So, at the moment, there's 2 release dates listed for the movie: December 1 in the intro line, and October 21 in the movie infobox. My question is, which is it? Especially since there's been no official date announced (to my knowledge). 110.175.224.75 ( talk) 13:51, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
As of May 3rd, they were still filming on St. Simons Island, GA, and using the historic lighthouse, as well as a mockup, for the shoot.
They have a lot of work to do, if they are going to make a release date of December 20th!

How come no mentions of him narrating the teasers, trailers, and the film as well? He did the first one, it is notable he is in this one as well.
The press release states that "the flavor is a creamy concoction of butterscotch ice cream with ribbons of butterscotch swirl." while Will Ferrell has chimed in by saying "Scotchy, Scotch, Scotch is a delicious ice cream and I hope Ben and Jerry consider my other suggestions," said Ron Burgundy. "Malt liquor marshmallow, well liquor bourbon peanut butter, and cheap white wine sherbet." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.45.110.5 ( talk) 03:49, 23 October 2013 (UTC)
There is no official source that says "Will Smith will have a cameo in the film". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.45.110.5 ( talk) 04:01, 23 October 2013 (UTC)
Fred Willard is seen in the second official trailer at Brick's Funeral.

It should be noted that there was a special teaser to promote the film during the cinema screening of The Day of the Doctor on the 23rd November. 147.197.251.155 ( talk) 15:17, 2 December 2013 (UTC)
The mention of Bismarck in the Marketing section contains a spelling error, wherein Bismarck is erroneously spelled 'Bismark'. Please correct this, as the page is currently under protection.

Here's a source to confirm the cameos from the film. Yes, Will Smith does cameo in the film. I'm going to clean up the page a bit and add those who have cameos only in the film to the "cameo" list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.188.21.128 ( talk) 00:07, 19 December 2013 (UTC)
Why is this? He plays a major role and he's a big name actor! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:304:B162:5CC9:91A9:E20:CA72:BE4D ( talk) 00:54, 22 December 2013 (UTC)
First off I'm disappointed that the article was locked instead of require edits to be reviewed. This knee jerk response to lock down pages is not the open and collaborative idea Wikipedia claims to be.
Secondly please remove the instance of " Tweeted" from the article. That it is wikilinked only further shows what awful unnecessary jargon it is, and more importantly there is zero need to say what specific location McKay _announced_ the news, so long as it is properly referenced, we only care what he said, not where he said it. Only in rare cases (such as conflicting sources) is it necessary for the article text to say in full "The New York Times reports" or "The Hollywood Reporter writes" instead of just including that information in the reference, but far too often Twitter gets tweeted in articles even though it is entirely unnecessary.
Please fix. Here and anywhere else you see the overcomplicated, unnecessary, and inappropriate mentions of Twitter that do not belong. -- 109.78.162.55 ( talk) 04:16, 22 December 2013 (UTC)
Anyone interested in tightening up the prose of the production section would do well to read the article from Huffington Post where Adam McKay explains the difficulty of getting the sequel made. -- 109.78.140.11 ( talk) 16:55, 24 December 2013 (UTC)
Once the credits are officially released, can someone please give the characters who do have names, names? Like Tina Fay as Jill Janson and Amy's character and Wendy Van Peel, Kayne Wests' (he's not J.J. Jackson), even Kristin Dunst's character has a name, something along the lines of (something Alterius?: Maiden of the Clouds, Jim Carrey as Scott Riles, Will Smith as Jeff Bullington.

The Sequel section of the Anchorman article was overly long and an editor rightly cut out a lot of information about the development of Anchoman 2 but not all of it is included here so maybe someone might check it and try and merge it a few items.

In one scene, Ron Burgundy brims over with so much rage that a close-up of his eyeballs reveals a scene from Jean-Claude Van Damme's Bloodsport playing across his pupils (or Kickboxer)? -- IIIraute ( talk) 03:06, 31 January 2014 (UTC)
Hi! Is the shark subplot part of the American theatrical release? It's not included in the German one... -- NoCultureIcons ( talk) 11:29, 1 February 2014 (UTC)

I rounded the gross dollars per MOS:LARGENUM. I had also started a discussion on this at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Film/Archive_52#Rounding_Dollars_in_film_articles_and_Infoboxes if you want to add more opinions on this subject. (The BoxOffice Mojo website also rounds numbers where appropriate and are only estimates). Before deciding to go against an established style, please justify the reason the style does not apply in this case and gain consensus before making the change. I see no need to go against a style since more digits are not needed for a summary and rounding aids readability and aids comparisons. AbramTerger ( talk) 14:34, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
@Koala. I agree MOS:LARGENUM does not explicitly mention grosses. It is a general style. It can not specify the applicability to everything. The implicit assumption is that it the style applies unless it explicitly states it does not, or if there is a reason to ignore the style a consensus can be made to do that. Other than your own personal preference, why do you think the summary needs the information to the dollar? AbramTerger ( talk) 18:40, 25 May 2014 (UTC)
Film articles don't do this, you're attempting to set a new precedent (and others have suggested this before and the best you can say is that it didn't catch on). This article had the detailed figures far longer than it had the rounded figures, Koala15 has precedent on its side of the arguement. Largenum just says how you should round large numbers, not that it is required or even necessarily desirable to so. I'm surprised you to through some much revert warring without a moderator shutting you all down. -- 109.79.101.68 ( talk) 01:04, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
I didn't remove this, because the hidden note rationale is a valid one. However, I'm a bit stumped as to if this needs to be included. Personally, I don't see a reason that a direct sequel written by the same people should have a "Based on" crediting those exact same people. I'm sure there is a guideline about this somewhere that I would be violating if I removed it, but I still think it should be removed. Corvoe (speak to me) 13:11, 24 June 2014 (UTC)
Is there a source for Liam Neeson being in the film? The credits list the actor (History Channel news host) as Micheal Neeson (exact spelling), though I am willing to accept it could be an error on their part -- the character certainly looks older than 18 to me.
