[edit] older comments

It may be a most unlikely candidate, but I am hoping that this, one of my first-ever efforts in Wikipedia writing, will finally get a place in this world as a featured article (maybe in time for its 20th anniversary). The film's been overlooked by so many critics and TV networks in recent memory, but still it needs a little touch-up from some serious fans of this movie and the Care Bears.

[edit] Major Edits and Clean Up

I've just started cleaning up this article, removing some glaring grammar errors, and I have been attempting to fix the style errors. The writing needs to meet wikipedia standards. I also removed a lot of NPOV. There was a lot of original research that is not allowed on wikipedia. Wanda5088 10:59, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Also, please remember, just because you can add a lot of material to an article, doesn't necessarily mean you should. For example, there is no need to put the entire production cast into the article. This information is referenced by imdb. Wikipedia is not a database, it is an encyclopedia. Notable cast and crew are usually listed in the article. Seldom, if ever, is the entire production crew.

This article was overflowing with original research. For those who are interested in nominating this article as a featured article, please evaluate the criteria carefully. Rember the article must be well written, comprehensive, factually accurate, neutral, and stable. If you clear up these issues, it would be a much better candidate. The article should be clear and succint. If you are new to wikipedia, read through some other featured articles to get a feel for the writing style. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 129.170.168.39 (talk • contribs) . --Slgrandson 04:44, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Care Bears Movie II is not a prequel to the first movie.

The second movie serves as a prequel to the television series and should be noted as such to clear any confusion.

This movie cannot be a prequel because it's doesn't match up with the first movie.

-In the first movie, The Care Bears know nothing about the Forest of Feelings. -The Care Bears meet the Care Bear Cousins for the first time. -The Care Bear Cousins have blank stomachs. -The Cousins do not know anything outside of the Forest of Feelings. -Noble Heart Horse and True Heart are never seen nor mentioned. -The first movie serves as an origin story for the creation of the Care Bears Cousins and how they joined the Care Bears.

In the second movie:

-All of the cubs grow up together and recieve their tummy symbols at the same time. -There is no hint at the possibility of the Care Bears and the Care Bear Cousins forgetting about each other if there was a linking time span between the first and second movie. -The above serves true for the Cousins losing their symbols and Noble Heart and True Heart simply not existing. -This movie is probably the origin story intended for the Care Bears considering that it coincides with the TV series.

The second movie can be a prequel to the series because of Noble Heart and True Heart. Also, the episode that explains Pleasent and Perfect Panda because True Heart alludes back to what happened in the movie while trying to explain how the pandas were lost. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.189.181.219 (talk • contribs) . --Slgrandson 04:44, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merge of plot with main movie article

Regarding the merge of Plot of Care Bears Movie II: A New Generation with this article, I wholeheartedly support such a move. Why this wasn't in the main article in the first place is something I'd like to know... SchuminWeb (Talk) 05:25, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

It was in the main article in the first place. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 06:48, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Even though I've started to trim it down, I am not really having a good time getting it done. See me at WP:FILMPR tomorrow afternoon and you can give me some advice. --Slgrandson (page - messages - contribs) 02:40, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
