Re:Gi Joe
Go see a reliable sources has been added before making a revert. --SkyWalker (talk) 12:00, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Hey, According to your latest entry you have added this link. That link shows LatinoReview site. Which is the same site which confirmed Brendan Fraser has Gung Ho and The Rock has Shipwreck. It is confirmed that BF is Gung Ho. Why do you keep reverting?. --SkyWalker (talk) 12:55, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok then IMDB lists Brendan Fraser has Gung Ho?. And what do you mean by "bitching three wheeled motorcycle"?--SkyWalker (talk) 12:59, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Jack Sparrow
Shouldn't we give him the title of protagonist in addition to Anti-Hero? BlackPearl14 Pirate Lord-ess of the Caribbean 23:38, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I see, but that makes this unequal: the Elizabeth Swann article names her protagonist. Just thought I should get your input :) BlackPearl14 Pirate Lord-ess of the Caribbean 16:22, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Good question...perhaps a removal might be in order... BlackPearl14 Pirate Lord-ess of the Caribbean 16:26, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Great. I'll just check to make sure that it's been removed on the Elizabeth Swann and Will Turner pages. Thanks! BlackPearl14 Pirate Lord-ess of the Caribbean 18:50, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

oy! wall-e had his page moved
So Gears of War decided to move the Wall-E page to WALL • E, without checking the archive where the hyphen use (or non-use) had already been discussed with the decision to keep it as - was made. Your assistance in putting it back, assuming you agree that moving it back is the right choice, is appreciated. SpikeJones (talk) 03:27, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Warning of impending violations of Wikipedia's 3RR policy
Please do not engage in Edit warring; in editing The Dark Knight (film), you are verging on violating 3RR. Your edit summaries are not accurate; it is not a copyright violation to link to a reliable third-party published source such as Allocine.fr, which reproduces the text that you cited (initially in a misleading way). Only by examining the text does it become clear that the previous presentation was misleading. A quotation in the citation will solve that problem as well. I'll try to provide it a bit later if I can find the time. See the article's talk page and please use it rather than edit warring for discussions. Edit warring is a violation of Wikipedia editing policies and guidelines. --NYScholar (talk) 21:06, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Jack sparrow
Concerning your revert to Jack Sparrow, I understand what you are doing, but the summary was not specific enough, and a newcomer would likely be very confused by it. In the future, try to be a bit more specific in your edit summaries to avoid confusion.

Best, -- Mizu onna sango15 / 水 女 珊瑚15  21:10, 5 June 2008 (UTC).

Wikiquette alert notice
Hi there. You should be aware of this thread which involves you. At present, I do not see any major civility violations. I would probably advise not to put comments such as "thanks for the edit conflict" in the edit summary, as it can come across as if you are blaming people for something they have no control over. Also, if you are getting edit conflicts, there is a lot of conversation going on and it is possible other people are getting edit conflicts and could be frustrated as well, so it's just an altogether bad time to be cheeky :) --Jaysweet (talk) 13:30, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Heads-up
Just wanted to let you and the others know that I'm obviously not on Wikipedia much these days. I started my internship, and I'm pretty busy with it. Not going to be editing at work, and my current residence does not have a stable Internet setup. We have one modem to which there can only be one laptop connected at a time. I have two roommates, so that's three laptops that have to keep being moved and plugged in. So I can't get comfortable and edit a good deal. One of my roommates will be retrieving a wireless router from home, so hopefully that will permit me to station myself somewhere comfortable. Hope you're all doing well, though! — Erik (talk • contrib) - 01:10, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

The Two "Hulk" films
Do you know how possibly weird that would be if both films were nomianted for GA status on the same day? I have yet to finish this article. I'm getting closer.&mdash;Wildroot (talk) 01:28, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

The Incredible Hulk (film)
User: Tenebrae is reverting the 'Avengers' film and other referenced Sequel content from the "Sequel" section, and is reducing it to a very small length with barely any content or references.--Snowman Guy (talk) 13:28, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Really!? That's quite a thing to say.  I agree with you, my expectations are low considering that I'm not too crazy about the director and the so-called writing issue weirded me out.  I checked www.fomdi.com to see if it's captioned this Friday, but it's not listed yet.  I usually know by Wednesday, but possibly as early as this Tuesday night.  I won't get a chance to see Indiana Jones until DVD, sadly... I missed it in the theaters.  I definitely want to see The Incredible Hulk, The Dark Knight, and Hellboy II (which keeps seducing me with its amazing previews of del Toro's mad brilliance).  Definitely will see WALL-E, too, considering it's packaged for people like me. :)  Do you have any idea how minimal the dialog is?  I saw on the article that there is a speaking role by a human captain. — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 11:29, 17 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I see what you mean now re: the indent. And I have to compliment you on your excellent, EXCELLENT work on this article. These are some of the most best edits I've seen. I've been privileged to work with some great colleagues and editors on the Comics Project, and I hope you'll accept this as a token of appreciation for all you're doing. With thanks, --Tenebrae (talk) 13:46, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

Lord of the Rings
I added a subsection to the Lord of the Rings film trilogy article that referenced three academic works - you instantly deleted it and explained this edit with the word "irrelevant", regardless of the fact that the academic sources I cited were all studies of the film trilogy and its reception, and therefore relevant. Please do not do that again. We can discuss this on the Lord of the Rings film trilogy talk page. Ninj (talk) 19:22, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

Friendly note
It looks like you already have 4 non-vandal reverts to The_Incredible_Hulk_%28film%29. While I agree with your edits, make sure not to get in trouble with 3RR. Gwynand | Talk•Contribs 16:40, 16 June 2008 (UTC)


 * The last revert you just made, I'm not sure on. While it's an important plot note that the Hulk relents, it still appears that Abomination dies. However, I'm not too concerned on that note at the moment... you have to bring these issues to talk, you are in the 7 revert vicinity for today already, and it isn't vandalism reversion.

Replaced your "Blue flower" picture.
I replaced the "blue flower" picture from the Batman Begins article. Hope you don't mind. I used the source from Blu-ray so the picture is more detailed now. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Arman88 (talk • contribs) 01:40, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Marvel Studios
Thanks for your copy-editing! I had copied "Motion pictures" from the Paramount Pictures infobox, but "Film" suffices, too. Of course, the proper dashes don't show up on Microsoft Word. And I knew there had to be an article for something like Marvel Films—there was something in the back of my head going, "There's something you're missing!" Now I know what it was. :) I stopped short of a 2005 NYT article talking about how Marvel Studios will independently finance the film, so I have a ways to go with this.  (I'm using Access World News and implementing major newspaper headlines, but I'm going to try to use business databases and cull headlines from sources like Wall Street Journal.)  Anywhere else you might suggest me looking at?  There's definitely a lot more information related to Marvel Entertainment, but I'm trying to focus on the studio right now.  (And this weekend's film is Get Smart -- BAH! There is a Hulk screening an hour away, so maybe I'll go to that...) — Erik (talk • contrib) - 10:46, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Hey there, I thought I'd explain why I removed the 'uncredited' tag from Norton's screenwriter entry in the infobox. I just thought it too trivial a thing to mention there, as the WGA's decision is mentioned in the article proper, and to tag his contribution that way seemed like an observance of WGA standards that we would usually ignore here. But I bow to your superior experience on this one. All the best, Steve  T • C 08:43, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

AFI thing
Sorry about BttF! Didn't notice you'd already added the AFI note. I'll make sure I check the history next time so I don't step on anyone's toes (though it looks like it's just you and me adding this stuff at the moment). Steve T • C 13:34, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Smallville
Well, unless Tess becomes some hugely popular character that gets written about by numerous critics (which I highly doubt), then I don't think she'll ever warrant a page to herself. As for other shows, at the moment, not really. Maybe if the CW wises up and creates a Green Arrow spin-off, considering how popular the character was in season 6 and the fact that I believe they are testing the waters by making him a series regular to see if audiences can handle a whole season of "Green", then I'll have another show to write about. Other than that..probably not.  BIGNOLE     (Contact me)  14:49, 20 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Yeah, there was rumblings in the fan community that "Tess" was really "Teschmacher". I would actually prefer that that really was the case over the idea that Davis Blume is Doomsday. Right now, I have no anticipation for the eighth season because I completely disagree with the introduction of Doomsday. I'm sorry, but that is clearly a "Superman" type of character. You cannot introduce the only character that has ever succeeded in "killing" Superman, and you don't even have Superman on the show.   BIGNOLE     (Contact me)  15:16, 20 June 2008 (UTC)


