Talk:Cronos (film)

plot

Yes, I know the plot summary isn't all that great, but you can't just copy text from imdb. There have been several versions of this page that use reviews from there. Not allowed. -Freekee 05:38, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

I removed some inaccurate information. Gris never accidentally breaks the statue. A guy sent to find the statue breaks it a little, removing the statue's eye. Gris notices that the statue is hollow because bugs crawl out of the hole where its eye was, which leads him to take the statue from its base. This is when he discovers the device hidden in the base of the statue. Iregretthisname 03:15, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

The plot on here is pretty much entirely filled with incorrect information. However, the only way to really make it make sense and actually follow the plot of the film is to make it much longer and more detaild which for some bizarre reason is a no-no on Wikipedia. Because god forbid a site that is supposed to be a repository of information provide detailed information about something. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C1:B902:4701:9D2B:2762:67AE:75AE (talk) 19:58, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

An encyclopedia with every statement based on a Reliable Source that can be verified, not a "repository of information." 50.111.40.79 (talk) 07:23, 31 October 2022 (UTC)

I've just rewritten the plot. I deliberately did NOT read the summary in question until after I saved it.

Excellent. Thanks! This is a much better summary, and we shouldn't have any more copyvio trouble. -Freekee 21:02, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. I agree with the edits you made.

I'm glad you think so. I can't write all that well myself, but I always know just how to fix everyone else's stuff. *rolls eyes* I can be pretty annoying. :-) -Freekee 03:13, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

What language(s)?

Does the film really combine Spanish and English with large amounts of each? If the film is actually mostly in one language and just available in the other language due to dubbing, please put the film's original language in the info box instead of the original langauge plus the dubbing language.

It was filmed with large helpings of both languages. There are several scenes where Perlman engages in conversations where he speaks English, while the other conversant speaks Spanish. 71.52.46.122 (talk) 14:04, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Cronos (poster).jpg

Image:Cronos (poster).jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 23:40, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
