Talk:Angel Heart

message: Horrible Article
It describes the ending indepth in the plot overview, for chrissakes. It tells you about how Cyphre is Satan in one of the beginning paragraphs... I wonder how many people have had the film ruined for them by reading this criminal article.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.56.193.240 (talk) 20:41, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

message: On http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092563/ it refers always to "Louis Cyphre", and not "Louis Cyphere". I'm going to change that in the article.-Zingazin 18:34, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

message: The info about the service number in the film is cited from Army records and is notable for the reason that no Army officer ever had that number.  I've come across numerous questions over the years, both in person and on net chat rooms, from people who have asked who's number that really was.  The answer being, it was made up.  For this reason, its a good bit of information for the article.  Unless it breaks Wikipedia policy to have it in there, there really is no reason why it should be removed. -OberRanks (talk) 14:41, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: This is not notable information. It's a piece of trivia. License plate numbers, telephone numbers, addresses, etc. are made up in thousands of other movies but sections like this do not exist in those articles. Sottolacqua (talk) 15:13, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

text: Most people wonder if telephone numbers or addresses are real places seen in other movies. That doesn't warrant an entire section in other movie articles and the argument about military personnel caters to a very specific audience. I'm sure movies like Full Metal Jacket and Platoon contain many references that may pique the interest of servicemen but neither article contains trivial comments or sections like the one above.

text: "A set of dog tags bearing the Army service number "O-168042" can be seen in the film as the service number of Harry Angel.   According to U.S. Army records, no officer was ever actually issued this number; the only person who ever held this service number was an enlisted soldier named John W. Cunyus who served during the First World War.(ref)United States Army Human Resources Command (HRC), Freedom of Information Act Inquiry, February 2009(/ref)"
The information is not pertinent to the film article.  A "Production" section for this article should have key details about the development, writing, filming, and editing process. Erik (talk) 19:55, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

text: This information still has no applicable reference to the topic of the article. Additionally, a Google search turns up results containing references to this in other trivia sections, and in the two applicable results with links still in tact this reference is repeated verbatim to what you have above.(1)(2). The article for 867-5309/Jenny has a detailed section about the use of the telephone number after the song was published because that number is directly related to the content of the article. What you're proposing including is akin to a reference of "123 Anystreet USA is an address seen in the film. John Doe once lived there." Sottolacqua (talk) 20:02, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Just clarification about the Google links you found.  They appear to be copies of this article on Wikipedia, not the other way around.  I wasn't sure if your suggestion was that I had copied the material from another website - I didn't, I did the original research with the Army that located the material to begin with. -OberRanks (talk) 21:04, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

text: Additionally, that anecdote in Jacob's Ladder (film) you referenced above is there because you added it. Sottolacqua (talk) 20:02, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

message: The article contains a question as to Bonet's departure from Cosby:
"Some[who?] blamed the controversial sex scene for Bonet's departure from The Cosby Show, which resulted in her starring on the Cosby-produced program spin-off, A Different World which premiered in 1987."
I don't have a resource to back this up, but I do remember it.  Being pre-internet, I probably saw it on Entertainment Tonight, or a similar show.  I'm pretty sure the Cosby people never said anything official, but it was at least pondered by the media.  Someone may be able to find a reference:  I challenge you!  72.219.62.17 (talk) 22:09, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
