I saw that archive. Well it looked like many users agree that we need a section talking about the misconceptions. Right? And most of the information I put on the section were from the battle of Thermopylae article, which is a cited article. So it's a fact that Persian army is usually exaggerated and that the Persian immortals didn't look like barbaric soldiers.--Arad 23:02, 1 March 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-03-01T23:02:00.000Z","author":"Arad","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Arad-2007-03-01T23:02:00.000Z-Arad-2007-03-01T22:55:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Thanks for your message. Personally I'm against such a section for various reasons. If such a section existed it would be mainly edited by users who care only about their patriotic integrity and not about the film. The article would be turned into a pov-fork of Battle of Thermopylae, edited by people who have most likely never seen the film. The edits we have reverted so far are already a proof of this, they all contained POV and OR, written by people who haven't even seen the film yet. The new section would become huge and the Talk page of the article would be flooded by irrelevant information. In my opinion, as long as the film makers claim an "adaptation", there's no basis to exert criticism on its historical accuracy. Whether the graphic novel article can be subject to such criticism is a whole different story. Furthermore I don't think that 300 can be compared to Apocalypto, Braveheart and other films who have indeed attracted comments on their historical accuracy. This is due to two main factors involved: Firstly the "adaptation" factor, and secondly the "political" factor (Greeks vs Persians, West vs East, USA vs Iran etc). I think that only a small number of critics will make comments on historical accuracy, and I'm of the opinion that they should not be taken into consideration (for the reasons already mentioned). If for some reason the majority of critics focus on the historical aspect, then of course things will be different, but I somehow really doubt that this will happen. In my opinion many people in the media will link theories about USA propaganda against Iran etc. Even if for some reason this was to be included in the article, I still see no reason to have a section about the actual history when there are several other articles dealing with it, already in a polemic and vandal-attractive state. I think the article needs to keep a strictly neutral position and avoid any polemic content, just like the film's creators have. The film is an adaptation of a graphic novel, which in turns deals with the battle of Thermopylae, this is all that needs to be said. Anyone who wants to learn about the graphic novel or the actual story will have the relevant wikilinks in the article's first line.

Frankly, I think that reading current political commentary into 300 is about as dumb as it gets. I read the cited article (endnote #52), and kept sighing at the over-politicization of movies, and kept hoping it was all some sort of grand, practical joke like the over-analysis of the Family Circle comic strip. However it isn't a joke. There are quite simply chuckleheads who will read anything political into a film. What's next? Batman Begins as a platform for gun control? Star Wars as a burning effigy for the lack of Asian-folk in the universe? Brazil acting as a political argument against bureaucracy? (wait, that last one is actually quite apt). There simply must be reviews out here where some bonehead didn't go off the deep end and try to turn a movie review into a quasi-manifesto against the war. I saw it last week here in Chicago at a screening at the IMAX, and I kinda liked it. There is a lot of stuff that only guys will get and appreciate, and some pretty silly dialogue in it. There is a lot of sex and nudity that is probably unnecessary, and I think it will be very popular with the male gay community. What film with muscle-bound men in leather speedos and capes isn't going to be popular? It is a film about a period in western history. It is a mostly ficticious accounting of Sparta's actions in the war with Persia. While quite similar to the comic book (some cinematography was specifically set up to be precisely like the comic), the secondary plotline concerning Leonidas' wife was completely missing in the source material. It is not a movie about east versus west, or islam versus Christianity (the actual war predates all of that). Any clown who suggests such should have their motives severely questioned. It does a disservice to the film.Arcayne 09:28, 8 March 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-03-08T09:28:00.000Z","author":"Arcayne","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Arcayne-2007-03-08T09:28:00.000Z-300_movie","replies":["c-Arcayne-2007-03-08T14:22:00.000Z-Arcayne-2007-03-08T09:28:00.000Z"]}}-->

Frankly, I never saw the modern day correlations in the film. The closest thing it reminded me of were the fight scenes and speeches from Braveheart...if they were filmed by the cinematographer from the Matrix. I could however, see the close relationships to the film that Miller drew as his inspiration from - The 300 Spartans. I went out and rented it after seeing 300. It was pretty tame in comparison but - and this is important - the earlier film was also considered to have been a metaphor for the Cold War, which was going on during the movie. Apparently, sacrifice in the face of insurmountable odds knows no time, place, President or conflict. 300 is an abstract about war Itself, I think.

