Editing Guidelines Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article: If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film) For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films) When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references. Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film. Article upgrading needed: You can help! WP:IA   Stub to Start-Class Upgrading Instructions for Films Note that instructions for articles on other types of film topics within the scope of WikiProject Films are currently under development. To contribute in upgrading this stub article to Start class, the following requirements must be met: Significant intro (list the title, alternate titles, year released, director, actors starring in the film, summary of headings, etc.) Film infobox ({{infobox film}}) Picture: Consult WikiProject Free Images for freely released images from a film shoot, opening, or other relevant free image. Non-free and unlicensed images are to be avoided if at all possible, but if used should include a detailed fair use rationale. (An image is not required for start class if unavailable.) Plot summary Include cast and crew information. At least two other developed sections of information (production, reception (including box office figures), awards and honors, themes, differences from novel or TV show, soundtrack, sequels, DVD release, etc.) Categories (by year, country, language, and genre(s))  Helpful links: WP:BETTER, WP:LEAD, WP:REF, WP:WAF Once this article has fulfilled these requirements, the film can be reassessed to Start class and this template will be removed automatically.

[edit] Remade?

IMDb says this was remade as a TV series [1]: what's going on? --Phil | Talk 14:26, Oct 28, 2004 (UTC)

There was a TV series called Rasen, but it was more of a sequel to the Ring: Final Chapter series than a remake of the novel/movie. Just you wait until I finish my overall article on the Ringu cycle; all will be made clear. - Nat Krause^(Talk!) 19:31, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Article focus

This article should decide if it wants to be about the novel or the movie or both. There also exists Rasen (novel) at present. - Nat Krause^(Talk!) 19:31, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

I fixed it. It appears that somebody tried to split the Rasen article into 2 articles- one about the book, and one about the movie. But they seem to have quit half way through, so both articles ended up having information about both the movie, and the book. -MentosC 19:47, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. I was thinking that, since the movie was so unpopular, and therefore obscure, this article (about the movie) should probably move to Rasen (film), leaving Rasen to be either a disambiguation page or the new location of the article on the book.—Nat Krause^(Talk!) 01:52, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Confusion about Ryuji

The article mentions things like "Ryuji Takayama's wife" and "Ryuji Takayama's family," but Ryuji was a single man in all the installments, and his family was never shown. Anyone care to elaborate?
