[edit] Tree of Life (film)

Tree of Life (film) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Future film. As it stands, deletable as pure crystal ballery. Krevans, your edit summary says: "the 'Q' rumors are notable ...". I agree, but if do not link to the 'Q' rumours, your comment is useless. -- RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 04:42, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete per WP:CRYSTAL. Also unsourced and main search results I found for it are still very much "may happen" type stuff. If it the movie is firmed up and released, then no prejudice to recreate with the name Tree of Life (2008 film) (as there is already film called Tree of Life released in 1998).

  • Delete. This project first came about back in August 2005, according to The Hollywood Reporter, with Colin Farrell being discussed. Two and a half years later, it still hadn't entered production. More recently, Ledger and Penn are reported to be involved with this project. However, there is no indication that production has commenced, so in line with the notability guidelines for future films, a stand-alone article is not yet warranted. Mention of the project can be made at Terrence Malick until this film enters actual production. For all we know, it could take another 2.5 years for the project to get to production. Of course, if production begins, it'd be appropriate for the article to be created due to the near-guarantee of the full monty -- plot, cast, production, reception, etc. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 13:08, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
  • A paragraph already exists at Terrence Malick about the film in development, though another change is worth noting -- instead of Heath Ledger, Brad Pitt is reported to be in the lead role, as of December 2007. That's three different actors that have been involved with the project so far, which goes to show that there are factors affecting this project's progress. We deleted The Wrestler (film) not long ago (see AFD), but I later recreated it as The Wrestler (2009 film) when production began. As one can tell, it's completely possible to recreate the article if production begins. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 13:25, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
