Talk:Congo (film)

message: I reverted this page to a previous version because almost all of the text was lifted directly from IMDB's plot summary for the film.  I then re-did the legitimate edits people did after that text was added. I am willing to rewrite the article if no one else is interested. Aguerriero 20:27, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

message: Much of this article reads like it is not written with a neutral point of view and feels more like a review of the movie instead. I've edited the Differences section to remove some of this, but it still needs work.--GeneralDuke 23:15, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Can someone explain what was the "electronic sign language interpreter" used in the movie? Reference to this device was made under the heading, Innovations and Explanations. --Joel M. 19:57, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

message: The first bullet under "differences from the book" is very confusing.  I haven't read the book, so I'm not really sure what's meant here, but if I'm reading it correctly, it should read something like this:
"In the book, the gray apes look similar to ordinary gorillas, but are smaller.  In the movie, they are the size of normal gorillas and have a monstrous appearance."
Am I getting this right?  If so, I'll change the wording on the page. 24.127.52.15 23:56, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm having a larger problem with this section, in that quite a lot of it doesn't make sense.  It's all due to the wording.  Sorry if I've "over-templated" the section, but I was trying to point out the numerous problems.  Generally, it's often not clear whether the editor was referring to the book or the film.  There are also instances where it is not clear what the difference is that the editor is referencing.  In one instance, "Monroe" is referred to as "the aforementioned character", except now the spelling has changed without explanation (is that another difference, or did the editor goof?).  Other references are simply not explained: "the transliterated joke", "a gorilla slicing laser".  If a joke has changed, you have to tell what the joke is and how the change affects its meaning; a term like "gorilla slicing laser" has no intrinsic meaning (a laser for slicing gorillas??) and requires explanation.  Having not read the book or seen the movie, I cannot straighten this mess out. 12.233.146.130 (talk) 20:28, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

I remember reading the book and watching the show but... aggressive tea party?

message: I was wondering if anyone would like to elborate on what type of portable air conditioner they used in the movie. I've never seen anything like that and was wondering if anything like that even exists? Wickland (talk) 18:10, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

These are very important pieces of information and must be added to the article in order for it to meet Wikipiedia's standards of a well developed article.--Paleface Jack (talk) 19:50, 12 October 2015 (UTC)

message: There was another tie-in video game for PC called Congo the Movie: Descent into Zinj. It's a Myst-style adventure game and unlike the movie it's good. Aristides86 (talk) 16:06, 24 January 2017 (UTC)
