Talk:Nickelodeon Studios/Archive 1

List of works produced or distributed by Nickelodeon Studios
I've removed this list, because it seems sloppy&mdash;You Can't Do That on Television was produced in Canada, and I'm not sure if they actually had an animation facility.

Also, Nickelodeon Studios was a production facility, not a production company. tregoweth 23:42, September 12, 2005 (UTC)

Mention of YTMND?
Should we mention the YTMND fad and outcry over the studios closing?

Also that website that is linked has articles that say the studio still exists, and all that was removed was the slime geyser. It also said Universal and Nick were still working together.


 * YTMND should not be mentioned. They didn't even notice it was closed until a year after it happened. The linked site clearly states that the building no longer houses Nickelodeon production staff. Nickelodeon still has a contract with Universal Orlando that allows Nickelodeon characters such as Jimmy Neutron to be used in rides and attractions throughout the park. However, Nickelodeon Studios is long dead. TheNewMinistry 03:47, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

--DragonX83 (talk) 21:08, 28 April 2008 (UTC) The outcry over the death of the studio should be mentioned. Many fans of early nickelodeon shows have set up projects such as Operation Tombstone. The youtube fan out cry is the worst. The horrors that surround it are terrible. Many fans cry while watching those videos, I say include the legends of nickelodeon studios in the article.

Time Capsule Status
Does anyone know what the current status of the time capsule is? All the article says is that it was removed. If more information is available it would be really useful. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.135.175.69 (talk • contribs)

 * Click here to read more about the time capsule, it's at the very bottom. Yes, the time capsule was removed, early August of 2006. Abby724 23:36, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

they say its being kept at the nickelodeon family suites, and it it probably going to be reburied there, it will still be opened in 2042

I gotta be there! It will be awesome. But another 36 years to wait!! :'( --ShadowLaguna 18:38, 4 Februsary 2006 (DMT+12)


 * Don't get your hopes up. The Nick Hotel Could be Closing in 2009 when the new Nickelodeon Resorts By Marriott opens in San Diego. Stitchon 18:44, 5 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Maybe they will re-bury it at the Nickelodeon Universe theme park at Mall of America in Bloomington, Minnesota in 2009, just a thought. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sponge1987 (talk • contribs) 20:01, 15 October 2007 (UTC)


 * I just deleted another Time Capsule mention. Once I see a photo of it on hotel grounds with proof such as a picture around the area of where it is, then I will leave them up. Stitchon (talk) 21:26, 25 January 2008 (UTC)


 * I again deleted a Time Capsule Mention. It is not at The Nickelodeon Family Suites. Stop mentioning it on Wikipedia, it is speculation and not true. If you have any photos or official material, post it here and I will revert it. Thanks.

As noted below, at one time, wikipedia had link to a series of articles that chronicled the life of the Nickelodeon Studios. One of the articles DID mention that the Time Capsule had indeed been transfered to the Nickelodeon Family Suites. The problem is, the organization that maintained website shut it down and the broken link was subsequently removed from the wikipedia listing. If my memory is correct, the articles were taken mostly from the Orlando Sentinel. But without a paid subscription, it is impossible to scan archived copies of the newspaper. 72.93.81.74 (talk) 02:34, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

I am quoting from a comment to a Nickelodeon Hotel video on youtube: "The time capsule is indeed at the Nick Hotel. When you go to enter the lobby, its right outside the automatic doors." 209.130.177.141 (talk) 18:55, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Is there a picture? I want to see photographic proof. 76.20.110.238 (talk) 00:30, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

The phrase "Nickelodeon Time Capsule" redirects here, and there is no mention of it. Perhaps the redirect should be changed if everybody's so set on having no mention of it. SkyDot (talk) 03:27, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

For people wanting to see the Nickelodeon time capsule as it looks today just inside the main entrance to the Nickelodeon Hotel you can see a picture of it here:

