post 367 ~ the whitney library in vegas… so yesterday/saturday, july 15th, despite some technical problems, the anime screening was pretty cool!… the library has a pretty big theatre (or concert hall), so we watched a bunch of anime and japanese live-action on the BIG SCREEN!… and there were maybe about 20-30 people (mostly college geek guys and girls) in the entire theatre… hmmm, so we watched:
so, a total of about 6 hours!… except for “elfen lied”, i got to see stuff i hadn’t seen before, and it’s been a while since i went to any kind of theatre ;)… looks like i’ll be there next month, august 19th ;))) |

That’s a lot of anime, Jay.

well, from what they actually played, half was japanese live-action… though 2-3 hours of anime is still quite a bit, i’ve had days when i’m close to finishing a great dramatic series, and i’ll watch 6-8 half-hour episodes straight to the climactic conclusion, haha ;)

I wish Superman Returns had a climactic conclusion. haha

if it was that bad, i suppose walking out was the “climactic conclusion” ;)

That’s very true, Jay. Well said.

I’m glad you were able to go and had such a good time :)

well, the seats could’ve been better; they didn’t lean back, and when i put my feet up, had to position them so the seat edges wouldn’t cut into my ankles, ergh

sounds like it was fun — all excellent viewing material!

true, it was!… but maybe less “kamen rider” (that “power rangers” style ain’t quite my cup o’ tea, lol) and “zatoichi” (not quite the best note to end a 6-hour marathon, lol)…
fortunately, that “densha otoko” tv version of the famous train story was freakin’ hilarious! (reminds me of “genshiken”, hehehe)

Yeah gomen about the copious schedule revisions and hemming and hawing..
After the PC gave up the ghost and then the backup DVD wouldn’t read we were officially in Panic mode ^_^
Next month we’ll try to do the regular schedule and you’ll get to see Parakiss, Monster, CUTEY HONEY MOVIE (I have secured the HK DVD w/ English subs), in addition to what we showed in July. Kamen Rider and other Sentai shows unfortunately are compared to Power Rangers, but give Kabuto a chance the storyline is a lot better than your typical Ranger fare. Anywho..thanks for coming out Jay, and tell more people about our group.. we’re gunning for this type of audience!
oh yeah..

lol, didn’t hafta explain the panic… shit happens…
okay, i’ll give “kamen” a try, and now that i’ve seen what the program’s like, i’ll try to tell some people… in fact, you might try the community; there are always people shouting out their bands or suggestions for things to buy or places to go…
but no need to add the LVO URL again; i already had it in my post!
