy-rear end characters.

I remember some male character was dying in a female characters arms and it was supposed to be very sad but all it did was confuse the hell out of me and it was so loving weird that I remember only that scene and nothing else. Oh Extra detail, it was like set on a ship or something so think of Colonial american times or British times or whatever the gently caress.

This mightve been Stars or HBO or Cinemax even idk wtf but all those channels were clustered together, so who knows !

Snowglobe of Doom posted:

I just watched Titan A.E. for the first time and it had a scene like that, the weird kangaroo thing is Janeane Garofolo and the weird turtle thing is John Leguizamo. It was on a space ship though, not a colonial times sailing ship.



the suggestion and screenshot of titan ae just sparked this memory in the darkest recesses of my consciousness

die abenteur von pico & columbus is a movie set in the age of discovery, and takes place on the seafaring segment of columbus's expedition, with weirdly dark and serious drama about scurvy, mutiny, etc in spite of starring some cartoon termite straight out of fern gully

every few years i'll get it in my head that i can find this poo poo and it's just not gonna happen, so i gotta ask you guys to dust off your oldest HDs and burned discs for me

i'm looking for old fan-made beatmania/bms files. this is entirely legal and on the up-and-up, these were publicly released by enthusiasts and have nothing to do with the licensed songs in the arcade cabinets, but the problem is finding them. these are all fuckin ANCIENT by internet standards, 1998-2001. the original artists have long since disappeared, there were no real backups, and everything was uploaded to defunct japanese sites from the turn of the century.

specifically i'm looking for anything by Juno & Une, Shiro, Ken, ε&ο, and quite frankly anyone else you could find from that era. bmsworld.nz is really spotty, i've looked through all their uploads and it doesn't have a good collection from that timeframe. any help would be greatly appreciated

John Titor. Not all the forum posts or anything, the person. Did you make it back to your timeline, Mr. Titor?

he never made it back but that's fine, he prevented what he came to stop (because there was no american civil war in 2004). he lives in this timeline now and that's all there is to it

My white whale is a video game.

What I remember:

It's late 80s or early 90s I'd guess.
You move sideways on the screen like in a Mario game.
The game had a surreal touch to it.
There where flying, biting mouths out to get you.
The first level was some sort of garden level?
One of the levels had a chess patterned floor?

what like monster party

i wouldn't call it a white whale but lately i've been trying to find this creepypasta story about some hugely hungry lady who got stuck in an elevator with her daughter while going to see a doctor and then ate the daughter because she was hungry. it was told from the perspective of a paramedic or some guy who worked at the hospital or something? anyway it was an obvious bullshit story to anyone with a lick of logic but made your hair stand on end anyway

if we're asking for porn, there was this movie from probably around the late 90s to the early aughts, no later than 2003. it was some fantasy type setting, i can't remember if the guy wakes up in another world or if he's just a knight or whatever but he fucks a nymph and there are some lesbian fairies and poo poo. i don't think it was supposed to be a parody of anything specific, just using a high magic setting for fuckin. but that's really all i can tell you about it

it's out there, but while this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000XQQH6W was available some time ago, it doesn't seem to be so anymore.

I finally found it. Hallmark's 1969 The Littlest Angel which appears to be on youtube in full. Oddly enough the top comment is also someone searching for it based on remembering only the same part.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6KhABs6d7M

it's soooooo easy to remember the cliffhanger without remembering any of the other details. we watched about three quarters of a variety of rankin bass movies in preschool, and i remember nothing about them except for the part where the tape was stopped and strictly nothing else whatsoever. two penguins (seals?) stuck on a small iceberg about to get pecked apart by seagulls and that's it

alternatively, when i was older, i saw about half of that dexter's lab movie, and the last scene i saw--as well as the only detail i remember about the entire thing--was fully jacked 30 year old dexter tunnelling through the ground with his bare hands

ok guys i swear there was this thing like a kung fu film

i want to say there were two protagonists, like a boy and a girl? or it might have been just a boy idk. but the main thing was, the protagonist(s) have been training and are about to go on an adventure of some kind and i guess fight someone, and there's this old guy like an elder or martial arts master, and he says that that morning he woke up and for the first time in years had a huge erection, because this kid was about to go and have the adventure, and it was a miracle, and everyone is kind of embarrased but kind of joyful about it

this either sounds like it's some kind of french anime, or you're misremembering ninja bachelor party

okay here's probably a quite hard one:

i'm looking for a very certain gundam wall poster. my only details are that it's a gundam wall poster, probably produced in america, or at least produced for english-speaking countries, in the year 2000 or 2001 at the very latest. it has some quote in english from the anime about calmness, the surface of the water, or something like that. i don't need somewhere to buy it i just want to see it and i want to know what the quote actually says on it.

but good fuckin luck right? lol

I had some random poster of a very unpopular band back in 1997 and I just checked on ebay and it's available there.

I would say just check ebay. I guarantee it's on there. You can always ask the seller for a better pic if it's too small to read.

so i haven't found it yet, but i took a quick look and there's a LOT of poo poo! if i don't find it then that's just bad luck, i'll have to check again in a few months.

thanks, i never would've thought of searching on ebay in a million years.
