Talk:Takeshi's Castle

message: Would the soon to be premiered show "Wipeout" be considered a spinoff of Takeshi's Castle? The games and humor featured seem very similar.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.166.141.115 (talk) 07:16, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

message: You've all been doing a fantastic job on this article...however, it's currently at 48k, way past the 32k page limit.
Does anyone else think we need to move the list of games into a seperate article, something like List of games used in Takeshi's Castle? BillyH 17:17, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)

message: This article claims the prize for winning the game was "one million Yen" but then someone wrote 一億円 which would be 100 million Yen. I'm assuming the former is correct (since 100 million Yen is a hell of a lot of money for a game show prize) so I'm removing the Japanese, but if someone knows for sure please correct me! --Do Not Talk About Feitclub (contributions) 17:41, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  One ''Million'' Yen? 

message: This article is rather a mess.  There's a lot of interleaving of information about the main show and the many regional versions.  I propose that the main body of the article be solely about the original Japanese show, with each notes on each regional version in its own section (or even an external article, while may be appropriate for MXC). 71.143.137.105 05:22, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: This makes sense, at least with each as a subsection with three or four equal signs enclosing its header. Certainly MXC needs its own separate article. --Kaz 18:44, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reorganization 

message: It is not clear, in the Takeshi Doll paragraph in the article, whether Count Takeshi "served time" as part of the plotline, or Takeshi Kitano served time in real life. I would fix it, but I am only 90% certain it refers to real life. Perhaps someone who knows for certain can fix it. Just clarify which it is. --Kaz 18:08, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I believe it was he himself who served time, and they just had the Takeshi doll stand-in during that period.DemonWeb 18:37, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, then detail of the crime/conviction/whatever needs to also be added to the Takeshi Kitano article, as well as clarification being added to the Takeshi Doll paragraph here. --Kaz 18:43, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Jail Time? 

message: I'm reintroducing this issue again, this time with a template. I feel that it is a different enough show that it warrents it's own article. 
Unless there's an overwhelming no, I'll move everything from the mXc over to the new page within a week, leaving only a general paragraph on this page. Mshake3 22:38, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

message: I'm thinking about removing MXC references from the character and game sections. It's hard to say "(character) is called (this name) on MXC" when he goes by as many as five different names, and counting, ditto with the games section. This also stays in line with the Power Rangers and Super Sentai articles. Thoughts? Mshake3 14:40, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  International versions 

message: The australian comedian Clive James (who is also very famous in the UK) once appeared as a contestant on Takeshi's Castle as part of a documentary he was making about Japan. I think this (and any other famous contestants) should be mentioned. See: http://www.veoh.com/videos/v1137894qBNdDCKk

message: The planned 3 box release of Takeshi’s castle is I think cancelled. Vol.2 of a three disc box set was never released. I own the Vol.1 set and Vol.2 should have come out in September 2008, but it never came into the shops. Curse TBS, they managed to block the first attempt to make a DVD serie out of Takeshi’s Castle. It is a very big disappointment for the German fans, who saw their dream of a Takeshi’s Castle DVD box ending by only 12 episodes released. Curse you Tokyo Broadcasting System. --UDSS (talk) 21:19, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

message: According to interviews with Takeshi's Castle Contestants, the show was not filmed in one day. It was filmed over the course of 3 days made to look like it took place in one day. The first day of shooting was the peripheral contestants scenes, Day 2 was the Field reporter sketches, and Day 3 was the Takeshi and Higashi sketches and the final showdown.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Notundercovercop327 (talk) 17:25, 29 July 2010 (UTC)

message: Is there any information how to obtain the Japanese version of this show? Because all foreign versions are ruined. They have up to 30 minutes less duration and really bad commentary instead of proper dubbing. That would be really great information.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.194.233.201 (talk) 14:30, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

there is nothing literal about calling clouds and wind "turbulence"... and frankly that's about all that is different from the official translation, so unless someone wants to come up with a better translation then this just shouldn't be here since it is misleading information 50.54.144.212 (talk) 00:08, 23 March 2023 (UTC)

message: The title card used on the front page is not for the Japanese series. As this is a Japanese show and should reference the Japanese version, The image should be updated to the Japanese logo and/or title card. Notundercovercop327 (talk) 00:09, 23 December 2023 (UTC)

message: I'm guessing that the "ladder lottery" is referring to one of those things where you pick one of several options (usually doors) and have to turn at every junction, and you win whatever you end up at when you get to the bottom. I don't know how to make that phrase more simple/"remove jargon", though. "Maze Game"? Kurzov (talk) 12:39, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
