Talk:Gnomeo & Juliet

Untitled
It is okay for this film to have an article now, as the animation is deep into production, with some of the footage being shown at Cannes.The Editor 155 (talk) 14:30, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

Page Format
I have added the film’s official site to the external links section, as well as the film’s official Facebook page, in line with the External Links guidline. I have also added Julie Waters & Richard Wilson to the cast, switched Elton John from Producer to Executive Producer and have credited him for “Music by” to more accurately reflect the film’s credits.

I propose, per the Maunaul of Style (Film) restructuring the article to include a Plot headline and a Characters headline. Doing so would help to clear up the article’s lead section. I’ve put together this proposed revision in my Sandbox: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:HipJorge/Gnomeo_%26_Juliet. Thoughts? HipJorge (talk) 01:18, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

I went ahead and restructured the article. If anyone has any thoughts or comments on the changes I'd be happy to discuss them. HipJorge (talk) 13:25, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Move?
According to the poster, the movie appears to be Gnomeo & Juliet, rather than Gnomeo and Juliet. Or are there, I dunno, interviews and official sources and stuff that refer to the movie with an and? Harry Blue5 (talk) 18:46, 5 February 2011 (UTC)

Gnomeo and Juliet → Gnomeo & Juliet — We follow the title (Gnomeo & Juliet) or keep it like this (Gnomeo and Juliet)? Have your say.

I think we should follow the title in the poster.-- Silvergoat (talk∙contrib) 08:56, 21 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Support per MOS:&: "Retain ampersands in titles of works or organizations, such as The Tom & Jerry Show or AT&T." I think it is fair to say that if the guidelines encourage retaining the ampersand when using the title in running prose, we should make sure the article title matches what we use. Erik (talk &#124; contribs) 16:29, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
 * We should put use of & in WP:Name so people have guidance on usage. There may at one time have been an objection to using casual or unusual name formats, though I don't think that has been the case for some time. Names of works of art, film, literature, music, bands, etc, are generally portrayed how they are presented. Gnomeo & Juliet is the correct name, so that is the one we should use, though it would be appropriate when creating such articles to also create a redirect from possible searches such as "Gnomeo and Juliet".

Music by
Just wanted to let you all know that I've added Bernie Taupin under Music by in the infobox, but have specified that it was lyrics that he contributed. I'd also like to point out that Disney is a client of my company, and that while I see this could be a conflict of interest, hopefully everyone agrees that my edit to the page is justified. Thanks!

Home Media
Hey, I think the home media section could use some improvements, so I drafted a copy of a new version here. If I could get some feedback on the draft, that would be great. Thanks.--TravisBernard (talk) 15:21, 20 April 2011 (UTC)


 * I think it looks good enough to go ahead and drop in the article. The only thing I spot that needs a fix is that the date format should be switched to U.S. style, since that's what we have throughout the article (or we could switch the other dates since it's a UK/US co-production, I guess).  Isn't there a template for dates that will allow them to display according to the user's regional preference?  If I'm not making that up, maybe we should drop that in.  If there's any other fine tuning needed, editors with more experience in that sort of section can tweak it (I'm not one of them).  It's a significant improvement over the section as it currently stands.  Nice work.  Millahnna (talk) 16:55, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
 * I didn't see any sort of template in the Manuel of Style, but it looks like consistency, as you mentioned, is important. I'll switch the dates to the US style for now.  Is there another template that you are referencing?  --TravisBernard (talk) 15:12, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Honestly, I'm not certain I'm even remembering correctly. It's something I think I've seen in passing while editing articles.  But I could be thinking of something else entirely.  I can't seem to track it down so I don't think it's that important.  Millahnna (talk) 01:05, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
 * I went ahead and made the edits. If you find the template you were referencing, please let me know.  Thanks.  --TravisBernard (talk) 13:08, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

The Frogs Voice
On The Cartoon, The Big Battle, The Black Snake From Power Rangers Megaforce Makes The Frog Eat Plastic And Gives The Frog An Strange Male Voice When All The Zords Are Inside The Frog Says "The Cost Is Clear But I'm Not Clear" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.156.210.251 (talk) 06:49, 22 October 2013 (UTC)

Box office results
The article reports revenue in an unusual manner: "the film had a worldwide opening of $30.7,000,000, finishing in second place behind Just Go with It ($35.8,000,000).[26][27] However, on its second weekend —Presidents' Day weekend— it topped the worldwide box office (although not being in first place either in North America[28] or overseas[29]) with $29.8,000,000, ahead of Unknown which ranked second ($26.4,000,000)" [bold emphasis added]

Can we get the numbers translated to a recognized format? I would tackle this project but the numbers get stranger as the section goes on. Jnmwiki (talk) 00:40, 1 April 2018 (UTC)

The edits were made - thank you. Jnmwiki (talk) 21:19, 29 June 2018 (UTC)


 * I think the article could be more comprehensive if insert some up-to-date sources, especially in the "responses to the movie" sectionHeping Zhang (talk) 19:48, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
