message: I was very disappointed when I first read this entry.  I think it is an excellent movie and intend to do what I can, with help of others, to get this up to Class A, at least better than a C in everything.  The first item of business is that everywhere I look at "Official Information" the movie is Love of Siam not The Love of Siam except on some posters released in Taiwan.  I will attempt to correct this where it is incorrect.  Quotations of others I can not do anything about, except to verify.  The plot definitely needs to be trimmed.  I tell people to watch the movie.  They come back and say, "They don't have to watch the movie, the whole thing is in the Wiki."  Bad, bad, bad.  Suggestions?  Comment?  Help?  I will need help trimming the plot.  I am not a good story teller, but I am very attentive to details.  Thanks.

replies: text: The title is clearly given as The Love of Siam in the Thai DVD version of the film; that should be the standard reference, I think. The film's official website was also at www.theloveofsiam.com (Wayback link). Please also see WP:SIGLINK; your signature must link to your user page. --Paul_012 (talk) 09:59, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

replies: text:  At the very least, there should be a mention that the title of the Strand Releasing (English) release is Love of Siam (sans “The”) to allay confusion. The Love of Siam title appears in all of the DVD artwork and text including the disc title, packaging, menus, and subtitles. The only indications that the correct title is The Love of Siam are integrated within the movie itself and very easy to miss. (The correct title appears once after the intro scenes and again at the beginning of the film credits.) —Patrick Garies 07:53, 17 October 2011 (UTC)

text: This all very confusing now.  I don't speak or read Thai unfortunately, and have been waiting to ask on of my Thai friends.  But, linguistics is one of my hobbies, and I do not believe that the Thai language has definite or indefinite articles, which would mean that in Thai "The" does not exist.  And as mentioned many places if this was a Thai language review the rules would be different.  Need to think on this. :-) =>  I. B. D. Shank (talk) 20:48, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
