Hello Oracle​,
It’s been a while since I last share my Minecraft art.
Here’s my two newest art…

First I made Minecraft of Selena, when she sang at the Houston Asterdome.

And Hawkman, he was really tough to make, it took me a while, hope @Shayera.Hol will like this. Haven’t made Hawkgirl yet.
Hope you like it.

[Vroom]

I do indeed, while The Next Chapter is derived from the latter portion of the book.

My ideal TNS update would be a three hour epic that fully encapsulates as much of the book as is sensibly possible in one movie.

Or…it could be split into a trilogy, Hobbit-style. Then, each part would run about…two hours or so, give or take.

Regardless of how a new movie iteration would crystallize , there’d be some groovy cameos from actors that were in the first two movies, including, of course, John Wesley Shipp, aka Bastian’s best dad.

ponders what Clarissa Burt, who played Xayide in part II, could do in a new movie

While I do that, I’ll drop off this groovy tune by Graphixx:

Never Ending Story

plans on attending a rave at the Ivory Tower, should one materialize

@AlexanderKnox

When I was just a Bat-Boy, my Martha told me, "Son,
Always be a good boy. Don’t ever play with guns."
But I shot Ant-Man in Reno just to watch him die.
When I see that signal glowing, I hang my cowl and cry.

What?

@Vroom, you mentioned a 3rd movie; I don’t think I’ve seen that anywhere

[Razzzcat]

Its a play on Folsom Prison Blues by Johnny Cash.

Points for @AlexanderKnox. Excellent work!

[edit] Now I have to add this—another personal fave (Thank me later lol) Plz enjoy, everyone. Applejack, obviously, as the benevolent ruler of this fair land. Unless it’s time for another OH game?? Been a min.

Johnny Cash feat. U2- The Wanderer (Official-Unofficial) Music Video

Pps. (whispers) Don’t tell anyone, @ajm08g, but I haven’t actually read the entire Applewiki series (you’re welcome, Cap! #privacy), so I don’t remember. …I know—I KNOW!

[Sean-Malloy]

Thank you

Oh, you’re missing out. It’s definitely the best one:

The Stoneman - Born To Be Wild (Neverending Story III)

Definitely, definitely the best one. Yep.

[AlexanderKnox]

@Razzzcat

Its a play on Folsom Prison Blues by Johnny Cash.

Arkham Asylum Blues, perhaps?

@Vroom

Does the original first season of Dr. Who exist in full?

I remember reading that in the '60s, shortsighted BBC execs destroyed the film of the first season, thinking nobody would want to re-watch the episodes after they aired.

Bad form, BBC. Quite bad.

The original first season (whatever is left.) is available through BritBox. They have so much classic BBC & ITV stuff, it’s amazing.

If the BBC did overwrite the tape it’s because (a) Dr Who was an edutainment show that r at n in the afternoons and (b) back then, video tape was very expensive and they were on a very small budget.

The NeverEnding Story

I would love a big-budget HBO Max series, faithfully adapting the book. I have the edition that’s color-coded. It’s very cool!

[DeSade-acolyte]

Hiya @Applejack
With Madhouse now finished.
(Zatanna pulls out the win!!!)

So just gut reactions.
How do you feel it all went down?
Did you think we’d break into triple digits on the Mega Madhouse vote?
Do you have enough good, quality data?
Any word/acknowledgement from the higher ups about this year’s tournaments?

Thanks

[Mae]

Speaking of The Neverending Story, the original and Part II are on HBO Max, but looks like III (apparently the best one ) is not streaming anywhere. There was also an animated series, but that’s only available to buy on Amazon, not stream.

Ooh and apparently there was also a live action show?

Tales from the Neverending Story

@Razzzcat

Pps. (whispers) Don’t tell anyone, @ajm08g, but I haven’t actually read the entire Applewiki series (you’re welcome, Cap! #privacy), so I don’t remember. …I know—I KNOW!

Makes note to include you along with @THE_OneAndOnly_Official_Batman with a spoiler warning for O.H. Fun Facts.

What you could say to Applejack is congratulations on her cosplay from years ago being pictured with the winner of the Mega Madhouse tournament.

x52!

You truly are an everlasting wellspring of musical joy.

I could go for an HBO Max mini that spins off of a new movie (or new movies). Would DC publish a tie-in comic? Would someone make toys?

says “And where the hell was I?” in his best Frank Drebin voice

Believe it or not, nobody has ever made toys and collectibles for The Neverending Story. There are some Mexican items, but I don’t believe they were officially licensed, plus they’re reportedly very hard to find.

I tell you, the day I can go into a Target and find a Spin Master-made Falkor with pack-in Bastian figure is the day I’ll hop on a purple buffalo and hightail it over to McDonald’s for a Rock Biter shake (which is an Oreo Shake with extra Oreo bits, simulating rocks).

[Vroom]

Not to go against your instructions or anything, but I’m going to thank you for that now (so…thanks ), as I dig that tune quite heartily. When it comes on the Sirius U2 channel, I turn the volume up a smidge of a smidge.

Same goes for when Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me (best Batman movie soundtrack song EVER; deal with it, Seal) comes on. Then the volume goes up just a bit over a smidge o’ a smidge.

It starred the kid from the Free Willy Trilogy, and a pre-Waterworld Jack Black (yes, that Jack Black).

[Razzzcat]

@ajm08g lol I do remember plenty, but overall, yeah, I tend to gravitate to the business end of things in terms of memory storage MORE importantly, I now know you can’t keep a secret!!! I said not to tell!! I’m just teasing.

(Now wonders what this Zee cosplay looks like) …(also wonders just how often and/or elaborate these costumes have been)
If this has been a frequent hobby: Please tell me you have all this collected for yourself somewhere @Applejack? I take progress shots and have a full photo session for documentation before I hit the streets/party. There may or may not even be a few short films of me in character, or playing a Halloween show too. Whoo’s to say?

(Now heres your weekly fuzz muffin)

@Vroom

Just think of all of the schway swag you can get from the Cool Points catalog with a Googleplex of Cool Points!

@Vroom has this year’s catalog come in? I’ve got some shoppin’ ta DO. It might be fun to shop out of a super old catalog tho—from like, 1947. Got one of those?

Also: There’s a Neverending Story TV show?! That movie made me cry serious tears as child. I don’t want to revisit it. It was worse than my reaction to the Headless Horseman. Absolutely nothing has scared me like that since, of course, so I guess it was a good thing?? lol taught me young not to be afraid!
