Was this movie based on Bobby London's comic or not. It doesn't look much like that, according to the movie poster...—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.232.72.148 (talkcontribs) 21:53, 29 November 2005.

No, it was not. I added some information about the connections between the comic strip and the film (or lack of). (Ibaranoff24 19:18, 6 December 2005 (UTC))

[edit] Failed "good article" nomination

This article failed good article nomination. This is how the article, as of May 8, 2007, compares against the six good article criteria:

1. Well written?: Satisfactory Contains shortened word such as ad these should be written correctly.
2. Factually accurate?: Fail Several areas are missing references such as the quote: "Dirt Duck received mostly negative reviews" and others, especially in the plot section.
3. Broad in coverage?: Pass Could be border but its satisfactory
4. Neutral point of view?: Pass No non-neutral text in it
5. Article stability? Pass
6. Images?: Pass A small selection of images, all with fair use rationales.

When these issues are addressed, the article can be resubmitted for consideration. If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to take it to a GA review. Thank you for your work so far. — The Sunshine Man 11:41, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

I don't think there is a requirement that statements in the intro need to have inline citations, and the critic's section reveals the mostly negative reviews. For the plot, probably only the "Dirty Duck is notable for its use of in-jokes." statement needs to have an inline citation. --Nehrams2020 18:06, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
