Captain, we are fully functional! And, Summer Wars

Well, almost. We are awaiting the delivery of one short cable from Amazon, but by this Friday's movie, the new projection system will be completely ready, with overhead projection, stereo sound, hi-def, and across-the-front seating! No more "Get your shadow out of the picture, kid" unless the kids are really tall!

Many thanks to Dan for stringing the wires, and to Ashley Davis for help with set-up!

Our movie screening contract prohibits us from advertising the titles of movies we are showing, but anime is not covered by our contract and screening permission must be requested directly from the anime companies (who almost always agree.)

Therefore, if Funimation approves our request to show Summer Wars, last year's big hit movie, we can advertise the title all we like! It's an action comedy about a boy who is dragged along to a family reunion, only to get involved in battling a computer virus that is about to take over the virtual world of Oz. It's a great, very fun movie. Parents might want to be warned, though, that there is a fair amount of swearing and a few other questionable scenes. (It is rated PG.)
