Attempted to lessen the one-sided, grandiloquent writing by (hopefully) removing personal observation, interpretation, and synthesis. Not perfect by any stretch. More help is welcomed! :D Cyphoidbomb (talk) 05:55, 23 April 2013 (UTC)
I think that you cleaned it up quite well. I did a little more copyediting and fixed some bare urls. I would call this  Fixed. Leschnei (talk) 18:53, 9 September 2016 (UTC)

@Northamerica1000: I've just checked the article and the only think that is missing is the title when you cite the references. What errors did you see? Plum3600 (talk) 14:10, 24 June 2017 (UTC)
Hi Plum3600: The titles missing create a bunch of red-colored notices stating "Missing or empty |title=", and there are many bare urls in the references section, although they are within citation templates. North America1000 18:05, 24 June 2017 (UTC)
  Partly done – Title errors fixed. Still has bare URLs though. Someone needs to utilize web archive to find the webpages in reference otherwise the links just lead to 404 errors which are not really proof. Mordecairule 18:25, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
Derek R Bullamore fixed the urls and I nested the film posters better. Personally, I would have cut them altogether, but there are no articles to use them in. Wyliepedia 23:09, 23 July 2017 (UTC)
  • Withdraw. Per WP:BURL, "Note that some citation styles, such as the MLA style, use full bibliographic citation that happen to display the text of the URL in addition to proper identifying information, like the author, date, and title of the publication. These are not considered bare URLs." North America1000 20:42, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
I removed bare URLs, but the article is still marked for globalization.
