![]() | This discussion was listed at Wikipedia:Move review on 22 July 2015. The result of the move review was endorsed. |
The result of the move request was: No consensus. After a month of discussion we're no nearer to a decision, though a few things are clear. It appears that as of 2015 "Columbia TriStar Motion Picture Group" no longer exists, and that all of Sony Pictures' movie studies are under an entity known as Sony Pictures Motion Picture Group. It appears that the best solution here will be updating all the relevant articles with the newest information. It seems clear at least that we need an article or subsection for Sony Pictures Motion Picture Group. Cúchullain t/ c 15:47, 6 July 2015 (UTC)

Comment We are going to need a little more to go on than that. Bloomberg Business states "Columbia TriStar Motion Picture Group operates as a subsidiary of Sony Pictures Entertainment." That seems to indicate that regardless of ownership the company is still legally operating as the Columbia TriStar Motion Picture Group. If this has changed recently then the article should be updated with specifics before any rename. Betty Logan ( talk) 21:40, 16 June 2015 (UTC)
- "Sony Pictures Motion Picture Group encompasses Columbia Pictures, TriStar Pictures, Screen Gems, Sony Pictures Animation, Sony Pictures Classics, Sony Pictures Imageworks, Sony Pictures Home Entertainment and Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions in addition to releasing groups, Sony Pictures Releasing and Sony Pictures Releasing International."
Further comment I have been digging around and it seems Sony has undertaken some major restructuring. Columbia Tristar Motion Picture Group existed up to 2014 according to Columbia Journalism Review, and at that point its subsidiaries were Columbia Pictures, Sony Picture Classics and Screen Gems. At some point prior to 2014 it seems that Tristar Pictures was reassigned to Sony Pictures Releasing and Sony Pictures Releasing International. In the last year or so it appears that Sony Pictures Motion Picture Group was formed and all of Sony's film divisions were made subsidiaries of this new group (see Sony divisions); as a part of this restructing it appears that all of the subsidiaries of Colombia Tristar Motion Picture Group were assigned to Sony Pictures Motion Picture Group along with Sony's other film divisions.

It was last year when the group's name was changed. It was still known as the CTMPG in 2013. King Shadeed 01:55, June 19, 2015 (UTC)

More that I have:
If it were STILL known as the "Columbia TriStar Motion Picture Group" as of today, then it would say it on SPE's site. Therefore, it doesn't. It respectfully says "Sony Pictures Motion Picture Group". And I don't misinterpret my sources! King Shadeed 16:23, June 20, 2015 (UTC)
Spshu and Bishonen, I need your help. This IP user keeps vandalizing the article by moving the name "Marvel Studios" alongside with Marvel Entertainment. This user unfortunately failed to realize that both Marvel Studios and Marvel Entertainment are separate entities of the Walt Disney Company. Marvel Studios is a motion picture studio while Marvel Entertainment is an entertainment company.
According to the news articles for 2015 from the Marvel Studios article comes with the following:
Marvel Studios used to be under the Marvel Entertainment umbrella before 2015. The IP user said this in the summary: "Are you even reading my summaries? See the movie credits", but has not provided a proper source for his/her summary. May the both of you PLEASE summarize all of this?? King Shadeed 21:55, May 5, 2017 (UTC)
