Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film.

[edit] Resources

May want to look to Comics2Film for additional information. I'd also suggest implementing the Cite news or Cite web templates. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 15:13, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] First Look

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuSwj5ok24k First Look at the project, a lot of info from the creators. Vicco Lizcano (talk) 15:48, 18 February 2008 (UTC) ^{(Hey! Listen!)}

For whatever reason, YouTube (and sites that are similar) videos aren't considered reliable sources. It's more than likely that for the bulk of the information, we'll have to wait for the DVD release so that someone can reference whatever documentaries are on them. -- Harish - 20:23, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Standalone?

I know in many ways it's simply not going to be considered a sequel to Batman Begins, or something preceding The Dark Knight, but isn't that the case with the story? -- Harish - 20:19, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] DC movies are not connected

Having Justice League and Wonder Woman in the proceeded by and followed is wrong. There is no connection to any of the films outside of the being DC. By this logic Constantine is connected to V for Vendetta or Batman Begins.76.241.88.186 (talk) 05:56, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

However, they are connected within the same series of films, if not by continuity. For the article's sake, it's best to show the readers which films were released in progression of the series since there is no continuity between them. Since there is already a page for the line of the films which explains that they are standalone, there's no need to show continuity progression. --CmdrClow (talk) 01:00, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

That's not how the proceeded by and followed by are used. Like I said above Constantine & V for Vendetta are both made by Warner Bros. and are DC Vertigo movies, they are not connected.99.163.157.119 (talk) 01:09, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Also, see Template:Infobox_Film.99.163.157.119 (talk) 01:22, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

The template says use these for a series of movies. Because the producers have called these a series, EVEN THOUGH THEY AREN'T CONNECTED BY CONTINUITY, they are still within the same franchise. --CmdrClow (talk) 08:27, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Actually, wouldn't Batman Begins be in the preceded by space, and The Dark Knight in the followed by space? I mean, these are the movies that this cartoon is related to. And these cartoons tell the story of what happens between those movies. Cubzrule (talk) 22:49, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Press Release

http://www.forbes.com/businesswire/feeds/businesswire/2008/02/25/businesswire20080225006136r1.html It's just a more verifiable source than World'sFinest.com Same thing though --Lordkelvin (talk) 21:31, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Infoboxes

There is not enough info for the individual segments to warrant infoboxes for them. 75.10.141.26 (talk) 22:43, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

The only reason I added them was because it makes the info in the info boxes look a bit more organized. But I can understand your point, if you all want to take it out, fine by me. Cubzrule (talk) 22:45, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

I get what you mean, once the individual plots and cast get filled out, that would be the time to add them. 75.10.141.26 (talk) 22:49, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Note: Not 100% accurate

Is that necessary with the the future films tag on the top pretty much saying that the content of the page might change? Cubzrule (talk) 22:56, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Protected

The page is protected.

Please discuss on this talk page rather than the constant reversion seen so far. - jc37 04:27, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

We have been discussing it. There is not enough info in the individual plots for the separate. infoboxes. 99.156.9.185 (talk) 17:54, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
