A place for those who "Trust the Fungus"

Glad I could help! It takes a lot of courage to ask someone else to review your work-- I know this from hard experience-- and I'm deeply glad if I've been able to help at all. And sure I want to read it! It looks cool! Don't worry, I'm not easily put off by any content other than ultra-graphic viole...

Good point. I do try to make a distinction between actual conservatives and rabid-conservatives; it's hard for me, though, because almost every person I've ever known IRL who has identified as 'conservative' was the rabid-idiot-fundamentalist type. And almost every person I've ever known IRL, and wh...

I live in a highly conservative backwater corner of Texas, where everyone swallows this shit and then spews it out constantly. It was all I could do not to punch someone when people at my school were laughing and making jokes and kids were pretending to shoot each other, within literally hours of th...

For some reason my computer is going into conniptions every time I try to load one of the images, but from what I can see this looks really cool. I like the gritty artstyle, and the idea of some sort of corruption working its way through the Mushroom Kingdom is simultaneously intriguing and chilling...

Yo, stoppin' by to do some constructive crit! Looks pretty interesting so far; I'll start from the beginning and critique as I go. For the sake of space, I'll cut out any parts that I don't have anything to say about. First off, prologue time! Prologue: Escape. (Mostly a matter of taste, but it's a ...

Phew! It's been a while, but I'm back and ready to get cracking again. Unfortunately my copy of the movie is missing, so I'm going to have to get another one, but that shouldn't take too terribly long. In the meantime, I've come across some more questions that need answering before I can proceed any...

Sorry for the long disappearance, all; I got stuck on the first main chapter, and somewhere along the way I got distracted and now, sweet monkeys, it's been over six months. D: I'm pleased that you found my suggestion to be a good means through which to continue the story. I really feel that this is...

I think probably the best definition of Mary Sue/Gary Stu is: 'An audience reaction to a character around whom the internal logic of the world, characters, and story seem to bend unreasonably, particularly if said unreasonable distortion seems to be caused by wish-fulfillment on the part of the auth...

First off, I apologize for taking so long to get to this. Second, this is absolutely wonderful! I counted two, possibly three typos, and using 'cliché' twice to refer to the same situation poetically was slightly awkward, but other than that I really can't find fault at all; the grammar and syntax ...

I apologize deeply for having disappeared the last couple weeks; I've been more or less dogpiled with insomnia, four or five times my usual workload of schoolwork, a couple power outages, and general trying not to die. Hopefully things will slow down over the course of the next week, and I'll be a b...

Thank you guys a ton! I really appreciate the feedback, and I'm glad you like it! Except for you, Mushroom, you party pooper you. Kidding, kidding, s'all cool dude. XD Thanks! Figuring out where to start has been probably one of the hardest parts of the whole story construction so far; I've tried st...

Thanks! Those pieces of information in particular are pretty important to the plot, so it's good to know them before I go any further with world and plot construction. Another couple of questions: what was Koopa's position of power before the takeover? From his outfit in the beginning, he seems to h...

Thanks! I was worrying about how well my previous method of spoiler-tagging was going to work, considering that I couldn't find a good match for the board's background color. This'll come in mighty handy!

@ Redstar: Thanks a ton! That's really helped me a lot with getting the outline for the story done so far. Another couple questions: about how large is Dinohattan, in both dimensions and population, and are there any people trying to eke out a living in the desert? @ LyanRai: Thank you! :D I hope it...

Whooo! Now that I've finished the first chapter of First Year and quieted my Writer's Conscience for a little while, I can start reading First Rebel. TO THE THREADMOBILE!

(Oh yeah, First Year Chapter One is done. Enjoy!)

(A note: this thread is specifically set aside for the story. If you wish to discuss the plot, ask questions, make suggestions, give critique, or heap lavish praise upon me and my house, please go to the discussion thread . Thanks!) For an instant the world shone like a blue sun, and then he was gon...

