    Cult isn't Avatar...this is where we take a minute to showcase new filmmakers, foreign films and overlooked movies. Judging a crop of brand new filmmakers in a small film festival that is lovingly dedicated to science is really narrow minded. With out people trying new things and putting it all out there then we wouldn't have things like It's Always Sunny, Alive in Joburg and on. Sometimes it's just the idea that's brilliant. So please don't "meh" an entire round up dedicated to a film festival that's trying to get independent science film making off the ground. Because then you don't get to have the great stuff that is inspired by taking a risk.

    I'm not understanding the very blah reactions in the comments, but you can all suit yourselves. I went to the festival last year and it was incredibly awesome. There's a lot of material and it can be incredibly uneven, but the joy of discovering something super-cool makes it quite worth it.

    @SpammerOvTheGods: Agreed, although I always appreciate the diversity of the films selected to be shared; it's a big departure from other sites that maintain a status quo of what can and can't be shown, and usually it pays off for us as sci-fi consumers. Just not this time.

    'Growth' looks absolutely abysmal. 'Sizzle,' unfortunately, hooked me with the polar bear.

    @Lassus: this is the first io9 trailer roundup to have zero clips that made me want to see the movies they're previewing.

    yep, that's about it.

    I am going to have to see Sizzle just to find out what happens with the polar bear and the director. Amazing screen-grab there Meredith.

    "I'm not entirely sure Burning Man participants and evolution should be uttered in the same breath. What's next? Juggalos curing cancer?"

    Just in my camp of people (all five of us) we had a Neurobiologist, an honest to goodness rocket scientist (who just put a Falcon Rocket in to space), a Biochemist / Engineer, a special effects artist and a DJ. The crazy-smart people who go to that event are everywhere. Your preconceived notions regarding Black Rock City's participants show that you actually haven't been. It may not be for you, but don't choke on your sour grapes.

    @BadUncle:

    we were one electromechanical engineer, one software/hardware engineer, one landscaping/horticulturalist, a house builder and a jack-of-all-trades.

    so while not nearly as impressive as your guys creds, we ARE all 25 so...

    I can imagne 2 college students sat out there in the sunny desert enjoying the weed, beer and the tan. The suddenly a giant Mammoth skeleton comes wandering past and a woman on a trilobite. Methinks someone might be checking into rehab..haha!

    I watched Tokyo Gore Police last night. After the first 50 gallons of cranberry juice I figured, ah what the hell, it's already gone this far, I'll just stay with the awesome.


    Plus, rocket power blood streams are just... insanely cool.
