Two Weeks Notice

No, we're not quitting, but here's two weeks notice - our next showing is on February 1st. Once again we're in A-1046, and our rating is 16+.

There will be a meeting at 7:00 - this is important, as we will be selecting a new logo for the society, or deciding to keep the old one. Please come and have your say, it's your club too! (Note, Feb. 1st is also Mixer Crawl night, please try to be at least a little sober. Overly drunk people will be a) ignored and b) thrown out if rowdy.)

Hopefully we'll be able to keep this meeting short, and start the anime 7:30, "as usual." We're showing...

Trigun

Vash the Stampede is a gunman on the run with a 60 billion double dollar bounty on his head which has made it difficult for him to go anywhere without being chased and shot at. Every town he ever visits ends up being destroyed because of his pursuers, but miraculously no one ever gets killed. Meryl and Milly are two insurance agents that have been sent to find Vash the Stampede and keep him under surveillance so no more damage is caused. Meryl, who leads the pair, refuses to believe that the man they have met can possibly be the legendary gunman. This spikey haired, gangly, young man is extremely friendly, a pacifist, hates blood and suicide, absolutely loves donuts, and is a dork and a crybaby (far from a notorious outlaw). But there is more to Vash and his past than meets the eye.

.hack//Roots

In 2015, CC Corporation`s datacenter caught on fire destroying "The World". By splicing in data from what would have been another project, CC Corp. was able to rebuild the game. In 2016, "The World R:2" was released. .hack//Roots covers the time Haseo spent with Shino and Ovan in the guild known as the Twilight Brigade, before the .hack//G.U. PS2 games.

We hope to see you there!

Showing!

Hey everyone. This Friday we're having our first full showing, A-1046, 7:30. Rating is 16+. As usual, we'll be avaliable beforehand from 7 for the purchase of memberships, for $5. Please try to have exact change, it's hard for us to deal with getting five twenties in one go.

This week is the final cut-off for logo submissions. On Feb. 1st at 7:00 we will be holding an open meeting to discuss the submissions and select a logo. T-shirts will then be priced, and hopefully the order will be placed soon thereafter.

The Showing:


Gundam 00

It is the year 2307 A.D
. Fossil fuels on Earth have been depleted entirely, with mankind turning to the next available power source: solar energy. During this time, 3 orbital elevators with solar power generation systems are built, each under control by the Union of Solar Energy and Free Nations (formerly United States of America), the Human Reform League (Russia, China and India) and the Advanced European Union. However, not all countries are able to enjoy the benefits of this system, leading to widespread resentment and war. Arising out of the conflict, a mysterious military organization known as Celestial Being appears, dedicated to end all warfare using Mobile Suits called Gundam. This begins the stories of Gundam Meisters (pilots) Setsuna F. Seiei, Lockon Stratos, Allelujah Haptism and Tiera Erde as they are thrown into conflict between the 3 superpowers and the various other factions.

Murder Princess


Times are dangerous in the kingdom of Forland. Rebels are trying for the throne, and a mysterious woman with great powers is involved. The crown prince has left on a military campaign, leaving only the princess Alita to retake the throne, should it be lost. In Ereru Forest, the bounty hunter Faris and her two companions are killing monsters, seeking the prices they will pay. Alita and Faris cross paths, with unusual results - they switch bodies. Faris takes on Alita's name and identity, and earns her the title "Murder Princess," while Alita takes on the name of Milano and steps in as Alita's personal maid. The two must work together, protecting Forland.


Also, if you missed last Friday, I've promised to appear in costume this week, as Faris. We hope to see you there!

Meeting Adjourned.

Hello Everyone!! We've met, and talked, and come up with a plan!

We're starting up the semester this Friday with a "Meet 'n' Greet Movie Night" like last semester. This means that we're *gasp* watching a movie, and then we'll have a meeting and let you know what's up this semester. As usual, we're in A-1046 and starting at 7:30.

Before I tell you what we're showing, a couple of things from our last meeting in November. 1) Congratulations and welcome to our replacement on the Executive for Erin, Chris Whalen. 2) Welcome on-board to our trainee Executive, Elizabeth-Ann Critchley (if I misspelled that, I'm sorry).

And now, the showing!

With Parody Subtitles, Advent Children (Rated 15+ for mature humor and violence)

The Advent Children you all know and love, but with text created by fans, for fans...and our amusement. So, to anyone who doesn't want to see the horribly awesome things that these subtitles are implying, we suggest you absent yourselves.

Following the showing will be a meeting, details of which will be posted with next week's showing blurb, when we return to our normal showing schedule. (Yes, this does mean two showings in a row, both the 11th and 18th of January.)

We hope to see you there!
