Director[edit]

Maybe you shouldn't link the director's name to a basketball player who was murdered? 66.146.245.4 (talk) 19:13, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Father Stuart Long[edit]

Wow. This guy has an amazing bio. He may merit a separate Wikipedia article? His obituary: [1]. Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 04:37, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks to User:Rlvaughn for starting an article ... here --> Stuart Long. Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 02:46, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Audience scores[edit]

Please note WP:USERGENERATED audience scores such as those from Rotten Tomatoes and IMDB are not allowed. They need to be removed from this article again. (The article is currently locked, otherwise I'd have done it already.) -- 109.79.168.110 (talk) 14:09, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please note that it needs to be removed from both the intro/lead and the Critical response section. The "Fandango audience" score is exactly the same thing as the Rotten Tomatoes audience score, and like any other web poll it is not a reliable source. -- 109.79.168.110 (talk) 14:10, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Article lock finally expired and I removed the audience scores myself. -- 109.76.196.148 (talk) 14:37, 12 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Budget[edit]

The article listed the budget as $30-40 million. [2] but this was replaced with another source saying it was $4 million. This was done without any explanation. Editors must follow the WP: SIMPLE rules and explain their changes with a meaningful edit summary.

Template:Infobox film clearly states that if sources differ the budget range should be included.

If the new better sources invalidate the earlier sources that needs to be discussed before any reliable sources are excluded. -- 109.79.167.221 (talk) 16:11, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It seems someone[3] entirely misread the previous source of budget [4] which said that Mel Gibson spent $30 million on Passion of the Christ and misinterpreted that as Wahlberg spending that amount on this film. That article never said what this film cost. The other source Filmik.com is not a reliable source and should not have been used as budget reference.

The $4 million budget now listed in the article seems implausibly low but that is what was reported by Variety[5]. -- 109.78.196.150 (talk) 11:55, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
