- I take, will review in the next 24 hours.--Launchballer 02:33, 21 May 2026 (UTC)
- Big dislike on using QPQs that are more than a year old, but as there is no rule prohibiting that I'll take them. Both articles are long and new enough and Earwig has no issues. Can't see any issues that deserve maintenance templates. Will assess the hooks later.--Launchballer 14:20, 21 May 2026 (UTC)
- Launchballer, thanks for taking this on for review! As for the QPQs, that is because I have been on a wikibreak from DYK since September last year. I am still doing new QPQs, so I do not think there is anything to worry about. It is just that I still had several QPQs left before my break, and I plan to use them for my first few nominations after returning. After that, all QPQs will be freshly completed. —👑PRINCE of EREBOR📜 18:15, 21 May 2026 (UTC)
(No, thank you. Double noms are always useful during backlog mode.) I agree that ALT0 is the best hook; it appears to meet DYKHOOKCITE to me, so I'm approving it. I also suggest ALT8: ... that a 2019 film directed by Patrick Leung won a 2026 award for best film? from the same source.--Launchballer 23:31, 21 May 2026 (UTC)
- @Launchballer: That looks good as well! I am happy to proceed with either hook. —👑PRINCE of EREBOR📜 00:11, 22 May 2026 (UTC)

[Regarding the film’s key elements about UFO, Leung gives a clear answer: "I believe they exist". The film's inspiration comes from a large-scale UFO sighting in Wah Fu Estate, Hong Kong, in 1985. The incident was even recorded by the media and television programs at the time, and multiple witnesses gave consistent accounts: "We reconstructed it based on their descriptions".] Fung, Ka-ming (15 March 2026).

[I wanted to use the original vocals of Lo Ta-yu and Ram Chiang's version of "Queen’s Road East" (note: another pop song in the film could not be licensed in its original recording), so I wrote a letter to Lo Ta-yu’s wife. Mrs. Lo was very kind and offered us a very cheap price. Without that song, that scene would not have had its atmosphere.] Fung, Ka-ming (15 March 2026). "拍好電影：這是我們的成長故事——訪問《再見UFO》梁栢堅與錢小蕙".

[Water Chan invited Derek Hui (editor of Soul Mate) [to the team], who then also brought in Joe Zhou to help. After watching the film, Zhou created highly detailed graphic breakdowns. Once he finished his cut, the director worked with To To and made another cut, and they ultimately combined the best parts of both versions. This editing approach is quite clever, as it keeps the runtime shorter.] 蕭采薇 (26 April 2026). "專訪／神預言新冠疫情！《再見UFO》雪藏8年 導演揭秘「香港飛碟目擊事件」". ETtoday (in Chinese).

[For the youngest actor in the film who played the younger brother, who was only four or five years old, the director adopted a "hands-off approach", saying: "If he wants to sleep, let him sleep; if he wants to eat, let him eat. Don't put pressure on him. The more unaware he is, the more natural and endearing he becomes.”] 華疌 (1 May 2026). "以幻想尋找希望，探問何謂「黃金年代」──專訪《再見UFO》導演梁栢堅". Funscreen Weekly (in Chinese).

[In 2017, Leung received [her] invitation to collaborate and, after reading the first draft of the script, said to Amy Chin: "You dare to make this?" The script lacked obvious commercial or genre-driven elements and risked box-office failures. However, Chin responded that it was a film for Hong Kong people, documenting their coming-of-age experiences: "It would never be made in the future if it was not made now". Leung was convinced and decided to take on the project. He and Chin were university classmates, graduating in 1982 from Hong Kong Baptist College (now Hong Kong Baptist University).] 杜欣穎 (25 April 2026). "專訪》入行40年奪金像獎 《再見UFO》導演梁栢堅師承吳宇森「當導演就是要等」".

[[Leung] also shared that he had invited the late singer Khalil Fong to appear in the film as an easter egg, but "unfortunately, we didn't have the budget".]