Ok..... it seems that pretty much everyone hated Katie Holmes in Batman Begins. She even received a Razzie Award for her performance. Her people are obviously trying to simply preserve her reputation by stating that she just didn't want to reprise her role as Rachel in TDK and that she had "scheduling conflicts." Please! Do you really think she'd rather play second fiddle to Queen Latifah in some little B-movie comedy instead of starring in one of the biggest movies of 2008? Warner Brothers is going along with Holmes' reps just to be kind to Holmes. You and I and everyone else knows that she was either not invited back or she quit because she would've been dropped if she had not dropped out. I think it's just misleading to only print this on The Dark Knight film page:

"In January 2007, Holmes had turned down an offer to reprise her role as Rachel Dawes due to scheduling conflicts. The studio is currently seeking a new actress to portray the character."

I actually thought she did a decent job and I really had no qualms with her performance.

I am curious about all this talk about the image you, ThuranX and Bignole apparently agreed to wait for instead of allowing other images to serve the article until then. I am meeting considerable resistance from Big and Thuran about its placement, and I am simply not understanding why, or even if there is a legitimate reason for preventing the image from being placed.

I read your post in the Discussion page. I can understand that you might wish to limit the number of pictures in the article. I am not suggesting we load up the article. Frankly the sideview of Brock's head getting covered with the symbiote is not a very good image, as it doesn't explain production or allow us a good image of either Brock or the symbiote or Venom, and I recommend replacing it with a better view of Venom. It is not a blurry picture, nor is it improperly tagged. It meets the criteria for inclusion according to Wikipedia, and your reasons listed in the article do not seem to represent current WP policy or guidelines, and in fact seem to be supporting a willful agreement between editors to revert any pictures that does not concur with where you have previously determined the article is to go.

Hi Erik. I don't think that saying that it is loosely based on the Battle of Thermopylae is POV, as not that much specific info is known save for that of Herodotus (written long after the fact and likely based on individual accounts and tales gone tall in the retelling by old soldiers and the like). Arad is undoubtedly pushing POV, but even a busted clock is right twice a day. I don't think it is necessarily POV to suggest that a film takes certain liberties with the mundanity of history, and a comic book ever more so.Arcayne 17:12, 9 March 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-03-09T17:12:00.000Z","author":"Arcayne","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Arcayne-2007-03-09T17:12:00.000Z-Wiki-newbie-2007-03-09T16:46:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Erikster, you deleted a comment I left on another user's talk page. It seems like you thought I was re-adding content that had already been there, but that it not the case. Looking at the page history, you can clearly see that that was my first and only edit to Wiki-newbie's talk page. You also seem to be under the impression that it's legitimate to delete things entirely from your own talk page. This is generally incorrect. No user "owns" their talk page--the talk page exists to further to goal of creating an encyclopedia, and in that function it serves as a record just like any other talk page. Other users will many times legitimately want to know another user's past behavior and disputes, etc, for example, when weighing an adminship application. While it's more typical for users to refactor their own talk pages, it's fairly irregular for third-party to delete messages from one user to another on a talk page that isn't their own!

Yeah, I'm basically ignoring that whole "contraversy" thing. If those people want to bicker about it, fine. There are plenty of other films that don't have that problem, and whose pages need major work. I hope you don't go, you're a real asset to this place. I think there are plenty of other ways for you to share your knowledge and skills without having to worry about stuff like 300. I say, if it's going to cause problems, just ignore that aspect of it. There's plenty of help needed in other areas, and if these people want the film to reach even GA status, then they'll have to learn how to cooperate with each other for the betterment of the article.

I completely understand. Sometimes I just sit here editing, and at the same time thinking, "I really need to do something else". Even though I do other things, it seems that even when I'm not on here I still thinking about what others are doing to the articles, how much I'll have to clean up. There are times that I wish I had not discovered this place, but others that I'm glad I did. Good luck on that internship decision, my vote is for Google. I hear their work "environment" is crazily relaxed. If/when you return I look forward to finally seeing the outcome of that Fight Club article. I showed the film to my gf the other night and she was like "that was weird". After watching the commentary, and then re-watching it with her, I couldn't help but laugh harder than I ever did every time I noticed another allusion to the truth behidn the narrator.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 18:23, 14 March 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-03-14T18:23:00.000Z","author":"Bignole","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Bignole-2007-03-14T18:23:00.000Z-Bignole-2007-03-14T18:02:00.000Z","replies":["c-Bignole-2007-03-19T05:00:00.000Z-Bignole-2007-03-14T18:23:00.000Z"]}}-->

Hey Erik, I tend to find that PRODding film articles, and especially film adaptations of popular games, comics and books, tends to result in the article going to AfD anyway, so I just go straight there - I should add that I'm not sure if such deletions can ever be uncontroversial in the way that other articles can be. Anyways, thanks for the heads-up on questionable films, I'll slowly go through that later tonight. I hate it when I get these sudden urges to purge dead movies - it's soooo time consuming, and often difficult to tell what films are really dead.

