I'd change the first sentence to something like "Star Wars and Alien are two popular film series set in space that both began in the late '70s and have had a number of sequels and prequels since then." because it's missing a predicate right now :)
Jessica, Champion
That's much better, thank you. :)

Good one, Jess. 'Tough choice. I haven't seen all of them but if I take my favorites from each ('Empire Strikes Back' and 'Alien'), I can't decide, and if I take my least favorites... same thing with every combination, so I'd go with my default and vote for whichever gets less votes.
Oh, and apparently the editors now prefer a period after "vs" in the titles: you know, the Chicago-style thing.

Hi Dibby. Yes, there are several differences. The IMDb editors seem to use a hybrid: for example, the Chicago Stylebook, as well as the stylebooks for the M.L.A. and A.P.A. (the other two styles, besides Chicago, that are used in academe, depending on the field, in many English speaking countries, though certainly not all) call for italics for both movie titles and TV series (and "double" quotation marks for titles of episodes). The AP uses quotes.

Jess... Indeed. If Amazon wanted to pay us, though... but that ain't gonna ever happen. ;)

Thank you Suzy!!

I'm glad my grad school education comes in handy for something, Dibby. Lol.
THANK YOU JESSICA!!!...i couldn't agree with you more...(..."it's kind of annoying we have to do everything by the Editors' demands, don't you think?"...)
too many rules...and i don't believe in rules...
can't we all just get along?...
