Image edit

Why would the image of the film poster say "Now a major motion picture"??? This appears to be a cover of a re-released paperback of the book. — Wyliepedia 09:57, 20 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

That's a good point. We should find a better image. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 16:34, 20 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
I restored the previous image, which was unambiguously a film poster. I also removed a few mentions about the trailer, as we don't usually report such minor details. If there's consensus that it should be reported, then that's fine, but I usually try to avoid getting into that kind of overly detailed history of the film's marketing.

@PKDASD: can you explain why you prefer the new image? It seems to from the book, not a film poster. If necessary, we can hold an RfC or get input from WikiProject Film, but I really hope that won't be necessary. It seems common sense to use the old image, which is unambiguously a film poster.

I'm attempting to obtain the actually poster that goes with the film. I do see your point and if you feel that graphic is inappropriate I'll replace it. Didn't think t was such a big deal.PKDASD (talk) 19:32, 21 April 2014 (UTC) BTW the book cover at least showed the 3 main characters in the film. That was my motivating factor. I did change it back, so you can rest easy.PKDASD (talk) 19:44, 21 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

It's not critically important, but it didn't really fit. I'm sure we can find a film poster that features the cast. If not now, then after the official theatrical release. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 21:33, 21 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Disruptive edits in September 2016 edit

I'm going to copy here what I said on User talk:73.30.3.148: Looking through the history of Cold in July (film), it looks like your edit is more-or-less reverting the article to a version written by me in January 2015. I have made many improvements to the article since this time, and I would appreciate it if would stop disruptively reverting back almost two years' worth of work that I put into this article. I can see no reason to revert back to January 2015. I think that this "deep revert" would require some kind of discussion on the talk page – or, at the very least, some kind of explanation.
