Talk:The Erlenmeyer Flask

Untitled
Shouldn't we actually have a picture of the Erlenmeyer flask itself ? -- Beardo 03:23, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Like a screenshot of the flask that the guy is using or just any Erlenmeyer flask? If you mean to replace the screenshot in the infobox, I think the one that is there now is a more memorable shot of the episode in question.  Dismas |(talk) 09:25, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I agree the current screenshot is more memorable from this episode, but should the caption below the picture be changed? Seeing as how the article itself points out the common misconception while the current caption calling the alien fetus incorrectly "the Erlenmeyer flask" aids that same misconception. -- 15:47, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

I think we should clean up this article, as the trivia section is very poorly done, and is not written in the style of a trivia note. All the questions should be re-stated as a sub-section of statements about the questions the episode raises. Also, the caption under the screenshot of the fetus should be changed. Of course, the plot also needs expansion, but I thought this was more urgent. Simpson, Bart 23:02, 9 September 2007 (UTC)Simpson, Bart

The ending scene here which "mirrors a scene in the pilot" also "mirrors" the end to "Raiders of the Lost Ark" - either intentionally or unintentionally. I'm not an X-files expert but someone who is should consider adding this to the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 166.248.15.158 (talk) 01:36, 21 March 2012 (UTC)
 * If I see it in a reliable source I'll add it, it probably is the inspiration for it but citing it is the issue. GRAPPLE   X  01:38, 21 March 2012 (UTC)

Wow- that was fast. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 166.248.15.158 (talk) 01:40, 21 March 2012 (UTC)

Did R.W. Goodwin really say "fascinated shot"?
It seems to me that he would have said "fascinating" from the context of the Filming and Effects section. If he did say the shot was "fascinated," is that an error on his part or is there some jargony way that a shot can be fascinated?

 * I'll dig out the DVD and have a listen for it tonight. It could be a case of poor quotation (either a typo or paraphrasing a longer quote), or he could just have made a mistake speaking. GRAPPLE   X  14:27, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Well that was a bust, my DVDs don't have the commentary on them. Odd, that. GRAPPLE   X  17:44, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
