Is Eisman really a misanthrope? I didn't get that from the book. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dougransom (talk • contribs) 16:03, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

He had Asperger's Syndrome, but NOT in his eye! He lost his eye from a childhood disease.

The Big Short → The Big Short (book) – Or The Big Short: Inside the Doomsday Machine. In the light of the film adaptation, I can say that this book may be no longer the primary topic, even when the book is the original topic. Both are related to the real-life housing crisis of mid-2000s. Also, the book (last 90 days) is viewed not as much as the film (last 90 days). The current title should be the base title of a disambiguation page. I don't want to pick the film as the primary topic yet until five years later. George Ho (talk) 23:23, 10 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Support, prefer The Big Short: Inside the Doomsday Machine per WP:NATURAL and agree yes don't remove (film) from the (film). In ictu oculi (talk) 09:08, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Oppose per WP:RECENT. —  Film Fan  15:06, 13 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Oppose for now. This is a WP:TWODABS situation, and it's too soon to tell if the film will become primary over the book. Creating a dab page for two items is generally pointless.--Cúchullain t/ c 18:05, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
