Bow, the Ultimate Weapon takes first place at the box office
This summer’s seen a number of strong films, at least box-office-performance-wise. (Sector 7, for instance, has been largely panned for its story but has been racking up the ticket sales.

Personal Taste: Episode 16 (Final)

Personal Taste: Episode 14
This episode entitled “Taming My Woman”…Oh No You Di’n't, Show. I almost turned you off after the title sequence.
