Why would that section of the talk be removed and not the novel of talk about two-face? That goes on far longer than the Joker Scar talk (which did relate to the article in discussing and settling why neither story by the Joker was part of the entry) and it [the two-face debate] borders on being a flame war forum itself.
There should be some better balance to what is deleted and what is not. I concede to the deletion already made, I just don't understand why the other tired talk entry is allowed to remain in its entirety, broken into several pieces, and allowed to repeat the same arguments over and over... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Medleystudios72 ( talk • contribs) 20:27, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
Ya know what - I apologize for my response on my talk page. You didn't deserve that. I wasn't trying to violate wp:civil with my original responses, it was my attempt at humor. So when you removed the categories, I figured you knew better and wasn't going to debate you. But for the record, for as long as I remember, everyone I grew up with was under the assumption Jason/Friday the 13th was based in Jersey. Maybe that's just a reflection of my environment. lol -- Endless Dan 21:42, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
I see that you removed the soundtrack image for the Tropic Thunder page. For future reference, I was just curious about which of the criteria the image doesn't meet. The only one I believe that it doesn't meet is that it is similar to the movie poster. However, in many film articles a lot of the soundtracks utilize the similar covers/posters, but is it only acceptable if they are on two different pages? I've always thought separate soundtrack articles weren't really necessary unless there was a significant amount of information to warrant one. In its place, should I then insert another infobox and add the different looking cover for the score? If there was a separate article, I would agree with you in removing the image, but since there isn't I just want to see if there were any other reasons for the removal of the image. I know that we are currently going over the use of film screenshots, but I think the CD covers may be different. Thanks and let me know if you need further clarification on my questions. -- Nehrams2020 ( talk) 01:28, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
The only reason I mentioned TWoP is that you said there was no reception to be found. I could of used this as an example instead and perhaps avoided much debate. If you wish to discuss the merits of TWoP however I will. I agree it is by no means the most professional site, however I do not agree that it is useless. The grading system whilst poor in justifications can be used in context to show how an episode stands up within a season, though I am not saying that you should create every episode and add in a reception section solely based on TWoP. Also I feel that emphasising your judgement using the Wikipedia article is also not a good argument, as the particular article is poorly referenced in the section about shows and recaps and the three alluding to its poor professionalism are not reliable. I also don't really see how judgement can be passed based on the names of reviewers, as just like here they are probably entitled to there WP:Anonymity. In no way do I feel that a couple of sources are reason to create a whole article on each episode, I was just pointing out that I found these quickly and that if you maybe dug deeper there maybe things to find. For example, overall season reviews often mention highlights from the season which allude to particular episodes, and there also other non-google resources to consider that contain a wider range of information, e.g. Nexis, Archives, Allbusiness etc. Rambo's Revenge (talk) 13:29, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Hey, I finally picked up the season 1 and 2 boxsets today. I didn't plan to, but they were half price in the bargain bin - £14.99 each, so I couldn't resist. Then the guy at the checkouts got mixed up and undercharged me by halfing them again, so I got them both for £14.99. Pretty good deal. Anyway, expect to hear my scathing review sometime soon. :P Any eps I should look forward to? Paul 730 16:43, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
This reveals season eight starts on September 18. Alientraveller ( talk) 16:17, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
It feels like she's always talking about her parents. I guess I'm just giving her a hard time because I don't like her, she's such a wet blanket. Such a damsel in distress, and not just in a literal "Help, this mutant is trying to kill me" kind of way. She's nothing like Cordelia except for social status. Cordelia, nasty or not, was always a strong character. When vampires tried to bite her, she bit them back and yelled "See how you like it!" That's a character I'm interested in watching, not some drippy "nice" girl. I haven't seen much stength in Lana so far (except maybe tricking the principal into giving the paper back to Chloe, but even then...) Paul 730 21:08, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
Lol, was that a call for back-up? :P Sorry to leave you debating alone, but it's hard coming up with new arguments when you're basically just repeating yourself to someone who won't listen. Maybe we should ask others to offer their opinion? Like on the WAF talk page or something? This is starting to feel like the Angel episode debate again; fanboyism ruling over encylopedic writing and us spitting into the wind.
On a happier note, I watched "Nicodemus" today and was impressed. It was cool seeing the characters' true colours coming out, how they really felt underneath. I loved Evil Lana's line "For once I'm not scared of life, and no one can handle it because you all prefer the insecure little girl. Well, I'm sick of her and all her talk about her dead parents." Couldn't have said it better myself, love. Evil Lana was pretty cool actually, I'd rather watch her than the normal version. Although her strip tease was just creepy, she's 14/15 for goodness sake. Paul 730 18:06, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
It seems like losing at Lex at this stage damages the momentum they've spent seven years building towards the "Superman" era. I hope they manange to pulls things off though. How would you describe the level of quality across Smallville? Like, I think Buffy improved each year through seasons one to three, suffered some identity problems in four, reached it's peak in season five, then dipped slightly in six and seven (every season is special in it's own way though). I'm not sure a two-hour finale is all that necessary. People claim the Buffy finale was rushed but I think that's unfair because the last quarter of the season was spent building up to the last episode, they feel like one big episode when watched consecutively. Don't expect every loose end to be tied up though; you'll only be disappointed. Buffy and Giles never really reconciled on the show (which actually made for more drama in the comic so it's all good). The Doctor Who finale (well, the finale to Davies' run on the show) also had a couple of loose ends relationship-wise which I doubt will be resolved. So long as it's a good story that stays true to the show's original concept, that's the important part. Paul 730 15:16, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
Charmed lasted a whole season longer than Buffy, but no one could ever say that meant it was a better show! :P ~ Zythe Talk to me! 11:57, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
I just watched "Rosetta" and really liked it. It's the first time Smallville has felt like part of the Superman mythos rather than just some teen sci fi show. Very effective use of the original music, I'm not a big fan of the Superman movies but they've got a great score. Paul 730 03:16, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
Congrats on getting your FT. :) I'm just settling down to watch the last few episodes of Smallville season 3. I liked "Obsession", bunny boilers are always good for a laugh. I do miss the ol' freak-of-the-week episodes. It was cool seeing Eric Summers and John from Desperate Housewives and that other guy again. I haven't found Lex very interesting lately though.