Please review my edits before you revert. The speculative information I removed after I reverted the edits was my own, not yours. The additional information on 20th Century Fox I added has TWO sources and is written to state this may have been their reaction. Since you (or I) have no secondary information on the reliability of ANY source I see no basis for stating that one is more reliable than another.

Hey, I know you're busy, working on Fight Club and all, but if you get a moment could you venture over to List of Smallville episodes. I've recently reformatted the whole page, and I nominated it for "Featured List" status. I know you don't deal too much in list articles, but it shouldn't take too long to look at (if you manage to get over there).

Sometimes episodes are filmed in one order and then released on television in a different order. The "codes" act as "dates" so to speak. They say what order the episode was filmed in. Generally it's in a linear order, but every so often you'll find one that was filmed later, or earlier. There was one that was filmed way out of order. I think (and I'm just trying to remember) that one was filmed in one season, but not shown until the next season, and when it was shown it was several episodes after that season had started. Yeah, I had the "#" concern as well. I'll change that to be a bit more specific. I was trying to go for the DVD box colors for the borders of each season.

THe scene was filmed at a construction site in the Bahamas which Michael Wilson had seen back in 1977 during the filming of the spy who loved me and it is still abandoned today. It had to double for Madagascar. It took an enormous aamount of effort for them to rig the cranes and to choroegraph the scenes with the parkour techniques and this is a sigificant scene which is discussed in high detail on the dvd analysis. The practise for the scene was all done in studios in Prague until filming moved to Bahamas where they had to move it 200 feet in the air! ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ ^{"I've been expecting you"} 15:41, 25 March 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-03-25T15:41:00.000Z","author":"Ernst Stavro Blofeld","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Ernst_Stavro_Blofeld-2007-03-25T15:41:00.000Z-Casino_Royale","replies":[],"displayName":"\u2666 Sir Blofeld \u2666"}}-->

Oh, what a joy it will be if they are mentioned. The only doenside will be that I won't be able to see a certain editor's face as I add it in, properly cited.

So you saw the caption regarding the laughter/chattering of children and the final Shantih? You might have noted that the disembodied voices weren't referenced in the soundtrack listing, like music would be. The bonus features don't speak to it, mostly addressing the deep doodoo that the world is in (essentially that CoM is a portrait of mankind now), the camera work and the production design. Personally, I find it infuriating that something that actually has substance to the film cannot go into the article about the film. It seems pointlessly anal to disinclude it.

....just not predictable. It's my opinion that when they start the actual production, then it should be made. Before then, most "pre-production" work is just looking for a place to shoot, and doesn't mean that a film even has a budget yet. Even so, look how much 'pre-production" work was done for the 19 years worth of Superman films, and they even paid people to work on stuff. Usually, once a film hits "production" you can usually say, "it's coming out" because studios aren't going to lose money after that. I'm of the opinion that in "pre" state anything can happen. Writing a script doesn't ensure you are going to make a movie, look what just recently happened with Joss Whedon on Wonder Woman. I think all "future films" should hold on being their own article until production starts, because by then you usually have enough information and stability in the film to say that it IS going to come out.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 00:33, 28 March 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-03-28T00:33:00.000Z","author":"Bignole","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Bignole-2007-03-28T00:33:00.000Z-Re:The_future_is_inevitable....","replies":["c-Bignole-2007-03-28T01:38:00.000Z-Bignole-2007-03-28T00:33:00.000Z"]}}-->

It's just like individual television articles. WikiProject TV says don't make them unless they can be supported and aren't just fancruft with large plots, but they also say don't do mass AfDs on them either. I think we should take it one film at a time, but first present a case to WikiProject Films. I think if we can agree on it there, then we can circumvent the passionate, but stubborn editors that film that films like JPIV should have their own article even when they aren't in production, let alone preproduction. I personally don't like the "Cancelled Superman films" page, because there is nothing notable that I probably couldn't sum up into 1 paragraph and place on the Superman Returns page. But, as much as I don't like it, it's a prime example for us to say "look at this article and say 'pre-production = film will be made'". Yeah, the film was made; it only took almost 20 years. As for those two films you listed, I'm only familiar with Logan's Run, but I think that is something that should be on either the novel or the original film's page. I'm thinking the novel, because it's probably like War of the World's where it isn't a remake but a new interpretation of the source material. It seems the other is a novel as well, and I think it could be summed up there too. From what I've seen, people want to include every minute detail that comes along so they can justify the existence of the article. If Movies.com mentions in passing that Singer is not directing the Superman sequel, people want to use that as an excuse to recreate the article, because "there's talk about it currently". Speaking of which, I keep having to delete Superman: The Man of Steel (film) and Superman: The Man of Steel(film) pages. One person didn't put a space in so they could bypass the protections.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 01:38, 28 March 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-03-28T01:38:00.000Z","author":"Bignole","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Bignole-2007-03-28T01:38:00.000Z-Bignole-2007-03-28T00:33:00.000Z","replies":["c-Bignole-2007-03-28T17:20:00.000Z-Bignole-2007-03-28T01:38:00.000Z"]}}-->

