::Ya think? "It stars Alex Etel as a young boy who discovers a mysterious egg and cares for what hatches out of it: a 'water horse' (loosely based on the Celtic water horse) which later become the fabled Loch Ness Monster, Emily Watson, Ben Chaplin, and David Morrissey."  According to this, the movie stars Alex Etel, and the movie cares for what hatches out of Alex's egg. What hatches out of it is either a water horse, Emily Watson, Ben Chaplin and David Morrissey, OR simply a water horse. If simply a water horse, the water horse later becomes (in turn? At once?) the fabled Loch Ness Monster, Emily Watson, Ben Chaplin and David Morrissey.
::I'm not sure which is funnier. All these actors hatching out of an egg, or just one water horse hatching out if an egg, to later transforming into a scottish plesiosaur and three actors.

message: I added the Production section back into the article. One of our fellow editors added some humorous statements to it and then another editor deleted it... so I put an earlier version back in. Please forgive me if I messed anything up or did the wrong thing. --RainbowWerewolf (talk) 23:23, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

message: Shouldn't Wikipedia have a page about the novel The Water Horse, not just the film?--Clover08 (talk) 12:18, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: From my understanding of the rules, if a book has been made into a film then that is grounds for notability... a page for that book would be unlikely to be deleted, I think. However, if you have referenced material about the book itself, that would really help and there would be no doubt in my mind that starting such a page would be a beneficial. So many pages for books that have been made into films are just stubs... Anyway, I volunteer to look for references, or help incorporate any I might come across if you want to go ahead and start the page.--RainbowWerewolf (talk) 19:30, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

message: There was a black-and-white photograph of a capital ship on a pinboard in Angus' shed. The shape of the ship reminded me the one of either the HMS Hood (51) or of a King George V class battleship (probably the Prince of Wales as she was already sunk the time the story takes place, fitting to the mother's explanation that Angus' father was KIA some times ago). Has anybody a clue if I'm right with this point? Grand-Duc (talk) 16:56, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Warship picture seen in the movie 

message: I deleted some unsourced nonsense claiming this was derivative of Eragon, itself probably one of the most derivative stories in history.  Of course some critic MAY have said something this stupid, so if sourced please add back in, but I don't see any need to add back the name of an actor who appeared in Eragon.

message: I'm pretty sure that I heard Loch Morar mentioned early in the film, not Loch Ness. But it's such a dire film I don't want to plough through it again. For those who don't know, Loch Morar is the deepest loch in Scotland, and also has a ["beastie"] of legend. That would make the "village" that appears sporadically either Arisaig or Mallaig.
I thought the house was Carbisdale Castle, a Youth Hostel with a remarkable amount of statuary, but it seems not.