Let's centralize discussion at WT:MOSFILM. It seems appropriate to do so since the style guidelines are undergoing quite a few changes. — Erik ( talk • contrib) - 13:18, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
← Congratulations on your impending graduation! I'm headed into graduate school myself; trying to make sure I transit into it OK. I really have no idea how busy I will be. For the FT, we could do The Descent. I think that anything we come across for this may refer back to Dog Soldiers (calling it a cult classic or reviewing that film's production), where the opposite would not be true. By the way, here's a brief bit about "Exodus" from the Chicago Tribune:
"There's a lot going on," she says. "You've got Clark (Tom Welling) dealing with his father (John Schneider) and his destiny and trying to overcome it. He's trying to continue to be the person he believes himself to be. "So he's got that whole struggle and this huge emotional roller coaster he's on. Then you've got Lex (Michael Rosenbaum) and Helen (Emmanuel Vaugier) and their wedding and their problems." (...) "Lana and Clark are dealing with their issues too," laughs the 20-year-old Kreuk. "She's watching him fall apart, and that's really difficult for her because he never tells [her] what's going on. Their romantic relationship moves forward, but really, there are many issues involved with that."
For "Justice", I found this and this. Nothing for "Reckoning". — Erik ( talk • contrib) - 20:17, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
Hi Bignole. I just got home from vacationing in beautiful southern Maine with my my family. It was great! How are things going with you? Did you watch the Opening Ceremonies for the Olympics in Beijing? I did, and was in complete awe. It was the best opening ceremony for the Olympics I've ever seen! I was so amazed as how all those performers were able to memorize every move. One mistake, and it could ruin the whole show. It was so cool! -- ♥Soccer5525♥ Talk To Me!

