message: :Image:Carolco.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

thread_title:  I'm very worried about Carolco, Cinergi, and C2... 

message: I have two concerns:
1. Could somebody please delete the profile of Jevon Tompkins or whoever keeps posting up Lupin III: The Mystery of Mamo on the Carolco page? Carolco had nothing to do with this film at all. Whenever it gets deleted, it keeps popping up again, because whoever wrote it is a jerk and deserves to have his/her profile removed. 
2. What did Carolco (or Warner Bros. Television) have to do with Mario and the Mob? Neither companies are listed in the IMDb profile of this.
:I have two answers:
:1. That would be a bit too harsh for the one who's been doing it, and calling him/her a "jerk" is not good faith.
:2. They were both on the IMDb profile for Mario and the Mob until recently, and the CLG Wiki page proves at least Carolco's involvement in the film. --Ryanasaurus0077 (talk) 15:50, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

message: Anybody have any idea of the etymology of the word "Carolco?" I'm thinking it might be from another language, but I'm not sure. A Google search doesn't seem to reveal any relevant links besides those pertaining to the company. PBP (talk) 06:16, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Beyond my level of understanding 

message: I could've sworn I saw a Carolco logo at the start of international trailers (e.g. the German trailer). Unfortunately, according to Wikipedia, if the only sources available are YouTube videos, it didn't happen! Even further to my chagrin, YouTube videos are the only places I could find a clear connection between Carolco and Reservoir Dogs--and they don't look doctored! (That said, I don't know whether a Carolco logo appeared on international prints of the film proper.) --Ryanasaurus007 (talk) 17:14, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Trailers aren't always correct -- distribution might change after a trailer was released. That said, I think the only connection between Reservoir Dogs and Carolco is that Live released Carolco's films on video, and Live also produced Reservoir Dogs.

replies: text:  Or could the Carolco logo have been on an early trailer that was later used for international markets (and the Carolco logo left intact)? --Ryanasaurus007 (talk) 03:59, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:  Maybe. It's Carolco, all sort of crazy stuff could have happened. :) Trivialist (talk) 13:13, 14 April 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reservoir Dogs 

message: So I was just linked to a Variety search for the term "Carolco" for between 1976 and 1982 by a fellow logo lover, and you'll never guess what I found. The only problem is sorting the sources, the way I see it, but in any case, Carolco's early filmography just got bigger and now features a bunch of films I never suspected (and a few I did) to have Carolco's involvement. --Ryanasaurus007 (talk) 05:26, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

message: Was that a false positive, by any chance? Because I'm pretty sure I had a good source for Bloodmoon, and as for Your Ticket Is Not Longer Valid I'd seen on IMDb that both Mario Kassar and Andy Vajna were among the credited crew members. --Ryanasaurus0077 (talk) 20:24, 18 February 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: The reference for Bloodmoon doesn't include any of the information you added; you didn't provide a source for 'Your Ticket Is No Longer Valid, and the changes to distribution credits don't make sense—if distribution was transferred from Carolco to another company, then there's no reason to list them here.

thread_title:  Semi-protected edit request on 9 December 2020 

message: I can't find a source for the Kassar quote that the Carolco name "has no meaning". It's in a couple other wikis (this article is their source, presumably) and a very amateur YouTube video entitled "The Rise and Fall of Carolco", but is not found in the linked article (of the same name) in the citation here. Anyone have a source? 2603:7081:6D05:6231:CD49:239B:A492:C6F6 (talk) 18:10, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
