Was this written by AI?

Syntax and grammar are bizarre at best. Curious more than anything really. 136.32.211.54 (talk) 19:14, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It was a full fledged article 14 years ago. North8000 (talk) 14:42, 26 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Who is the target audience?

i am currently doing creative media BTEC and I am studying "mars attacks!" As my main media product. I really need to know what the target audience is for "mars attacks!" Along with who would use it according to the VALS, Socioeconomic Codes (ABC1C2DE), Phsycometrics, Uses and Gratification theory/Audience Pleasures, and if the product is considered mainstream or niche. And also possible secondary audiences. 85.255.233.114 (talk) 17:03, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Cast section

I think we should reformat the cast section using the Back to the Future article (an FA) as a model. If any other actor outside of the main actors per poster order is determined notable post-release (i.e. Jack Black), we'll use secondary sources.
