Untitled

I was planning on rewriting this. BTW: You can't copyright statistics.

...but you can copyright a particular selection of them, or a particular way of expressing them, and the review at the bottom was certainly copyrighted. Anyway, it's all been deleted. Please do rewrite it, but it's best to do that in the privacy of your own computer, and using other sources as well as the IMDb. Thanks. --rbrwr ^± 10:19, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Move page

I was thinking that this page should be moved with F in from capatilized. If nobody opposes within a week then I will move it. Mr. C.C. 06:31, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Obvious 'Trivia'

Is this quote really necessary?

The name of Adam and his girlfriend Eve are a play on Adam and Eve.

It would be okay, except for the fact that it's mentioned twice in the movie. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.72.21.221 (talk) 21:38, 20 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"The plot summary in this article is too long or detailed compared to the rest of the content"

I think the length of the plot is just fine, similar to plots of other films. The problem is there's no other info in the article such such production, trivia or box office details. I guess creating a "Cast" section can be easily done.. What do you think? Thanks Kvsh5 (talk) 08:35, 21 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Categories: Films set in the 1970s/1980s

Seems to me the film was set in the 1960s and 1990s only. Please note the 35-year gap between entering the shelter and coming out (1962-1997). What do you think? Thanks Kvsh5 (talk) 08:38, 21 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It showed sections adam's life and the malt shop/bar upstairs from various points through the 60's, 70's and then skipped to '91, and then the rest of the movie was in 1997. 68.148.100.97 (talk) 04:17, 3 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Character Name

Though solely listed in the credits as "Soda Jerk", Joey Slotnick's character (the Soda Jerk in question) explicitly introduces himself to Adam's parents as "Archbishop Melker" late in the film. Thus, I've added the character's self-applied title and name to the cast list.

just my 2cents worth, but... Joey Slotnick and Dave Foley should have gotten Best Supporting Actor noms... or did they? The other thing i find VERY funny bout this movie; Spacek and Walken.. think about it, actually LIVED during/thru the Cuban Missile Crisis, the early, late 60's etc.. i couldn't help giggle thinking how they BOTH were possibly? perhaps? playing/drawing on their respective parents. 76.218.248.127 (talk) 01:26, 5 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
