Here it is, well into December! We have had lots of wonderful movie nights, added tons of new films to the library, bought some more anime, and had a great time with you. Enjoy your holidays, and keep warm!

Oops

Um, yeah, forgot about posting the new movies as they come in, already. XD Well, we've added Cars 3, Blade Runner 2049, and A Bad Moms Christmas in February! Not sure what I've missed in between.

We also now have the popular new anime release, Yuri On Ice, and will be previewing it on Feb 16, at the Fruits Basket/Chinese New Year night, so if you love pretty boys and/or figure skating,don't miss it! (We are waiting on cataloging to add it to the shelf.)
