Thanks

[edit]

Hi, Betty. You corrected a mistake I made in the article The Birth of a Nation. thank you for that. (You may like to reconsider the tone of your edit summary, though. We all make mistakes.) JBW (talk) 20:41, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please accept my apologies. I buried the family cat earlier, so not a good day. Betty Logan (talk) 21:00, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I would like to express my condolences for the passing of your family cat. --Cyfal (talk) 22:01, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Me too. Unfortunately I've been through that experience several times. JBW (talk) 13:10, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ne Zha 2 gross

[edit]

Hi Betty, it seems like BOM (but also The Numbers) doesn't have all the data for the film box office, China and international. For China we already use this source in the highest grossing film article, but in the Ne Zha 2 page they use other sources: Deadline says that the movie made $50M outside the home market, and Deadline is a reliable source, but what about the other one, that says $60M outside the home market, is it reliable and we can use it? We should not use BOM for now, they clearly stopped updating mostly of the data--Luke Stark 96 (talk) 12:39, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I am out right now but I will take a closer look at this later. Caixin looks reputable. Betty Logan (talk) 15:02, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Caixin looks reputable to me. Several other outlets are quoting their analysis such as this. Also, the Caixin article was published around 10 days after the Deadline article, so they are consistent with each other. Another $10 million after another week in play seems very realistic to me. Betty Logan (talk) 22:37, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Ok good, I will update the highest grossing films page tomorrow with the updated data--Luke Stark 96 (talk) 22:46, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Highest-grossing films adjusted for inflation

[edit]

Hi Betty, do we have the data to update the table with the 2024 inflation?--Luke Stark 96 (talk) 13:17, 20 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The inflation index is usually updated in the 2nd quarter so it should be out now. I will look into it this weekend and update the chart. Betty Logan (talk) 14:39, 20 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Pirates of the Caribbean 5 future

[edit]

Why you delate my updated? 79.52.193.19 (talk) 06:37, 22 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Because 1) you are a sock; 2) you added unsourced content. Betty Logan (talk) 15:34, 22 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

British New Wave/Kitchen Sink Realism

[edit]

Yes, I think I conflated the latter with the former. The latter pseudogenre has a wider breadth. Could we perhaps discuss the whole list together for both pages? For example, I've always been under the impression that Darling was BNW, not just KSR. (I still need to see this one; it's on the queue!)

I love a bevy of the films I've seen thus far, so I've always had great interest in this. But I guess the definitions of each one, which even the Wikipedia article highlighted the blurred lines, is where I lost the plot.

There are several titles during the 1958–1964 period which I wonder about. (I give that year padding surrounding Look Back in Anger and Billy Liar, because I do think a few 1964 titles and maybe one 1958 title are borderline. There are definitely "cusp films" imo.) And the troublesome thing is, I feel like the interpretation or sources pool are conflating it as bad as I sometimes.

Film Forum and some corresponding British venue had a summary and list closer to the one I expanded, including those that bled over. I think that led to some further confusion for me. Sorry if I'm talking all jagged here. I am exhausted. Hope to hear back from you. Feel free to reply on my page if you prefer, or just here.

Happy to discuss, but discussions about specific articles should take place at the article talk page o other editors can participate. Betty Logan (talk) 23:53, 21 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

2025 re-release

[edit]

Hi, about your Guinness sandbox, I just want to let you know that not only Jaws had a re-release, but also The Sound of Music, with $1,601,237 earned so far, and on October 3 Avatar 2 will have a re-release. And also I would like to know your opinion about this, when you have time, thanks--Luke Stark 96 (talk) 13:28, 23 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Replied at the other discussion. It will update the Guinness chart, although my focus has been on Jaws given that it has almost certainly broken back into the top 10. Betty Logan (talk) 14:28, 23 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. Yes I saw that, so when we will update the table next year Star Wars 7 won't be in the top 10 anymore--Luke Stark 96 (talk) 14:32, 23 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Web 1.0 on Millennials article

[edit]

I think it makes sense to include Web 1.0 in the lead since it would clarify the difference between what Millennials had (dial-up Internet, static webpages) vs the more robust Internet Gen Z kids had in 2008 (YouTube videos, broadband).--Jw00231 (talk) 18:19, 25 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It's WP:JARGON and irrelevant. Betty Logan (talk) 19:37, 25 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
