Apparently fails future film notability guidelines. No prejudice towards recreation when shooting can be shown by reliable sources to have already begun. Girolamo Savonarola (talk) 02:26, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Sources here and here suggest filming has begun or has already been completed. Whether they can be considered reliable is another matter. Horselover Frost (talk) 03:37, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Comment Searches 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 show WP:N per WP:GNG.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 06:09, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
 * DEFINITE KEEP. Found THIS from February 23 2008 saying filming was imminent, and then THIS which shows first day of filming was February 27 2008. Passes WP:NFF with flying colors.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 06:16, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak keep (Updating to Strong Keep based upon additional work now done to the article) ... as there are sources showing that production has begun on this film. Efforts should be made to seek out a newspaper or magazine source as Wikipedia is still stuck in 1999 when it comes to allowing blogs to be used as sources, a policy that badly needs updating for 2008. However one of the sources cited above actually provides photographic evidence that production has begun, so I think this one's fair to keep for now, with no prejudice against renomination should release not occur. 23skidoo (talk) 16:21, 5 September 2008 (UTC) Additional: have updated my "vote" based upon the work cited below. 23skidoo (talk) 22:20, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Update Found enough to show that the film has wrapped. Have thus corrected the article per film MOS, have sourced, cited, tweaked, and expanded. I think what you see now is a marked improvement on what first came to AfD. Fun stuff.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 04:08, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Update added plot, additional cast, more cites, release dates, infobox tweak et al. I think its pretty good now compared to how it started.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 22:09, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
