[edit] Requested move

[edit] Cast

On Mikhail Baryshnikov's IMDB profile he isn't listed as appearing in the movie. Is there anywhere that supports his inclusion in the cast list on this article? 77.96.169.248 (talk) 18:17, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Redirect Undone

A user redirected the page to Sex and the City (film), against the above consensus to not move the page. I have also undone the recurring link mishap on Sex and the City main page. Kat Malone (talk) 17:07, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Because of the continued process of editing done on both Sex and the City: The Movie and Sex and the City (film) despite the above discussions, I have retagged both articles with a Merger tag. Please take another look at the content and the reasonings behind the views. Kat Malone (talk) 17:42, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Though I had nothing to do with the move, I believe the "consensus" is outdated and needs to be reopened, if not revoked altogether. It was largely based on IMDb using "The Movie" back in December; it now uses only "Sex and the City (2008)", and even the official credits merely say "Sex and the City". The proper article title should be "Sex and the City (film)", much like for Dreamgirls where Dreamgirls is the stage musical and Dreamgirls (film) is the movie. (That film, of course, is relevant thanks to Jennifer Hudson--who's the main reason I'm interested in this film despite being a heterosexual male who's only seen bits and pieces of the TV series, mainly after sleeping thru baseball games on TBS.) --RBBrittain (talk) 12:35, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

The page should be renamed to Sex and the City (film) as it can now be seen that the film dropped the 'the movie' part. Russell [ Talk ] 14:48, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

I agree with that. LeaveSleaves (talk) 15:49, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Plot veracity

Is there anyway to confirm the truthfulness of the plot? The film is yet to be released and the only way this plot is true is if there has been a leak or if the editor who added it has been to the premier in London. Would it still be alright to keep it before the release of the film? LeaveSleaves (talk) 01:01, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

And what ever happened to the decency of writing a giant SPOILER notice before giving away the whole movie??? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.244.179.245 (talk) 03:22, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

See WP:SPOILER and WP:MOSFILM for reasons. LeaveSleaves (talk) 03:38, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

I think that "consensus" needs to be revisited, too. Though I think it's appropriate to include spoilers, they should be wrapped in the old "Spoiler alert" and "Spoilers end here" tags for the benefit of those who do NOT want to see the spoilers, at least until shortly after the film's release (say, one to three weeks). Wikipedia:Content disclaimer is TWO links away from each article (not one), and many people have already seen the spoilers before they see that; I don't think that's enough notice for the ordinary user. --RBBrittain (talk) 12:41, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

I presume you have gone through guidelines mentioned above. As you can understand adding another spoiler alert within the article conflicts of Wikipedia policy on disclaimers. I would also suggest perusing WP:NCD. LeaveSleaves (talk) 13:06, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Montages

Can some one please make a note of montages in the film theres more then 3 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.250.49.22 (talk) 05:31, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sequel talks

Michael Patrick King has mentioned in statements here and here that he'd be interested in creating a sequel but at no point has there been any official announcement of any kind. So I see no reason to present rumors, speculations or mere interests in the article at this point. LeaveSleaves (talk) 15:20, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
