In Wynter Dark, New Yorkers Resort To Polar Bear Weaponry

Post-apocalyptic ice age flick Wynter Dark, about how a reversal of Earth's magnetic polarity destroys the climate, stole my heart when I discovered it would contain wars involving polar bears — and not the wussy Golden Compass kind. In newly-released concept art (above) you can see how the tech-challenged future world has had to resort to carrier pigeons for communication, which is fantastic. Wynter Dark Creative Director Pete Ford talked to io9 about the warring kingdoms of our future, and indulged my many bear-centric inquiries. More »

See The Dragonball Clearly At Last

A better quality, and slightly longer, version of the Dragonball trailer has turned up online. Now you can see the Hawaiian-shirted Roshi (Chow Yun-Fat) preparing to bring the smackdown, and the outrageous outfits of Bulma and Chi Chi. And most of all, you can see Justin Chatwin emoting his little heart out as Goku. And yes, James Marsters' Lord Piccolo does look very pallid. It's not too late to green him up! [dbthemovie]

Dragonball Teaser Trailer, Shaky-Cam Style

A bootleg of the live action Dragonball movie has been leaked and now you can see all the Tai Chi, make out sessions, Master Roshi Hawaiian shirts and a tiny Piccolo-in-action shot. Looks we're going to get a lot of wide sweeping action/epic views I'm fine with that as long as they green up Piccolo a little more, he looks pasty sick.

Tokyo Gore Police

A Mutant Roll Call For Tokyo Gore Police [NSFW]

Tokyo Gore Police is at it again, driving over piles of bodies and picking up violent mutants that just don't want to go quietly. In this second trailer, we get to meet a few more creepy characters from the wonderfully deranged mind of Yoshihiro Nishimura. In TGP, you follow a member of the Gore Police through one messed up futuristic Tokyo, bringing in mutants with chainsaw hands or a chest that squirts crazy acid. Click through for the second trailer and a gallery of some of TGP's problem cases, like the woman with the venus fly trap lady bits, who may be NSFW. More »
