I've only played one Assassin's Creed game (the second, which lots of people rate). I thought it was pretty rubbish.

I think I tried the original one first, and had a similar experience. I seemed to spend a lot of time riding a horse (apparently my poor navigational skills extend beyond the real world:LOL:). I think the more recent additions to the series have improved (though there are so many I kind of lost interest).

I've always loved the concept of AC.

Yeah, that's the best thing about it by far, for me. But as Thad says:

So I'll probably wait till DVD and even then keep my expectations lower than a teeny tiny limbo dancer in action. Maybe this is the one that lives up to the hype though...:cautious:

I noticed they'd changed the carpets. And the lighting. And the seats. And the sound system. And that you couldn't go out the back any more.

Hmm, sounds like it might not be the cinema you're looking for?;)

I might go see Rogue One.

Oh, is that coming out in December? I'd completely forgotten all about it, and am totally not counting down the days.:whistle:
 
I discovered mind mapping in the 80s with Tony Buzan's books and have played with it, on and off, ever since - for non-fiction, essays and the like.
Just came across 'clustering' from Gabriele Rico's book, Writing the Natural Way, and now having some fun with it. In theory, the clusters will spur me into getting this year's nanowrimo writing underway.

I like mind mapping a lot :)
 
Gonk, must admit, whilst it looks good I'm unsure if I'll end up going to see it. Not much of a cinema-goer, as the anecdote before suggests.

Thoughts on today's news.

Wonderful article.

I do have one point to nitpick, though, to wit: "Christianity, like all global religions, is a woman-scorning creed, one that actively and maliciously reduces women to second class citizens."

I'd point out that this doesn't pertain to all religions. I follow a Celtic Druidry path. The Celts held women in high esteem. Like the Norse, women could be warriors (though if recent discoveries pan out, not in such numbers). In fact, several of our heroes - especially the greatest warrior, Cuchulainn, were trained by women!

Just sayin'. ;)
 
That's a not unreasonable point, and I do take it. As one well versed in matters of paganism, I, like many others, don't consider paganism a religion - for the same reason I don't consider animism a religion. But - fair point. There were some ancient historical cultures post-3000B.C. that were more fair to women. But I did use the word "global" deliberately!
 
For some reason, Jo, that title made me think of Will Smith's 'Getting Jiggy With It'.

Aye, it's difficult to keep going, just because of the numbers. Fortunately, I'm blessed with an obnoxious level of stubbornness.

Anyway, in my ruthless drive to interrogate Chrons one person at a time, I collared someone else today. Behold the merciless questioning: Thaddeus the Sixth: Interview with Teresa Edgerton