 * He's already died and been resurrected on the show, we don't need it again. We certainly don't need "Superman's death" played out on the show when we don't have a Superman to kill. You cannot do that series of comics without two things: Superman and Doomsday. They both go hand-in-hand, and it's a huge mistake introducing this character when you haven't even had the blue tights and red cape flying around.   BIGNOLE     (Contact me)  16:20, 20 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I doubt he'd wearing the suit mid-way through, because Welling has been adament about not doing such a thing on the show. I could see, and I hope for it, that they do it in the series finale (at least in the last couple minutes), but nothing further than that. It's going to be hard to see how this is going to end with Lex seemingly out of the picture entirely. That rather annoyed me. The entire eighth season can suck so long as the series finale itself is fantastic. It should be 2 hours long and packed full of action and references to previous episodes. I would love for a scene where Clark remembers all those times when he promised to do great things, or people reminded him that he would do great things for the world. Some kind of montage where he remembers key moments in his life that have helped guide him.   BIGNOLE     (Contact me)  16:28, 20 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Can always count on Enter Movie to find a way around it and have it prepped and waiting in the wings. LOl   BIGNOLE     (Contact me)  20:25, 25 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I've heard. I've also heard that the tv commercial actually listed October 2 as the start date. I'll hold on to that source though, and see about including it somewhere.   BIGNOLE     (Contact me)  03:20, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Iron Man Movie
Regarding the removal of the citequote tag with the claim "'tis in the cite". I looked at the provided reference article (I assume its ), eyeballed and text-searched it, and did not find the phrase "Director Jon Favreau and star Robert Downey make this smart, high impact superhero movie one that even non-comics fans can enjoy." or any sizeable component thereof.

A litte further digging revealed my problem. I was looking at the reference article provided that covered all the other claims. I should have been looking at the uncited Rotten Tomatoes page for the movie. I will make the appropriate changes to the article. -- saberwyn 12:14, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

Thoughts
I just came to know that Near future in film is nominated for deletion. I was wondering if merging 2009 in film would be a right choice. 2009 is 7 months away until January 2009 arrives this article should be merged till then. What do you think?. --SkyWalker (talk) 18:09, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

Not bad thanks, I think I've done alright. As for a release image... I'd probably go with this one, or if you wanted one with some of the actors in, a crop of this one. Gran2 11:47, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

Evangelion (Live Action) Film
Hello, I noticed your recent change to the page for the proposed Evangelion live action film and wanted to know why you did change it.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
Hi there. I remember that when the first TF movie was in production we had a header at the top of the talk page saying something along the lines of This is for discussing changes to the article only, not for commenting on how much you don't like the robot designs etc. I had a quick search for a similar header template (I realise that the "robot designs" comment must have been a parameter) but couldn't find one. Do you think the Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen article would benefit from such a header, given the number of forum-like comments that have been posted there and, if so, do you remember the name of the template? Cheers, -- JediLofty UserTalk 11:14, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
 * That's the one! Let's hope people actually read it, rather than just thinking Wikipedia is www.shootfortheedit.com or www.donmurphy.net! :-D --  JediLofty UserTalk 12:05, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Re: State of Play
Hi. That's an excellent rewrite of the lead. I was hard-pressed to see what exactly you'd removed at first, as it essentially says the same thing but in about half the words. I'll incorporate it shortly. Thanks again, Steve  T • C 08:02, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for that. I've tweaked and re-tweaked the article so many times that I have no distance from it whatsoever, so it's definitely good to get another pair of eyes on it. Good to know it's on someone else's watchlist too, for when I go on holiday at the end of the month, hint hint (wait, does that count as attempted meatpuppetry? :p ). Cheers, Steve  T • C 14:36, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Hulk/Who
The CGI was okay, it was just so obviously CGI that I couldn't really lose myself in it. It was just a cartoon character interacting with humans, I didn't really feel like he was there. I don't think there was much they could do about it though, so I'm not going to blame the film. Favourite bit... hmm. The Ultimates-inspired fall from the helicopter, perhaps? That was all heroic and cool. I also liked the scene in the cave with the Hulk being all cute and bashful, and the battle on the university lawn. I much preferred the action in Iron Man, not quite sure why. Iron Man was just better, full stop. Yeah, there's some pretty good superhero flicks out this year, especically if Dark Knight delivers. I take it you're not planning on seeing Teeth? :P

As for Doctor Who, the finale looks like the biggest, bestest Who fangasm they could have come up with. :D It's very Avengers-y what with the Earth's (or Britain's, same thing) greatest heroes assembling. I love how they're all heroes that the Doctor is responsible for creating, it's like his reach has spread out and made everyone a better person. My only quibble is Maria and Pete - I want them to appear but they don't seem to be. I'm kind of preparing myself to say goodbye to Doctor Who; even though it's going to continue and I'm going to keep watching, I really think this is the end of the show as I know it if the frequent rumours about Tennant and Davies leaving are true.  Paul    730  20:32, 25 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I love the T-1000. Wasn't he one of the original CGI characters?  I probably like Robert Patrick's performance more than the CGI though.  I think Jurassic Park and Lord of the Rings have amazing CGI even though I'm not a big fan of those films personally.  The JP dinosaurs still hold up brilliantly today.  The swinging scenes in the last two Spidey movies are great as well.
 * Well, I just see "Journey's End" as the finale to a really good run. If the quality stays high after that episode, great, if it doesn't... well, those four seasons kind of stand alone anyway.  Like you said, all the stories of the last four years coming together for a finite ending.  Do you think anyone will die?  I really thought Sylvia was going to die in last weeks episode, I thought that was her hand in the body bag.  Last week's episode was cool, I love alternate timelines and that kind of thing.     Paul    730  21:02, 25 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I don't know about that uncanny valley thing, I've always had a weird crush on Tommy Vercetti and he's hardly realistic. :P That article was interesting though, I think you're right.
 * Isn't Martha set to lead TW next season? I was convinced Donna was going to die, but since she already "died" last week perhaps not?  The TW and SJA characters probably won't die in a show outside their own.  Maybe Rose then?  Although didn't Davies say he would never kill a companion as that would undermine the shows optimism?  It better not be Jackie, that' all I'm saying!!    Paul    730  21:24, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Hmm. Don't Time Lords have some control over what they look like? Didn't some Time Lady from the old series go through a number of choices before settling on her new look? I'm willing to accept any plot twist that keeps Tennant for a few more years. Davros was okay... I'm pretty unfamilar with the character so he doesn't interest me as of yet. You're right about the Daleks having good characterization but I tend to take that for granted to be honest, I'm far more interested in the "human" characters and their personal journey. Donna's fate has me worried, what was that Kaan said about eternal death or something? I'm glad the crossover characters were handled well, I was worried they would be glorified cameos but so far they're being very pretty active in the story.  Paul    730  23:03, 28 June 2008 (UTC)


 * So tell me what you thought of "Journey's End". I was completely blown away, but I've seen quite a negative reaction from fans on the internet (typical) which annoys me slightly.  What more do they want?  I won't spoil anything in case you haven't seen it yet.     Paul    730  00:25, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Surprisingly enough, Mickey was the episode's highlight for me.~ Zythe Talk to me! 16:48, 6 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Where's all this Mickey love come from? :P I like him and all, but his arc pretty much ended with "The Age of Steel", and he's not been very interesting since IMO. I'm sure Torchwood will breate new life into him.  I too loved Rose's closure but I've read online opinions complaining that it's too fan fiction-y, with one person describing FakeDoctor as a "genocidal blow-up doll".  Hmm, I guess you can't please everyone.  I'm so conflicted about Donna... it's such a tragic end to one of my favourite characters.  I'd love an update on her in a few years, see her enjoying life as an ordinary human (as opposed to Rose, Martha, SJ, and Jack, who are all warriors now).     Paul    730  22:17, 6 July 2008 (UTC)


