[edit] Christopher Saint

Along with Booth Brothers, Death Tunnel (movie) et all. Further more Saint%22 MPSE&btnG=Search Google search shows that he in fact has NOT won any MPSE in sound editing. ⇒ SWATJester Ready Aim Fire! 06:57, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

  • Comment Note: Assertion of contacts with Bryan Adams and Sweeny Todd band appear to be fake. Bryan Adams was in Sweeny Todd [1], but Christopher Saint does not appear to have been. However, John Booth appears to have been, and given the Booth name connection to this, it appears to be a very suspicious claim, especially given the lack of hits regarding the MPSE ⇒ SWATJester Ready Aim Fire! 07:04, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete I have not seen any clear evidence that Christopher Saint actually worked with Bryan Adams. He was brought in as the replacement for Bryan Adams on lead vocals, but the band was on the decline broke up shortly thereafter. No albums were released with Booth as the vocalist. Performing remixes as a DJ is not qualify as releasing 200 songs. The entire article is clearly vanity and a series of nothing but gross exaggerations. Bige1977 19:14, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

  • Comment Death Tunnel was nominated for BestSound Editing in a Foreign Feature in which Christopher Saint Booth performed this service: http://www.mpse.org/goldenreels/foreign.html Christopher Saint is a AKA for Christopher Booth who was in Sweeney Todd. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweeney_Todd_%28band%29 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Csaint (talk • contribs) 09:11, 10 April 2006
    • Comment - can you prove that the requirement for nomination is more stringent than it merely being sound edited outside of the US? Average Earthman 13:03, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment Death tunnel was not nominated for BestSound Editing in a Foreign Feature. It is one name in a very long a list of entries submitted by the filmmakers themselves, not by a nominating board or a notable third party. Bige1977 18:51, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

  • Comment According to the article on Sweeney Todd, Christopher Booth was not in the band, John Booth was in the band. ⇒ SWATJester Ready Aim Fire! 18:13, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment. This article appears to be a copyvio from [2]. I haven't checked the others. It's possible the author of the article is the author of the blog, but that was not immediately obvious to me. —Seqsea (talk) 02:56, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Article needs editing/wikifying/cleanup/etc, unless it is firmly established as fake, then I will come back and change my vote to delete. --ElectricEye 00:38, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment Note: Assertion of contacts with Bryan Adams and Sweeny Todd band appear to be fake. Bryan Adams was in Sweeny Todd [3], but Christopher Saint does not appear to have been.

Sweeney Todd
Nick Gilder (lead vocals)
Jim McCulloch (guitars)
John Booth (drums)
Budd Marr (bass)
Dan Gaudin (keyboards)
Clark Perry (lead vocals; replaced Gilder 1976)
Bryan Adams (lead vocals; replaced Perry 1976)
Skip Prest (guitar; replaced McCulloch 1976)
Chris Booth (lead vocals; replaced Adams 1977)
  • Comment Reading on in the article cited, we see this: "in 1977 Adams left the band. He was replaced by Chris Booth. Adams's departure signaled the end of the band. Prest left shortly thereafter to work with the Rocket Norton Band, to be replaced by Grant Gislason, but this version didn't last long and they called it quits in 1978." This may not qualify as notability for Booth. --John Nagle 21:33, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
