Monster Mutt (film)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

So yes, this movie really does exist, and it has national distribution (through Wal-Mart, at least), but I can not find any coverage of this in the usual reliable sources. It has a listing at IBDb, but no critical reviews, and no newslinks. It has a listing at rotten tomatos, but no critical reviews listed. It just seems to not exist, even though it does. I've never been this baffled by the Interwebz before, but here it is. A non-notable, nationally distributed film. Since it has no WP:RS, any facts about it are impossible to WP:V, and it fails WP:GNG. There is apparently a popular monster truck with the same name, so I had to target my searching a bit (I tried "monster mutt" movie and "monster mutt" film), so if I missed something, I'll accept a trout.

 * Delete: I was planning on creating this article some time ago, but I found no significant coverage then and I can't find significant coverage now. Fails WP:NF. SL93 (talk) 01:21, 20 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Changed to keep: Notability now shown. SL93 (talk) 16:28, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment. Don't know that this is enough for notability, but I did find a review on a French site called krinein.com; I'm not familiar with this site, but it does call itself a "magazine".  The French title is Max Le Géant..--Arxiloxos (talk) 01:51, 20 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Add: a few paragraphs of news coverage in a January 2010 article in The Santa Clarita Valley Signal; a Dove Foundation review at ChristianCinema.com; and a review of this film as "Under the Radar DVD of the Week" at a reporter-run blog on The Oklahoman website. --Arxiloxos (talk) 05:11, 20 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep I always appreciate it when User:Arxiloxos does his digging before I come to an AFD, as it makes improving articles (even those with minor notability) much easier. To politely disagree with the nominator and his noting a lack of information on the unreliable source IMDB, the film was sourcable and the article was thus improvable. No, it does not have the extreme notability of Star Wars, but as an independent children's film it might be considered to have just enough [minor] notability for inclusion herein. I'd like to think with its now 12x expansion since nomination for deletion, I've left it in better shape than when it was first authored 9 days ago.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 05:58, 21 April 2012 (UTC)
