Age rating

Would be great to have age ratings of 1-2 sites as part of the Wiki entry for a movie. commonsensemedia says 7+ and chesapeakefamily says 10+ https://www.commonsensemedia.org/movie-reviews/onward

brothers

Just curious, has anyone seen a source definitively saying that Pratt and Holland are playing the two brothers? If so, I think that could be addedNaraht (talk) 15:20, 24 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Onward to be released in IMAX

Can we add the detail from the IMAX Instagram page that Onward will be an IMAX release: https://www.instagram.com/p/ByHMt8yHH8g/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.134.70.25 (talk) 11:53, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Mandy Patinkin and Emily Blunt

Someone keeps trying to add the names of Mandy Patinkin and Emily Blunt to the cast. They are not mentioned in the official website or the imdb cast list, or any other "controlled" source I can find. However, they are mentioned in two sources which happen to be wikis. I assume the person trying to add them here is trying to add them wherever he or she can. So don't be fooled. If it doesn't appear in a reputable source, it doesn't belong here. ubiquity (talk) 15:42, 11 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

John Ratzenberger

Uh...could someone find out if John Ratzenberger is voicing anyone in this film? I really want to know. Please. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:401:C401:9850:A88A:898B:4110:2041 (talk) 12:53, 12 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ratzenberger voices a park maintenance worker who has a run-in with Barley near the end of the film 157.131.206.17 (talk) 00:49, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Three Cops.

Maybe I'm not seeing everything in the tweet, but the tweet doesn't appear to include "races" for the Cops and I don't see how individual voice actors are connected to specific cops.Naraht (talk) 21:09, 16 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Plot

Can you remove the plot until it actually comes out in theaters because right now it was only shown in film festivals. 209.237.105.108 (talk) 17:46, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I restored the "Premise" section per WP:FILMPLOT, "Secondary sources must be used for all other cases, such as upcoming films (including those that had sneak previews and only played at film festivals) and lost films, as these would not be considered generally available or verifiable." Pinging Wubzy to convey this guideline. Erik (talk | contrib) ^{(ping me)} 19:24, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks I have been really trying to avoid spoilers on Wikipedia for films I want to see and I remembered that the plot was also reverted on Sonic the Hedgehog (film) because the film was not released in theaters yet in any major countries. Luckily I did not read anything from the plot so hopefully I can watch the film without having it spoiled. 71.34.25.253 (talk) 23:03, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Bomb

is it too early too call it a bomb? Fanoflionking 16:46, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It is far too early, it is effected by events unrelated to the merits of the film, and calling it a "Bomb" is an WP:OR editor opinion unless multiple reliable sources support that conclusion and call it that. Geraldo Perez (talk) 17:24, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, it’s too early to get into bomb territory. It’s been out three days. Sometimes it’s clear after opening weekend that a film will lose money (like Call of the Wild), but that doesn’t seem to be the case here. I haven’t seen any (at least official publication) sites using the term bomb or reporting projected losses, most are saying it’s just disappointing or low. But kids films (especially Pixar) tend to have legs, so it could end up being fine. Definitely need to sit on this one a few weeks. TropicAces (talk) 20:14, 9 March 2020 (UTC)tropicAces[reply]

DYK question

Pinging TropicAces but also asking editors involved here: would anyone mind if I nominated this article for DYK? The hook would probably focus on how it topped the BO but was still one of Pixar's lowest grossing films over this weekend. Kingsif (talk) 19:56, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Onward (film)

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Onward (film)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "btva":

From John Ratzenberger: https://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/John-Ratzenberger/
From Grey DeLisle filmography: "Behind The Voice Actors – Grey DeLisle". Behind The Voice Actors. Retrieved February 27, 2018.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 21:57, 17 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Father’s cause of death

Isn’t it true that the brother’s father died from illness rather than a car accident? They explicitly mention that he was sick before he died in the film. 2600:1700:6062:6000:91C8:5FD2:9C87:D8FC (talk) 07:01, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In the section on the lawsuit, it should include that she did not create the image on the van but paid someone to create it, who used a copyrighted image by Sharlene Lindskog-Osorio entitled Moonlight Magic as his reference. Both of these facts speak to the merits of her claim to any copyright interest in the image on her van. Sources: Her own contemporaneous Instagram post when the van painting was being created showing a man (not her) painting it with two reference images taped to the van (a closeup and a normal sized version of Moonlight Magic) (https://www.instagram.com/p/v1sar1nTJl/) and a FB post by Sharlene Lindskog-Osorio advertising Moonlight Magic for sale as an oil painting on January 12, 2017 with the same image the van artist was using as a reference (https://www.facebook.com/sharlene.lindskog.osorio.art/photos/pb.100066740821220.-2207520000/330581870674672/?type=3).

In addition, her original January 27, 2020, Federal copyright infringement suit was voluntarily dismissed on March 21, 2020, after these facts were pointed out to her counsel by Disney's counsel. However, over a year later, on November 18, 2021, she filed CA State law claims for breach of contract, fraudulent misrepresentation, fraudulent concealment, constructive fraud, and promissory estoppel. Disney successfully had the case removed from State Court to Federal Court based on Copyright law preempting the state law claims. Though she attempted to have it returned to State court, her motion was denied on May 10, 2022. Source: Sweet Cicely Daniher v. Pixar Animation Studios, U.S. Dist. Ct. N.D.

One other thing about the lawsuit: On May 27, 2022, they filed a stipulation to stay the case to - among other things - discuss settlement. On June 28, 2022, she filed a notice of voluntary dismissal with prejudice, suggesting there was, in fact, a settlement. On the same day, the Court approved the dismissal with prejudice.
