Talk:Playmobil: The Movie

Improving Critical reception section
The Critical reception for this article is truly disorganized, it quickly jumps to cite different reviews regarding negative aspects of this film in each paragraph instead of having each paragraph describe a negative aspect of this film (poor worldbuilding, Lego movie comparisons...) and have each one supported by reviews talking about said aspect. Not to mention that it indiscriminately cites various reviewers instead of the publication they're writing for (I didn't know who Yolanda Machado was until I hovered over the reference to find out she was writing for The Wrap)

I look foward to other users to improve this section to make it clearer for the reader to find out why Playmobil was critically panned -Gouleg (Talk • Contribs) 15:15, 9 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Actually, the entirety of the fourth paragraph IS about the worldbuilding issues, and all of the fifth paragraph is about the writing problems. The second paragraph consists of general summaries of most of the reviews, and the first paragraph deals with aggregate scores. The final paragraph is also all about the pros given by the reviewers. The section is already organized. 2604:6000:130E:49B0:702E:A0F6:FFD6:AEB1 (talk) 04:00, 10 December 2019 (UTC)
 * "Not to mention that it indiscriminately cites various reviewers instead of the publication they're writing for..." 1. That's not entirely true, and 2. Who cares? They can find the publication and author names in, oh, I don't know, the REFERENCES list? 2604:6000:130E:49B0:702E:A0F6:FFD6:AEB1 (talk) 04:03, 10 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Overall, you bringing up a non-issue. 2604:6000:130E:49B0:702E:A0F6:FFD6:AEB1 (talk) 04:06, 10 December 2019 (UTC)
 * "make it clearer for the reader to find out why Playmobil was critically panned" It's already clear. It's the READER's fault if they can't figure it out just by reading the section. 2604:6000:130E:49B0:702E:A0F6:FFD6:AEB1 (talk) 04:11, 10 December 2019 (UTC)

WP:FILMGENRE
Genres should be based on reliable sources, not based on "common sense" as one editor suggested. WP:NOTTRUTH

The Wikipedia project film guidelines WP:FILMGENRE recommend identifying "the primary genre or sub-genre" which should be verified. Also keep in mind "Genre classifications should comply with WP:WEIGHT and represent what is specified by a majority of mainstream reliable sources". -- 109.78.201.233 (talk) 06:50, 2 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Just because it has a few musical numbers in it, that does not make it a musical. -- 109.76.132.77 (talk) 21:05, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

Budget $40-75 million
Back in 2020 someone vandalized the budget and no one noticed (until now). Without any explanation, without any new sources, they changed the figure from $40 million to $72 million. According to Deadline.com the budget was ~about~ $40 million. Box Office Mojo is no use and does not offer a budget figure. The Numbers.com put the budget at $75 million. Cartoon Brew also put the budget at $75 million.(2019)(2015)

Infobox film says do not cherry pick. So I have included both figures. -- 109.76.132.77 (talk) 21:02, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
