I just added a few wikilinks and fixed a few minor typos. This article doesn't need a whole lot more work to be fairly decent... Hurrmic 01:36, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
There is a questionable addition in the quotes section: "You're just young, dumb, and full of cum!" = Harp
Was that really from the film?
Yes, it was stated early in the film.
No. This quote is wrong. Actual quote: "You're a real blue flame special, aren't you, son? Young, dumb and full of come, I know. What I don't know is how you got assigned here. Guess we must just have ourselves an asshole shortage, huh?"
Come on! Have we no standards? Gees.
You're correct, but when referring to the "body fluid", I believe it's spelled "cum". The "standards" should be to get it correct. You didn't write the line, you're just quoting it. 24.189.35.249 ( talk) 15:51, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
The quotes are poorly written; some words are missing and/or re-arranged by the person who wrote the quotes.
References and inspiration are two separate sections mentioning Hot Fuzz, shouldn't these be merged or something? cyclosarin 05:19, 14 April 2007 (UTC) I tweaked the "Tapping the Source" link. I could not figure out how to do a reference. ronin13 07:40, September 20 2009 (UTC)
Another reference is the bank robbery scene in GTA IV and the last bank robbery in the movie. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.174.4.191 ( talk) 05:03, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
Image:Expresidents.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BetacommandBot ( talk) 21:53, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Is Patrick Swayze to appear in the sequel? His pancreatic cancer would make it very difficult. P Cezanne ( talk) 19:38, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
Besides the cancer (God be with Swayze and his family in this difficult time), how could have Swayze returned on screen as well as off. The final scene was summed up where Bodhi is allowed to have one last adrenaline thrill by surfing the waves of the violent Australian current. Although not shown onscreen, it is strongly implied this led to his death. USN1977 ( talk) 17:57, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
No, I guess no sequel now. RIP patrick -- Spanglej ( talk) 14:54, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
Nothing is mentioned in the article about the distinct homoerotic nature of the relationship between Swayze and Reeves. Watch the film again - it's clear as day. They make a lovely couple and seem to spend a lot of the film gazing hungrily at each other. It must be a cult gay hit, surely. Such a great film. -- Spanglej ( talk) 14:52, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
Sheryl Crow's page says that "Hundreds of Tears" is on this soundtrack but this page does not support that. Amazon.com agrees that its on there and does not mention many of the tracks on this page. The soundtrack it lists is:
1. Nobody Rides For Free - Ratt 2. Over The Edge - L.A. Guns 3. I Will Not Fall - Wire Train 4. I Want You - Concrete Blonde 5. 7 And 7 Is - Liquid Jesus 6. Smoke On The Water - Loudhouse 7. My City - Shark Island 8. Criminal - Public Image Limited 9. So Long Cowboy - Westworld 10. Hundreds Of Tears - Sheryl Crow
These tracks are not listed on Amazon (who may be wrong) but these tracks are listed here:
* Jimi Hendrix – "If 6 Was 9" * School of Fish – "Rose Colored Glasses" * Little Caesar – "Down to the Wire" * Ice-T – "Original Gangster" * Mark Isham – "Foot Chase" 12.162.122.5 ( talk) 19:12, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
I made a legitimate edit with a correct reference, who is the vandal that keeps undoing my addition??? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.163.44.12 ( talk) 20:17, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
JesseRafe has been harassing me constantly since I edited. The entry is part of the legacy of the movie and how it has impacted the culture by being referenced in another high profile Academy Award winning movie. Yet, JesseRafe insists on harassing me and deleting my legitimate addition that is part of the film's legacy.
Someone needs to block JesseRafe from bullying other common users by refusing to answer then using his edit button to harass calling himself an "Editor". Jesse an Editor gets paid to edit, this is a public forum that you do not own nor have the legitimate authority to claim as your own.
Cease and desist your harassment of common users and learn some people skills. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.163.44.12 ( talk) 00:16, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

Willondon is a human being, JesseRafe is a computer incapable of dialogue and being a human being. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.166.178.173 ( talk) 14:36, 8 May 2015 (UTC)
My objection to these edits [1] is that (1) it seems to be original research, and (2) that the connection to Point Break's legacy is weak. My first objection might be confusing because the reference given was to a YouTube clip that indeed shows the events described. The original research part comes when the edit says "to indicate the other drummer was 'inferior' to him as with Bodhi and Johnny when it came to surfing", as well as the assumption of relevance in general. It may seem silly, but to avoid WP:OR, the edits really need to stick with secondary sources that assert what the encyclopedia is reporting. Willondon ( talk) 11:43, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
JesseRafe deemed me "unworthy" and instead of communicating decided to refuse to answer my inquiries and harass me, is this what Wikipedia really wants to represent them? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.166.178.173 ( talk) 14:35, 8 May 2015 (UTC)
Here are the reasons why only a few common users ever take the time to edit. Those with Wiki pages and accounts consider themselves Lords of All, and why Wikipedia isn't taken seriously by professional people. Really? All of this nonsense and harassment just for a one line entry. JesseRafe discourages dialogue and deems who he feels is worthy or unworthy. Sorry chaps, but I will no longer be patronizing Wikipedia in any way, shape or form. Goodbye children.

I have reverted the recent move to Point Break (1991 film). I understand why it was done, and it may well need to once Point Break (2015 film) is released, but for now this article should remain the primary topic. Also, WP:RM is much better in this instance than a bold move that doesn't even attempt to fix all the inbound links. — Xezbeth ( talk) 13:17, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: No move. We have strong consensus against a move at this point. It may be worth revisiting the question once/if the new movie becomes established. Cúchullain t/ c 14:17, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

If a film shares its title with one or more other film topics on Wikipedia, compare all film and non-film topics and determine whether one is the primary topic. If one film is the primary topic, name its article after the film's title without any means of disambiguation. For the other films (or all the films, if none of them are the primary topic), add the year of its first verifiable release (including film festival screenings).At the moment the original film is the the primary topic so it needs no disambiguation. If that changes, then a move might be appropriate, but not now. (I am so sick of remakes. Can't they make originals any more?) -- AussieLegend ( ✉) 15:57, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
