Since when is this considered a comedy? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.202.25.170 (talk) 03:44, 5 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Who cares what Hulk Hogan thinks? He is not Roger Ebert. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.150.18.209 (talk) 14:53, 6 August 2010 (UTC)Reply
David J. Hogan has nothing to do with Hulk Hogan. Hint: Hulk Hogan's real name is Terry Gene Bollea. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 08:12, 22 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

budget edit

Listening to the DVD commentary last night, producer Jon Davison says the budget was exactly $660,000. I believe he said $400,000 was put up by United Artists, $200,000 by Roger Corman (who was originally supposed to put up $400,000 but changed his mind), and $60,000 by a Japanese actress whose name I do not recall.

Any way to cite this direct, audible quote from the producer himself?203.185.242.56 (talk) 15:12, 27 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

Shouldn't be an issue. I'd recommend the reference read along the lines of "Audio Commentary, Piranha DVD". If there's been more than one DVD release, including the year of the release would probably be a good idea as well, along with any other specific identifying information that comes to mind. See Godfellas for an example of an article that uses an audio commentary as a reference. Cheers! DonIago (talk) 15:28, 27 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
