[edit] Cast

• Why isn't Wilbur listed in the vioce actors yet? Don't tell me he's not going to speak!

• Presumably Wilbur's voice just hasn't been announced yet. tregoweth 06:18, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

• Wiblur's voice was heard in the TV spot that appeared during the commercials in-between the 2006 Kids' Choice Awards, but still hasn't been announced yet.

• Due to the evidence in the TV spot that Wilbur is a young piglet in this version, his voice has been revealed to be Dominic Scott Kay.

"A remake of the animated film"...

Wait a minute. On the page for this project over at http://www.walden.com, there's an interview where they state this new adaptation definitely -isn't- going to be a remake of the Hanna-Barbera version. What was the source for this "remake" statement?

(Wasn't the HB 'toon just a 'remake' of the book?)

• Removed it, since it's unsourced and probably from the same editor who said the 1973 version was "true to the original" (which it most certainly was not). Danny Lilithborne 22:06, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Release date

• December 20 is the US release date, but on IMDB it says the film will be released in Australia on December 9 (http://imdb.com/title/tt0413895/releaseinfo). Shouldn't that be the release date listed, seeing that would be the premiere? Minidictionary 12:04, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Build A Bear Wilbur?

Mumble was a HUGE hit and is no longer available at Build A Bear. Will Wilbur follow?

[edit] Huh?

"Music by Drowning Pool was not included on the film's soundtrack CD, titled Charlotte's Web: Music from the Motion Picture."

Can someone strike this sentence? Why *would* that be included on the soundtrack? 207.111.160.28 15:34, 20 December 2006 (UTC)Ken

It's kind of an artifact from the article's history. Someone wrote that it would contain a song by Drowning Pool, but I read the list of tracks on both Charlotte's Web CDs and it's not there. I'll delete it. Karen | Talk | contribs 17:02, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, I thought it was vandalism, but didn't want to edit it myself in case I appeared to be doing the same.  :)) 207.111.160.28 15:33, 21 December 2006 (UTC)Ken

[edit] Location

There were other places that it was fillemed like the new studios at the melbourne doclands and on the stand in the beachside suburb of williamstown.

[edit] Headline text

[edit] Article Mistakes

The article points out the following, which I believe to be mistakes:

• The 2006 Fern is about seven... The character, at no point in the film, come across as being only seven years old. Dakota Fanning is thirteen years old. Is there any citation for the character being only seven in the film? I'd like to see it because if Fern is supposed to be seven then it was poorly portrayed in the film.
• Wilbur receives no marching band performance in celebration of his fame in the 2006 version. Yes, he does. As the camera pans up from the crowd to the stage were the fair governors are presenting Wilbur with his special medal, the band can be easily seen beginning their performance. Granted, the film does not show them actually marching.
• Henry Fussy is left out of the 2006 film. What? No, he isn't! He is played by Julian O'Donnell. --Bentonia School 15:17, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Another mistake I saw was that The lightning storm was left out of the 2006 version. According to the commercials and trailers I saw, there IS a thunderstorm in the movie; it occurs when Wilbur is born. --Wile E2005 19:51, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Charlotte's Web 2006.jpg

Image:Charlotte's Web 2006.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
