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? Alphius (talk) 16:47, 22 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

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]
