In a few years, it had to fold because it could not grow its subsciber base enough. Sure did like that magazine, though. Had some good stuff in it. Sad thing is there hasn't been anything (that I have seen on the racks) to replace it, since. And that's been over 25 years ago.Voyle Gloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08526304393597593613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6021667419907767409.post-65587205560499681392009-03-25T09:43:00.000-04:002009-03-25T09:43:00.000-04:00Yeah the western as apple pie - like that.

It's a Hopalong Cassidy movie, but not the Hoppy most people are familiar to viewers of TV.<BR/>The movie has been heavily criticized as amateurish, one of the nicer things said about it. But it was intended as, I think, an homage to those Saturday theater movies of the early fifties with the stalwart, white hat wearing hero. <BR/>It's by no means a great movie, but if you approach it in that respect, it's tolerable. Martin Sheen and Robert Carradine are in it, with Chris Lybbert playing Hoppy.Randy Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04738462837640721126noreply@blogger.com