 * I have no problem with the Doctor clone - it puts me in mind of the end to Dan Slott's She-Hulk run. We saw an alt-universe Shulkie end up with gormless love interest Pug, while in Earth-616 the two could never be together (he took a magic potion or something to erase his feelings for her, it sounds wierd but it was brilliant, honest).  It was a really bittersweet ending, because we found we closure we wanted, but the main She-Hulk could move on in other stories like the Tenth Doctor.  Wilf as a companion... no thanks, he was likable enough, but nah.  I'm really interested as to who will be the companion in next year's specials though.  Maybe a different one-off companion in each episode?     Paul    730  22:39, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Friday the 13th
Per WP:NFF the production has to be notable. It isn't, because we know nothing about it. You've created a page that mirrors exactly what's on the franchise page, with the exception of it have an infobox (which does nothing but repeat what the prose already states).  BIGNOLE     (Contact me)  22:22, 25 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Alien, it says it right there on the film notability guideline: "Additionally, films that have already begun shooting, but have not yet been publicly released (theatres or video), should not have their own articles, unless the production itself is notable per notability guidelines." Nothing has been reported about their production except for the shooting and start date, and that was only by the producer's blog.   BIGNOLE     (Contact me)  11:44, 26 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Respecting you, and having the discussion. Not treating the article as if it were mine and having edit wars over this. My big problem is that nothing has changed-with the exception of a few new cast names-with the information that is there since the last time the article actually had a deletion. Brad Fuller's blog gives us just about nill when it comes to information on the film. I have a set visit that I haven't had time to read, but from what I've managed to scan, even that basically just repeats what they've already told people and what we already have. There might be some additional things about the cast, or how they got the rights, but I didn't see anything about the production itself. The film sits on a fine line, because I know they are keeping track of all that they do, but they aren't telling anyone right now. I would probably feel better if we had an official plot description for the film.   BIGNOLE     (Contact me)  11:57, 26 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I knew. I watched a 30 second video of Jared Padalecki running through a cabin and then them pulling out this steel case and opening it up to reveal what the mask actually looked like (a cross between Part 3 and Freddy vs. Jason, which is a good thing). No one did any talking in the video, so you're left going "what's happening...tell us about the mask".   BIGNOLE     (Contact me)  12:17, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

From my long experiance at the wikis I have learned that it is against the rules to delete sections off talk pages. thank youQuinlanfan2 (talk) 15:04, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
 * It the original post has been confirmed by other sites. It is TRUE that magizines and reviewer have already been shown the film. It is not a fake. Rolling Stones has a review, so does rotten tomatoes, and AICN. Thats 3 DIFFERENT sources all backing the other one up.

Im fine with it just being on Two-Faces article. When ther is a more recent version Ill upload it to the other articles. Deal? thanks Quinlanfan2 (talk) 15:09, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
 * If they are fake why are there three different sources backing it up. The warner bros employee, said that the image was concept art but it was almost identical to the one in the movie.

Im not saying that it is relible, but the very fact that three sources backing each other up is the proof. Ive deleted stuff on my talk page and admins got pissed. Im just trying to warn you so what happened to me doesnt happen to you. you said it could go to the two face article.

What is the policy with Wikipedia and requesting for Flickr images to be used? I was looking for some images and found, , , and. What should I do? What do you recommend choosing? I was thinking that a Smith/Theron shot would be good for the Release section, and we should be able to use a screen shot from the film to reflect the damaged Hollywood Boulevard rather than the promotional mock-up. — Erik (talk • contrib) - 18:42, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for explaining... though why can't the last image belong on Commons? It doesn't strike me as a commercial website.  Feel free to educate me, as I haven't really looked at this before.  I just noticed that premiere photos were becoming more of a trend. — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 18:57, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the link. It seems like more effort than it's worth.  I'm not looking forward to the film that much, but I guess I want to see it expanded since I started off with just the development history.  If it's captioned starting this Friday, I'll see it.  (I'll see WALL-E without the captions, too.)  I really want to see Hellboy II and The Dark Knight in the next few weeks, though.  Did you read the IGN review for TDK?  I'm barely suppressing my expectations for the film.  I even had a weird dream last night having the film play out (with mere guessing on my part as filler). I'm sad that I didn't get to see Crystal Skull or Hulk on the big screen, though... my location is not ideal for films, and they aren't really captioned after a few months. — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 19:16, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
 * It's definitely been quite a summer of films! I wish I was in a better place to take advantage of seeing them.  I will drive an hour to see The Dark Knight if I have to...  I'm sure it's quite a viewing in IMAX format.  Nolan's definitely handled Batman well, though I wonder if the ultra-realism makes expansion inflexible.  The scale of The Dark Knight seems so huge that I can't imagine how a third film would follow it.  I don't think I've read Batman: Dark Victory... I'm not sure about them putting up smokescreens, though.  I think that if we see Robin in future films, it would not be a classic Robin look.  The Nightwing identity would have its own origin, just not the independence of the character.  In the MTV article, I agree with Loeb about the father-son dynamics being powerful, but I guess I feel like I've seen the relationship before.  The misbehaving young lad and the stern father figure who withholds visible affection, you know?  I don't know how many more are planned to be made, but a Robin-esque figure could be introduced in the third film, adopted, and only discover Batman's identity at the end of it.  No rushing or anything.  Then by the fourth film, he could be the sidekick.  In the meantime, I'm not sure what could transpire in the third film.  I really wish Nolan didn't think Penguin was workable... it could really just a kingpin (I see Philip Seymour Hoffman in that role) who finally gets the Gotham underworld under control, and Batman would also have to deal with The Riddler, who does a lot of manipulative, but no large-scale, crimes.  What do you think?  Any thoughts rattling in your head about the future of the film(s)? — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 21:16, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Re: Batman Begins
Hey mate, I have begun a discussion at Talk:Batman_Begins. Cheers. Gary King ( talk ) 18:03, 13 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Hey, I hope we can work together on this future FAC. Anyways, I was just stepping through my edits and re-adding edits that did not remove info. Is the removal of content the biggest issue you have with the edits? What about the dates? I didn't actually remove a lot of info; for a lot of the unreliable references, especially those for revenue numbers which can be found at many places, I replaced them with more reliable references. If the content removal is the biggest problem, then perhaps I could revert back to mine then re-add the content that I removed? Thoughts? Cheers. Gary King ( talk ) 18:41, 13 July 2008 (UTC)


 * I have now done this. No info was removed. Please let me know what you think so this doesn't get reverted again. Gary King ( talk ) 19:06, 13 July 2008 (UTC)


 * So I guess overall we're on the same page. I think the Themes section should be removed, though, per this edit. Primarily because half of it is quotes, and if we really are going to have an entire section on Themes, then it should definitely be longer. But I don't think it's a really needed. Gary King ( talk ) 19:14, 13 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Also, I don't know of the message you posted on my talk page was sarcastic or not, but I didn't mean to step on your toes when editing this article. I've just been through one-too-many FACs where the reliability of some of my references were questioned that I figure I'd just get all reliable, unquestionable references before ever submitting an article to FAC again.

 * "Shaving bytes off" is hardly an argument ;) I will accept the second point, though. Gary King ( talk ) 19:25, 13 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Good, glad to hear that. I definitely appreciate your work on film articles! I believe I mentioned this before ;) Anyways, I'd like to remove Themes per my point above. Thoughts? Gary King ( talk ) 19:29, 13 July 2008 (UTC)

Problem with the way you edit/explain yourself
Here it is then for your talk page

I do not appreciate the posts you sometimes places up on the talk pages when addressing someone questions or editing.

Example of what I meen.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull I resently added a peice about the Wilhelm Scream to the page. It was removed. I would like to know the reason why please.Tacoman10 (talk) 20:20, 19 June 2008 (UTC) Because it's not important. Alientraveller (talk) 21:01, 19 June 2008 (UTC))

I think explaining why it is not important is much better then just stating that it isn't.  People make mistakes and it can become frustrating when being attacked by vandals or having an edit war, but I think to sit down and take the time into explaining why you don’t find something right/true/correct rather then implying that your way is the right way makes it allot more easier and enjoyable experience for people to edit.

