I've added an ALT1 hook for consideration by the reviewer. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 18:33, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

Looks good to go, pending QPQ. I prefer the original hook, but either one works. —howcheng {chat} 18:46, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

My bad, my eyes seemed to have completely missed that. —howcheng {chat} 18:58, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

Thanks!--TriiipleThreat (talk) 18:59, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

Thanks Howcheng. Nothing against Triiiple's original hook, but I feel the ALT I suggested is "hookier" and might get more interest/eyes to the article. Just my 2¢ as I know you said you preferred the original as well. All good either way. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 20:12, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

I prefer the original because it presents a groundbreaking aspect of the film. The second one is basically "actor does research for role", which is something not at all unexpected. —howcheng {chat} 00:59, 24 February 2018 (UTC)

Fair enough. Thanks again for the review! - Favre1fan93 (talk) 17:58, 24 February 2018 (UTC)
