Sourcing from Wordpress[edit]

An Anon. IP ([[User:75.87.231.156‎|75.87.231.156) has been making repeated attempts at adding a source from a blog hosted by Wordpress. While this has been explained to the IP on a number of occasions on their talk page, the IP has still been attempted to add a "review" by a personal blog of the Paranormal Activity 2 trailer. This source fails WP:RS, and seems as more of an attempt to promote the blog than top improve WP. I do not want to get stuck in a revert war, but I will report the IP if the additions of the source continue. Angryapathy (talk) 18:46, 7 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

References[edit]

Ref. 9 to yahoo links to a trailer for the first movie, not the trailer described. --03crichardson (talk) 11:27, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Corrected. Thanks for the notice. --uKER (talk) 13:03, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

COME ON!!![edit]

Is anyone actually going to add to the plot of the article?!? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.210.201.101 (talk) 00:54, 22 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

People haven't even had time to finish watching it yet. Give it time. Mike Allen 01:07, 22 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Continuity with original film[edit]

Is it worth adding a discussion of the relationship between this film, and the first film? It's not really consistent with the original internet-only version of Paranormal Activity, in which Katie is shot. I think that's interesting, but it's obviously not necessary.

It should only be added if it can be referenced to a reliable source. The past 24 hours have seen far too much original research added toi the article. HiLo48 (talk) 20:37, 23 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Is it really relevant to mention consistency issues between this film and an alternate ending of the original? The original film established that Katie killed Micah and then "disappeared", which is where the final moments of the sequel picks up. (The "Katie's suicide" version was added as an alternate ending on the DVD; the "cop" one appears to be available only on the internet in illegal downloads.) I watched Paranormal Activity 2 today and confess I noticed no continuity errors but I'm not always the most observing of individuals; if there are any, I agree it would be interesting if they can be sourced. =) Emperor Wu (talk) 02:48, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Final portion of the Summary[edit]

This is pretty poorly worded...i have no idea who 'who' is.

"That night, Kristi violently attacks Dan and snatches Hunter, who chases her into the basement and touches her with the cross, who screams and collapses. "

I'm not a registered user and am just sort of passing through, and this is a locked article - so just letting whoever's in control know. 70.43.52.210 (talk) 17:23, 28 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Overall writing and continuity[edit]

This isn't a very well written article overall. It has some grammar and continuity issues. especially towards the middle and end of the article.

"The violence continues to escalate, and Kristi is tormented further; the Martine, the family's German Shepherd dog, Abby, is attacked and pulled violently off camera and apparently suffers a seizure."

The Martine? what?

"The next scene shows Dan putting Kristi to bed and then burning a photo of a young Katie (which Micah, Katie's boyfriend, would later find in the attic of their house, as depicted in the original film."

Original film? As in this is a remake? Or are you referencing the first film?

Last sentence[edit]

I think there should be mentioned that the baby is crying but while dragged out of the room (by Katie) it slowly turns into laughter. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.203.235.225 (talk) 00:18, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

the movie[edit]

when i saw the movie i was like a ok whatever not scary at all but at the end i was so scared it just freaked me the fuck put of me! only at the end really i wonder of it was cased on a true story?!?!?!?

Main "franchise page"[edit]

Hello guys,

I was just thinking about the series and I had the thought of a page covering all of the films and their box offices, budget, reviews, who is in each film etc. The normal stuff on a page about a film series like James Bond or The Bourne films (which have one had three same as this one).

But what do you guys think? I don't mind trying to do it (I haven't done one before but I could try) or someone else could, but how about a main page for the franchise as a whole just like the Twilight film series or Harry Potter or James Bond has and like I mentioned the Bourne Film series (which have three films like PA do).

I've decided to create it myself. But it needs a lot of work and support as I'm not too sure on how to do certain things and I'm sure there is someone who would be able to do it quickly in thirty minutes to an hour probably