I do apologise for not placing this on your talk page as I am currently at work and did not realise I was not replying to your talk page. It is not my intention to have a go or have a war with you. Just thought it would be niced to people trying to learn the steps to this big busy place.

The Dark Knight
Disagree with my edits if you must, but I would appreciate it you not resort to namecalling to make your point. Also, if you're so opposed to not mentioning the NYC premiere (which has received tons of media coverage, and is therfore noteworthy), why not remove it in the info sidebar as well, thus obliterating it completely from Wikipedia?Richiekim (talk) 16:59, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Inflation information in Box Office receipts
As you may recall, we were involved in a discussion about inflation adjusted box office receipts. I thought the adjusted numbers were as important or more important than non-inflation adjusted numbers, and you may have disagreed. Anyway it seemed that we came to a compromise to include both as equally important. Anyway, someone deleted the inflation adjusted numbers from Titanic and I accidentally thought it was you, but it was not, so that is why my change comment reads as it does. Since I don't monitor the titanic page as much as you do, I would appreciate it if you could keep an eye on that sentence to prevent other from deleting the inflation unadjusted information. Thanks. Cshay (talk) 15:44, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Watchmen
Aw, man, I wanted more after seeing it! It was a little surreal to see all these elements of Watchmen jump off the panels like that.

Editing film articles that you have not yet seen
I'm curious, does editing film articles that you have not seen yet spoil the fun for you?

Film talk
I actually got to see WALL-E with captions two weekends ago! I liked it very much, although I think I liked Ratatouille better. I agree with some critics that it was tough for the last two acts to follow the first, which was fascinating and private, you know? I did find the condition of the planet to be a bit morbid. I think the captions were useful in following the songs (not critical, but still nice) and following the live-action actor in these videos. I also saw Hancock captioned last weekend (got the article to Good Article status, the first in a long, long time), and I just found out this past hour that The Dark Knight was captioned here after all! I was checking the websites, and they didn't seem to have it. So I had given up hope till next weekend, but my friend in Chicago said there were captioned screenings of TDK there. I figured this meant the studio did have captions to distribute, so I called the theater and found out the theater had them after all! I'm trying to get my roomies up and ready to see this now! :) — Erik (talk • contrib) - 17:31, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I think WALL-E is great in a lot of ways, but I guess the scenes in space just felt so apart from the scenes on Earth. Definitely some interesting social commentary in the humans' portrayal, though.  Let me know if you want me to go digging for any print sources to help with WALL-E.  Also, have you seen the IMDb page for The Dark Knight?  It's the #1 movie of all time, who would've thought!? — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 21:45, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I think I would agree with you about Monsters, Inc. 2. It was a fun little universe that they put together.  I wouldn't mind seeing The Incredibles 2, either, maybe have the younger ones come of age (not going off from the first one's ending). — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 22:24, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

I thought that Ledger was very memorable, but admittedly, all the talk about his performance made me "notice" his acting more than I wanted to. I think that it did help overshadow my expectations for Eckhart's performance, which was really well-done and authentic. There are a ridiculous amount of great moments all around, too... when you see it, look on Bignole's talk page (I responded to him with my spoiler-ish thoughts on the film) to see what I liked in particular. — Erik (talk • contrib) - 15:50, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
 * When do you get to see The Dark Knight, if you haven't already? I wanna know what you think! — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 13:13, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Haha, yes! :) I enjoyed the scope of the second film, but both are definitely great.  I think the Joker was Batman's first "real" challenge.  It was definitely a film to turn over and over again in one's head.  I didn't mind the Hong Kong subplot so much; it showed that there was a world outside Gotham City, and definitely demonstrate the effectiveness of Batman's vigilante reach.  Did you wind up liking Two-Face or the Joker better?  I loved how the filmmakers teased the audience with Two-Face's appearance, cutting away as he turns his head.  Then seeing the full ugliness, whew.  I kind of hope that he doesn't come back, though... the way they wrote him in, I can't picture him as a serial villain from hereon.  I have to agree with the consensus, that the Riddler should be next.  He can find out Batman's identity from Mr. Reese and set up an intricate mind-game to mess around with Wayne/Batman, compelling him to cover his own butt.  Catwoman should be in, too, for new female presence. — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 19:41, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Are you referring to the last film where Two-Face kills Robin's parents? I think that was a unique element in the film series, not found in the comics.  I don't know if it needs to be repeated.  I would not mind Robin being introduced because of the father-son dynamic, but I think he should have the Nightwing-esque appearance.  It would definitely be hard for Nolan to top The Dark Knight thematically... that's why I'm not so sure about the Riddler, who isn't as chaotic as the Joker.  I mean, I'm fine with the Riddler, but he won't garner as much interest.  Two-Face was definitely a great character in the film; I grinned broadly when he first mentioned his coin.  You read my thoughts about the film at Bignole's talk page, right?  I launched into raving praise over there... and you do have a point about the Joker being easy to write.  I think it was probably more controversial to cast the Joker than it was to write him.  As for the next film, I'd be cool with the Riddler because I can't see who else could be a major enough villain.  I don't know about Talia coming in; it seems a little too "full circle" for me, where it would make sense for Catwoman to pop in as part of the Batman-attracts-crazies theme, not to mention Catwoman's ambivalent morality. — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 21:42, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
 * VFXWorld covers the effects of Two-Face's appearance. We have a ton of stuff about every aspect of the film to add to this article. — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 23:57, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

I have this tremendous urge to create The Joker (The Dark Knight) with all the press the specific character has had. Even the LA Times breaks down his performance! What do you think? Is that too drastic? :) — Erik (talk • contrib) - 13:41, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

That lame article reminds me when I first started out on Wikipedia. We need to do something to get this reverted. &mdash;Wildroot (talk) 21:57, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

The Black Pearl
Your contributions to the Black Pearl pages are great. I did some searches as to the history of the Black Pearl Wikipedia page and noticed you were the first one to add that Lord Cutler Beckett ordered the ship to be burned and sunk. Since this info isn't covered in the films, I'd like to know where to find the source of that referential information. Thanks, Nathan 1981 (talk) 17:46, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

Re: X-Men: First Class
I think that in the long run, such a setup would be appropriate. I don't know if it's a fair assessment to make, though before the film even comes out. I petitioned for Road to Perdition to be about the film article since coverage for the source material was demonstrably sparse. Maybe you could find out what coverage this X-Men comic book has from sources like Wizard and Comic Book Resources. If there is a compelling amount of material, it may be best to have a disambiguation page with X-Men: First Class (film) and X-Men: First Class (comic book). By the way, maybe we should put a hatnote at the comic book article to point at the relevant section in the film series article. — Erik (talk • contrib) - 16:57, 30 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Hah, I am actually typing out discussion to initiate at WT:FILM this very moment. — Erik (talk • contrib) - 19:01, 30 July 2008 (UTC)


 * I sort of misunderstood the situation, though... I thought that the only justification was the "his life's mission" bit. No wonder it's so easy to question, being so distant from the intended context!  It seems more appropriate now that I see that context, and its location is better.  Though I imagine with some dedication, a high-quality article would have room for non-free images that don't come from a prologue. This situation does remind me of the image at Jurassic Park (film), though I'm not so sure about these Plot section images... :) — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 19:27, 30 July 2008 (UTC)


 * I look forward to Wolverine, but I'm a little overwhelmed by how many characters they're trying to cram into this film. Schreiber looks well-cast as Sabretooth, though.  I think that a Magneto film would be great; Magneto's concentration camp scene really stood out for me.  We're so used to powers being demonstrated in a contemporary setting, so it would be fascinating to see Magneto get his way through the earlier decades and environments.  I kind of wish, though, that filmmakers could have figured out a way to set up for a mutant universe at large with the first three films.  It feels like what they're doing now is only kinda-sorta fitting, though I imagine comics have tried to do that, anyway. :) — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 19:51, 30 July 2008 (UTC)


