message: Why are spaces placed between "Shark" and "Boy" and "Lava" and "Girl?" On the box there are no spaces in their names. The IMDB page for "The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl in 3-D" also does not use spaces in the title. I tried to find the official website, but it seems Miramax has taken it offline. I was, however able to find the DVD version of "The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl in 3-D" website. It looks to me like "in 3-D" is a part of the title even though the movie is also available in 2-D. Jecowa 21:16, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

message: * This is NOT Rodriguez's "lowest grossing commercial film." It made almost $40 million in the U.S and another $30 million overseas. Better then El Mariachi, Dusk Till Dawn and Desperado. Just the facts please people!
*Why in the ever-bleeding Christ is the synopsis for this article so long? There are articles about presidents shorter than this! Kindly shorten it, no one cares enough to read a 46-page masters thesis on the wonder that is Sharkboy and Lavagirl.
* Someone please shorten the article, I agree with the user above, it was WAY too long. It looks like it was lifted off of a fan site or something. Sabishii Kouen 02:37, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

message: It looks like the "Disney Channel Preimere [sic]" section needs a little cleanup.

thread_title:  WikiProject class rating

message: I tried to create a shorter plot summary by combining the work of a bunch of different editors (my own contributions, the really long summary, and the shorter one that appeared after the long one was removed)(I also did something similar for the story paragraph up top). I tried really hard to combine and preserve these different visions by carefully choosing what to use and where... so it would be lovely if we could discuss changes here! Of course, this is Wikipedia, you're welcome to edit it and delete it as you deem appropiate. --RainbowWerewolf (talk) 16:53, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Plot summary

message: I would like to propose that we take some stuff from the way-too-long plot, the cast list, and some of the tidbits of casting information and combine it all into a new section called "Cast and Characters" or something like that (this directly follows the example of several featured articles for somewhat similar films). Here's a preview of what I had in mind:
* Taylor Lautner as Sharkboy. He is a superhero dreamt up by Max. He was separated from his father (a marine biologist) in a storm when his floating laboratory was destroyed. He was then raised by sharks and posesses many of their abilities. Lautner's martial arts skills helped him to get the role of Sharkboy. "When I auditioned for the film, Robert Rodriguez, the director, didn't know that I had my martial arts [background], and while we there in Austin, TX he saw a DVD of me and asked me to choreograph my own fight scenes," said Lautner.[1] (reference)
* Taylor Dooley plays Lavagirl, another creation of Max. Her origins are unknown; indeed, she is uncertain of her own identity/purpose throughout much of the film. (Followed by referenced info about casting and the creation of the character.) 
And for minor characters such as Max's parents:
* David Arquette and Kristin Davis as Max's Father and Mother respectively. His Father is an unemployed writer. Although they mean well for Max, they are on the brink of a divorce and thus unable to settle his troubles. (Then, in the plot summary, we could simply introduce them as "Max's arguing parents".) 
I think this this would be an elegant way to solve some of this article's problems but it's certainly not the only way. However, if nobody responds to this post, I might just try this out in the article... you guys can always revert my edit if you don't like it.

thread_title:  Sequel? 

message: The top says:
:The film performed well at the box office, and won praise from critics.
The Reception part says:
:he Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl 3-D was widely panned by critics, with a 20% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and performed poorly at the box office, grossing $39 million. No
The movie can't both perform well and win praise, and then perform poorly and be panned... someone here is lying and I don't know who.  That "no" in the end of the second one is there too, don't know what that means 24.91.72.168 (talk) 05:45, 9 September 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Doesn't make sense 

message: Okay, just pointing something out here guys. At the beginning of the article it states that it scored well at the box office and received positive reviews while the reception says the complete opposite. Somebody could check this out maybe? Me lazy... Kausill (Talk) (Contribs) 12:00, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: There I fixed it somewhat.  I realized the intro had plot and reception, instead of them being under "plot" and "reception".  Don't know exactly what the rules are, but I felt that having a small synopsis/plot outside its' section undermines the purpose of structure and style wiki movie pages have.  If that's incorrect and someone feels like they should put it back, at least correct the reception, which I've checked.  The movie was received poorly by critics and did poorly at the box office, as shown by the sources at reception. I hope I didn't step on anybodies toes. 24.91.72.168 (talk) 03:57, 11 September 2009 (UTC)

message: this movie and all others and wikipedia should always list the FORMATS it was released in. I know its released on dvd and bluray, but im trying to find out if its also been released in a anaglypic 3d version in either format?
this information never seems to be available on wikipedia but it needs to be.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.160.131.17 (talk) 15:06, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

message: It said on some website that there was going to be a sequel called The Adventures of Shark Boy and Lava Girl 2: The Attack of the Daydreamers. It is said to be airing in theatres in July 2012. Shouldn't  there be a note about it?Peta8 (talk) 22:49, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Sequel note 

message: User FanGirl2003 keeps adding an actor to the infobox who doesn't appear on the poster.. This contravenes the infobox instructions at Template:Infobox film, which states, ": Insert the names of the actors as they are listed in the billing block of the poster for the film's original theatrical release." I've informed her of the guideline, but no response. Who is this additional person and why are they being added to the starring parameter? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 07:13, 17 November 2014 (UTC)

message: Recent edits made to this page are full of demonstrably wrong information; to comply with the 3RR, I'm opening this topic so other users can weigh in. 
To name a few mistakes: The Ice Princess (not "Bewitched") was played by Sasha Pieterse, which can easily be verified in her WP entry or the corresponding IMDB page. 
We Can Be Heroes was released in 2020 on Netflix, not 2007 Hallmark Channel. 
Robert Rodríguez voiced the shark, not Guillermo del Toro (again, easily verifiable). 
I could go on, but you get the point. Envysan (talk) 05:14, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
