I quite like it. The entry(ies), that is, I haven't seen the film, although it does have Adam Hann-Byrd in it and he's cool. You really include a lot of information. Dunno if it's entirely suitable for the guide though, I mean a review of a film mostly depends on someone's interpretation/opinion of it. This entry would be better with some sort of introduction, but I guess A1363367 is the introduction, right?

I think a series of entries like this would be better served if they were presented like the (outgoing) University Projects - list of entries grouped at the top and maybe one link at the bottom to lead you onto the next entry.

And if they're presented like a Uni project, then no promises, but they might find themselves occupying that slot on the Front Page once they're all accepted...

Hey, that's a good idea, I saw a list at the bottom but it would be better at the top. Is Bluebottle here????

Yep - still here.
Yes, I had hoped that this would be a University project but as the university no longer exists it's ended up here.
Personally I find having a list of links at the top to be very annoying - by the time you've scrolled down to the bottom of the page having to scroll all the way up to the top again just to click on a link to the page you want seems a little silly to me - and having a link at the bottom of the page didn't seem to affect my projects on Dinosaurs of the Isle of Wight, Isle of Wight Piers, Anglo-Saxon Isle of Wight or Isle of Wight Shipwrecks.

Hmmm, fair enough, if just if someone stumbles across one of the middle entries they will be confused as it has no introduction, and won't realise it's part of a set until they get to the bottom. (Like me.)

I agree that it can be annoying to scroll back up, but that's why I was suggesting having all the links at the top (for handy reference) but then a link at the bottom to the next entry - like the belief project on the Front Page at the moment.

True - although if you use Goo or alabaster you can see links at the top right of the articles anyway, which immediately lets the viewer know that it is one in a series.

I'll leave it up to whoever ends up editing the articles - but I would prefer to keep them together.

Your Guide Entry has just been picked from Peer Review by one of our Scouts, and is now heading off into the Editorial Process, which ends with publication in the Edited Guide. We've therefore moved this Review Conversation out of Peer Review and to the entry itself.

If you'd like to know what happens now, check out the page on 'What Happens after your Entry has been Recommended?' at EditedGuide-Process. We hope this explains everything.

Thanks for contributing to the Edited Guide!

Well, that's good news.

Congratulations!

Although at the moment I seem to have the first article in the series pending, but not the others, making me wonder if they've been split up...? See A2116559
