The Weekly DL returns! This week, we’d like to suggest a purchase of Com2us’ brilliant iPhone/iPod Touch RPG Chronicles of Inotia II: The Wanderer of Luone. The game’s an incredibly rich, old fashioned experience that should appeal to fans of Dragon Warrior, Diablo, or the recent Torchlight.

The story is fairly straight forward. You’re a hero in a land overtaken by the Evil Lord Gargon. The character you create (available classes: Knight, Templar, Magician, Priest, and Thief) traverses the land, fights monsters, and enlists the help of people he meets along the way. As with the previous Inotia, a touch control scheme is utilized that’s much more effective than giving you a virtual joystick. You simply touch where you wish to go and the enemies you wish to attack. If you cannot acclimate yourself to that, a virtual joystick is… … Weekly DL: Chronices of Inotia II: The Wanderer of Luone

We don’t know about you, but we’ve always wanted to see Danny Glover don a conductor’s hat on film. So, needless to say, we were elated to hear about Night Train. In it, Glover plays the conductor of the titular night train. He, along with passengers Steve Zahn and Leelee Sobieski, discover a dead body aboard the train and immediately begin rifling through the deceased’s possessions and find a “mysterious box containing treasure so valuable they conspire to keep it for themselves.”

The ‘Funk was sent a copy of Night Train on Blu-ray, but, unlike the characters in the film, we’re not conspiring to keep this treasure for ourselves. Be the fifth person to email us (wesleyATinsulinfunk.net) and the Blu-ray is yours!

So there’s this show on the Sundance Channel called Green Porno and you’re probably snickering because you’re 11. But if you’ve had the opportunity to see it, you would know how artistic and informative it is. If you haven’t, it’s a short film series about the reproductive habits of marine animals hosted by famed actress Isabella Rossellini. We’ll have a clip after the jump.

In affiliation with Green Porno, our friends at the Sundance Channel are giving us 2 Sundance Channel Green messenger bags to give away. To enter, send your name and address to contest@insulinfunk.net with “Green Porno” in the subject line.

But wait, there’s a catch. Sundance also has a Green Porno Name Generator. Visit the link, get your Green Porno name and put that, along with your real name and address, in the same email. You have until Wednesday, May 27th to enter…. … Win Sundance Channel Messenger Bags from Green Porno
