New movies in the LRC

I just wanted to call your attention to some of the new Japanese films that have come in to the Language Resource Center this year. Most of them are quite recent, and there's a nice mixed bag of drama, comedy, horror, samurai, ninjas, anime, giant superheroes... often all in the same movie. They aren't available to check out, but they can be viewed in the LRC and, if anyone would like one to be added to eVideon for remote viewing online, just let me know.