 * I would definitely love to see Captain America if they had equal halves of World War II and the contemporary period! I think it would be better than a mere prologue because it could establish the Captain's involvement with 1940s America and its people, then tear him away from it and force readjustment in the new, future world.  Think Red Skull should appear, though?  I've never truly read much about him, and I very vaguely remember his appearance from that lousy Captain America film a while ago. — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 20:00, 30 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Is it really already established? That would be even better, but I never expected a studio to do that.  I guess I need to catch up a little with the potential superhero films!  You and Wildroot have been doing too good of a job.  I haven't read Todd Alcott's blog, but I will take a look at what he has to say.  Also, Peter Sanderson's review sounds worth reading based on his background.  Let me know when it appears! — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 20:32, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Re: Doomsday
It was enjoyable, but not amazing. Worth the rental, though! The DVD had a captioned commentary and captioned featurettes, which made me a happy lad. As you can tell, I've pulled a couple of screenshots from the film and implemented them (no more hottie tatooed survivor). I have random details in the sandbox, but I'm not sure if they really have any kind of place in the article. I was wondering, if you don't plan to see the film, can you read the Plot section and fix any American spellings? I think I'm gonna nominate it for Good Article status. It will be nice to use this as an example of how to implement screenshots. Do you think they fit well? I have two free images in the mix, too, so it seems like a decent balance. — Erik (talk • contrib) - 17:09, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

Edge of Darkness
FYI, since you've been putting together the "Film adaptation" section, filming is reported to start on Edge of Darkness on 18 August. Just search Google News on that date for the typical "filming started today" report and create the article. I suggest using "(2009 film)" in the meantime since it's unfortunately the best rule of thumb (IMDb, sigh) we have in lieu of actual verifiability of when it could come out. — Erik (talk • contrib) - 16:13, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Fallen

 * You seem to have a pretty good grasp on the Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen article.
 * The recent "edit" of "all what is know is the fallen and the decpticons are looking for is something called "the splinter" wich could be a shard of the all spark." you rightly removed...
 * But it got me thinking...
 * We DID see Prime pick up something - ostensibl an Allspark chard - at the end of the battle in movie 1.
 * So just for kicks, I thought I'd ask you what your thoughts on the idea are?
 * I know, this really has no bearing on Wikipedia or anything, but it was of (marginal) interest.
 * Who knows...? Take Care, <small style="font:12px Matura MT Script Capitals">  Vengeance is mine,  saith   the Prime  <small style="font:9px Arial Narrow">21:12, 10 Aug 2008 (UTC)


 * Grimlock would be awesome to see in 3. Blackout was really cool except for only having a scene and a half. Bonecrusher...who? ;-)
 * I think a sort of "prequel" would be great where Grimlock and the dinobots arrived to Earth a million years or so ago and took the form of the largest moving beings, searching for the Allspark, then Shockwave appeared and, well, they all got jacked up. (Pretty much exactly like the Marvel G1 continuity goes... Maybe Ratchet could even find them again!)
 * When I saw the original "piece of Allspark" moment in 1, I figured it was going to turn in to a Creation Matrix of some sort. Time will tell.
 * Take Care, <small style="font:12px Matura MT Script Capitals">  Vengeance is mine,  saith   the Prime  <small style="font:9px Arial Narrow">21:36, 10 Aug 2008 (UTC)


 * You know the one I REALLY liked about the comic series? It didn't have Unicron until the last days. It made a good ending. Energon Cubes and Unicron...two things the animated series really focused on too much.
 * That said, a history would be nice, like a The War Within movie that takes place mostly on Cybertron. Of course, this could even be done as flashbacks, maybe even incorporating Dinobot history!
 * I can't personally think of a "perfect" form for Soundwave. I mean, he's a boombox! Who uses those anymore? And making him an MP3 player would be pathetic. He has to be something widel recognizeable and sound-related. I was thinking some sort of Radar ...thing... but an AWACS aircraft just doesn't strike terror into me, and something like a PATRIOT radar would be ... plodding.
 * Good thing I just don't have to come up with the script!
 * So long as there's no energon cubes, I think I'll be fine.
 * And no more of this pointless dialogue (like when the Autobots "introduced" themselves).
 * Till all are one! <small style="font:12px Matura MT Script Capitals">  Vengeance is mine,  saith   the Prime  <small style="font:9px Arial Narrow">21:51, 10 Aug 2008 (UTC)

Keanu in X-Men
You really can't use that article that way. "Expressed interest" is not notable in of itself, since there's no indication that he followed up on his desire. Think of it this way: him "expressing interest" in playing Wolverine is analogus to him "expressing interest" in eating a roast beef sandwich that day. He would like to do it, but that doesn't mean he bothered to go to the deli and peruse the menu. WesleyDodds (talk) 22:55, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I mean, literally all he says in the article is "I would like play Wolverine". That's all we're given. We can't extrapolate beyond that, so it's useless as reference material. WesleyDodds (talk) 23:02, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Superman
I don't know, it's been 30 years since Donner's film, and even though it's still great today I wouldn't mind a true "reboot". I mean, it doesn't necessarily have to be exactly like Donner's. There doesn't have to be so much time spent before you see Superman. What I want is a better relationship between Clark and Lois. In Superman Returns she didn't even know Clark existed. I was really annoyed by that. I understand, and appreciate, the idea that she is in love with Superman and generally thinks of nothing else...but, there has to be more to her relationship with Clark. There needs to be hints of chemistry and sparks, but something that mabye Lois intentionally hides because she is still in love with Superman. I think create a "real" love triangle between her, Clark, and Superman would be very interesting to watch on film. You could really tackle the psychology behind Clark having to pretend to be this bumbling idiot to disguise his identity as Superman, but at the same time that bumbling idiot works so well that Lois cannot see the man that he truly is. There can be more confliction shown in him as he tries to win Lois' heart without being Superman.  BIGNOLE     (Contact me)  01:01, 23 August 2008 (UTC)


 * He had his moments, but he's no George Lazenby. To me, Lazenby was better than Moore as Bond. I love For Her Majesty's Secret Service. Lazenby, to me, was the first person that actually made Bond seem human. Back to Routh, I have this theory that they believed his acting ability wasn't that good so that's why he doesn't have a lot of dialogue exchange in the movie. I think he did a descent job doing Reeve's "Superman voice", and a horrible job trying to do Reeve's "Clark Kent voice" (since he supposedly went to voice classes so that he could sound like him). The part at the Kent farm, where he's talking to Martha...it was so monotone. I was like, show some real emotion dude. I think he best acting came when Luthor stabbed him with the kryptonite shard and he screamed out in pain, personally. Pain is a hard emotion to act, and he actually did a good job showing it. Then again, what more can you expect from soap opera actors, they really aren't know for their shining jewels of thespians. I really would have preferred they waited a few years and used Tom Welling, He's certainly grown phyiscally into the part - something I felt Routh never, completely, physically fit into. My only problem with using him is that they have yet to establish two identities. Right now, Clark acts very Supermanly, and in order to keep his secret he is going to have to start developing a different persona while around people - something they hopefully explore this coming season.


 * I'd like your opinion on something else as well. I'm looking for an image for the infobox of the Clark Kent article I've created (it's still in my sandbox at the moment). Which of these do you like? 1, 2, 3, 4, or5. If you know of one on the web that's better, please suggest as well.

Temple of Doom
Sorry but I happened to have bought that book. &mdash;Wildroot (talk) 21:36, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Of course you can. Raiders is my favorite but Last Crusade is still a masterpiece. I felt Temple of Doom was actually pretty good. Most fans seem to hate it. TOD was actually my favorite as a child. With Kingdom of the Crystal Skull I was somewhat disappointed. However, I still loved it and enjoyed it. That film could have been a lot better, but at the same time Lucas could have made it worse if he had creative control. I really am curious about this. I grew up on the Indiana Jones films, I never thought a fourth film would actually get made. Let alone a fifth. &mdash;Wildroot (talk) 21:42, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Single film
About this, the TV scheduling stuff was silly (thanks for removing it), but I'm sure Peter Jackson said somewhere that he considers the trilogy to be one whole film. Well, in the sense that it is a single story and not three separate stories (eg. Indiana Jones series is separate stories). In the sense that each film was edited and released as a separate film, then yes, they are three separate films. There is also the history where the number of films proposed at various times varied. Anyway, the wording could be improved, and probably doesn't need to go into the detail it does (a separate article on film series, including the examples given there, would be nice), but it's not that wrong. Can't find a suitable source at the moment though. Carcharoth (talk) 04:29, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

I think it's likely, but I wouldn't put Frankenweenie in its own separate article at the moment. Also, User:97198 will not update Temple of Doom to GA status. All of her suggestions have been completed for hours and she will not respond. It's probably safe for one of us to just update it ourselves. I don't know.

