Circling the Christmas Tree like a hawk scouting a delectable mouse, Univarn swooped down in attack formation. Sister at his side, parents in the rear, he fired a handful of particle wrapping ray missiles. With precise movements and careful calculations he released his talons and scooped up an assortment of cinematic awesomeness. Don't believe me? See for yourself:

The usual Uni Rants :)
Also, keep an eye out for some very special announcements and perhaps even contests over the next month!

I got mostly books and gift cards, as well as chocolate (my weakness). Also got a copy of Letters from Iwo Jima from my bro. All in all, it was a good haul.
Lots of goodness coming up on LiE! Looking forward to read these posts. Merry Christmas Ryan :)
Merry Christmas, Ryan.
What does the * near 'The Fighter' and 'True Grit' mean?
@MovieNut14 Nice, glad you got what you wanted. I think most any sweet is my weakness (minus anything with nuts in them - I prefer to keep some things separate :P)
@Castor You too, and thanks!
@Lesya The * means that I may not be seeing both soon so how quickly I get those posts up is up in the air.
Lovely haul. I myself had a decent one and plan on doing a post on it sometime early next week. I bought that Seven Samurai Box yesterday from my go-to used DVD place who have a 40% off everything boxing day sale so I paid like 20 bucks for it and like 30 for the Yojumbo/Sanjuro box. It was a Merry Christmas indeed.
Keep up the good work sir.
