The New Yorker does T3

Since, you know, there were so many posts on T3, I thought I'd at least resurrect the discussion, or kill it off completely (?), with the following pretty funny quote from regular Anthony Lane in the New Yorker:
"As for the scatterings of visual wit [in T3], I would not choose to be the person who tells Arnold Schwarzenegger that the fine details of Terminator style--the leathers, the bike, the boots, and, yes, a pair of shades dusted with spangles--are now within an inch of gay fetish."
Hey, from what I'd read as a kid in the 1980s I don't think the big guy would've minded this description so much thirty years ago.
The New Yorker. I'm pretty devoted to this truly cooky magazine; have been reading it religously every week since undergrad days in 1993. It's brainy, it's moving, it's silly, it's political in a cultural way, and it's cultural in a sort of egalitarianism-of-ideas-meets-dilettantism kind of way. I also like that its 'all print' pages mixed with rather old-fashioned dorky cartoons and the occasional full-page photo by various ultra-famous American photographers is a bit of an old-fashioned nose-thumbing at the worlds of suburban audiophiles and their books on tape and wired-up addicts of the many online worlds.
Anyone else also into print magazines?
