Simply bad

This page has been marked with the "reads like a review" (and a very bad one at that) tag since November of last year. Why hasn't it been fixed?

I just watched the last half of the movie on WOWWOW and came here looking for an article on the original novel, to see how the movie differed from the original story (which I read years ago in English. Japan sinks completely and the book ends with a scene depicting survivors on a foreign ship IIRC). Instead of encyclopedia-quality pages on the original novel and movie adaptations, I find this crap.

This page should be renamed "Japan Sinks (film)" and divided into two sections, one for the 1973 film and one for the remake *OR* one page made for each film (probably not worth doing at this point).

I'll wait a few days and if no one voices any objections, I'll start making changes in line with the above myself.

Also, factual error: in the 2006 movie, Onodera (the Tsuyoshi Kusanagi character...using the actors names in the synopsis is NOT acceptable) does NOT leave for the UK as planned. He volunteers to take a submersible down and arm the bombs set along the undersea fault. Whoever wrote that he escaped to the UK either didn't really watch the movie or fell asleep at the end.

This is NOT acceptable. --RJCraig 13:48, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
