The Defenders GA

Hey there, I have just re-nominated The Defenders (miniseries) for GA. You said you would be willing to review it again at the end of the first review so just letting you know in case you are still interested and have the time. If not then I'm sure someone else will pick it up soon. Thanks, adamstom97 (talk) 04:28, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Adamstom.97, I've claimed it. It might be a few days before I get to it because I'm reviewing the Child (Star Wars) and Sega at the moment, but I will try really hard to get those done quickly. JOEBRO64 11:19, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
All good, no rush. Thanks! - adamstom97 (talk) 11:39, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Adamstom.97, I was just curious. After I review The Defenders, would you mind reviewing Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I for me? I'm in the midst of rewriting it as we speak (in draftspace, it should be in the main article soon), so I should have it ready for GAN shortly. If you can't or don't want to, it's completely fine. JOEBRO64 14:55, 15 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I could do that for you, just let me know when you've nominated it. - adamstom97 (talk) 15:43, 15 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Just a heads-up that I responded to your comments. Thanks, Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs talk 17:13, 15 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You've reverted "Death Of A Nation

There's no reason for you to delete this film from the list !!!SAaphIrEblUE (talk) 16:12, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

SAaphIrEblUE, look at the criteria on the talk page. There aren't any sources (besides the Metacritic rating) that refer to it as the worst film of all time. JOEBRO64 16:14, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
TheJoebro64 Besides Metacritic, there's also Variety, Rotten Tomatoes The GuardianSAaphIrEblUE (talk) 16:19, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
SAaphIrEblUE, but they don't refer to it as the worst film of all time. It therefore does not meet the criteria for inclusion. Don't get me wrong, the film is dreadful, but it can't be included in the article because the sources do not exist. There was also consensus against including it in the past. JOEBRO64 16:22, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Template:TheJoebro64 Death of a Nation was nominated for four Golden Raspberry Awards — annual parody awards also known as the "Razzies" — and won two. What then is your basis for a film to be listed in "a worst film list"? ThanksSAaphIrEblUE (talk) 16:29, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
SAaphIrEblUE, it needs to be called the worst film of all time by a variety of sources. The Razzies are an annual show about the films of a specific year. Worst of 2018 =/= worst of all time. See the talk page for more information on the inclusion criteria. JOEBRO64 16:31, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Template:TheJoebro64 By your definition then "Death of a Nation" qualifies as "worst film for 2018" as the heading in the film title (2018) indicates. Razzles is indicated in the main heading as one of the sources used for this criteria. And on what basis did you claimed that "it needs to be called the worst film of all time " when we are talking for the year 2018? (talk) 16:34, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
RogerEbert another movie reviewer, also listed Death Of A Nation as a "shabbily constructed and artistically bankrupt ... D'Souza's usual stew of cherry-picked facts, overt omissions, inept historical reenactments, slanders, innuendos, stuff taken from his earlier movies, shots of him walking pensively through empty areas and clips from other and better movies". He added that the documentary "could well be of service to future historians struggling to make sense of our current madness" refers to entries in Death_of_a_Nation_(2018_film) SAaphIrEblUE (talk) 16:58, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
SAaphIrEblUE, that's not calling it the worst film of all time. I shouldn't need to repeat myself: the article is called "List of films considered the worst", meaning it compiles films that critics have explicitly referred to as "the worst of all time". Not worst of a genre, or worst of a year. Just "the worst" in general. They need to explicitly call it one of the worst films ever. Only one of the sources you cited actually did anything close to that (and even then, it was Metacritic's aggregate score, not a professional critic's opinion). I'm not explaining it again. JOEBRO64 17:01, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
TheJoebro64, What is the basis for it needs to be "the worst film of all time" when the Wiki title is "List of films considered the worst" and NOT "the worst of all time" as you claimed"? And Metacritic already stated that it is last on their list of worst films, and Metacritic is listed as one of the reviewer accepted on Wiki regarding this entry and I quote -"Examples of such sources include Metacritic, Roger Ebert's list of most-hated films, The Golden Turkey Awards, Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide, Rotten Tomatoes, the Stinkers Bad Movie Awards, the cult TV series Mystery Science Theater 3000, and the Golden Raspberry Awards (aka the "Razzies"). "SAaphIrEblUE (talk) 17:10, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
TheJoebro64 Besides Metacritic and Vanity, publications like The A.V. Club, Variety, Chicago Tribune, and The Playlist listed "Death of a Nation" among the worst films of the year.Haaretz's Adrian Hennigan also criticeed the terrible quality of the film.Rotten Tomatoes stated the film holds an approval rating of 0% based on 13 reviews, with an average rating of 1.75/10.On Metacriti the film has a weighted average score of 1 out of 100, based on 8 critics, indicating "overwhelming dislike", while Peter Sobczynski of RogerEbert.com described Death of a Nation as "shabbily constructed and artistically bankrupt ..." Then Hollywood Reporter's Frank Scheck called the documentary "painfully unendurable" and that D'Souza's new film was more "hyperbolic and hysterical" than his past films, particularly with the claim that "Democrats... are merely fascists and Nazis, minus the cool iconography", while Bill Goodykoontz of The Arizona Republic described the documentary as "messy, unintentionally hilarious". These critics sure are credible for calling "Death Of A Nation" as a worst film if not for 2018, then for all times. Appreciate if you refrained from repetitive vandalisms of the entry.Thanks.SAaphIrEblUE (talk) 17:21, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
SAaphIrEblUE, put that wall of text on the article talk page, not mine. I'm not explaining this (again) any further. JOEBRO64 17:24, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion at Sony's Marvel Universe

Hello, User:TheJoebro64. I have began a series of discussion on the Talk:Sony's Marvel Universe page. There are several things that I feel the article could benefit from, and to avoid edit warring, I am taking them there. Cheers m8!--DisneyMetalhead (talk) 00:41, 26 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Doki Doki Panic was or wasn't a Mario prototype

The quote on the Super Mario Bros 2 page is from a book written by someone else that mentions Kohler's 2011 exchange. The article linked on the Super Mario page is the 2011 article written by Kohler about that exact topic. He doesn't say anywhere that Doki Doki was supposed to be a Mario game. All he says is it was a prototype based on Mario gameplay.