Take your time. I have an exam tomorrow that I'm trying to write up an outline for. Wiki is being a bit distracting right now, so I'm going to have to try and tear myself away for some time so that I can write that. I'm not the only one depending on the outline. Also, it's ok to go about it slow. I want to make sure we get all our ducks in a row before we present anything to anyone of authority, or even to a general consensus on WikiProject Films. The articles that are currently in question aren't going anywhere, and all they can do is get more stable information in the future (which isn't a bad thing), and I'd like to be able to have an answer for anything that oppositional people may want to throw there. What do you think about starting a sandbox where we can work on the proposed guidelines for future films?  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 17:20, 28 March 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-03-28T17:20:00.000Z","author":"Bignole","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Bignole-2007-03-28T17:20:00.000Z-Bignole-2007-03-28T01:38:00.000Z","replies":["c-Bignole-2007-03-28T17:37:00.000Z-Bignole-2007-03-28T17:20:00.000Z"]}}-->

Wow. I saw a lot of "per so-n-so" in that AfD. Not much discussion going on there. I didn't even know about the "per nom" rule, that was interesting to see.

I don't know about harrassment. That's something that's really hard to prove on here, it has to be really clear and concise. I have noticed that he's singled me out, he's only rebuttle is "it meets WP:FICT". Other than that he just dismisses any other argument with "that's not true"-type of statements. It seems that recent votes have provided no discussion, just "it's useful" or "per so-n-so". I hope a clear consensus can be reached on here. I don't mind a character list, if it actually has character information and doesn't turn into a "this is how they died" list. I see a character list for these films turning into that. Have some "oh, he does this in the movie, BUT HE DIES BY...."

I saw IGN's two exclusive clips and I'm really impressed. I never minded the whole mass-shifting thing as I adknowledge Transformers as the most technologically advanced race and that it was two-dimensional drawings, but like a grey-and-blue Batman it wouldn't look real on screen. I didn't quite get what you meant by "real" Transformers. Mute Bumblebee and frozen Megatron are big parts of the plot of the film if I think that's what you mean.

That's cool. Just let me know when you are all done, I can't wait to review the entire article in its completed state.

Re: Single frame of nude man at end of fight club. It probably doesnt have major significance as such but I certainly thought it was a fact of interest. It not something you would see in any other movie, so i think it deserves a mention. But hey you put a lot of work into the article by all accounts so ill leave it up to you.

Can we do something with that "greatest film ever made"? I don't think a poll by fans should be a determining factor, I think it should be a poll by respected critics. I mean, we are linking to a page that doesn't even list the film itself.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 14:56, 4 April 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-04-04T14:56:00.000Z","author":"Bignole","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Bignole-2007-04-04T14:56:00.000Z-Alientraveller-2007-03-31T21:09:00.000Z","replies":["c-Bignole-2007-04-04T15:15:00.000Z-Bignole-2007-04-04T14:56:00.000Z"]}}-->

Yeah, I think we'll probably need the semi-prot, but we'll have to wait till it starts. I don't know if we would be able to convince an admin that there "will be" vandalism.

That's a good idea. I say we go ahead and just throw them in a sandbox. I think we can throw in our ideas and examples, you know, get a rough outline, and then fine tune everything when we get a chance. I say, if you come across something in your editing, like how people are currently trying to use the novels as a source, address the issue on the respective talk page, and then go to the sandbox and jot down the topic and how it was handled. I mean, not only is finding Wikipedia policies or guidelines important, but how we explain it to fellow editors (whether new or old) that is just as important. Being able to fully explain something to someone is probably one of the best tools for this proposed guideline. It will only be a matter of time before someone creates that "Metal Men" article, based on that sole source.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 15:46, 4 April 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-04-04T15:46:00.000Z","author":"Bignole","type":"comment","level":5,"id":"c-Bignole-2007-04-04T15:46:00.000Z-Bignole-2007-04-04T15:15:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Well, I got a ton of work to do here....at work, so as soon as I can I'll grab those examples for the books and load them up on the sandbox for the guideline. If you think of something (after your exam, don't want you being distracted from that) then just add it as you go. I think bullets are fine. I'll set up two sections, one for future film guidelines, and one for references to use. Then we can just add bullets till we think we've got a clear view and from there reword, order, format, etc the section to be more of a guideline.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 16:04, 4 April 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-04-04T16:04:00.000Z","author":"Bignole","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Bignole-2007-04-04T16:04:00.000Z-Re:_Fight_Club","replies":[]}}-->

Technically, the article also says "As this essay tries to stimulate people to use sound arguments in deletion discussions, it is important to realize that countering the keep or delete arguments of other people by simply referring them to this essay is not encouraged" which you do in the AfD to Epbr123 ("Comment Please read WP:PERNOM. —Erik"). I'm not saying this to play "gotcha" but just to point out that people don't really like that style of corrections. At worst, pernoming is not bad but just useless (as the admin will just disregard it). So given you're trying to help people phrasing your comment more along the lines of "You might be interested in..." rather than the passive-aggressive "Please read..." might be more useful.

