Soul will be the Pixar's original film to be rated G since WALL-E. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.232.135.12 ( talk) 03:00, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
Soul has yet to be assigned a rating. GlobBETT SPLAT SHERMAN 19:25, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
No sources have yet to call it The Great Before, still calling it the You Seminar. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.47.42.194 ( talk) 19:01, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
Just to clarify, Zendaya's not in this picture, right? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.67.205.203 ( talk) 19:09, 18 March 2020 (UTC)
Anyone know how to properly add a movie poster to a movie's article? The how-to articles of uploading photos is pretty confusing. - Cineplex ( talk) 9:50PM - April 16, 2020
Per WP:TRAILER: "Do not merely identify and describe the content of customary marketing methods such as trailers, TV spots, radio ads, and posters." This means stating that the film has a trailer, and the date the trailer was made available should not be in this article unless it has received some commentary. BOVINEBOY 2008 16:05, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
If the movie delays to 2021 because of the coronavirus, this page will be moved to Soul (2021 film). Ssjhowarthisawesome ( talk) 17:53, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

There are the words "abstract soul counselor in The Great Before" when it was supposed to say "an abstract soul counselor in The Great Before" 76.10.139.234 ( talk) 22:39, 12 September 2020 (UTC)
If this movie is not premiering in theatres in North America and European countries, then that makes it the first Pixar movie not to receive a wide theatrical release, right? But somehow, that keeps getting removed even though it's true. I know it'll be in theatres in countries where Disney+ isn't available, but North America and Europe won't have a theatrical release unless we get a theatrical re-release when a vaccine is available. Do I have that right? -- Cody Fearless-Lee ( talk) - 9:53PM - October 17, 2020 —Preceding undated comment added 01:53, 18 October 2020 (UTC)

Change: That same day, it was announced the film would be the subject of a documentary chronicling Pixar's attempts to finish making the film during the pandemic. No further details were announced as to how and when it will be released.[43]

Without this change and based upon the preceding sentence, it is unclear whether "the film" refers to the SparkShort film, Burrow, or Soul. Epsom Bunbury ( talk) 17:06, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

Soul (2020 film) → Soul (film) – There are only 3 articles mentioned on the disambiguation page. With the upcoming Pixar film being the more notable one. Fan Of Lion King 🦁 ( talk) 00:24, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
I should point out thst there was similar discussion about Another Pixar film back in 2016 see /info/en/?search=Talk:Cars_3#Requested_move_13_November_2016 for that Fan Of Lion King 🦁 ( talk) 00:31, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
Hi - my edit to add Kemp Powers as a co-director to the Infobox for Soul was reverted. I understand this is because the box is for primary director only - I didn’t realise this. Is there a way we could add a co-director field to the Soul Infobox? Or find some other way to include him as co-director in the infobox? I think it’s important that it’s clear he co-directed at a glance. Who would be best to discuss this with? Thanks! SNMSB ( talk) 02:22, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
Thanks, I’ll try over at the Infobox talk page. Looks like Powers is already in the lead text so this is covered. I think there is grounds for his contribution is significant see here SNMSB ( talk) 02:41, 27 December 2020 (UTC)
There’s a redundant ‘with’: In order to portray accurately African-American culture within the film, the filmmakers hired several consultants with whom they worked closely with through the film's development; Rawmindz ( talk) 02:15, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
As he wrote all the songs that are performed, which is a key attribute to this film I believe he should be included. The template is not always stuck to. Samurai Kung fu Cowboy ( talk) 17:30, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
At the end of the summary, someone should probably add in that Terry, the accountant, breaks the fourth wall, by telling us the movie is over.
It's a small scene, but it is no less important the other details of the movie summary 2601:644:8900:A88:5C8C:33E6:7CB1:E7C0 ( talk) 01:35, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
I don't believe we should include reviews from critics who do not appear to have seen the film. Or are trying to distort characters basic inherit essence to fit a narrative. One inexperienced editor continues to add a review that does just this. It assigns a gender and race to the character, 22, that are both inaccurate. This is the crux of their critique. There is a scene in the film where 22 illustrates that it can speak in any human voice. It has no gender, race, or physical form. It is an astral being. Samurai Kung fu Cowboy ( talk) 15:32, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
As a note, I've warned both Samurai Kung fu Cowboy and Got2Hands to cease edit warring. (Sorry if I templated any regulars). But 3RR is long gone so please stop. EvergreenFir (talk) 21:38, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
Jon Batiste wrote the original songs for the soundtrack on Soul and is named as such on the Soul soundtrack. Shouldn't he be added in the infobox under 'music', similar to the request on december 29, 2020? 2A02:A445:6632:1:2E:3246:3A92:76F9 ( talk) 09:02, 2 February 2021 (UTC)

Is this Soul movie an officially licensed americanization of Angel Beats anime? 94.21.160.121 ( talk) 20:51, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
If I sum the values in the gross column on Box Office Mojo, I get closer to $135 million. Can anyone shed light on how the value of $119 million was calculated?
