Talk:Flatliners

Plot

This is my first full plot addition to a film article, and I could use another set of eyes to look it over. I can't seem to get it down much further without removing what I think are important plot points, but it still seems a touch long. Much thanks, Fractalchez (talk) 20:31, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Reference in Pop Culture

I removed reference to the use of the phrase "today is a good day to die", as the film "Flatliners" is not the first time this phrase has been used. —Preceding unsigned comment added by DFS (talk • contribs) 16:39, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
