  • Most publications on this topic seem to be from people involved in the movement, and therefore not independent sources. It might make sense to expand the article on film studies with an account of recent developments including studies of audience and reception, which are becoming more popular.[1][2][3] (links include bibliographies) Topics like audience reception could also be expanded to cover film. But I'm at a loss for how best to proceed with this article (I think there have been pieces in some specialist publications on HoMER, but couldn't find much). --Colapeninsula (talk) 14:58, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete No independent sources; all the references are self-referential. Maybe someday this group will come out with something to make them notable, but I'm not seeing any evidence of notability now. --MelanieN (talk) 02:34, 22 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
