The lede states the film has attained "cult status" but is this really correct? the only quotes in the current page to support this are the director and producer who are hardly impartial. There are a few pages around the web that make a similar claim but most (if they're not repeating the claim by by Joffe and Jankel) of them seem to actually be connected to the SMB page, a specific fan page that a couple of chancers put together to promote their own fan sequel, or it's just being used as the sort of banal journalistic cliché that gets attached to any film that flops yet turns up its own wikipedia page. 148.197.47.194 ( talk) 15:10, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
How is this controversial? People aren't being shot or put in gulags for saying they liked this movie. MightyArms ( talk) 19:49, 8 April 2020 (UTC)
Is it truly necessary to make mention of edits done by fans of this film?
That Morton Cut is by a fan, not an official representative of the movie.
If we're going to mention fans and give them undue weight why not also mention that "Battle For Dinohatten" cut?
If not we would probably be better to erase the whole subject. Maxcardun ( talk) 9:55, 30 June 2021 (UTC)
The Nerdist, unless I am mistaken in this particular article is linking us to a page IN The Internet Archive, and Unless I am missing some kind of hardware, I myself cannot personally download it, despite the protests of User:NekoKatSun who said in his final revert that he "just did".
If downloading that is still possible I would LOVE to know how. Every channel I've tried put me at a dead end. So apologies I thought I was doing the world a favor. DON'T CALL ME A VANDAL Maxcardun ( talk) 3:50, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
I don't care if it's not exactly the same name. Put the "the" in the wrong part of the name and you can accidentally be referring to the other movie. Serouj2000 ( talk) 05:17, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
In that case, one of them is a movie, the other is a tv series. In this case, BOTH are movies. Serouj2000 ( talk) 17:40, 28 February 2023 (UTC)
I can't find the number for the $38 million figure. (I've checked the newspapers) This source which the article uses [1] doesn't mention the $38 million figure at all. Timur9008 ( talk) 11:12, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