About Alice in Wonderland. Are the creatures going to be motion capture, while Alice will be played by that Aussie actress, or will the entire film be motion capture. Maybe they'll do something like James and the Giant Peach where the first 15 minutes are live action. Still dissatisfied that my favorite filmmakers (Spielberg and Jackson on Tin Tin, Zemeckis on his recent films, Burton with Wonderland) are using that technology. Oh well.&mdash;Wildroot (talk) 18:30, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

Oxford Wikimania 2010 and Wikimedia UK v2.0 Notice
Hi,

As a regularly contributing UK Wikipedian, we were wondering if you wanted to contribute to the Oxford bid to host the 2010 Wikimania conference. Please see here for details of how to get involved, we need all the help we can get if we are to put in a compelling bid.

We are also in the process of forming a new UK Wikimedia chapter to replace the soon to be folded old one. If you are interested in helping shape our plans, showing your support or becoming a future member or board member, please head over to the Wikimedia UK v2.0 page and let us know. We plan on holding an election in the next month to find the initial board, who will oversee the process of founding the company and accepting membership applications. They will then call an AGM to formally elect a new board who after obtaining charitable status will start the fund raising, promotion and active support for the UK Wikimedian community for which the chapter is being founded.

You may also wish to attend the next London meet-up at which both of these issues will be discussed. If you can't attend this meetup, you may want to watch Meetup, for updates on future meets.

We look forward to hearing from you soon, and we send our apologies for this automated intrusion onto your talk page!

They have all sorts of photos, trailers, stills, content related to that movie so I am not sure why you thought the link to the Watchmen page was 'spam'.

The point is, I think its a valid content source for reference and user interest. Please let me know your thoughts and if you checked the site that was referenced before removing the link - Carlo - 18:12, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

Watchmen FAR
Watchmen is currently up at Featured Article Review. I'm writing a brand spankin' new version of the article here. Given you've done a bit of work on the film page, could you handle the section about the film that summarizes the main article? Cover everything from the earliest development to the current lawsuit. Don't bother mentioned the cast; it's an ensemble piece and none of the actors really stand out enough to mention them in this article. Two paragraphs feels like a reasonable length for the section. WesleyDodds (talk) 03:26, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Hey, I'm close to finishing my rewrite of the article. I'm hoping to have it done by Friday. If you can rework the film section by then that's great, but if you can't let me know. WesleyDodds (talk) 06:32, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Movie rights being sold, failed projects, then Snyder, then Alan Moore bitching about Hollywood (Watchmen Babies!!!). I think a straightforward chronoglogical layout is the best approach. Also, feel free to tackle the lead; kind of stuck on that one. WesleyDodds (talk) 09:09, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I think there's three paragraphs there I can turn into one. I'll straighten it all out in the morning. Should we mention the legal battle between Warner Bros. and Fox, or do you think that is not necessary for that article? WesleyDodds (talk) 10:04, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I need to start thinking about what images we need to add. One of my thoughts is a scan of a page, showcasing the grid style and symbols, but I haven't decided which page yet. For the movie, probably best to get a shot with more than one character, but since Snyder's whole thing is making the movie as close as possible to the book, a comparison image would be acceptable if you can get that. WesleyDodds (talk) 22:16, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

After reflecting on the same issue on the Watchmen article, I don't think the second Nite Owl and Silk Spectre characters should be listed as "Nite Owl II" or "Silk Spectre II" in the comic and film article character lists, as these are not their proper names. This is one of those conventions that seems normal to us comic book-readin' folks (I really hated it when Geoff Johns brought Green Lantern II back to replace Green Lantern V), but has no relevance outside of fan circles. The addition of the civilian names next to the secret IDs should be enough to clear up any confusion an unfamiliar reader might have. WesleyDodds (talk) 10:34, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Surprisingly I didn't find anything that talked about the quote, aside from Alan Moore mentioning that Harlan Ellison explained to him where the quote came from. WesleyDodds (talk) 21:46, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

I missed the link you posted a few days ago. Anyway, I'd say the most relevant thing Gibbons says about Veidt is "I think that probably is one of the worst of his sins, that it’s kind of looking down on the rest of humanity, scorning the rest of humanity". That seems like a concise statement about the character. Probably don't need the bits comparing him to Rorscharch. You can work it into the character section how you feel fit. I'm still decompressing a bit after the FAR ended. WesleyDodds (talk) 08:40, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

At peace. I knew that everyone I cared about was all right. I knew it. Time didn't mean anything, nothing had form, but I was still me, you know? And I was warm and I was loved and I was finished. Complete. I don't understand about theology or dimensions, or any of it really. But I think I was in heaven". There are higher beings known as the Powers That Be in Angel, who aid the characters in their mission but no actual "God". Vampire's weaknesses to wood (and more notably, crucifixes and holy water) are never explained in the series, and are probably more to do with pop culture archetypes than theology. Personally, I like the lack of religion in Buffy, because I'm agnostic and if they portrayed Christianity etc as fact it would alienate me a little. Have you read the story where the Fantastic Four go to heaven and meet God? I thought it sounded awful, but actually really enjoyed the metafictional way in which it was done (God appearing as Jack Kirby, lol).  Paul    730  22:12, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I like the portrayal of heaven in that story as well, that of an abstract dimension where reality shifts depending on a person's personal desires and fantasies and nothing you see is really "real", it's just our own perception of something that's far beyond our tiny human understanding.    Paul    730  14:55, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I agree that there can be mutiple canons in a franchise; Halloween has three alternate timelines, which are very different but all enjoyable in their own way. However, I think Friday the 13th (and Nightmare on Elm Street, since it's a shared universe per Freddy vs Jason) is one big timeline.  I just found it funny that Stan Lee thought a Norse God who flew via magic hammer was more believable than an alien who could fly naturally.  It wasn't a complaint at all. :) I'm a Doctor Who fan, if I cared about realistic science my head would explode.     Paul    730  21:15, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Bad science can be funny sometimes, like on DW where it's basically an in-joke by now that the screwdriver can do anything. I know it upsets some people though, "Journey's End" took it to a whole new level.  It depends on the tone of the series as well; I expect better science from Terminator, for example, that I do from Buffy or Doctor Who.     Paul    730  21:32, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Valkyrie poster
Oh yes, I really like the poster. It definitely sells it as the thriller it's supposed to be, something other than an over-serious, talky period piece. There's been a distinct shift in the tone of the Google news alerts I've been getting about the film since Cruise's appearance in Tropic Thunder (and since they brought the release date forward). People seem to be actually looking forward to Valkyrie, rather than for any excuse to bash it. Steve T • C 14:58, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Hello, hope you've been doing well! I'm truly jealous of how you've continued to be so prolific with editing these articles. It is nice to know that they are in such good hands, though! I'm kind of creeping back to Wikipedia partially due to the election wrapping up, but I think I will have my hands off regular article maintenance for the time being. I'm going to focus on community discussions. Just wanted to let you know that if you need me to weigh in about an issue with any particular article, just drop a line on my talk page, and I'll come by. — Erik (talk • contrib) - 21:43, 29 September 2008 (UTC)


 * I am alright with Megatron coming back. I guess it depends on how convincing the resurrection is, since his underwater prison sounds like it would have been inaccessible.  I never followed Transformers religiously, but I liked the Constructicons the best because of how they came together to make one big bot.  It's definitely a busy season for films right now; I really think I'm going to have to narrow my scope if I want to work on any article.  Was thinking about starting a science fiction film task force when/if school ever lets up.  Good call on not buying Casino Royale right away... buying the first edition and the special edition is "double dipping", isn't it?

