 * Yes he was deaf. If you recall, he a set of headphones that supposedly helped him hear, but when he found Bodie, it healed him and he took the headphones off. Cyberia23 06:03, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Solarbabies.jpg
Image:Solarbabies.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

Unbiased tone
I've been behind and in front of the camera, and I've done a lot of professional writing. The professional critics cited in the article are not representative. (Check the Netflix reviews, the articulate reviewers are very positive, and the fewer negative reviewers are often largely foaming.) Apparently this movie sets off so much revulsion in some people they can't even explain their emotional response. My suspicion is that sci-fi lovers have trouble imagining that children will have any real part in the future. It will all be robots and super-smart people. You know, not kids.

Anyhow, after trying to impart causality to the peculiar negative response to what is a well-filmed and well-acted movie, it would be nice, given the unusually good reviews in Netflix, if someone found a review that balanced that of Leonard Maltin with that of the "neutral tone expected of an encyclopedia"? 76.102.1.193 (talk) 13:40, 28 April 2012 (UTC)
