rumour

edit

There was a rumour that a picture of a topless woman had been inserted into this film, as it had been in the original Rescuers film, during the beginning flight scene in Australia. The rumor has been proven false, since each frame of the film was scrutinized during production using the CAPS system.

This doesn't prove no such picture exits in the movie, as it can still be inserted in post-production. --Abdull 21:15, 14 January 2006 (UTC) I saw a picture in the movie. The rumor is true! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.138.46.102 (talk) 16:21, 17 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

What's the point of the trivia?

edit

I'm not going to delete it but, what's the point of it? Might as well list other films released in the same year. Eratticus

I have no idea, and no such reluctance to delete. Jgm 06:44, 4 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

I went in and changed the section about how the rescuers was disneys firts animated film to not have musical numbers which is infactual since the black cauldron was the first.

Technically, Fantasia was the first and The Rescuers, if you mean the original 1977 classic as opposed to its sequel, did have 4 full-blown songs, two minor songs and two reprises.

I think this might be incorrect "This is the first and only film in the Disney animated features canon to take place on the continent of Australia.". Finding Nemo was on the Disney animated features canon list and took place on the Australian continent.

Truth be told, Nemo is not in the canon: movies made by Disney/Pixar do not count, only those made primarily by Walt Disney Feature Animation. Actually, it is Disney's second animated feature of any kind that is set in Australia. --Slgrandson (page - messages - contribs) 22:57, 24 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Who is that guy in the picture?

edit

First of all... who is that guy in the picture? Second... why is that not what the caption says it is? And third... in case (and I mean "in case") its neither Cody or his VA... why is it there? Ralf Loire 16:44, 9 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Beats me. It's admittedly been a while since I saw the movie, but I don't recall it being that photorealistic...-- NordicStorm (t/c) 18:16, 10

edit

Were the animals that McLeach captured ever rescued? 64.105.136.151 (talk) 15:53, 7 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

People actually think up questions like that? Hondo77 (talk) 22:06, 7 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
I haven't seen the movie for a long time. So could you stop being a jerk and answer my question please? 64.105.136.151 (talk) 16:27, 21 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
They weren't rescued on-screen. Hondo77 (talk) 02:15, 22 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
The giant eagle in the movie can't be a "golden eagle" if we are assuming it has to be native to australia. Most likely it would be a Wedge-Tailed Eagle. Just a though 198.22.236.230 (talk) 19:03, 8 May 2009 (UTC)Reply
Can we get perhaps a reference/source on that topic? It might be moot entirely considering the SIZE of the eagle in question, I don't think any eagle does or did exist of that size. Evondral (talk) 02:03, 14 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

redirect

edit

would someone mind having the phrase "The Rescuers 2" redirect to this? currently the first term for searching that is the Little Mermaid. this article isn't even on the first page of the search, though there is occasional mention of it in the description of other articles. it would make things easier for dopes like me who forgot the full name of this movie. thanks! 128.61.45.136 (talk) 05:38, 25 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

made-up edits

edit

The Cast section of the article features direct and plot references to alleged spin-offs for both The Rescuers and The Rescuers Down Under that, as far as I can tell, never existed. These references are unsupported by any citation and, I believe, completely made-up. It's been years since I've edited Wikipedia (under a different IP address); so while I will attempt to remove the incorrect information, I am also adding this note for future reference. 50.182.111.133 (talk) 22:58, 29 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Well done. Thanks for catching and fixing those problems! --McDoobAU93 23:05, 29 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Plot

edit

@Hondo77 Please discuss your plot trim here. MOS:FILMPLOT recommends between 400-700 words, your edit took the plot below that to 222 from 642. Indagate (talk) 07:23, 3 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

As I mentioned in my last revision, per WP:PLOTSUMNOT "A plot summary is not a recap. It should not cover every scene and every moment of a story." The previous summary tried to do both. And as I also mentioned, my edit should not just have been reverted without substantive comments. Per WP:DOREVERT, "The main purpose of reversion is to undo vandalism or other disruptive edits." My edit was neither. If someone thought that an important plot point should not have been removed then they could have added it back in and it could have been discussed (if necessary), along with alternatives in WP:PARTR. No reversion of my plot change gave a substantive reason other than the previous summary wasn't too big. Size is not the issue. There was *way* too much detail in the previous summary. Hondo77 (talk) 11:04, 3 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Regardless of anything, you shouldn't have reverted 6 times, especially without starting any discussion etc. Please read WP:BRD.
I've not seen the film recently so can't edit plot really but 222 is very low for a 77min film, MOS:FILMPLOT. It can be reduced a little and stay within the recommended range but not as much as you did. Indagate (talk) 11:13, 3 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
If you feel that there are important plot points that were left out, you are free to add them. Hondo77 (talk) 13:09, 3 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
