    I think that we should invent a new forum here about fantasy mics not presented in other forums like books and collector stuff. I don't think that opinions on the D&D movie and such should be in the normal Whatnot's forum.

    We have a forum for books. It's called Booktalk. And Whatnots is for all movies, so the D&D one fits there too. There are hardly enough D&D movies to warrant their own forum.

    I agree with Tal, we don't need a new forum. Though maybe movies should be moved in with books?

    I thought about it when I made Booktalk but I decided movies mix better with Whatnots than with books.

    But I mean all kinds of fantasy stuff like arts, minatures and not only from D&D but also from LotR and Conan and the like.

    I was thinking the other day that maybe "Music" should have it's own forum :) It tends to be a endless subject in "Whatnots" ;)

    Nah. Music is a Whatnots subject. But I agree that miniatures and stuff would be a good forum. It would probably end up like the Planescape Torment one where there's a post a year or something.

    True ... I don't use miniatures or anything now ... and barely have time to keep up with the forums as they are.

    Cosnidering the little amount of topics of that kind there's no sense in opening a separate forum for it.

    I agree with both Mathetais and Tal on this one.

    number one, it's not needed.

    number two, like Mat, i have a hard time keeping up with the forums we do have.

    I think Rutkowski is partly right.
    You should create another forum for miniatures and modeling.

    How about a whole new forum for slagging off Bush? Now you have to admit that one would be well used!
