This article sucks. One expects to find a detailed description of the now famous hardware & software facilities and the copious talent, which have been brilliantly exploited in the making of films like [[Avatar (2009 film)|Avatar]]. But one only finds rubbish. It's a pity. --[[User:AVM|AVM]] ([[User talk:AVM|talk]]) 17:13, 17 October 2011 (UTC)

Untitled

I'm not sure about the phrase "Wingnut Entertainment". On my favourite search engine the first 26 non-sponsored hits didn't seem to include it. Hit 27 was this article. But "Wingnut Films", yes, plenty. Robin Patterson 30 June 2005 07:02 (UTC)

NPOV

I do not think this article conforms very well to NPOV in many respects, especially this line:

Weta may be going through a re-branding exercise, having spawned new divisions such as Weta Tenzan Chain Maille, Weta Collectibles, Weta Publishing.....with more in the pipeline.

This article needs a good bit of work to fall into NPOV and requires a lot more citing for many of the claims made in the article. --Ihmhi (talk) 10:34, 7 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Evangelion Live Action?

http://neon-genesis-evangelion.moviechronicles.com/?rd=1

Some of the articles on here seem to indicate that Weta are involved with the live action version of Evangelion. I can't find anything about it on Weta's own site though. :( —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.13.228.132 (talk) 18:08, 3 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

They moved the pictures around on Weta's site so they are pretty much harder to find but some are still there. Even with concept art made, would it say that the movie is in it's planning stages/pre-production but at the same time in Development Hell? IF so it is still Wetas work and it should be mentioned on the page. There is even a video interview with Ben Wooten and Richard Taylor talking only about the Eva project if someone needs a source for it to be in the article.

Some "description" of a workshop

This article sucks. One expects to find a detailed description of the now famous hardware & software facilities and the copious talent, which have been brilliantly exploited in the making of films like Avatar. But one only finds rubbish. It's a pity. --AVM (talk) 17:13, 17 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
