Talk:Watership Down (film)

message: I have a website for the citation of the line "The film is also possibly the only U-rated film to include the phrase "piss off"[citation needed]" but i'm not sure how to add it.

replies: text: There's no argument about whether or not the film contains the phrase: we know it does. What's needed is a citation specifically for its being the only U-rated film that does; unfortunately, your transcript doesn't help us there. Loganberry (Talk) 16:14, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps we could track what films use the line at Wiktionary and a failure to find a U film to quote is proof? ScratchMarshall (talk) 22:14, 24 July 2017 (UTC)
thread_title: Citation for "piss off"

message: I have removed this recently-added section, as it doesn't have any references and I couldn't find anything on a quick Google search to indicate this is going ahead. The image is also unsourced. In case some proper refs can be added, I have pasted the edit below. Bob talk 23:20, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

message: Why is that there at the bottom? Unless someone can explain the relevance I'm assuming this can be removed. Thanks. Nora nettlerash (talk) 23:08, 2 October 2011 (UTC)

Woman's voice. Can't figure out if this is Clover voiced by Mary or Hazenthlay voiced by Hannah. Are there any scripts which attribute names to lines? ScratchMarshall (talk) 22:12, 24 July 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Girl bunny 

message: Watching this movie as a child was one of the most traumatic things in my life.  I seriously want to see a study of the mental health differences of people based on the age they first saw it.  I've talked to a bunch of people who feel similarly.  I feel like this deserves mention in the article.  I have not attempted to dig up citations yet.  —Darxus (talk) 01:38, 28 May 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: As far as I know there's no studies on how the film has affected viewers, only anecdotal memories (such as your own). I have added a new sub-section under 'Release and Reception' on the film's reputation as a distressing kids film which others are welcome to add to with further sources.Cinefeline (talk) 17:11, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Traumatic 

message: The 'Release and Reception' section only refers to Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic, which contain mostly recent reviews, and one retrospective from 2018. There are no reviews cited from 1978. The sources currently cited in this section indicate that the film's reputation is now largely positive, but I've found that reviews from 1978 present a far more mixed picture. I have a lot of reviews from 1978, in old magazines and newspaper databases, which I would like to add to this section and give a more accurate picture of the film's reception when it was first released.

replies: text: Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic metrics really shouldn't be included for films this old (see WP:AGG#Limitations) because they don't paint an accurate picture of the reception. If you want to add more contemporary reviews then feel free to do so. Please make sure you provide citations. Betty Logan (talk) 20:45, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I've significantly expanded on the reception of the film. This is my first try at editing Wikipedia so feedback is more than welcome. Cinefeline (talk) 17:08, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: It's mostly fine, and well written. I have removed some unsubstantiated original research because claims about the overall reception need to be sourced per MOS:FILM#Critical reception. I have also removed the aggregator data in line with WP:AGG, because it is not clear how representative it is of the current reception. Aggregators often include reviews from the time of the original release, so it's not clear at all if critical opinion has shifted down the years. Betty Logan (talk) 15:47, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
