I added a more enlarged plot summary for this film. Since this films pretty confusing, anyone who can fix up any errors I may have made, or cut out some unimportant factors can be my guest. Andrzejbanas 17:06, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
I thought this article was not only extremely thorough and well-referenced but so interesting. I corrected a couple tiny proofreading-type things. Besides that, the summary could stand to be a tiny bit shorter but I'm not sure how one would explain such a tortuous plot with fewer words than that, so it might be tricky. But I definitely think this deserves GA status. FilmFemme 20:30, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
I do not believe that the cover for the Criterion Collection DVD or the cover for the soundtrack belong in the article. The DVD cover is not only located in a different section from the text about it, the text does not provide any critical commentary about the cover itself, only the contents. This is an important difference to identify for fair use. Cover art needs to be more than just identification -- it needs to be in relation to critical commentary about the art itself. The DVD design for Memento or the Lord of the Rings certainly warranted critical commentary, and providing the cover art would be appropriate in this manner. For this film's DVD cover, though, there is no context about its particular design. The same goes for the soundtrack cover -- it does nothing beyond identifying the product, and not even that. Rather, it identifies the packaging in which the soundtrack is available to be heard, so it is a degree apart from the soundtrack context. I would recommend removing both unless they can be supported by critical commentary about the look/design about each respective cover. — Erik ( talk • contrib) - 18:05, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
Small question indirectly related: is Suzuki's film's name Our Blood Will Not Allow It as in the quote of the critic or Our Blood Will Not Forget, as it states in the template? K a r n a 00:11, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
In this half-paragraph:
The 'Tale of Sorrow...' movie is said to have been made 'ten years later', however the date mentioned directly above is December 24, 1971, so that seems to be the date being compared, not the actual release date of Branded to Kill, which was 10 years before. It seems counterintuitive to me, but I'm not sure if it needs fixing. Anchoress 00:44, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
Urutapu, where are you looking? At WP:MOS-JA#Romanization it specifies revised Hepburn romanization—ōs and ūs only. And I'm not sure where cthi is coming from. Also, what's your stance on the capitalization? Doctor Sunshine talk 07:25, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
The caption for the first picture says one character is asking another to buy some rice for him. But the picture shows the characters surrounded by butterflies. It would be helpful to explain the butterflies in the caption! Cop 663 23:25, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
This is labelled as a "featured article" but it seems not very high quality. Would anyone care to discuss this? JoshuSasori ( talk) 04:11, 6 January 2013 (UTC)
