Talk:Kristanna Loken

message: It was foolish to label a section "Career", and then everything within it is about her "Acting Career", and so I have changed the title of the section to "Acting Career" to match what it really is. Now, there is the foolishness of the entire article's saying nothing at all about Kristanna's quite significant modeling career. Some people have gone off the deep end arguing about "android" vs. "gynoid" vs. "cyborg" vs. "cybernetic organism" (the "mote" in someone's eye) that they have neglected to write anything at all about Kristanna's modeling career (the "beam" in one's own eye). It is quite insulting to Kristanna to say nothing at all about her modeling career, something that she doubtless worked hard at learning how to do and her actual work/98.67.164.99 (talk) 17:26, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: That was probably not a good way to introduce your edits to an article.  If you think improvements can be made to an article, you can feel free to make them.  If you feel compelled to continue in the tone you used above, you may find editing Wikipedia to be a difficult experience.  Chicken Wing (talk) 21:39, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

text: It seems worth noting also that at least some of your comments are of debatable authority.  "Website" does not need to be capitalized or spaced. Kristanna Loken has been reportedly billed before as "Kristanna Løken". Another debatable point would be the use of the word "both" to refer to maternal and paternal grandparents.  Yes, there are four grandparents, but there are also two sets of grandparents in the sentence (those being maternal and paternal).  Thus, "both" does not appear to be absolutely incorrect.  There was really no reason to begin with such an inflammatory section, as this article has already seen a disproportionate amount of arguing.  Chicken Wing (talk) 21:48, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

message: It does appear to qualify under the template that is attached to it:
Unless I am reading it wrong. The only objection I could see from some one is what she is wearing, versus what the license is. If we say that this image is wrong b/c of the license, then any image we use of a magazine cover should be removed as well. If some one is going to remove this, state why you really are removing it.--Azathar 05:53, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

message: If the actress's name is spelled "Løken", why isn't the article at Kristanna Løken?  —  pd_THOR | =/\= | 02:02, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I believe her ancestors' name was "Løken", but she spells her name "Loken" now. —Nightstallion (?) 16:30, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: This is an encyclopedia in the ENGLISH language, and not in Norwegian or anything else. The symbol "ø" is not part of the English alphabet, and is not used. Also, if you were to bother to examine her birth certificate, since she was born in the United States of America, her birth surname is doubtless spelled "Loken". It is an official document in New York State. There is an old saying, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do," and likewise, when born in the United States, people write their names as the Americans do.98.67.164.99 (talk) 17:14, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: title?

message: Chicken Wing, in your opinion her role in The Ring of the Nibelungs is not her most famous role, but that's your personal opinion and not an undeniable fact. The majority of people in Europe would have been introduced to Kristanna through that role, and I as a European want to acknowledge that fact. And what about her role in Mortal Kombat Conquest? That was a more notable role which would have introduced her to more Americans across the USA than the flop BloodRayne. 80.43.42.92 16:31, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not just my opinion.  BloodRayne is her biggest role as the title character, even though the movie did poorly both at the box office and with critics.  T3 was the biggest film she has been in with regard to box office and exposure.  There's no reason to clutter that small box with all of her roles when there is also a selected filmography on the page, so those two movies will suffice.  Chicken Wing 22:27, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Indeed, the "Notable Roles" section isn't supposed to cover everything she's done; that's what the rest of the article is for. Chicken Wing's rationale for those two roles (largest single role in a film + largest film she's been involved in) seems pretty sound to me. EVula // talk // ☯ // 01:23, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

text: BloodRayne, as has already been stated, was a personal milestone for the actress, being her largest role to date. The fact that it bombed (I didn't see it; I could tell it would be crap) is largely irrelevant. While MK Conquest and Nibelungs are big, I don't think that it really matches the overall marketing push behind Terminator 3, which is why I think that is a more representative role (and should therefore be in the infobox). EVula // talk // ☯ // 06:01, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

text: Hmm, an excellent point. Given that, perhaps we should add Taja from Mortal Kombat: Conquest; given the fact that she was one of three main characters of a 22-episode show puts it above a TV movie, in my opinion (plus, MKC is from 1998 vs. Nibelungs in 2004, making it a much easier "break-out role" argument). EVula // talk // ☯ // 16:39, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

text: No way, those analogies don't match up.  BloodRayne is the biggest role Loken has had as the top-billed star.  The arguments about Owen and Jackman don't fly because they've played the top-billed character in bigger movies than the ones you listed, whereas Loken only has BloodRayne.  Alexander actually is Farrell's biggest title role to date, and actually is listed on his Wikipedia bio in notable roles, so that only supports the BloodRayne argument.  Secondly, MK: Conquest was a TV show that was cancel after one season, and nobody outside die-hard MK fans or die-hard Loken fans could even tell you that Loken was in that series.  The series doesn't even have a region 1 DVD.  Don't get me wrong, I'd watch MK: Conquest a hundred times before I had to watch BloodRayne again (or the MK movies again), but it's just not a very notable role.

thread_title: Brunhild & Taja

message: Look at this information about her marriage in the article:
"On January 17, 2008, Loken announced on her Web site that she had become engaged to the actor Noah Danby (her co-star in Painkiller Jane). The couple were married at her family's farm on May 10, 2008.[10]
In an interview published on November 16, 2009, she announced that she had separated from husband Noah Danby and was now in a relationship with a woman.[11]"
Anything there seem funny to anybody else? How could she have said in November 2009 that her marriage in May 2010 is over?--In All Honor 23:31, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I think you're misreading that, it says the marriage was on May 10 in 2008, not in May 2010. Siawase (talk) 12:24, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