San Jose Mercury News, "Steve Jobs and Tinseltown", April 21, 2003 mentions: "'Jobs is an amazing strategist; he's been playing Eisner like a harp,' said Jim Hill, Disney insider and Webmaster at Jim Hill Media, a site that tracks the entertainment industry. 'Eisner doesn't want to admit it, but he is a man who is genuinely concerned about what his legacy is going to be.'" Other hits: Here's a worthwhile one... CNNfn, "Outlook for Disney", May 12, 2004... a full-fledged interview with Jim Hill. A few bits: ... Oh, he was also interviewed again with CNNfn on March 3, 2004... "Perspective On Eisner & Future of Disneys". Hold on, it mentions that he was in a critical WSJ article about Mr. Eisner... bingo-- Some quotes...

 * Winston-Salem Journal, "Ian McShane's character in Deadwood was based on a real person", March 5, 2005: "No official release date has been announced yet. But according to Jim Hill Media (www.jimhillmedia.com), a Web site that specializes in news about the Walt Disney Company, a DVD release is being considered for fall of 2006, to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the film... According to the report at Jim Hill Media, Disney is expected to include a documentary on the DVD that puts the film in a historic perspective, and probably will also hire a prominent black entertainer to introduce the film."
 * Republican-American, "This week's column will take a circuitous path, beginning with the reactions to films from the House of Apatow", September 17, 2007: "How do I know? Because Pixar, which made Ratatouille, is in a fight with Disney, which distributed the movie, over why the film wasn't as big a blockbuster as other Pixar-Disney movies like, say, Toy Story (1995) or Finding Nemo (2003). This according to Jim Hill Media, a Web site that follows Disney."
 * Atlanta Journal-Constitution, "Movie mojo", March 25, 2005: "In a recent Internet posting, Disney-obsessed Jim Hill Media reports that sources deep inside Buena Vista Home Entertainment revealed that a special-edition Song of the South DVD would be released in fall 2006."
 * HAFFENREFFER: Tell me a little about whether -- as you've just heard the earnings from the company, again, beating expectations by about 5 cents on a per share basis. From what you've heard, is this enough to take some of the heat off Michael Eisner?
 * HILL: Certainly, Michael Eisner could have use the good news now, so this was welcome. The problem is they're relying on the theme parks right now. And frankly, between what is going on with gas prices as well as concerns about terrorism, the theme park growth right now, it's a paper-thin type thing. All it will take is gas prices creeping a little further north, or to be honest, an orange alert, and attendance will drop in Orlando and Anaheim.
 * HAFFENREFFER: Last question. This one concerning Euro Disney, this one concerning the financial dire straits Euro Disney is in, if it doesn't get supplemental financing some way. They may not be able to meet their financial obligations. What will happen? Is Euro Disney going to be around in a couple years or not?
 * HILL: Oh, certainly. The fact of the matter is Euro Disney continues to make money hand over fist. The problem is the debt. They have $2 billion worth of debt right now. Sadly, what it looks like is going to have to happen is that, unless somebody comes forward before the May 31st deadline, they're going to have to reorganize over there. Maybe the park will close for a couple days, but it will come back stronger without the debt and continue to make, you know, huge, huge money for whoever ends up owning Euro Disney at that point.
 * "In mid-January, self-described "Disney dweeb" Jim Hill was roused from an evening catnap by a surprise caller: Roy E. Disney, asking for Mr. Hill's advice on his effort to get Michael Eisner thrown out as Walt Disney Co.'s chairman and chief executive."
 * "For the past weeks, as they campaign to unseat Mr. Eisner, Mr. Disney and his business partner Stanley Gold have tried to tap into the wonderful world of Disney fanatics. With a hot boardroom battle under way at Disney, jimhillmedia.com had about 1.5 million viewers last week, up threefold from three months ago. 'A little teeny Web site is suddenly drawing porn numbers,' says Mr. Hill with pride."

Re: What next
I dunno. If I actually thought the GAN would help with the prose (which I believe is the only real issue) I'd do it, but usually I just take it straight to FA. That said, I've got another article I'm talking to FAC first, so if you wanted to put it up at GAN and see if it gets reviewed in the meantime that's fine.

I've started pooling sources for The Undiscovered Country, but I'm not sure if I'll work on that next-- I'd have to buy the DVD (yeah, ten bucks is expensive :P) and I also want to get some other stuff moving (Edward Drinker Cope, Myst V) so I don't really know If I'll be able to focus on any one project exclusively. I guess I've entertained the thought of doing a Star Trek films FTC, but I definitely couldn't do that alone.

I'm not disappointed about Neil Marshall not taking on the project... too many have been announced under him for me to really build up hope.  I think I am more following the dude and his films because he's a newcomer and information is easier to put together.  It does make his biographical article pretty sparse, though.

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
Easter egg information is trivial at best. Nearly every DVD has some sort of easter egg as a bonus, and rarely are they important. The same goes for listing each and every extended and/or deleted scene. The information is relevant for a Lord of the Rings Wiki, but certainly not here. It's not important for understanding the main subject of the article. Wikipedia simply isn't the guide to list everything.

Re: G.I. Joe
It sounds like an interesting tidbit, but I don't know if it needs to be in the article. If it is in the final product, then it can be covered in the Plot section. For all we know, that kind of background scene could end up on the cutting room floor. Maybe post the URL on the talk page to keep around... if the film is somehow different, citing that could be a good comparison of the evolution of the character in writing or how the film was ultimately edited. — Erik (talk • contrib) - 17:56, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Star Wars I
Since you're a Raiders maven, I would suspect you are familiar with other Lucas properties, specifically Star Wars. I'm having a "citation" issue with another editor over the question of whether it is clear and unambiguous that there are E.T.-like creatures visible in the Imperial Senate chamber in Phantom Menace. All I want to know is whether it's obvious, or whether it's subject to interpretation. As you are rather stringent on the issue of citations, I consider your opinion on the matter to be worthwhile.

Temple of Doom, remake of Gunga Din
I don't understand this. Are you saying that you didn't know that Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom is a remake of Gunga Din?? Watch the Thuggi segments of Gunga Din and you'll immediately see what relevant is. Hang on to your seat while you do, though: since you somehow never knew about this but appear otherwise knowledgeable about (or at least interested in) the Indiana Jones series to some extent, the shock will be visceral. (Don't see it while standing up, in other words.) This has been written about all over the place from the day Temple of Doom was released (and freely acknowledged by Spielberg and Lucas all along), including Bogdanovich's profile of Cary Grant in Who the Hell's In It and any article of any depth about either Gunga Din or Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, but it's so self-evident when you've  seen both films that a citation for something so generally known and indisputably obvious seems silly, like insisting on a citation for saying that the sky is blue. Interestingly, Frank Sinatra and the Rat Pack also remade it in the early 60s as Sergeants Three, with Dean Martin in the Cary Grant/Harrison Ford role. ---Wastetimer (talk) 21:46, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

