message: According to Sony Pictures Animation's artist, Armand Serrano, Sony has cancelled The Familiars: http://armandserrano.blogspot.com/2012/08/bridgetower.html, http://armandserrano.blogspot.com/2012/09/bridgetower-2.html.
* Both posts are labelled with The Familiars. Titles of both posts are "The Bridgetower", which is a city from the Familiars novels: http://www.thefamiliars.com/meet-the-familiars.php.
* Some other images from his gallery that are titled with "familiars" have the same content as pictures in his posts linked above: http://www.armandserrano.com/Gallery1/images/familiars1.jpg, http://www.armandserrano.com/Gallery1/images/familiars2.jpg, http://www.armandserrano.com/Gallery1/images/familiars3.jpg
* Two months ago SPA listed The Familiars as a project in development: http://sonypicturesanimation.com/newsroom.php?p=article&s=071212. In the press release from 2 weeks ago, The Familiars hasn't been included in the development slate: http://sonypicturesanimation.com/newsroom.php?p=article&s=082712.
* Armand Serrano's blog is reliable - his blog was linked from the official Sony Picures Animation's twitter account: http://twitter.com/SonyAnimation/status/205043760537665536. And SPA's twitter account is reliable as it is linked from the official SPA's home page: http://www.sonypicturesanimation.com/.
* As far as adding citations in the article. Where to? Sony has cancelled many projects in its history. More than there have been produced. Some of the cancelled projects can be seen in the Serrano's gallery and none of them has any info on this article: http://www.armandserrano.com/home/home.html. Except for Neanderthals, which has as a source for its cancellation Serrano's blog post. Recently I've removed Futuropolis based on Serrano's comment in his gallery. If we add every project that has been halted in the development process, there would be too many secondary information that has not had any substantial impact on the studio or has been particularly noted.
Are there still any objections against the removal of The Familiars from this article?--Carniolus (talk) 12:15, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: First, blogs are not reliable sources regardless of how many Twitter, Facebook, YouTube etc links there are. A citation does not acquire reliability by association. Secondly, please provide a citation to a reliable source that clearly states that the film is cancelled, not citations to sources that do not mention the film. Not mentioning something is not evidence that it does not exist. And certainly a title to an image is not evidence of anything. There are sources provided in the articles that confirm the film. It is your responsibility to provide a reliable source that unequivocally confirms that it has been cancelled. This is an encyclopedia, not a tabloid or a personal website.

replies: text: Supplying a bit more info might have yielded quicker response, . The content appears to have been added here on 21 July 2016 and here on 26 July 2016. The second instance contains a bogus link to "daedline.com" . There's no such site, and the reference doesn't resolve at "deadline.com" either. I'd guess that it's just hoax nonsense.

message: Has Sony Pictures ever distributed a Sony Pictures Animation film before? No. Columbia Pictures has distributed the films.
And how come Columbia doesn't get all the credit? It has distributed several films before Sony bought the rights! And Sony Pictures is the parent of all their divisions. So I say, give Columbia Pictures a division: Sony Pictures Animation. Or have Columbia Pictures be the parent of Sony Pictures Animation.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by XSMan2016 (talk • contribs) 23:31, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

message: An anonymous user bought the idea of making another table for the films SPA distributes (such as the live-action hybrids and the Aardman productions), to avoid reader confusion. While I'm heistant on the idea (especially to keep the article comfortable to navigate and read), I would want other editors opinion on this proposal. Gouleg (talk) 04:35, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Separate table for co-productions? 

message: Sony Animation didn't have any involment with this film other than being distributed (by Sony Pictures Releasing) unlike the sequel which does label in its marketing as being released under the SPA label and this diff shows addition of a note which does not conform to the encyclopedic style. So it should be included in the feature films table with a different note or only the Releasing page should contain this movie? Gouleg (talk) 21:26, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

message: Is no one gonna mention in the article that after The Angry Birds Movie 2, the following Sony Pictures Animation films had been released to streaming and there haven't been any theatrical releases due to the COVID-19 pandemic's impact?
--XSMan2016 (talk) 16:31, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: You may add it only if someone else has reported about the latest SPA films being released solely on streaming, otherwise this is just an observation you made that comes out as trivia. This could also be misleading as films like The Mitchells vs. the Machines and Vivo (film) did have a -limited- theatrical release -Gouleg🛋️ harass/hound 17:09, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I didn't know there were limited releases to those films. But if those limited theatrical releases weren't in America, that'd probably be moot. --XSMan2016 (talk) 01:41, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: The limited theatrical release for each movie are mentioned in their respective articles. However I don't see the relevancy of this fact to the article, the COVID pandemic was an exceptional event that affected most of the film industry and distributors had to take action so their movies wouldn't become financial losses (i.e. Disney made the decision to focus more on streaming during the pandemic. ). Again, if someone has wrote about Sony's decision to release those films through Netflix and how the pandemic was indeed a factor, be my guest -Gouleg🛋️ harass/hound 16:18, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
