  • We need this notable film up to GA, but there's a hell lot of work to be done in terms of cleanup and trivia moving. I've done some work on it, but I need some other users helping.

  • The most successful collaborations I have seen are broad topics which already have lots of decent information already on Wikipedia. There is lots of information online to improve these articles and they are of broad interest. This nomination in itself isn't that important (although it is the transition to French New Wave, Fellini's drift away from realism, the rise of the anti-Western make it pretty important) but I think collaborations should be broad articles or stuff like from Template:Worldcinema. gren グレン 05:22, 31 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm glad to see Jason and the Argonauts mentioned, but I'd like to see more about what was else was happening in the history of animation during the 1960s. It was a time of great experimentation, especially in the animated short film such as the work from Zagreb Film and Bambi Meets Godzilla. There was also great commercial success with Disney's Winnie the Pooh and MGM's Pink Panther shorts. Although most animated features of the time were kiddie fare made on the cheap (at least in comparison to the Disney features of the 1940s-1950s), there were a handful of technically accomplished, smart features like The Jungle Book and Yellow Submarine that might be worth mentioning as well. --GHcool 05:51, 31 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • This is an important film in the history of cinema that inspired countless imitators and spawend two sequels, a TV show, books, comics, etc. I think that this article has a great chance of reaching GA and even FA status. All it needs pretty much is a decent lead in paragraph or two and maybe some minor edits. --J.D. 17:51, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • I agree with J.D., I think it should be qualified for the GA status. One of my favorite Harrison Ford films. ThinkBlue 15:04, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