Actually, in the very first paragraph it reads "A Wikipedia conflict of interest is an incompatibility between the purpose of Wikipedia, to produce a neutral encyclopedia, and the aims of individual editors. These include editing for the sake of promoting oneself, other individuals, causes, organizations, companies, or products, as well as suppressing negative information, and criticizing competitors.". I think if you promoting a cause, like trying to make sure that the article on the film 300 shows more of how the film is "racist" than about how it's "fictional", then you have a conflict of interest, and you lack a NPOV.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 19:51, 2 April 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-04-02T19:51:00.000Z","author":"Bignole","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Bignole-2007-04-02T19:51:00.000Z-The_Behnam-2007-04-02T19:50:00.000Z","replies":["c-The_Behnam-2007-04-02T19:58:00.000Z-Bignole-2007-04-02T19:51:00.000Z"]}}-->

I don't know, I haven't read the novelization. I don't want to, because I don't want to ruin the film for myself. The way I see it, if he's in it, and he brings it, then he doesn't have to be in the film all that long. We don't know how long its been since the last film (yet), and he could have had to go into space during that time. The symbiote could have attached itself to the shuttle and upon re-entry it could have broken off well before it got near the southern united states (how this for stretching, lol), and with the miracle of suspension of disbelief, it lands in the woods just below Peter and MJ. As for being right, I agree, it would be all too tempting to do that, but you know we can't. We'd be just as immature as these guys, and we're supposed to be the "good editors". That being said, be aware that it will probably happen to us though, or at least on the talk page itself. We'll get the "i told you he wasn't there, you were wrong".

This is my third and final year. I think they are planning on offering a level 4, but that's to communication disorder majors, and if I do that then I'd lose ASL as my language class and be forced to start from scratch with another one. I wish I could take it though, I thoroughly enjoy it. The sad part is that my professor has been having trouble with my current class, they're averaging 70s on her tests. She even made the last one extremely easy and they barely got a 79 average. But don't think bad about your Wiki-friend, he gets the top grade in the class.

Yes, I knew that, but the article is sitting at B class (and has been for months). I think that it warrants at an improved rating.

Hi, thanks for your interest. However, I want to assure you that I am not WLNB nor have I added any external links to Wikipedia. I believe I have already stated this. Along with being completely upfront about my authorship, a fact that should speak to my honesty and good faith. So, despite what you may or may not have intended, I think it's quite premature and offensive of you to imply that I may be WLNB. If I was the covert spammer you infer, I would have handled things very differently. I simply considered the Prestige link to stand on its own merits as a worthwhile contribution - it seems I should never have bothered. I hope you understand, and will be less hasty to jump to conclusions next time. Actually, perhaps you could go and read the "conflicts of interest" section yourself as you appear to be hasty with your conclusions in this department as well.Thepipesarecalling 13:09, 5 April 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-04-05T13:09:00.000Z","author":"Thepipesarecalling","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Thepipesarecalling-2007-04-05T13:09:00.000Z-Percieved_conflict_of_interest","replies":[]}}-->

Thanks Erik, but to be honest, I'm still a bit bemused by all this.

By objecting to the removal of a web page I authored (information I volunteered from the outset), I appreciate I'm essentially citing myself, but the material was relevant as per the guidelines and I have absolutely no "close connection" to the subject (i.e The Prestige film) -- I don't profit by its rise or fall, in any way, so my neutrality is assured. It may sound terribly conceited of me, but I basically thought if I'd written a quality, relevant contribution than Wikipedia would be pleased to retain it. Still, I do take your points about your experiences with others (and of course, you are right in observing a conflict of interest when it comes to me "mentioning several reasons" why I thought my article should be included -- however, again, I pointed this out myself at the very beginning when saying "I might be a tad biased as I happen to be the author of the review/link". I realise such an admittance doesnt negate a bias existing, but still...)

Anyway, we digress...

