Talk:Colin Farrell

message: Mentioning In Bruges in the context of "high-profile Hollywood films" is incorrect. In Bruges is considered an independent film, hence the reason it premiered at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival. 71.199.123.192 (talk) 16:42, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: In Bruges

message: There seems to be an inordinate amount of time talking about Farrell's sex tape, as opposed to his other work, which in my view is more important. What can we do to sort this out? I don't want to censor the article, incidently. I just don't think Farrell's entire existence is defined by a sex tape. - Ta bu shi da yu 15:22, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Sex tape

message: "A nude scene featuring Colin Farrell has been cut from upcoming movie A Home At The End Of The World because the actor is "too well hung", The Sun reports today.
Apparently the naked scenes featuring the Irish bad boy caused such a stir amongst test audiences that the director decided to leave them out of the film altogether.
A source told the tabloid: "All you could hear were gasps when Colin appeared in his full-frontal pose.  The women were over-excited and the men looked really uncomfortable.  It was such a sight it made it difficult to concentrate on the plot, so the decision was made to get rid of it."
Director Michael Mayer admitted that it was "distracting" but added that fans would still be able to see the original scene on the DVD version of the film."
then this sex tape surfaces and his "equipment" is as standard sized as it gets... 
Actually, i've seen it, it's above "standard."
Kind of funny... don't you think? 
Celebrities are weird persons.
add more information about his life
:You can add more info, too. Or show me a source for info, and I'll add it myself. JackO'Lantern 08:18, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

message: Nothing about common criticisms about his acting (i.e. he lacks talent)
B**lshit. He is a natural talent. Try having a NPOV on Wikipedia if you have nothing positive to say. Michaelh2001 10:27, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Er, can opinion be saved for the tabloid press? Personally, I feel Farrell as a High-B actor badly managed, but hopes and opinions have no place in scholarly consideration.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Coloneldoctor (talk • contribs) 21:30, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

message: Colin appeared in an Irish show called "Ballykissangel" in the nineties i can't edit so if someone could find a source for it....because if it is sourced it will be proven that his "years active" are earlier than 1999 Rmuluu (talk) 00:04, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

message: British stage, screen, and television actor born 1938. Has he become an unperson? How did equity allow two actors with the same name to work?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.10.198.101 (talk) 20:56, 8 December 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Proposition for sex material 

message: There are numerous dead links, and quite a bit of material that is dated and not written in a encyclopediatic tone. I am not good at this stuff, but it seems that the subject of the article is worthy of a better written bio. Maybe the BLPN board could be notified and other editors could help improve the quality of this bio? --Mollskman (talk) 00:14, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Article needs serious help 

message: As I'm adding more material to this article, I think it important to break down the "Career" section into more palatable chunks, i.e., subcategories. See Kate Beckinsale's article. While CF's career's not as cut and dried as hers in terms of a big move from the UK after establishing herself or the deliberate focus on action, he's had as long of a career with a definable overall arc, I think. For example, I've read in New York magazine how Fright Night seemed to mark a "comeback" for him (the critic was quite excited), and a recent issue talked about his "starring in movies again" or some such with Total Recall. Anyway, let's discuss here before just taking these subcategories out, gracias.--Aichikawa (talk) 21:11, 20 August 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: It seems like editors have been fighting me on this--without discussing it here, I might add--so I've left it as is. But doesn't it bother anyone that these now huge sections aren't broken down a bit?--Aichik (talk) 15:32, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

message: Does anyone even read this board, LOL. I was thinking of taking out some of the mentions of limited theatrical releases as alot of these films are available on DVD now. What say you people?--Aichikawa (talk) 01:34, 18 September 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Sourcing 

message: This new material "Farrell was discovered in Sydney by Hume Theatre Company and cast in the role of Stevie Hart in their original production of Kelly's Reign" need a reference.

Like I said before, are you familiar with WP:EL at all? Because for some reason you still decided to revert me again. "Comes with a article if you'd bother to read it". Did you bother to read it? Because the link isn't about Farrell, it's about In Bruges. Oh wait, it's also about a film called The Band's Visit. Actually, it's a two part film review.
