Time Period Inquiry

Latest comment: 1 month ago4 comments3 people in discussion

Hello! The current synopsis says that Forgotten Island takes place in the 1990s. Personally, I find that odd, because the "Who Let the Dogs Out" song that appeared in the trailer was released in 2000. Additionally, the 1990 flashback shows Jo and Raissa in elementary school, likely in 1st or 2nd grade, making them around 6 to 7 years old. Combined with the fact that you usually graduate high school at 17 or 18 years old, it could confirm that the time period may be 2000. What are your thoughts? ~2026-49144-62 (talk) 20:30, 10 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

The release date of a song is not an argument, it can be artistic freedom or a mistake to use it. ~2026-42943-14 (talk) 11:46, 28 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

WP:NOTAFORUM guys. Wikipedia talk pages are not a place to theorycraft or impose "corrections" on "mistakes" (anachronism) in the film. Hariboneagle927 (talk) 15:09, 28 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, sorry. We do need reliable sources for stuff like that. Sorry. ~2026-42943-14 (talk) 15:20, 28 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

Humor

@ImmortalPharaoh: so far, no humor is mentioned in the reception section. If you want to put it into the lead, you need to put it into the reception section first, based on reliable sources. (Pls. note: your argument was "most cinemagoers reported lots of funny moments", which is *not* critical reception but audience receprion.) ~2026-42943-14 (talk) 11:44, 28 September 2026 (UTC)Reply

Is this needed?

Latest comment: 14 days ago3 comments2 people in discussion

"The film was released with limited direct competition, with the animated film The Cat in the Hat set to premiere in November."

Is this sentence (in the "release" section) really necessary or appropriate to include? GreatWhiteEditor (talk) 22:39, 27 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

It does put in context that there is no other noted animation film being shown. Could be worded better, maybe. But this is an observation by the Los Angeles Times and not a personal conjecture by some editor. Hariboneagle927 (talk) 14:52, 28 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

I think it could work but without the bit about Cat in the Hat. GreatWhiteEditor (talk) 20:53, 28 October 2026 (UTC)Reply
