Contest PROD

WP:NFF is secondary to WP:GNG and does nor supplant it. In this instance, there are many sources available to establish general notability. This serves the project and the readers well. Bonkers The Clown (Nonsensical Babble) 13:37, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A film that's still over 2 years from hitting the theaters? Whatever...your right to contest though I guess. --Onorem♠Dil 13:45, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Sure is :) But if you like, you can take it to AfD Bonkers The Clown (Nonsensical Babble) 14:00, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I do know the process. Thanks. I'm still looking for sources. I don't think what is currently present is enough to satisfy GNG. --Onorem♠Dil 14:03, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Truckers

Considering both that Anand Tucker had originally been going to direct DreamWorks Animation's adaptation of Truckers, which is a Terry Pratchett novel, and that he is now directing this film (which is apparently partially based on a Terry Pratchett novel), is it possible that the two projects were merged?

Justin Timberlake making music

Can the fact JT's contributing music to the film be added? The source here states: "Justin Timberlake has signed on to write and perform new music for the upcoming DreamWorks Animation movie Trolls, based on the iconic toy franchise, according to The Hollywood Reporter. In addition, Timberlake will also serve as the film's executive music producer – and voice one of the film's troll protagonists." -- Joseph Prasad (talk) 01:38, 6 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Soundtrack

I've redirected Trolls (soundtrack) to this article for now, but given the artists involved, a standalone article is highly likely. Feel free to expand the redirect whenever appropriate! ---Another Believer (Talk) 03:41, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I think this soundtrack is amazing Trollsmryoungbroppy (talk) 20:36, 29 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

jukebox musical?

should this film be considered a jukebox musical? I mean, it incorporates myriad public domain songs (I even spotted Gorillaz' "Clint Eastwood" in one scene). Visokor (talk) 17:55, 22 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Reception

That section is not fully updated because 46.5 million and 104.8 million do not add up to 162.3 million. --97.113.114.59 (talk) 23:48, 10 November 2016 (UTC)Evan Kalani Opedal[reply]

The Rotten Tomatoes Score For Trolls Has Gone up To 75% With 114 Reviews 207.172.180.75 (talk) 21:54, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. JTP (talk • contribs) 03:13, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Critical Reception

Why are we saying that the film received positive reviews when Metacrtic indicated mixed or average reviews (56 out of 100), and Rotten Tomatoes indicates very lukewarm reviews (6.2/10)--Joef1234 (talk) 04:51, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed that synthesis since it should not be there.--Carniolus (talk) 11:07, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

box office

On December 30, Trolls did not make $332 yet. It says on box office mojo. 75.172.36.110 (talk) 20:08, 2 January 2017 (UTC)Evan Kalani Opedal[reply]

McElroy Brothers in sequel

Is there a way to add a section to talk about the McElroy Brothers petitioning to be in the sequel in a way that doesn't disrupt the normal flow of the page? A constant edit war over the casting seems unreasonable, and there's no reason to assume one way or the other about speculative casting. Alphabagel (talk) 02:10, 26 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

My theory as to why Justin Timberlake was cast

So, Justin Timberlake played Artie in Shrek 3 (and was supposed to do so again in Shrek 4, but was unavailable). And also, Trolls director Mike Mitchell directed Shrek 4. Did Mike Mitchell sign on to direct Shrek 4 before or after Justin Timberlake was deemed unavailable? Is Justin one of Mike's favorite singers? Someone do some research on this! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:301:77A0:90:1808:5C9C:FCA8:2F2F (talk) 01:22, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

TV Show Removal

Someone keeps removing sourced information about upcoming TV show. — FilmandTVFan28 (talk) 06:46, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hate to tell you this

Um....Wikipedia....it seemed like MakesTheWikiBetter was right about this film's origin. United Kingdom: The film features British actors – Denmark: The film is based on another toy called a troll doll link here. WikiWorldOne (talk) 05:55, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Mr. Doggy Dog

As you have yet to answer any messages on your own talk page, User:Mr. Doggy Dog, you are being advised here as well that the edits you keep repeatedly inserting (i.e. edit warring) in this article are redundant and bloat the plot uselessly. Redundant means saying the same thing two different ways, and this includes implications. There is no need to say Creek is a fraud when obviously he's a fraud if he (quote) "in exchange for his own survival, has betrayed them all". Also, though less important, we do not need to say Poppy is "Heartbroken" when we already clarify she and the other trolls "Fall into despair". It essentially means the same thing and is just an extra detail. Regardless whether you agree with this or not, please respond so we can get this sorted. You should not edit war by just re-adding the same deleted info over and over, the talk pages are here to discuss things. Thanks! EEBuchanan (talk) 04:20, 16 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Mr. Doggy Dog "King Peppy is the king" and "Princess Poppy is the Princess" and "King Gristle is the King" also count as redundant by the way, since that is quite literally saying the same thing twice. Also the extra sentences about Creek when no other character's summary is more than a sentence long makes the article look clunky and they also contain redundancies and unnecessary info since almost all of it can be seen in the plot summary. Cast lists tell who the characters are, not what they do. That's in the plot. EEBuchanan (talk) 15:22, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

User:Mr. Doggy Dog, Your repeated edits/reverts to Trolls, while they may have been in good faith, are becoming very difficult to distinguish from vandalism. To help other editors understand the reason for these changes, please start using edit summaries for your contributions or explain on the talk page why you want to keep adding the information. You can also take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Please respond. I will not revert the plot if there is a good reason given but I did go ahead and tidy up the cast list. Thanks! EEBuchanan (talk) 15:19, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