Hello, just wanted to say you've done a great job with the Rob Zombie Halloween page. I know that may be very long overdue, but I have it on my Watchlist still, and it has been vandalized a lot lately and you just keep putting it back correctly, good job. Ha ha. The main reason I'm contacting you is because a while back you, myself and an anon had a minor discussion here. I hadn't thought about it at the time, but I have two quandaries. The first, wouldn't the new Halloween be considered a reboot as opposed to remake? Especially seeing as the specific point it makes about remakes and prequels in the reboot article. (Of course, I could be mistaken.) The other thing is, would it still be possible to start that discussion about reimagining/remake. Because as I think about it more and more the term wether used or not (by the industry) seems to be occurring more and more. Such examples could include the new "Friday the 13th" film (although they do not specifically use the term), a possible new "Nightmare on Elm Street" film, the new Halloween, the new Planet of the Apes film, and the several others listed in the section of "reimagining" at the remake article. Just some questions and thoughts. -- H E L LØ Ŧ H E R E 20:24, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
I had a wee DVD splurge today and thought "what the hell, I'll give it a shot". Well, it turns out I did like it, although there were several moments during it where I was just like "oh my god". Seriously, that film is some fucked up shit. Far more so than the original or the remake (which were pretty fucked up themselves). The scene where Leatherface was poking Stretch with the chainsaw and licking his lips really freaked me out. Although I thought their relationship was funny, especially the "Leatherface can't get it up" moment and their "break up". I really like Stretch, it made me kind of sad to see her ripped apart so much but I guess that's what happens. She was a lot more proactive and feisty than Sally. Chop Top was funny but I don't think he lived up to his brilliant introduction. The middle act in the radio station was the best part of the film IMO. Drayton was just annoying as usual, as was the largely useless Lefty. Paul 730 03:24, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

I would like to apologise for my overly aggressive language at WT:FTC. As I said there, I'm a little stressed about that other discussion you're referring to, which is only taking place in the first place due to incivility on the part of another editor.

Hey Bignole, I saw the edit you just made to The Crow (film). I can see your reasoning, but would you object to me reverting to the way I had it? I have recently got the book in question and am hoping to expand and improve the article quite a bit. The book has 109 pages, so I think it will be necessary to have separate notations for each page, as I have seen done on other articles. What do you think? -- Beloved Freak 11:47, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
Hi Bignole, it's EclipseSSD. Just wondering if you were interested in help promote The Texas Chain Saw Massacre to FA-status. If you are, take a look at the FAC page on it and try and help out where possible. Give me a shout if you are interested. -- EclipseSSD ( talk) 16:51, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
Sorry if it appeared that it was personal. It wasn't. All I'm trying to say is that maybe somebody better than me should nominate the article for FA status, because I don't think it'd be a good idea if I just kept on and on, and me thinking I'm right about the article all the time. So, what I'm trying to say is that I'll keep working on the article, and then better judges than me will nominate the article when the article is of a high enough standard. One again, Sorry. -- EclipseSSD ( talk) 19:01, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
I was reverting it back because you kept listing as one of your main reasons that he was deleting stuff, which he wasn't. I removed the OR, but the other changes the anon made improve the flow of the section. Ophois ( talk) 02:37, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
Hey Bignole,
I'm working on a new web site, and wanted to share a first look with you. Our team is searching for some really smart, articulate, and real people to become active contributors as we kick this off. We’ve seen your contributions on on Wikipedia, and are particularly drawn to your tone and attention to detail. You have all the makings of a potential Lunch.com power user, so it would be priceless for us to have your take on how it’s shaping up.

Hi! Good point on that one, I guess I was being too testy on my revies. :) My only compaint is that it's missing a section on casting. Which should be easy to add, unless it's somewhere in the production section like some other film pages. Feel free to get back to me! Andrzejbanas ( talk) 01:01, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
No no, i meant it lacks one! But looking at the article again and style guides through WP:Films I guess it doesn't need one for certain right now. I think for B-articles now it says to have at least 6 well developed sections for the article. I suppose it does now, even though soundtrack is pretty weak. But you've made your point.

Hello, just wanted to say you've done a great job with the Rob Zombie Halloween page. I know that may be very long overdue, but I have it on my Watchlist still, and it has been vandalized a lot lately and you just keep putting it back correctly, good job. Ha ha. The main reason I'm contacting you is because a while back you, myself and an anon had a minor discussion here. I hadn't thought about it at the time, but I have two quandaries. The first, wouldn't the new Halloween be considered a reboot as opposed to remake? Especially seeing as the specific point it makes about remakes and prequels in the reboot article.