Awesome! High five! I can't wait to read it; from what I've seen on its thread, it sounds pretty cool.

It probably won't be that great, and almost certainly not the final version, but if all goes well I should have at least the first chapter of my fic The First Year up by the end of the week.

Oh man, I'm sorry! I just looked through the threads in Fanstuff and realized it was your fic that your were talking about. I really wasn't trying to rip it off or anything, I promise. It does sound cool; I'll do my best to keep First Year developing in a different direction. I swear, it's a friggin...

Great advice! I can vouch for the stopping-mid-chapter thing in particular; I often have to completely start a chapter over if I leave it too long, and that's why I try to write chapters in as few sittings as close together as possible. I've even had to rewrite whole stories on occasion. THE HORROR ...

My apologies for taking so long to post; I've only just managed to pull myself, for the time being, out of the swirling vortex that is PSAT Study, Running Errands, and Generally Not Dying. Thank you guys so much! It means a lot to me to see that people are not only interested, but willing to help, a...

Gack, sorry it took me so long to reply! Life has required me to run around like a chicken missing its head the last few days, and I've only gotten to use the chompie for a couple minutes here and there. I'm glad you guys like the project! I'm glad to see it might be inspiring you to write again, Re...

Thank you both for the welcome! Sorry it took me a little while, my posting/updating schedule isn't terribly solid. ^^' It's really awesome that way, isn't it? I love movies like that, when you get to see and understand all of the other angles and characters as well as the ones that stood out to you...

Awesome! Congratulations, yours is the first one on the list! That's a really good one, too; I think I might try my hand at it. -steeples fingers and begins concocting le storeh-

I think I'll sign up long-term, at least one one-shot/chapter a week.

Ahhh, okay. I'll definitely give it a look, then; maybe I'll catch some more stuff that way. oh god now it's in my head. DAAAMN YOOOOOOUUUUUU (just kidding, it's all chill brah) D'oh, just realized somebody already posted about Koopa's T-Rex arms. (Now there's a phrase you don't hear every day...)

Attention, Archivers! It has come to my attention that there isn't anything like enough fanfiction for the Super Mario Bros. Movie. Therefore, I propose a challenge to kickstart the writing section of this already-awesome fandom! Basically, each writer signs up for either a one-shot or long-term ch...

Hmmm, I seem to remember the part where he has his shoulders hunched a little, although I haven't really examined it with enough detail to say definitively. Does the Swedish version have any extra scenes, or just little extra easter eggs photoshopped in, or what? I might check it out; I really like ...

I'm so excited for this movie that words can't even describe it. Therefore, I won't try to make them. Instead I'll just settle for barfing rainbows all over my keyboard. 8D I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY ACTUALLY PUT FREAKING ROBOTNIK AND BOWSER IN A MOVIE ASDFGHJKL (I agree, they really do need to stick thei...

Hah, this thread is so awesome! I lol'd so hard at the pig lady. HOW ON EARTH DID I NEVER EVEN NOTICE THAT, I'VE WATCHED THAT SCENE LIKE A MILLION TIMES I don't have as good an eye for detail as you guys, but there were one or two things that I noticed. The first one is that, just on occasion, Koopa...

All right, so I have a question and a request for you guys. Recently, I re-watched the movie, and I started to notice and wonder about various little things; from how the characters came to be the way they are, to the history of the alternate world, to why some of the reptile-people are much more......

((ASDFGHJKL SMBM RP YAY

Is this still going? Can I join in? Mind if I play Iggy and/or Spike? They'd be so much fun to write! If it's not still going, can I start a new one?

-squees inwardly-))

Hi there, folks! I'm Carnivorous M., but you can call me Carnie, Carn, Carnivore, Meat-Eater, or the Moogle of Your Nightmares! I'm what they call a bit of an odd one, and I love writing, drawing, roleplaying, and discussing movies. My activity tends to be a bit sporadic, so don't be too alarmed if ...
