Comment: Press releases are not 'independent' sources, and do not show that a subject is notable. Also, reviews used to show that a subject has been 'taken note of' are expected to be from professional reviewers who are published in sources with editorial oversight, not from a reviewer who solicits review requests and is not part of the 'staff' of the publishing site. A review of a film by an 'amateur' reviewer does not show notability. Reventtalk 20:55, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
- Comment: You cannot cite IMDB here (though you can link to it at the end), see WP:IMDB for why.What you must show is coverage of this film in professional media. See WP:Notability (film). MatthewVanitas (talk) 21:50, 19 September 2014 (UTC)
