We got more coverage from the Polaris 23. Michelle Forbes was gracious enough to sit down and give some insight into some of the projects she’s worked on in the last couple of years. She provides some insight into working on Battlestar Galactica, In Treatment, Durham County and also hints at developments coming up in the second season of True Blood.

Last weekend, I had the pleasure to check out the 2009 Polaris conference. While there, I got a chance to sit in on a press conference with Michael Hogan, better known as Col Saul Tigh from Battlestar Galactica. And while Col Tigh is normally very intimidating and ferocious, Mr Hogan was very approachable and offered a lot of insight into his work on BSG as well as his work in the Canadian film and television industry. Here’s part one.

Dead Rising 2

Just a few weeks back on the podcast, we were discussing the rumors of Dead Rising 2. And now we have a new official trailer! This time we have a new lead character, Chuck Greene,  and a new location, Fortune City. And apparently some new and creative ways to use weapons too; IE: the 2 chainsaws attached to  a motorcycle -  looks definitely appealing. You can check out our thoughts on the first game for both the Xbox 360 and the Wii.

Marvel vs. Capcom 2

A few episodes ago, a couple of the guys had a chance to discuss Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe. Well now it looks like we’re getting a sequel this summer to the Marvel vs. Capcom franchise. I didn’t have a chance to check out the original Marvel vs. Capcom, and to be honest after Street Fighter IV I’m not sure how excited I am about this one, but I’ll certainly give this one a run up the flag poll.

Batman: Arkham Asylum – Harley Quinn Trailer

As the new Batman: Arkham Asylum game gets closer to launch, we’re seeing some new character videos coming out providing us some more insight into the game. I can’t wait to get my hands on this as it certainly has the potential to be great.

Disturbing Strokes

And finally, I leave you with a bit of a different take on a classic sitcom. It always fascinates me how much of an impact the musical score can have to a visual medium. It pretty much speaks for itself so take a peek…

Ok, in case you have an urge to hear the original, I give you Dave Chappelle, John Mayer and Questlove!
