Earlier this year, Dr. Sam Waldron participated in a symposium of three views of the book of Revelation. The video and audio of this discussion is now available through the ministry American Vision. Here is a taste of the symposium:
a : a social gathering at which there is free interchange of ideas
b : a formal meeting at which several specialists deliver short addresses on a topic or on related topics
c : a collection of opinions on a subject; especially : one published by a periodical
d : discussion
In February of 2013, three biblical scholars set out to debate discuss three separate views of Revelation in Reno, Nevada.

debateddiscussed the Idealist position. - Gary DeMar, M. Div, RTS
debateddiscussed the Preterist (partial) position. - Dr. James Hamilton, Asst. Professor of biblical studies, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary

What happened however turned out not to be a typical talking head debate symposium on the book of Revelation.
