  • Support as nominator --Crisco 1492 (talk) 08:34, 19 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Its kind of impressive. Personally, I would prefer a video about half as long (close to 20 minutes is quite a while, especially if some people are not as particularly interested as others.) Dusty777 (talk) 17:57, 19 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • And resolution could be higher at that length. Sadly, a shorter clip would have less EV as it would not show the whole film. As the article is about the film, the entirety easily has the highest EV. Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:21, 19 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support I wonder if it couldn't slot into Cardiopulmonary bypass and/or something on animal experimentation. I vote having watched the first 15 mins, still watching the rest. JJ Harrison (talk) 10:41, 20 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Very interesting, especially the revival of severed dog's head. I agree, however, that the footage deserves a higher resolution. Brandmeister t 23:55, 20 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Agreed entirely. Once the software supports it, we could look for a 200 mb file or something similar. Until then... Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:50, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
