Running with a full four man crew the OSMcast! is BACK and talking about SCOTT PILGRIM. Vs, uh, I dunno, a bunch of stuff! We talk about the graphic novels by Bryan Lee O’Malley, the movie adaption of said graphic novels directed by Edgar Wright, as well as the video game that adapts from both those things made by Ubisoft Montreal. That’s a lot of stuff!

GET YOUR LINKS ON: Anime3000! Empire Building Architect Sean Russell is the man with the plan, and that plan is to have all sorts of podcasts and other sorts of crazy stuff for your perusal. From his A3K Panel and Bonus Round, Reverse Thieves’ The Speakeasy, and Josh Dunham’s Animēshon Podcast, there is a TON of stuff to listen to. A TON. (Also, a ton of links.)

I GUESS you could go see the movies, but really the best thing you can do is get you some of those BOOKS. Most of the bi ol’ booksellers of the land should have them thanks to to movie, or you could just order then from Amazon.

And hell, the Scott Pilgrim website even has the first few pages up from each book to check out if you are so interested. Or you could not, I guess! THE CHOICE IS YOURS.

And THIS WEEK. AWA. Anime Weekend Atlanta. MAN OH MAN. They even have a PDF OF THE SCHEDULE. It is filled to the BRIM with bombastic anime con panel goodness. And this year we actually are getting to help add to that gumbo of greatness, goulash of grandiose, guacamole of gloriousness. That anime con schedule of anime conisity.

The OSMrenditions Panels of Power both happen on Friday. At 1 in the Special Events room in Kennesaw we’ll be having an Engrish Jamboree! Come celebrate politically incorrect racism as we laugh at Japanese people failing at the English language. Then at 4 in one of Panel Rooms (Galleria 104) we’ll be hosting the AWA Wild World of Sports (Anime).  I bet you’ll never be able to tell what we are talking about!

Of course, we could be making surprise appearances at other panels. Say for example at 3:30 on Saturday in Kennesaw there is a Podcaster roundtable, and we just happen to be a podcast! That podcasts a lot about anime! Hmmm! And also on Saturday earlier at 1:00 in Galleria 104 there is a Con DJing 101 panel, and we happen to have a DJ on deck, who tends to spin at anime cons… HMMMM.  And, as always, one can never tell when Basil is going to assault random con goers with microphones. Good times!

Deep within the underground (and also echo-y) OSMbunker, keeping the awesome alive, we decided to talk not about the movie adaption of  Watchmen, the amazing graphic novel by writer Alan Moore, artist Dave Gibbons, and colorist John Higgins, but the graphic novel itself.

Promo: Dead Workers Party Network! We are actually a part of this network, but we have never really talked about it. They are a collective of a bunch of awesome guys with a ton of various podcasts for your listening enjoyment. WoW, Warhammer, Team Fortress 2, other video games, and even more are topics these podcasts may cover. So check them out, or else.

The Watchmen graphic novel is incredibly easy to find. Just go walk into a book store or comic book store, they’ll have a copy.

Or you could just use Amazon… I guess.

Cave Story is also easy to find… On the Internet, anyway. Here’s a fansite that has links to download the game and the patch to make it readable via the English Language.  And here’s the official WiiWare version’s site, if you are like me and want to play it on a TV easily and give Pixel (the creator) money. You could also play Peggle, which is way too addictive, seriously. I’m now wondering if I shouldn’t have talked about it. Maybe you all should not download and play this game. This is the kind of game that ruins lives. Do you want your life ruined by happiness? I mean, really.

Have we mentioned MTAC? MTAC MTAC MTAC.

…

(MTAC.)

Nah, we probably haven’t.

Okay what we haven’t mentioned before is that the Dead Worker guys have set us up our own forum! There is actually a whole slew of forums covering all sorts of subjects as well. This is nothing really in our forum… yet. You could help change that!

But if super easy way of joining the totally awesome forum isn’t your speed, here are some other equally easy-peasy options!
