This Director's standing in Hollywood
Maybe somebody can find and add to the article some information on this Director's reputation in Hollywood. His movies that he directed might actually be good movies, at least good enough for a so-called cult-following. But Overall, his movies lose money. Maybe theres some published commentaries about whether Hollywood considers this director to be a viable director who can still direct a movie and maybe make money for a film's investors?

Death
New news and a graphic video depicts him being beheaded, if someone could add more information than me just adding the death date that would be great although i'm not entirely sure about if the death date is correct, it is the most recent * source.

Wrong James Foley — Preceding unsigned comment added by 157.22.10.114 (talk) 23:59, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Wrong person, see James Wright Foley. Boddefan2009 (talk) 00:29, 20 August 2014 (UTC)

Move
Is this person notable enough to be simply James Foley? I'd never heard of him before today & that's only b/c I was looking for the journalist James Foley. It seems like James Foley (director) might be a better title for this page. Blaylockjam10 (talk) 10:03, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
 * See WP:COMMONNAME and WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. The hatnotes suffice. —  Wylie pedia  18:14, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
 * That's my question. Is this James Foley really the primary topic when it comes to people looking for James Foley (regardless of the James Foley currently in the news)? Blaylockjam10 (talk) 04:19, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, as he has directed GGR and various other distributed films. Poltoratsk (talk) 05:28, 22 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Support move This page should be moved to James Foley (director). James Foley should be a disambiguation page. There is more than one James Foley with a lot of persistent media attention.  Blue Rasberry   (talk)  11:19, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 22 August 2014: incorrect reference
This section is incorrect: it refers to James Foley, the journalist in Iraq who was beheaded, not to the film director James Foley. The link source is the video of Foley's parents being questioned and should also be removed. Copy to be removed:

Death
James Foley died on August 20, 2014 while in Iraq documenting ISIS insurgents. He was supposedly beheaded after the ISIS Fighters captured him. (Written on August 21, 2014, subject to change.)

✅ Thanks for pointing that out. Bizarrely, this article is semi-protected, but James Foley (photojournalist) who was murdered, is not - Arjayay (talk) 08:15, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
