The Adventures of Blackbeard

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Article created by a sock of. However, although sprinkled with more than enough fantasy elements, this article does have a bit more by way of actual truth than the norm. The article asserts that this film project was originally titled The Return of Captain Kidd, which is a film in production (IMDb link); the article even gets the proposed cast correct, although then gets the writers, producers and other details completely wrong and the new title is, per the Alexcas11 style, complete fantasy. However, although IMDb states that the film is in post-production, other sources seem to suggest that it hasn't started filming, for example this article from Screen Daily from 11 November It would seem that this film fails WP:NFF, for the moment, although of course it would more than likely become notable in the future. But failing WP:NFF combined with the obvious hoax elements (including the title (!)) in this article would suggest the best thing would be to delete and then recreate the article when sources become available in a year or two.
