I'd like to support David Desser's insightful comments on the whole BLADE RUNNER issue and suggest some significant additions to the Screen-L guidelines. 1. No major film should be discussed on this network unless the participants show familiarity with the previous literature available on the film and state (with reference to this material) how their interpretation differs from others commonly available. 2. The moderator should distinguish genuine enquiries and discussions from those mailings by students who wish contributors to write their papers for them. If such requirements are followed, then SCREEN-L will distinguish itself from other gossip lists readily available for those wanting a more informal and less academic approach.