If you think my webpage (which has zero third party paid advertising on it) is worthy of analysis I'd be glad for you to present it -- as for me, I think it best if I leave things to the experts. All the best mate.Thepipesarecalling 14:05, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Erik, whilst I still consider that your response on behalf/in defense of your fellow editor was more than a little energetic, I do, given the history, largely agree with your advice that my webpage would now be best suited to a talk page review -- so, instead of throwing in the towel, I may proceed in this direction as The Prestige "themes" section seems incomplete (although who am I to judge).Thepipesarecalling 19:05, 5 April 2007 (UTC)Thepipesarecalling 19:09, 5 April 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-04-05T19:09:00.000Z","author":"Thepipesarecalling","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Thepipesarecalling-2007-04-05T19:09:00.000Z-Thanks_Erik","replies":[]}}-->

It's better than the-numbers, but do they say who they got their info from, or are they just generalizing what they "heard".

Oh no, I wasn't requesting that you make a choice. I just couldn't find if you had. I saw you made some suggestions, like myself, but I couldn't find a "support" or "oppose". I don't think I can give a nod in either direction. I've notice that my concerns generally are getting disregarded both there and on the talk page, and I think a lot of people are rushing the "support" votes based on it just looking good. There were some major additions done to the article, sans any requests or suggestions, and I don't know if some of the older reviewers know about them. I was just curious if you had made a decision to support or oppose the article. But I won't bore you with this, as its Easter Sunday (well, for a little bit longer at least) and you're trying to relax with a nice cold one.

I think it may be best served on his page at the moment, mainly because "early summer" can be anything. Probably, once they have an official start date, it will be better.

Yeah, I think it is a bit more stable than JP IV. I mean, a couple of months is nothing compared to a couple of years. I'm still a little perturbed about that. I say we can leave it. If something happens, and say the production is postponed or pushed back, maybe we will need to redirect it to Singer's page on the grounds that it's stability of production has been called into question. If it becomes more stable again, and they actually start then one could re-add it. But that's only if something occurs between now and the expected date of production.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 16:17, 9 April 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-04-09T16:17:00.000Z","author":"Bignole","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Bignole-2007-04-09T16:17:00.000Z-Bignole-2007-04-09T15:51:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

I think I just realized a kink in using official film MySpace blogs as sources. I don't know if you realized this earlier, but sometimes they delete blogs to make space for new ones. I was trying to gather information for the new Halloween, which I'm trying to clean up in a sandbox, and I realized that a lot of their sources were the official myspace blog, but when I went there, all the information from a certain point back was gone.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 02:30, 10 April 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-04-10T02:30:00.000Z","author":"Bignole","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Bignole-2007-04-10T02:30:00.000Z-MySpace","replies":["c-Bignole-2007-04-10T02:45:00.000Z-Bignole-2007-04-10T02:30:00.000Z"]}}-->

Regardless of whether the quote was repetituous, it didn't come off that way in the article. I'm not sure why you reverted my contribution, as it sheds light on Maguire's thoughts on doing a sequel.

style guidelines kind of help, but not so much for the lead sentence. My argument is generally that you don't incorporate what a film did in the lead sentence, only what the film is. "'X' film is an action/comedy, written by ....." Then you can say, the film won an Academy Award for best whatever. Also, in the style guidelines it says that the second paragraph should include the things like "a brief look at the film's impact: whether critics liked the film or not (and why), whether it was a commercial success or not, and whether any sequels to or remakes of the film were produced." I think what it says about the second paragraph could help your argument, as winning awards is something that shows the more of a film's impact, and less of the "basics" that the first paragraph should have.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 14:00, 13 April 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-04-13T14:00:00.000Z","author":"Bignole","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Bignole-2007-04-13T14:00:00.000Z-JimDunning-2007-04-13T04:45:00.000Z","replies":["c-Bignole-2007-04-13T14:17:00.000Z-Bignole-2007-04-13T14:00:00.000Z"]}}-->

I guess that's fine. The Academy is the award of awards, but you could see find some people who call favortism. I would assume it would be based on how you address any awards in the article. If it was nominated for like 10 Oscars, I don't think listing every one is beneficial, and if it was nominated in several awards ceremonies (e.g. Saturn Awards, BAFTA, Oscar, etc), it may be best to be lest precise in who you pick out of the list.

I don't know who that crazy person was that messaged me. He blanked the Zombie Hallowee article, so I warned him. I guess he just isn't having fun in Wikipedia. I'm glad to hear that you got your club up and running. As for Level 1 and 4, just tell that 4s to take it easy on the 1s. lol. Ask them to go a little slower for them. I know that's kind of hard, I've seen my professor stumble when she had to slow down for some people. I have done the same. When you start thinking about going slower, once you kind of have a grasp of it, it makes it a bit harder and you can mess up more than you would have if you just do it at normal pace. Anyway, I'm really glad to hear that you got your club going. I'm always afraid to go to those types of events, even though I know they would be most beneficial for me, because I'm afraid that I'd mess up horrible, and do too many things wrong that I would just insult someone.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 14:17, 13 April 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-04-13T14:17:00.000Z","author":"Bignole","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Bignole-2007-04-13T14:17:00.000Z-Bignole-2007-04-13T14:00:00.000Z","replies":["c-Bignole-2007-04-13T22:12:00.000Z-Bignole-2007-04-13T14:17:00.000Z"]}}-->

IMDb's last update for Logan's run was November 2006. It's April 2007 now, and they haven't started filming. That alone will take several months. It's highly unlikely the film will be released in 2007, couple that with IMDb not listing any source to verify their info, it doesn't speak well for the article. Even film articles have to meet the general article creation requirements, and you cannot bog down pages with unless banter about "Mr. X has left the project.

