Talk:Osmosis Jones

Thrax's classification
Thrax is most definitely not scarlet fever. This is rather obvious, but just so everyone knows. Nor is he anthrax. Given that Thrax is, y'know, a virus, and both of those are bacterial infections. Nor is he avian influenza, at least not literally. Dinea 03:45, 20 August 2007 (UTC)


 * If he isn't anthrax then why is his name thrax?! I believe it was a mistake by screenwriters to depict he a virus instead of bacteria. Aminabzz (talk) 02:00, 24 June 2023 (UTC)

I personally think he is Meningitis. --24.150.24.196 (talk) 20:16, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

I don't know what kind of virus he is, but the illness he caused could be termed hypothalamosis post infectiosa Chandagnac (talk) 21:27, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

clean-up, image request templates
I removed the deletion, image, and cleanup templates from the page. The Deletion tools template is sort of a weird thing to put on the page. If you want to nominate the page for deletion, see WP:AFD. I don't see what kind of image would help as the page already has a poster from the movie. As for clean-up, if you don't like it, fix it. I fact, I think I will fix it. --Transfinite 02:55, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

Maybe we should add something?
Maybe we should add a section that mentions some of the biological impossibilities or errors in the film, such as why when Osmosis 'surfs' the tear he doesn't inflate and rupture due to the difference in water content of his cell and the tear.

Reply: No, that is merely speculation. And the movie is fictitious people know that some of it is not true.

To be fair they have a point he would explode due to water intake

Character Bios
Should the characters get their own pages?
 * Maybe if the descriptions in the main article become too long. cyclosarin 13:30, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Actually, I think I could possibly write the character descriptions on the main article. They probably wouldn't be the greatest, but they'd be functional and could be built off of. Dinea 19:26, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Done. I would very much appreciate it if someone would look over it and clean it up if they can, since I have a rather biased view and all. Dinea 03:22, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Sadly, they have been deleted. Superjustinbros. (talk) 20:12, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Brandy running joke
It says that Leah was referred to as Brandy several times as a running joke. I can only think of this happening once, at the point where Ozzy goes to the police station after popping Frank's zit. Where else did this happen? 199.126.137.209 09:49, 2 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Maybe he was referring to an in-joke between the writers and animators? Talk User:Fissionfox 08:54, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

PG-13
How was this originally rated PG-13?

Many scenes were gory and much more detailed, like the fight on the eyelash Chandagnac (talk) 21:28, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Shouldn't that be in the article? Also, can I see it uncut? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Earthisourplanet (talk • contribs) 20:08, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I dont think you can see it uncut. Seeing how it was an animated kids film I dont think it would be very interesting anyway.Millertime246 (talk) 20:12, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

Movie
Is this film any good?I mean generally just for watching, what is the average opinion? Talk User:Fissionfox 08:53, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, but that sort of question doesn't really belong here. Dinea 18:06, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
 * The Onion recently rated it "fun for the whole family", but they were probably joking. GreenReaper (talk) 11:42, 12 September 2021 (UTC)

cartoon?
Wasn't there a cartoon made about the movie that aired on cartoon network for a while? I clearly remember it. 72.84.21.122 (talk) 13:39, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
 * In the first paragraph in the page it even mentions the TV show, Ozzy & Drix. "A Saturday morning cartoon spinoff, Ozzy & Drix, aired on Kids WB from 2002 to 2004, and featured Osmosis Jones and his friend Drix inside a new body.", so please (Not to sound offensive), read the text properly next time.

Pop culture references
Please add references to "Titanic" and "Terminator". Dalka (talk) 13:22, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism
To the user who keeps adding things to this page that doesn't happen, please stop it. 110.174.23.183 (talk) 12:24, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

What does this sentence mean?
This sentence, at least the end of it, doesn't make sense: "The movie opened at #7 in its first opening weekend at the U.S. box office, accumulating $5,271,248 on its opening week while earning $2,286." What does "while earning $2,286" mean in this context? I cannot make heads or tails of it.

It is located in the Box office section. PokeHomsar (talk) 12:53, 22 October 2016 (UTC)

Virus or bacteria
Thrax is short for Anthrax, which is a bacterial disease. So why is the bad guy called a virus? Aminabzz (talk) 01:57, 24 June 2023 (UTC)
