Talk:Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

message: In Britain, a lot of people actually prefer this to Mary Poppins. Dick Van Dyke is much more bearable in this, and it was actually made over here. Dolmance (talk) 22:44, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

message: I have a question. What happened with the picture that was in the plot section and had a caption that read 'Chitty on a night flight...' ???

message: :Image:Chitty3.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 insure 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.

message: I have been bold and removed the reference to the similarity between the title of this film and a song by marilyn manson. i don't think it is relevent. hope that's ok. Bawdekin (talk) 17:25, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  marilyn manson 

message: (Thanks for removing the spurious song.) The two automobiles, rusty & restored, have stuck in my mind as much as 007's DB5. Perhaps someone could add something about them? In the story's plot, the restored one is supposed to be custom; but the English have built wooden sport cars in even modern times. Thanks! Geologist (talk) 16:13, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (film) → Chitty Chitty Bang Bang — I suggest that the 1968 film is now the primary meaning of this term.  Fleming's novel is now rather obscure, and to some extent it was superseded by the novelisation of the film.  The stage musical is fairly well known but still secondary to the film.

text: *Switched to support per Station1. 'Recentism' is the wrong term (which I was clumsily trying to say, without being able to think of a more appropriate term). Sheer weight of pageviews supports the film being the primary article, my misgivings about the earlier work taking a back seat are a distant second to WP's usability.

The book came first. It should be the main article. The movie of the wizard of oz is more famous than the book. And the book still has the main article. See my point?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 166.249.103.9 (talk) 21:49, 6 December 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Movie Trivia? 

message: How do you define this film as a hit? It cost $10 million to make, yet  returned just $7.8 million. Was it a case of "popular, but not popular enough to make a profit?" Was it Number One at the box office? Is it defined as a hit because it became popular on television, like The Wizard of Oz (film), Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, and Goonies?

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I corrected a misuse of the word "mould" and the change was reverted. I defy anyone to prove to me that the correct spelling in this instance is "mould." This should be self-evident, but I welcome any possible erudite defenses of the use of the word "mould" rather than "mold" in this instance: "the part was too close to the Poppins mold."
It is my understanding that British spellings are not preferred on this site even if the subject is a (somewhat) British film (and that is highly debatable but let's not go off on tangents). WorldWarII (talk) 06:08, 16 May 2019 (UTC)
