• An important film featuring two of the best performances in recent years: Charlize Theron (for which she won the Academy Award for Best Actress) as the serial killing prostitute Aileen Wuornos and Christina Ricci as her lover. It would be nice to include some details about the production and pre-production processes, with specific attention to Theron's preparation for the role and how she and the film's make-up designer achieved the look for Aileen. --GHcool 07:24, 14 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• An great film which plays an important role in Korean culture as well as in international filmaking. Directed by Park Chan Wook, this neo-noir tragedy has won best director and grand jury prize at Cannes in 2004. I'd like to see some info on production and pre-production precesses, as well as more info on the film's release and more info on the film's critic reaction.

• 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]
