Summaries for Halloween Showing

Sorry about being tardy with everything (my computer died late last week and had to be ressurected). Regardless, I have plot summaries on tonight's showings:

Cossette no Shozou [Le Portrait de Petit Cossette]
Eiri works at his uncle's antique shop, and one day stumbles across a glass. Upon touching the glass, he receives visions from what he finds out to be a girl, Cossette, haunting the glass. She's been searching for over 250 years for someone who could see her, and now she needs his help.

Jigoku Shoujo [Hell Girl]
Somewhere in the vast sea of the Internet, there's a website that can only be accessed at the stroke of midnight. Known as the Jigoku Tsushin, rumor has it that if you post a grudge there, the Jigoku Shoujo will appear and drag whoever torments you into the inferno. Very little is known about the girl - all we know for sure is that she lives with her equally enigmatic grandmother, that three magical straw dolls accompany and serve her, and that whenever a posting on the Jigoku Tsushin moves her, she becomes the Jigoku Shoujo.

Remember guys, cosplay! And remember that we're in IIC-2001!

Halloween Showing!

This week on Monday, Oct 31st will be our annual Halloween Showing! We encourage everyone to come in costume and we will be showing La Portrait de Petite Cossette and Hell Girl. (Subject to change due to availability!) Please come by and take part in the Halloween festivities in IC-2001 (the Inco Innovation Building).

Website err0r

Some of you might have noticed that the webpage was down today and the later of last night. And, as you can see, the site looks quite a bit different. Were we working on the site and giving it a new look? No.
As I was publishing a post, the template for the website somehow became corrupted and was completely lost. So, while the site *is* back up, I have quite a bit of work for me tonight. @_@
In the meantime, check your spam box in your e-mails if you didn't recieve our e-newsletter the other day; it showed up in mine.

EDIT @ 2:50pm - Wow, that didn't take long. I managed to find a single page containing the majority of the template on my harddrive. Good as new :D

This Friday's showing

Hi all! This weekend we plan to show the Utena movie as well as the first four episodes of Outlaw Star.

Info on Utena from ANN:
In a loose retelling of the Revolutionary Girl Utena TV series, Utena Tenjou arrives at Ohtori Academy, only to be immediately swept up in a series of duels for the hand of her classmate Anthy Himemiya and the power she supposedly holds. At the same time, Utena reunites with Touga Kiryuu, a friend from her childhood who seems to know the secrets behind the duels. Utena must discover those secrets for herself, before the power that rules Ohtori claims her and her friends, new and old.

Info on Outlaw Star from ANN:
Gene Starwind and his partner Jim Hawking run a small business on the backwater planet of Centinel 3. But all that changes the day that Hilda hires them for a bodyguard job. Now, thrust into a mystery they don't fully understand, they're on the run from the cops, the pirates, an angry alien, and a mysterious assassin. But they've got one thing going in their favor - they have the galaxy's most advanced ship, the Outlaw Star.

Tape list update

Just a quick little update. The tape list will, from here on, be available in PDF format because the HTML format was just way too big (1.05MiB as opposed to 62.5KiB). If you don't have a PDF reader, just click here and download Adobe Reader, which is free.

Also, if you're wondering why certain names/dates are highlighted in different colours, the colour scheme I'm using is as follows:
GREEN - Was requested by member to be rented.
YELLOW - Is currently in the possession of a member is due back at the next showing.
RED - Overdue. Please return it
GREY - Stolen or Missing.

The tape list was updated just moments ago. Feel free to e-mail us and request a tape; that way I can get you the tape this Friday and you won't have to wait till next time.

ONEGAI✫FEST! (update)

Alright, guys, since we've met no arguments for a four-day fest, the upcoming mid-term fest will be three days long; the 7th, 8th, and 9th of October (this Friday, Saturday, and Sunday). This will probably work out for the better, because we know you guys don't want to miss turkey dinner on Monday ^_~

The three-day schedule will be as follows:
All days: EN-2006 @ 7:30pm
Friday, October 7th - Onegai Teacher 1-9
Saturday, October 8th - Onegai Teacher 10-13, Onegai Twins 1-5
Sunday, October 9th - Onegai Twins 6-13

I'm going to repeat the age ratings for both of these series. Generally, Onegai Teacher is suitable for teens and older. We're putting a 14+ restriction on this; luckily, very few patrons of the society are ever this young, so it shouldn't be an issue.
As for Onegai Twins, we're putting a Mature Audience Only (17+) rating on this. There isn't any sex or extreme violence, but due to the mature scenes that are found in this series, we will be asking younger patrons who can't prove their age to leave.

Also, I finished the poster last night (er, well, 2am this morning), and that's up for you to see. Click here.
