Boa vs Python

I want to prove that any entry, even about the weirdest of subjects, can be graded as a GA and become an FA with the help and input of the Wikipedia community. . Hence, I have chosen one of my favorite bad movies of all time to test my theory. I am looking for pointers and advice for all areas on the entry page. I believe with a lot of hard work, this article, about one of the worst films ever made, can blossom into a well written, peer reviewed masterpiece and one day achieve FA status.

Hee, well... Even though I have my doubts of such like this attaining that, it's really worth the work to see one of these SciFi original movies.

Firstly, the film's called Boa vs. Python. Though, the main problem with all these films is that there's primarily not a whole lot of information on them, i.e. Black Hole.. But I think we could try proving that fact wrong with Wikipedia. If you happen to actually have a DVD thereof, that would prolly be a tremendous help. DrWho42 19:07, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, expanding/improving the bit on the plot/synopsis would be helpful. Getting rid of the Cast segment should be done, I think, since we could always look it up on IMDb and alot of the actors don't seem as notable as others. If there's director's or so-and-so's commentary thereon, that would prove useful for a Trivia section or for something concerning the Production aisle. And possibly critical reception if there is any.. Anything that's notable should be noted and a screenshot would be neat. DrWho42 19:45, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Dr.Who except you should not put a Trivia section in, those are unencyclopedic. Also the cast section needs to stay in. Most importantly the article needs a Production and critical reception sections. Also see if you see how many people watched it the night it was on. Maybe a SciFi channel press release, or one of the orginizations that track TV ratings might have the info. And of course you need references and footnotes.

The cast section should be cut down. Not entirely now that you mention it, but downsized well-enough with some notes as to who-and-who was cast. I don't think we really need to know who plays Soldier No.1 through 3... Don't you? Didn't think so.. Unless they're pretty major, otherwise if they're simply minor characters whose appearance is little less than a special cameo don't include them. It's like saying who played "Fat Zombie" or "Hare Krishna Zombie" in Dawn of the Dead. I quite agree with you though. These B-movies seem to deliver good enough ratings for SciFi to sign on for a deal of having the most of them in a year.. With Alien Apocalypse being the highest rate, s'posedly.. Some year or so ago, anyways. Also, how 'bout try to create articles for corresponding things, like the director? What other films did he do and what inspired him or tempted him to do this?

You're right, the cast section should ony include the notable cast. Medvedenko 06:29, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks to everyone so far, I will begin cutting down the cast section. As far as ratings go, I don't know where to find them. I will dig. TruthCrusader 08:30, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ok I have cut the cast list down and expanded the synopsis into more detail. How does it look so far? TruthCrusader 22:02, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
