Obviously, this is wrong. Can someone get the correct numbers and fix? Sumnjim 16:42, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I just noticed the same problem. I'm deleting the numbers. That would be better than having these blatantly incorrect ones. Avraham 16:06, 26 March 2007 (UTC) Nevermind, I found the correct (I'm assuming) values in a previous revision. Pasted those in. Avraham 16:09, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Synopsis

This section is written in a very informal tone. His butler played by John Turturro is like Deed's best friend. I'll clean it up next time I see the film if nobody else does. Pnevares 01:04, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's quite awful. 192.154.54.14 18:09, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Use of valid sources

There needs to be a valid source provided for statements of fact. For example: The line "The Wendy's restaurant featured in the film was located in Carmel, NY..." Another statement that would be enhanced by a source would be, "...despite the fact the film claimed the location to be Connecticut. The actual restaurant itself burned down in a grease fire in early 2007, and is in the process of being rebuilt" DDoSAttack 01:22, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Agree that the first one requires a valid source. However, the second one simply needs to be deleted because it is completely irrelevant to a discussion of the film. It's a useless factoid that would be better placed in an article about that Wendy's restaurant...assuming that it is sufficiently notable to warrant an article (it isn't). 71.200.138.188 (talk) 03:33, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:MrDeeds.jpg

Image:MrDeeds.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 this Wikipedia article 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 23:24, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cameo?

This page lists Peter Gallagher's performance as a cameo. Isn't he the main antagonist? 68.206.148.75 (talk) 18:37, 9 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There are many unnecessary links in this wiki, such as steal her purse for mugging and go out for courtship. I know that we're trying to have more internal links, but that's a little unneeded. However, I'm looking for consensus before I remove the links.71.233.22.8 (talk) 16:48, 8 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I just finished watching it. I saw no mention in the credits, but it appeared to be Peter Gallagher playing a younger Preston Blake in a cameo near the end. While on that subject, the real reason why I came here. I see that the article follows the credits by listing George Wallace as the "NAACP" administrator. However, wasn't he actually the United Negro College Fund administrator, Mr. Wood, who keels over when he sees the sum of $40 billion?

92% rating?

Here's the quote from this article:

“

In Variety, it received a rating of 92% based on 152 reviews, with 33 of the reviews being positive.

”

I checked the Variety, but no article said the film received a 92% rating. In addition, this film has received very poor ratings from critics, notably a 21% rating from Rotten Tomatoes. --Chul.Kwon/discuss/contributions 20:32, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
