Finally, the picks of the week. Alex says, “Smoking Aces was a movie that worked for me back when I was in College, but I don’t know how well it would hold up for me now. Otherwise, I’m interested in checking out Obsolete, as going from the stills I’ve scene it looks like a generally different art style from what I’m used to seeing for mecha anime.” Blaine says, “nothing I’ve seen jumps out at me, but I may check out Valerie if it’s convenient some day.”
