There’s a moment in Paul W. S. Anderson’s “Three Musketeers” where one of titular characters bemoans the way new technologies made swordsmen obsolete.

Image: ABC.com Dear readers, since I was away last week I have a backlog. A huge backlog. I still haven’t seen the Good Wife that is how big my backlog is (I had to watch Supernatural I missed of course, but not much else). On to the pilots. I will admit, I was excited about [...]
