The latter aren't quite the same as 'all the others' in my view, and good enough to get away with postmodernist tweaks that I would find irksome in other movies.<br /><br />But maybe it's just because I have a little bit of a soft spot for Julia Stiles...<br />Archduke Piccolohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15533325665451889661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6780195401099519720.post-19515753480447473632016-09-21T04:45:35.661-07:002016-09-21T04:45:35.661-07:00Scott the latest WI droped on my mat yesterday.

So...Scott I've managed to avoid the films too! Somehow yet another "American action hero movie which is the same as all the others" does not attract ! <br /> As for magazines- apparently Tabletop gaming had some kind of poll or survey- over 70% said they DID NOT want "miniatures games" in their magazine- this according to Henry when we last spoke.<br /> Mind you I do think that it is all up in the air at the moment and as it is the publishing industry almost anything could happen with little or no logic to it.

So if only WSS is around in a year I would like to think the reviews could expand to include stuff outside the scope of the issue's theme. I still like the feel of the paper (literally).<br />Also the scope of Warners "Tabletop Gaming" may change.<br /><br />That said if magazines fold the community can be accused of not supporting them one way or another.<br /><br />Scott<br />P.S. Robert Ludlum wrote the Bourne identity etc. So there is a good chance while Big Andy has not read a Ludlum book he may have seen the film of a bookScott1314@virginmedia.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14995050869759993189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6780195401099519720.post-48540427302314520022016-09-11T04:48:50.422-07:002016-09-11T04:48:50.422-07:00Steve - these "extra" pages are those th...
