About The Shining, the article states "and the American Film Institute has ranked it as the 27th greatest thriller film of all time". I'm pretty sure it's at #29 and not #27. Also, I suggest adding "in 2001", since the ranking is from that year. And maybe include an internal link to AFI's 100 Years...100 Thrills, for instance the text "has ranked it". --62.166.252.25 (talk) 11:07, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
:{{done}} I confirmed that 29 is correct with the existing source and also made these other changes, thanks. Jamedeus (talk) 15:52, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

Subject-verb agreement
Current sentence: The scientific realism and innovative special effects in his science fiction epic 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) was a first in cinema history, and the film earned him his only Academy Award (for Best Visual Effects).
Corrected sentence: The scientific realism and innovative special effects in his science fiction epic 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) were a first in cinema history, and the film earned him his only Academy Award (for Best Visual Effects).
Explanation: The subject is plural: "The scientific realism and innovative special effects," so the verb should be "were" instead of "was." 71.167.230.104 (talk) 15:12, 27 November 2024 (UTC)
