Rio film series

Can you make a Rio (film series) article? For the Highest-grossing animated franchises and film series. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DCF94 (talk • contribs) 15:10, 5 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Let's wait for the third one.--Carniolus (talk) 23:15, 5 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If the 2 films reaches $1 billion would you be willing to make the article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by DCF94 (talk • contribs) 19:51, 16 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If the sequel does well then a third film would be inevitable, so yeah we probably would. Koala15 (talk) 00:16, 17 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

There would have to be solid documentation in reliable sources that Rio will become a franchise. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball; we can't just assume that a third movie will be made based on the success of the first two (we aren't even sure if Rio 2 will be successful or not as it hasn't even been released). I would wait until it's officially set in stone that Rio will turn into a franchise or film series before considering to create such an article. Mz7 (talk) 21:16, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

YES, a franchise needs more informations, BUT a film series needs to have at least two films. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DCF94 (talk • contribs) 00:12, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Point taken, but frankly, all the information that could possibly be contained in a film series article can already be covered the articles about the 2 films. There's very little necessity. Most sources either document the production of one film or the other. This isn't Star Wars or Harry Potter (film series). Perhaps, if more information comes about in the future that would warrant a film series article, I would support it. As of now, I do not think such an article is necessary or suitable.

Released?

Is this film released yet? The article states that the film was released internationally on March 20, 2014, but I can't find any reliable sources on the web proving that besides IMDb. It looks as if April 11 is the international release date... someone please clarify. Mz7 (talk) 04:11, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved

– I've added a reference to the official press release which confirms its international release date. --Carniolus (talk) 12:43, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

And it's released in the United States since yesterday. --Allen ^{(talk to me! / ctrb / E-mail me)} 20:32, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Page Split

I think we need to create a page just like this for the Rio film series. Anyone care to comment ?? DtwipzB chat 15:35, 16 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There was already a discussion about this in the above section. I think that consensus was that we should wait for the third film.--Carniolus (talk) 11:49, 20 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Possible sequel

He lied. Carlos Saldanha was just goofing off with us. There's actually not going to be a Rio 3 sequel tonight, because of its unknown release date and it's an April Fool's Day prank. Don't worry, there's more than just the Rio series to explore! WikiWithMe (talk) 15:52, 13 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Big Boss's fate

Some anonymous users keep changing the plot to make it so Big Boss escaped unscathed, when actually, he ended up eaten by an anaconda. Can someone please help straighten this out? Brian K. Tyler (talk) 01:29, 1 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

If you want a content change, it's up to you to convince those opposing you that your version is better. No one cares what you think it should be (nor what anyone else thinks it should be). Make logical arguments based on reliable secondary sources and Wikipedia policies and guidelines. If you cannot gain consensus for your change, it doesn't happen.
