[edit] Movie title

The title for the movie is debated. On the IMDb the film is entitled "Spiceworld" - as it is in their official biography (Real Life: Real Spice) (1997). On various posters the film is also called "Spiceworld". However the movie is also called "Spiceworld: The Movie" on the UK DVD cover as well as on on Amazon and HMV. Its also called "Spiceworld: The Movie" on the girls official world tour programme.

As the group's second album and their world tour are both called "Spiceworld", I named the article "Spiceworld: The Movie" to avoid confussion. Rimmers 04.44 Mar 2006 (UTC)

  • Should probably be moved to Spiceworld (movie) to make it more consistant with naming conventions on wikipedia.--Isotope23 18:29, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
No I disagree because the movie is called Spiceworld: The Movie... Rimmers 02:56, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
Moved per [1] and IMDB profile showing movie title as only "Spiceworld" Batman2005 19:30, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
I have moved the article because Wikipedia's naming conventions for films is to use 'film' and not movie'. The JPStalk to me 22:35, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
Personally, I think this article should be called Spiceworld: The Movie as that was its original title when released and is also on the DVD cover and on the new "10th Anniversary Edition" version of the DVD. [2] - ǀ Mikay ǀ 16:44, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] To do list

Here's a list of additions I'm going to be making in the near future:

  • Plot
  • Awards
  • DVD/VHS releases
  • Reviews

Sounds like a plan--hottie 14:27, 14 March 2006 (UTC)


[edit] PLOT?!

Yeah, really. Like, before anything else. I particularly enjoy that we've got an uber-complete cast and crew listing, and not a word about what the hell actually happens in the movie -- information which, not having seen it, I'd especially appreciate.20:25, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I know nothing more about the movie now than before I checked it out. 84.217.108.129 19:23, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Plot

I added in a plot, sort of. There really isn't much of one, to be honest. I actually like the movie -- it's much more funny, in my opinion, than one might assume. But the plot summary I wrote gives you a fairly good idea of what to expect from the movie, I think. If anyone wants to add to it, they can go crazy. I also moved the critical reception to its own section. - Lorettagrace

[edit] Hugh Laurie???

Can anyone tell me where he is in the movie???71.9.38.84 07:15, 16 February 2007 (UTC)2/15/07 Trix

Hugh Laurie is in part of the movie where everyone is talking about stereotypes, and Baby is asking why everyone thinks she so innocent, and Sporty brings up the fact that she 'got this dead cute little smile' and that she can get away with anything. The man (in the 'dream sequence' that follows) who is trying to find 'the murderer' and points the finger at "Father Conan Murphy!" THAT's Hugh Laurie. Hope I was helpful!

[edit] Requested move

The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the proposal was that Spiceworld now redirects to Spice World, which is a disambig of 4 choices. The album is now in Spiceworld (album). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 11:06, 21 November 2007 (UTC)


The article Spice World currently redirects to Spiceworld. Since there is a disambiguation hat on this article, it seems silly to do it that way. See WP:RM as well. - Revolving Bugbear (formerly Che Nuevara) 22:06, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

Seems that a lot of sources use either form to refer to the album or the movie (or the video game). http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120185/releaseinfo#akas includes alternate titles for the movie as "Spiceworld" (Spain / UK) and "Spiceworld: The Movie" (Finland). Some sources also use "Spice World" for the album e.g. here and here. Maybe what's really needed at Spice World is a disambiguation page? Ewlyahoocom 02:58, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
That solution would also be amenable to me. - Revolving Bugbear 13:03, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
  • Support original proposal. movie is more prominent than the album. also, weak support for a disamb, but i can't see what that would achieve more than a note at the top of each article about the other (film or album) Bungalowbill 16:02, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
  • rename the album to Spiceworld (album), keep the film at Spice World (film), dabify either Spiceworld or Spice World, with the other redirecting to the dab. 132.205.99.122 19:42, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
    • Per WP:NAME, there's no reason to have either of them appended with dab-parentheticals, since they have different spellings. Hats will do just fine. - Revolving Bugbear 20:25, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
      • Except it's been shown above that both spellings are used. 132.205.99.122 19:18, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
