The Game (2013 film)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

In accordance with Notability (films), and especially WP:NFF, Wikipedia should not have articles on films in production unless the film meets Notability. There are no reliable, independent sources in this article to indicate notability for this film. The one seemingly independent source - to Michigan Movie Magazine Biz - is an openly avowed "press release". The only sources I've been able to find are self promotion (, for instance) or passing references that do not meet the requirement. After the film is released, if it is notable, an article would be appropriate. Without substantial independent sourcing, it seems it is not now. (Please note that the article has been heavily edited by single purpose accounts with a strong focus on this film and filmmaker. This not in itself a reason I nominate for deletion, but may result in a similar grouping weighing in.) --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:48, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete No assertions no notability, no 3rd-party sources found. Fails WP:NFILMS. The creator account doesn't inspire much confidence, either. § FreeRangeFrog  21:58, 21 November 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete per being somewhat TOO SOON for this topic. While this film may well become notable later, currently it is in pre-production and lacks the level of coverage that might allow it as an exception to WP:NFF. I would be fine with it being returned to its author if he wishes to work on it in the interim... and he can always seek guidance as he does so. Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 20:26, 25 November 2012 (UTC)
