We've got two new releases from the Adult Swim network to give away - Robot Chicken season 4 and the all new Titan Maximum season 1. Both are released on DVD August 30th.

Here's the blurb:

Titan Maximum season 1 - It's robo-bashing, laser-blasting, monkey-flying, sometimes naked spacefaring action and adventure as only the creators of Emmy award winning ROBOT CHICKEN can deliver!

Robot Chicken Season 4 is the stuff that heartfelt, uplifting, high-priced musical theatre is made of. Except maybe for the action-figure dismemberment, evil santa-snowmen and constant slut kicks in the plastic nutsacks.

To be in with a chance of winning just comment on this post and we'll pick two commenters at random at the end of August.

Those wacky Taiwanese have been busy knocking up fake and defamatory news pieces again.

It seems super talented, avant-gard animator BLU has finally finished his long awaited short film. Check it out.

BIG BANG BIG BOOM - the new wall-painted animation by BLU from blu on Vimeo.

We were not at the Anime Expo in LA's downtown convention center. Not because we didn't fancy it mind: with the gothic lolitas and space ninjas and esoteric animation, we were keen. It's just that we were busy. Highlights included the Anime and Manga Research Circle and, "The Laser Light Spectacular, in which attendees will witness a show of unparalleled excitement featuring traditional laser sequences and anime-style laser graphics!"

What's the forth dimension then? I bet it's smell, it's always smell. " Breathe deep of Peter Parker's zesty pheromones. Enjoy the manly musk of Captain America, Taste the rage of The Incredible Hulk, by Calvin Klein, etc."

At the Fab 4D, still showing in Liverpool and looking very fine, the forth dimension included being lightly sprayed with water, next level stuff for real.

This is a video explaining the competition and showing what makes the sounds special.

This is a first look at The Illusionist by Sylvain 'Triplets of Belleville' Chomet. It's all about a dying breed of stage magician and we'll be looking at the film in detail next issue of Imagine.
