Talk:Treasure Island (1988 film)

English Version

I happen to have an English version of this movie, called "Return to Treasure Island." I have wondered what the film was from, but I would have never thought Russia.

I can't believe no one had added this information to the article for over a year. Anyway, I added it in. The American film is 34 minutes shorter than the Russian one. I wonder what they cut? Esn (talk) 22:02, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Many songs, I guess. --Winterheart (talk) 19:39, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

I have watched both the English and Russian versions of this film, and I can confirm that:

The live action segments were cut.

The character cards were cut.

Some dialogue was changed.

Some various Russian text was changed (although I think they lazily left some in)

And the characters were re-dubbed, with some "so bad it's good" voice acting. Waylon (was) (here) 17:25, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

Me too! Wikipedia only has 3 paragraphs at all about this version of the movie (including the one in a disambiguation page.) It doesn't have any live action. 125.238.225.91 (talk) 04:54, 20 March 2016 (UTC)

Yep alot of songs. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.157.85.13 (talk • contribs)

Lede

I removed the mention of and comparison to "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" from the second sentence. "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" seems tangential at best to the subject of this article; Treasure Island was not attempting to do anything similar in use of animation and live sequences (which of course as a concept dates back to the silent era). The themes of the films have no close relationship. I didn't see any reason to talk about this unrelated film in the lede of the article about the Kievnauchfilm "Treasure Island". -- Infrogmation (talk) 20:20, 11 June 2022 (UTC)

Everyone on this page.

please DO NOT add the category as a "meme" MissingWikia (talk) 07:21, 21 August 2022 (UTC)

Right, it is not obvious the production crews knew about each other and it isn't the first time live action was combined with animation in a movie. Researcher (Hebrew: חוקרת) (talk) 08:14, 21 August 2022 (UTC)

i know, they were like making memes about Dr. Livesey because of his nature, i saw someone putting the singing puffer fish on the stupid invaders page and they completely removed it. I was thinking that adding a "meme" in the categories would make me worried about Vandalism on this page. so i let it go. MissingWikia (talk) 16:31, 21 August 2022 (UTC)

Ukrainian not Soviet

The country should be listed as Ukraine or Soviet Ukraine. The current listing is homogenizing and denies Ukrainian cultural sovereignty. 142.181.232.9 (talk) 21:34, 17 October 2022 (UTC)

It's a fake, there were no such country as "Ukraine" / "Soviet Ukraine" in 1988: List of countries by population in 1989

The real world history does not "deny cultural sovereignty", it just tells the truth. The Colosseum was built by the Roman Empire, not the Roman Italy province.

     Are we going to go through every article on anything made in the Soviet Union  and update specify which of the 21 republics something was made in?

Yes sounds like a good plan to me. 142.181.232.9 (talk) 3:38, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

• Some scenes are similar to scenes from other cartoons. For example, so called Dr. Livesey's walk is in the American cartoon The Ducktators (1942)! Central figure is also a gigachad, the direction of movement is also "to the right". This is not my WP:OR. Just found this out today from the forums. 77.87.206.237 (talk) 01:43, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