The top plate has been changed, but it still reads "Open April 30, 2042", so unless Nickelodeon says otherwise, the opening date is still intact. 96.233.38.52 (talk) 12:02, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

travesty
ok, random, yes, but goddamn this is a fucking fudging travesty! No one knows where the Slime Geyser is?!?!?! They unearthed the time capsule?!?!?! I remember when they had that poll to see what they would put in, that's our goddamn goshdarn childhood, fuckin' fudgin' pricks. Fuck Fudge the Blue Man Group.

sigh. i'm gonna breathe now, sorry. Bouncehoper 05:20, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

i agree -TheVofSteel
 * People, we cannot let our emotions cotrol us. Universal is simply trying to move on after Nickelodeon left. Their trying to cover the fact that Nickelodeon Studios is closed so they don't get complaints. So far there have only been fan pages and comments on youtube and a break in, in November 2006.Bob 2.0

Break in?-TheVofSteel


 * Yes, There was a break in sometime in November where four teenagers broke in. They took pictures and filmed themselves. Here is a video they put on youtube.
 * Watch YOUR mouth! I know I hate it when you use F-bombs! Profanity is not tolerated on Wikipedia! I censored your swear words. What if little children view this site?
 * If it makes you feel better, the good folks at Nickelodeon are going to open a theme park at the Mall of America in Bloomington, Minnesota unless you also feel bad about Camp Snoopy or the Park at MOA leaving. As a matter of fact, a WHOLE theme park dedicated to Nick instead of one attraction. That goes to show that what is Florida's loss in 2005, is in fact, New York, California, and definitely Minnesota's gain in 2008. I will always watch Nickelodeon, even when 25 to 50% of you guys think the quality of that channel has gone downhill. That's just your opinion. Not mine. Not Wikipedia's. Yours.
 * Then you like junk because that's all it's been the last seven or eight years. Way more than 50% of the people who used to watch it think that now.  If you want to be some standalone nerd please do so.  We'll just keep laughing at you.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.146.86.213 (talk) 02:34, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
 * To me, Nickelodeon is Nickelodeon, no matter how much it has changed in the last 15 years. Sponge1987 (talk) 03:31, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Fan outcry should be mentioned
From what I see on places like YTMND and YouTube, the outcry over the closing is pretty large. I believe it should be in the article. I was very unhappy myself, being a big fan of the studio. Nickelodeonfan2007 04:42, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

Time Capsule Should Have A Seperate Article
A lot of people should agree with me about this.The time capsule should have a seperate article —Preceding unsigned comment added by Colorhead12 (talk • contribs) 15:25, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

The only concern about creating a separate article about the Time Capsule is that it would be incomplete.

The Time Capsule was removed from the Universal Studios lot and transferred to the nearby Nickelodeon Family Suites (Nick Hotel) in Orlando FL. The only "official" documentation was tied into a link (which is now dead) at the bottom of the Nickelodeon Studios listing. Multiple people have reported seeing the Time Capsule on the hotel grounds, but because these reports are not considered to be "official" any and all attempts to note the new location of the Time Capsule are expunged from wikipedia articles. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.130.177.141 (talk) 19:45, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Nick studios.jpg

I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

Break-In Prank
Has anyone heard about the reckless teenagers who broke into Nick Studios when it was abandoned (And before Blue Man Group started construction)? Does anyone think this should be mentioned in the article?, Or is not that important.--Snowman Guy (talk) 21:32, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

June 2009 Pictures of former Nick Studios
I have pictures of the studio taken at Universal June 27, 2009 in full BMG livery. Would these be worth adding to this site? 72.181.3.103 (talk) 03:16, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

Nick On Sunset
should nick on sunset studios have its own page. thats where most of the shows are shot now.Extremeguy (talk) 13:49, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

Nickelodeon Animation Studios
An edit was made to the "Closure" section. The person feels that there was no animation work done in the Orlando facility. The edit also wiped out the link to the Nickelodeon Animation Studios listing. Could someone please verify if this is correct? If the change is erroneous, please revert to the October 27, 2009 version. 96.233.67.6 (talk) 12:11, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