Such examples could include the new "Friday the 13th" film (although they do not specifically use the term), a possible new "Nightmare on Elm Street" film, the new Halloween, the new Planet of the Apes film, and the several others listed in the section of "reimagining" at the remake article. Just some questions and thoughts. -- H E L LØ Ŧ H E R E 20:24, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
I had a wee DVD splurge today and thought "what the hell, I'll give it a shot". Well, it turns out I did like it, although there were several moments during it where I was just like "oh my god". Seriously, that film is some fucked up shit. Far more so than the original or the remake (which were pretty fucked up themselves). The scene where Leatherface was poking Stretch with the chainsaw and licking his lips really freaked me out. Although I thought their relationship was funny, especially the "Leatherface can't get it up" moment and their "break up". I really like Stretch, it made me kind of sad to see her ripped apart so much but I guess that's what happens. She was a lot more proactive and feisty than Sally. Chop Top was funny but I don't think he lived up to his brilliant introduction. The middle act in the radio station was the best part of the film IMO. Drayton was just annoying as usual, as was the largely useless Lefty. Paul 730 03:24, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

I would like to apologise for my overly aggressive language at WT:FTC. As I said there, I'm a little stressed about that other discussion you're referring to, which is only taking place in the first place due to incivility on the part of another editor. I would like to encourage you to come back to WT:FTC, and if you have any more questions, I would be happy to answer them in a more courteous manner - rst20xx ( talk) 20:53, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
Hey Bignole, I saw the edit you just made to The Crow (film). I can see your reasoning, but would you object to me reverting to the way I had it? I have recently got the book in question and am hoping to expand and improve the article quite a bit. The book has 109 pages, so I think it will be necessary to have separate notations for each page, as I have seen done on other articles. What do you think? -- Beloved Freak 11:47, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
Hi Bignole, it's EclipseSSD. Just wondering if you were interested in help promote The Texas Chain Saw Massacre to FA-status. If you are, take a look at the FAC page on it and try and help out where possible. Give me a shout if you are interested. -- EclipseSSD ( talk) 16:51, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
Sorry if it appeared that it was personal. It wasn't. All I'm trying to say is that maybe somebody better than me should nominate the article for FA status, because I don't think it'd be a good idea if I just kept on and on, and me thinking I'm right about the article all the time. So, what I'm trying to say is that I'll keep working on the article, and then better judges than me will nominate the article when the article is of a high enough standard. One again, Sorry. -- EclipseSSD ( talk) 19:01, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
I was reverting it back because you kept listing as one of your main reasons that he was deleting stuff, which he wasn't. I removed the OR, but the other changes the anon made improve the flow of the section. Ophois ( talk) 02:37, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
Hey Bignole,
I'm working on a new web site, and wanted to share a first look with you. Our team is searching for some really smart, articulate, and real people to become active contributors as we kick this off. We’ve seen your contributions on on Wikipedia, and are particularly drawn to your tone and attention to detail. You have all the makings of a potential Lunch.com power user, so it would be priceless for us to have your take on how it’s shaping up.
If you're interested in finding out more, please let me know, or e-mail me at angelo AT lunch DOT com. Thanks!

You should submit the asticle for wp:FAC. Nergaal ( talk) 04:22, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
So, what's your opinion of rebooting the film series? I don't feel like sitting through a remake of Donner's film, but if it's like Casino Royale and Hulk where they just recap the backstory while telling its sequel, I won't mind. Alientraveller ( talk) 22:11, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
What the hell was that? Thanks for reverting. Alientraveller ( talk) 08:13, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
Hi! Good point on that one, I guess I was being too testy on my revies. :) My only compaint is that it's missing a section on casting. Which should be easy to add, unless it's somewhere in the production section like some other film pages. Feel free to get back to me! Andrzejbanas ( talk) 01:01, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
No no, i meant it lacks one! But looking at the article again and style guides through WP:Films I guess it doesn't need one for certain right now. I think for B-articles now it says to have at least 6 well developed sections for the article. I suppose it does now, even though soundtrack is pretty weak. But you've made your point. I think it's worth a B class. Good job suckering me into it. ;) I'll re-rate it now. Andrzejbanas ( talk) 01:41, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
Sorry, I didn't see that others had posted the same thing.-- CyberGhostface ( talk) 02:56, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
Autobots rolling in Long Beach California. Got me freakin' pumped. I recall you wanted the Aerialbots in the second film, do you think Jetfire will suffice? Alientraveller ( talk) 09:23, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

Hi, I'm not able to do much towards The Crow (film) at the moment as I'm a bit caught up in real life, moving house and a couple of other things keeping me from it, but hopefully within a week or so I'll get back to it and add some stuff from the book I have and get the whole of the commentary watched/listened to.-- Beloved Freak 21:28, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
