Talk:Fantastic Fest

message: I don't think a complete list of films screened at each festival is appropriate.  That's probably just way too much information.  What about the list of films that received awards at the festival, followed by an abbreviated list of other screened films?
Here is the list of award winners for 2006:
====Audience Awards====
*1st Place: Hatchet
*2nd Place:  Isolation
*3rd Place: Firefly
====Short Film Awards====
*Best of Show: The Listening Dead
*Best Short Form: The Cost of Living

*Best Director: Billy O'Brien,  Isolation
*Best Script: Dylan Bank and Morgan Pehme, Nightmare

replies: text: After reading through more Wikipedia film festival and movie pages, I think the awards, if notable, should be listed in the articles for the movies themselves.  On the other hand, the things notable about Fantastic Fest are the movies that premiered here, as well as the special screening films as those tend to be new/interesting content.  Anyway, that's the format I've applied to the years, and I'll use that moving forward.  I don't actually know what movies premiered each year; I'll try to dig out my programs to verify.  (I don't see it on the 2007 archived site, and I don't see the 2006 site online any more.) N Norder (talk) 00:01, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Horror Jury Awards

message: I disagree with the notability warning tag on this article.  Wikipedia is home to a "Film festivals in the United States" category with hundreds of small festivals listed.  Moreover it hosts a "Fantastic film festivals" category with more than a dozen festivals worldwide.  It is certainly no less notable than those.  Most recently, note that Fantastic Fest hosted the world premiere for There Will Be Blood, a film nominated for Best Picture at the 2008 Academy Awards. -- N Norder (talk) 21:46, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I've found numerous wikipedia pages that mention Fantastic Fest but fail to link to it.  Adding appropriate links should boost the number of pages that reference this article, and hence it's notability. N Norder (talk) 22:44, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Notability Warning 

message: I added some references to some things today to help reduce the amount of junk at the top of the article.  More will come as I get time and sleep.  Some material from 2008 was added with and without references for now.N Norder (talk) 05:00, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
