Some rumors have been spread casting Adam Brody [The O.C.] as Samuel Clayman and Jason Shwartzman [Rushmore] as Josef Kavalier.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.178.240.192 (talkcontribs)

If you can find a reference for the rumors, feel free to put them in. -- Chabuk T • C ] 20:13, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed movie page merge[edit]

I believe that the page on the K&C film is in violation of WP:NOT in that "individual expected future events" are to be included on Wikipedia "if the event is notable and almost certain to take place." Since the film adaptation of K&C has been in various stages of pre-production since 2002 (and, as of April 2007, has stalled), I feel that the information on the film should be merged into this article. (Having a separate article for the unmade film is, to me, like having separate pages addressing the various unsuccessful attempts to make movies of out, say, The Catcher in the Rye or A Confederacy of Dunces.)

I agree completely. María (críticame) 15:12, 11 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Agree. Merge--although the material could stand some rewriting and tightening up.--ShelfSkewed Talk 01:51, 12 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Great! I've merged the film article here, and tried to condense the text a little. Hobbesy3 06:39, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Theme Section Misgivings[edit]

I propose the Theme section be deleted. It's just all original research and speculation. The fact one book resembles another theme wise doesn't belong in Wiki. Lots42 21:23, 12 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that some of it is speculative and/or irrelevant to an encyclopedic article, but there's also some fairly straightforward elucidation of the text that I think could be supported by reliable outside sources. The section needs to be cleaned up, for sure, but I don't think it should be eliminated altogether. --ShelfSkewed Talk 22:00, 12 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
