This looks pretty decent on first glance; will review in more detail and leave comments over the next few days. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 01:30, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
- Ok... thanks for the quick grab :P Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs(talk) 02:00, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
- Couldn't resist -- as a young Aussie on my first trip to the States in '86 I saw Voyage Home and Croc Dundee in San Diego and LA respectively, within a few days of each other, so the article brought back pleasant memories... Both fish-out-of-water stories that couldn't help but resonate with a traveller... ;-) Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 02:52, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
Well, this is a biggie -- lots of detail so I assume you'll be moving to FAC before long -- reckon it should do okay there. I haven't verified all references by any means but the sources look reliable, images appear to be correctly licensed, coverage is full and unbiased, and the prose is fine. Aside from my little ce, just a few minor concerns before passing...
Article dab links:
Design:
- Who or what is "Rodis"?
- "...lighting the model practically" -- don't quite understand the use of "practically" here.
Effects:
- "The probe's effects on Earth include generating cloud cover and vaporizing the oceans." -- this one-sentence para just sort of hangs there: 1) shouldn't we be discussing how these effects were created, not simply what they were; 2) in any case the para needs citation.
- "Most shots of the humpback whales were scale models shot at their studio..." -- whose studio (not the humpback whales' I assume)? ;-)
Release:
- The $21 million mentioed here disagrees with the $24 million mentioned in the infobox -- they should be consistent.

- I believe I have addressed all the above issues. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs(talk) 14:52, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
- Yes indeed, happy to pass -- well done! Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 23:18, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
