Talk:The Mosquito Coast (film)/Archive 1

This article needs a proper rewrite.
It reads like a junior high theme paper. Agreed? 68Kustom (talk) 21:48, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, and 'plot summaries' generally summarize the plot, including the actual events and the ending.58.152.80.152 (talk) 07:32, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

I would think there should be at least a small mention that the story had a certain parallel to River Phoenix’s life, presumably coincidental.

URGENT ATTENTION
can't be bothered to log in. dont bother trying though. your ubuntu might stop working.

this is obvious. "the mosqito coast" is NOT as this article claims a "film by Peter Weir". It's a very well known novel by a very well known author. It was made into a film.

it's not the policy of this wiki to put derivative works before primary. especially when the primary work is held in much higher regard than the derivative.

And if the mosquito coast is a place on the planet earth, then that is automatically the primary article and all others are disambiguation. Have a little respect. 78.86.176.22 (talk) 02:25, 24 September 2010 (UTC)

I lived in Belize when they filmed it, more so, i was physically present at most of the sets,, The 2 main ones. One in Ladyville (belize river), which was nice and close to the workshop and the other one on the Sibun river (fat boy), Also i was in town for the "docking" Mostly there was not enough to do for the californians, they were so bored, they shipped some speedboats in to play with, The main intro here is a bit winded, but i think it was a good film anti american or not. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Catweasel (talk • contribs) 19:26, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

Made by Lucasfilm?
I remember a read on the back of the box for this movie (in a blockbuster store once) that it was made my Lucasfilm which was itself (at least then, now by Disney) a subsidiary of Warner Bros. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.233.107.168 (talk) 04:06, 20 December 2015 (UTC)