It sounds like you've thought about it a lot more than I have; my only involvement in the Knight Rider page was getting the fake poster removed. I think the biggest problem with films that sit around without getting made is our inability to make note of the lack of progress. One of the articles I'm more heavily involved in is Jack Thompson (attorney), and on many occasions law suits of his get press coverage when they are filed, but nothing when they are quietly dismissed; with law suits, though, there are ways to find out from the courts what progress is being made. I suppose films probably have to be considered on a case-by-case basis. Canceled Superman films and Something's Got to Give are certainly examples with enough attention to merit articles, and I imagine if The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (film) hadn't eventually gotten made, there still is enough history to its development to merit an article. (Actually, the current article doesn't mention anything about that; I'll have to work on it this summer.) I guess I feel that once there is enough press coverage, a subject merits discussion somewhere, regardless of the result. If the Knight Rider article had been merged earlier, when there was news breaking, I would have fought to maintain a separate article; on the other hand, once a subject becomes notable it supposedly stays notable forever. *shrug* --Maxamegalon2000 04:31, 15 April 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-04-15T04:31:00.000Z","author":"Maxamegalon2000","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Maxamegalon2000-2007-04-15T04:31:00.000Z-Maxamegalon2000-2007-04-15T04:02:00.000Z","replies":["c-Maxamegalon2000-2007-04-15T05:07:00.000Z-Maxamegalon2000-2007-04-15T04:31:00.000Z"],"displayName":"Maxa"}}-->

Halo and The Hobbit are two that I would say definitely merit articles based solely on the attention and coverage they have received and the scale of their fan bases, with Peter Jackson's relationship with the projects sealing the deal. Also, the activity related to those two projects are probably sufficiently independent of their source materials to make a merge less than ideal, which could distinguish them from the Knight Rider film. I guess the projects that aren't adaptations really don't get enough coverage until they're well underway, and maybe the projects that are adaptations can be adequately mentioned in their main article until they reach that same point. I'm not sure that hard rules on this sort of thing can be made, so I wish you the best of luck wading through them. At the very least it's something to do! --Maxamegalon2000 05:07, 15 April 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-04-15T05:07:00.000Z","author":"Maxamegalon2000","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Maxamegalon2000-2007-04-15T05:07:00.000Z-Maxamegalon2000-2007-04-15T04:31:00.000Z","replies":[],"displayName":"Maxa"}}-->

It was not false information. That's where the movie opened. Number 4. That was a dumb arse decision to reverse and pathetic to call it false.

Superhero castings have almost always been left-field: Christopher Reeve, Michael Keaton, Hugh Jackman, Tobey Maguire, Eric Bana, Christian Bale and now Edward Norton.

Daniel Craig was famous before the Bond gig? Layer cake was fairly low-hype. Not that he didn't do it up well, but my money had always been on Clive Owen, but I guess he's too oldnow. They should have snagged him up during hte BMW Driver series (an excellent cache of mini web-films).

As well, it seems fitting that Downey would be cast as the womanizing drunk, Tony Stark. I mean, the guy is one of the least lovable superheroes in the marvel universe - he beat up Cap! Grr.

Lastly, I am curious as to why Norton (in my opinion one of the best actors of our generation) would take up the role after Bana fled the role. It seems like such a piker role.

All good choices. I managed to see Blair Witch Project before it was relaeased in theaters. As I do a lot of camping, it scared the bejeezus out of me. I was jumping at apartment creakings for days. I also liked Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (film) and Halloween, which I saw at frankly too young an age. I've hated basements ever since. Silent Hill was creepy (apart from the jarring minotaur-type dude with the mallet). I usually can imagine much worse things than any sfx can come up with, so the movies that show the monster behind the curtain don't really do it for me.

I think you mean Empire, as I added Premiere's ranking of Tyler Durden's line about not talking about Fight Club yesterday. It was an A-Z list, of what was then the best (because not all the great movies had excellent DVDs back then, case in point Gone With The Wind), and for a good while they kept updating the list and doing essential DVDs by genre. But not now.

