The Fellowship is pleased to present our discussion on the career and the impact of Adam West to the geek community. For an actor who was essentially typecast, he managed to have a very long and diverse career, both embracing Batman and creating other memorable characters along the way. And as always, our picks of the week.
What we're up to this week:
I Am Your Father - documentary about Dave Prowse and his uncomfortable relationship with Star Wars (a good if sad watch)
Why Horror? - Showtime documentary about the phenomenon of horror media (an interesting look at horror)
RPGs on Facebook groups - the modern version of message boards and/or play by mail (with a quick mention of Roll20)
