Article created on 2 March, and meets the length requirement.
Earwig reveals no copyvio and I didn't spot any instances of unacceptably
WP:Close paraphrasing. QPQ has not been done. I don't think the hook is interesting, since I think most readers will simply go "I don't understand what that means" and move on. Some comments on the content:
The same script was used for productions on Future Tense in July 1976.– unsourced.
Žižek's "masterpiece" work– this is the first mention of Slavoj Žižek in the article, so the full name should be included and linked.
Žižek's "masterpiece" work– I don't see a good reason to include "masterpiece" here. Seems like unnecessary WP:PUFFERY.
This analysis is widely used in similar works.– unsourced.

Alright, let's take another look:
an issue best known for its cover article by Willy Ley describing the Disneyland production of Man in Space which featured the famous reusable winged spaceship designed by Wernher von Braun for the show– WP:OFFTOPIC and unsourced.
This interpretation has itself become a widely used argument that has led to the story being discussed in a number of general philosophical works.– that seems like WP:ANALYSIS to me. Bell discusses the work in the context of causal loops. Preservation, Radicalism, and the Avant-Garde Canon discusses Žižek's analysis of the story and sinthome. The Woman Who Pretended to Be Who She Was: Myths of Self-Imitation discusses Žižek's analysis of the story in the context of self-imitation in art.