As for comments, I'm not going to type it all out, but oh hang on, I forgot to write in the cite Olly Richards as the author of the page. Anyway, he said it was, "one of the darkest romantic-comedies ever made... and anyone who thought Bonham Carter was just an impressive pair of eyebrows in a corset will be floored by her revelatory performance."

I like the themes section, but parts of it feel a bit choppy (mainly in the character area, where you discuss Marla and the narrator.) It's hard to make suggestions for smoothing, because that could really draw out that section. You may want a spoiler tag on that section, since you reveal that the narrator is Tyler.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 14:21, 29 April 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-04-29T14:21:00.000Z","author":"Bignole","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Bignole-2007-04-29T14:21:00.000Z-Bignole-2007-04-28T20:40:00.000Z","replies":["c-Bignole-2007-04-29T14:52:00.000Z-Bignole-2007-04-29T14:21:00.000Z"]}}-->

Hmm, maybe try being a bit vague about it. You could just say that the narrator doesn't know the truth about who he really is, but that just brings more trouble in that it could ruin the meaning you are going for. It might create more subtle themes that aren't really there (e.g. who is the narrator really? is he just an embodiment of ...) Maybe just keep it in the back of your mind, and leave it for now. I'm sure if it's a problem that it will be addressed in a GAC, FAC, or peer review. Then again, if they go like Casino Royale, then anyone reviewing won't actually read the article, just give it a glance over. ;)  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 14:52, 29 April 2007 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-04-29T14:52:00.000Z","author":"Bignole","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Bignole-2007-04-29T14:52:00.000Z-Bignole-2007-04-29T14:21:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

How do I re-title an article? I am pretty sure there are disambiguation issies, and I don't want to mess that up by changing the title to Highlander (franchise) (still not completely loving that choice, but the article summarizes the films that wouldn't have an article of their own but need to be mentioned bc of continuity....hmm, Highlander Continuity?) The article is utter dreck, and it's nect on my list after I finish Braveheart (of course, Big and Alien should feel free to chip in words of wisdom, too).

Before I answer, when did Thomas Jane appear?

Staying on topic, this was in Variety on 2002-02-28:

• ""As you get older, it becomes less about topping what you've done before and more about the business of telling a unique story," Dykstra told Variety. "You can see that the best received, most acclaimed films are the ones that offer great integration of visual effects and storytelling."

Dykstra's comments to the tabloid echoed what he told fans at WizardWorld last August. "Spider-Man's costume covers his face, so in order to evoke a human response from the audience, his body language has to be amplified," says Dykstra.

The F/X man also discussed the virtual New Your City that the CG Spidey will sometimes inhabit. "We had to get actual shots of the buildings, create texture maps, and light and position the cityscape correctly, and then integrate the shots with final composites of New York City," Dykstra said."

This appeared in Dark Horizons on the same day:

• "Practically every car in the original film elements that were shot were removed and replaced with digital models

Every window in every building in the background contains its own environment shot using a clever but old fashioned fish eye camera technique Despite some claims, there's almost no 100% CG shots in this, more like 95% shots as the filmmakers always wanted to include some real elements to give the film a more grounded and realistic feel. The one thing that Sam Raimi spotted that he used to tell the difference between comparison footage of a real actor and a CG one climbing a wall during the initial tests? The CG guy didn't have a zipper in the back September 11th wise, "Spider-Man" in FX terms was not affected much at all though they did feel the impact of the quick withdrawal of the initial marketing material. About a week ago, "Spider-Man" FX shots came in at 440 with talk of new sequences being added, thus it'll probably end up with a little shy of 500."

It'd be nice, but right now I'm concentrating on the DVD. And there's number two. Whew, there's not a more appropriate occasion to improve this lot. Shame no one did the same for the X-Men last year.

I think I've really grounded everything up with your suggestions, and I've nominated the article for GA. Now I hope for some work on the second film which I preferred.

Oh yeah, I always wondered, could it be undue weight to discuss a few opinions of journalists? I find polls and box office gives far more understanding to a film's reception. For example, I plan to use Titanic's box office chart to show how word-of-mouth spread really.

I think part of the problem is that I did a massive list of everything mentioned on the DVD, a technique I used well on ROTK. But this creates apathy: oh, no rush, everything's on my notepad. Same darn thing happened to Narnia and Gladiator. Still, when the Spideys have GA, and Transformers, and Indiana Jones, and Titanic, and...

Yeah but they don't do it in strictly alphabetical order: example where id (Indonesian) was moved below io (Ido).

If that's way you'd like to run with it, that's cool. I think Valkrye (sp) is a little different as it's hoping to get under production in the next couple months.

3 day restriction? That's news to me. I wasn't aware of a 3 day restriction, I just know that I've seen plenty of first timers making edits on semi-protected pages.