More Harrison Ford as Cary Grant
This is general knowledge, anything but a secret. I'm not familiar with the Rinzler book you mentioned but I would imagine that they didn't mention it because they assumed that practically anyone reading their book would already know it. Aside from the movie being a sequel to Raiders of the Lost Ark, it's the single most bedrock fact about Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. --Wastetimer (talk) 22:01, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Amrish Puri as Eduardo Ciannelli
Oh, I see, I misunderstood you all along, and I apologize for that. That's a rather literal-minded take, though. Perhaps I didn't phrase it with quite enough focus, however, I'd have to go back and look at exactly what I wrote. I didn't mean that Puri was cast purely (so to speak) because of his resemblance to Ciannelli, obviously Spielberg would choose someone also capable of acting the difficult role (and Puri was perfect!), but the fact that the two actors play essentially the same part and look practically identical can't be construed as a coincidence, so that observation wouldn't need a corroborating citation, at least in my view: Spielberg and Lucas incontrovertibly cast a lookalike as Mola Ram. I just looked Puri up and was saddened to see that he died three years ago. God, Temple of Doom is such a great movie. Oddly, the latest Indiana Jones movie has all the makings of greatness except that it doesn't feel right, it somehow looks like it was all shot on soundstages, even shots that I suppose couldn't have possibly been. I don't know exactly why. Was it because they tweaked the light and made it feel wrong, or used green screens for everything, or what? The set-ups and the acting are marvelous but it lacks that instant-classic feel as a result of what I'm talking about (although I do like it enormously and realized how good it is on my second viewing). It wouldn't have hurt to have had the Jones character wear his beard a little heavier, either. It's definitely a movie that merits repeat viewings. --Wastetimer (talk) 22:43, 15 October 2008 (UTC) I'm looking at that essay you found now: the guy who wrote it sounds like a bit of a kook, actually, but it is interesting. Maybe the sheer galloping lack of political correctness in these films is part of the reason I like them so much. Spielberg conflated a number of weird practices around the world (the monkey brains as food in Asia; the Chinese custom of eating insects (also a staple in pre-tomato Italy); the ripping out of the hearts, performed upon hapless virgins by the Mayan priests in ancient Mexico with an obsidian knife, who then held up the beating heart exactly as in the film, etc.) but almost every bizarre custom in the movie occurred somewhere at some time on the planet, and it was thrilling to see so much Ripley's Believe-It-Or-Not craziness combined into one film. As for the essay, though, unless I missed it, I don't see a reference to Amrish Puri's casting in the film or his resemblance to Ciannelli, so I don't suppose this article is applicable as a reference in this case. --Wastetimer (talk) 23:36, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Raiders of the Lost Ark and Secret of the Incas
I just had my mind absolutely blown by something I read on the Indiana Jones site as a result of our correspondence, that Raiders of the Lost Ark was so similar to a Charlton Heston film called Secret of the Incas, which the entire crew watched repeatedly before filming Raiders. I went straight to youtube to find three clips (Secret of the Incas I, II, and III) and was absolutely bowled over by what I saw. Heston wears exactly same costume and growth of beard (except the hat brim is happily broader and worn appropriately cocked). A scene I'm looking at now involves a shaft of light in a tomb that was snatched outright for Raiders, and I haven't even seen the third clip yet: I'm almost afraid to look. Heston and the young Ford are so alike in so many ways that I'm stunned, I just never made the connection: everyone focused on Bogart in The Treasure of Sierra Madre when Raiders came out and I always thought that was wrong, the similarity was actually to John Wayne's Republic serials, but Secret of the Incas has dismantled my brain in thirty seconds regarding this topic. If you're unaware of this, go to youtube right now and have a look. See you there. --Wastetimer (talk) 00:20, 16 October 2008 (UTC) Heston's great hat in Secret of the Incas makes Ford's in Raiders of the Lost Ark look like a beanie with a propeller on top in comparison. Plus Heston cocks it. --Wastetimer (talk) 00:43, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

You are correct :)
You are correct, and that's exactly what I said. I wrote:

As of October 2008, Sam Raimi and Tobey Maguire had announced a contract for a fourth and fifth installment of "Spider-Man," starring Maguire. So far there is no confirmation that Kirsten Dunst will reprise her role as Mary Jane Watson. However, the actress has reportedly made recent statements regarding her interest to continue with the series, which were positive. In an interview with MTV's Splashpage, Raimi stated, "I hope she'll be written into it. I couldn't imagine making one without her, and I think she's an important part of the movies."

More Mola Ram
I just bumped across a perfect reference for the similarity between Mola Ram in Temple of Doom and the Guru in Gunga Din. In the website "TheRaider.net," there's an article called "Gunga Doom" in which stills from both movies are placed side by side, including comparative shots of Puri and Ciannelli, along with this paragraph of text: "The actual look of Mola Ram is remarkably similar to the character of the Guru, and understandably so. There is obvious and intentional continuity in the Thuggee leader of Mola Ram when compared to the Guru. Both are captivating, sage-like men with shaven heads and hypnotic eyes, accompanied by almost psychotic smiles. In the Guru’s ceremony, he tells the Thuggee of their common quest to rid the world of their detractors. Later in the film, as Cutter’s hostage, the Guru goes into a monologue in which he waxes poetic about his quest to conquer all India and the world. Mola Ram delivers a very similar speech to Indiana Jones as he tortures him and forces him to drink the Thuggee blood. He speaks of the Thuggee casting down the gods of other religions and turning the world to the Thuggee cult. This torture sequence exists in both films. Cutter and his friends are also taken by the Thuggee and tortured, though not to join the cult, but to divulge the location of the British Army. In both films, the hero is strapped to a post and flogged. The Thuggee also begin torturing the heroes’ friends, and both Cutter and Indy, despite their own pain, protest the beatings of their comrades."   --Wastetimer (talk) 23:02, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Universal Soldier III: A New Beginning
Hey Alien, How is Mars?:). Does this movie exist has it been announced?. I could not find the reliable source should i submit this article for deletion?. Is this a reliable source?. Can you tell me what are sources are reliable when it comes to movies?. --SkyWalker (talk) 11:39, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Yup, I will go ahead and prod it. --SkyWalker (talk) 12:05, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

Heads up, I prod it but it was contested. So i sent it to afd see here.--SkyWalker (talk) 05:35, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

Watchmen updates
I saw what the ending was. I don't know if I like it or not; I was used to the original ending and kind of anticipated the freaky nature of it for the film. The new one does sound as interesting, I guess, but it does make me wonder how much that affects the showdown between Rorschach and Dr. Manhattan. By the way, you updated a new poster image that seems stretched in the infobox; can you re-upload it with 300px as the minimum width? Also, any chance we can move the first teaser poster to the section about Moore and Gibbons? It seems to reflect Gibbons's support for the film. A little weak, but we can remove it later if it's an issue. — Erik (talk • contrib) - 17:02, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Wouldn't this do? — Erik (talk • contrib) - 17:19, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I can run it through GIMP to resize it. I have an interview in a half hour, though, so I can do it in a couple of hours. — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 17:32, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I was going to remove the cn tag that Eupator just added, but I do agree with him about the lack of citation for DVD interspersion, as the relevant section does not mention anything about it. Since you've kept the article up to date, can you fix this for clarification?  I'm about to upload a new image, BTW. — Erik  (talk • contrib) - 20:35, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

ORCI

 * How do you know it's a site for Don murphy. It could have been created by anybody. Just because someone says there person doesn't mean it's them.annoynmous 00:01, 23 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Also I remember what happened to me when I insisted William fichtner was in The Dark Knight and I was told it came from an unreliable source. I'm just asking what makes you certain this is Don Murphy's site.annoynmous 00:05, 23 October 2008 (UTC)


 * I see now that the site does belong to don murphy. I'm sorry I acted hastily. The reason I brought up Fichtner was because even though I was proven right that he was in the movie, at the time I was told it couldn't be included because it came from an unreliable source. I'm just following the standard you guys set.annoynmous 00:12, 23 October 2008 (UTC

Kong - Epic
Was there a discussion in which "Epic" was deemed a controversial term? --FilmFan69 (talk) 00:26, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Quantum of Solace
Who the hell do you think you are? Wikipedia is free to edit by anyone, so how can you 'ban me' for editing a page? I'm editing the page with accurate information on the gunbarrel 'opening' now being at the end of the film. I know this because I've seen it. When it opens on October 31 you'll feel a right diddy. Stop sending me threatening messages because I'm updating a page with relevant information. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fitzochris (talk • contribs) 14:08, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
 * You can't find negative fan reaction to the moving of the gunbarrel? Look harder belfry. Check out commanderbon.net and ajb007.co.uk —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fitzochris (talk • contribs)
 * Well then wait until the film comes out on October 31 and bloody well change it yourself. I was trying to be helpful and instead I get the wiki-police all over me. Unreal. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fitzochris (talk • contribs)

Any chance you can extend a better welcome mat? :-P — Erik (talk • contrib) - 15:36, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Marketing
I've started discussion about marketing at WT:MOSFILM. Since you have been pretty prolific with detailing contemporary films' marketing, can you weigh in at the discussion and see if there is anything that could be added or removed? — Erik (talk • contrib) 20:19, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Quid pro quo. New editor tried to upload a 1,732 by 2,688 pixel image of the new teaser poster, I kid you not. — Erik  (talk • contrib) 05:39, 24 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Quid pro quo?. What is that Spanish?. Btw the template still exist. Should i removed it Erik or Alien?.--SkyWalker (talk) 13:35, 24 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Quid pro quo is the article. :) Alien took care of an image warning on my user talk page, so I returned the favor.  Quid pro quo! — Erik  (talk • contrib) 14:50, 24 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks. I have learned a lot. That is first time iam hearing that word. --SkyWalker (talk) 16:42, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
