Editing Guidelines Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article: If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film) For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films) When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references. Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film. Article upgrading needed: You can help! WP:IA   Stub to Start-Class Upgrading Instructions for Films Note that instructions for articles on other types of film topics within the scope of WikiProject Films are currently under development. To contribute in upgrading this stub article to Start class, the following requirements must be met: Significant intro (list the title, alternate titles, year released, director, actors starring in the film, summary of headings, etc.) Film infobox ({{infobox film}}) Picture: Consult WikiProject Free Images for freely released images from a film shoot, opening, or other relevant free image. Non-free and unlicensed images are to be avoided if at all possible, but if used should include a detailed fair use rationale. (An image is not required for start class if unavailable.) Plot summary Include cast and crew information. At least two other developed sections of information (production, reception (including box office figures), awards and honors, themes, differences from novel or TV show, soundtrack, sequels, DVD release, etc.) Categories (by year, country, language, and genre(s))  Helpful links: WP:BETTER, WP:LEAD, WP:REF, WP:WAF Once this article has fulfilled these requirements, the film can be reassessed to Start class and this template will be removed automatically.

[edit] Affiliation

The movie relates that the members of La Onda grew up in Southern California (East Los Angeles), and with that, they would have no association with Nuestra Familia seeing as Nuestra Familia members are primarily from Nothern Californa. The Mexican Mafia comparison is the most logical association.

[edit] synopsis

Someone decided to add a few sentences to the first paragraph of the synopsis. Someone with more knowledge of the plot should fix it, or remove those entirely.206.45.150.119 (talk) 01:44, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

I am new to uploading pictures, but I really felt that this movie page needed a poster. If I have done anything wrong (i.e. I can't put that there), please try to figure out a way to have a poster on the page. Thanks.

[edit] False Content

Hi Everybody. I read in the article that due to the plot summary, The Aryan Vanguard is run by the caracter "Big Al". That is false. Big Al is not even a member of the gang. It is run by the caracter "Red Ryder". May I change that?

[edit] Move

Why was this moved? Why was it not discussed first?--Rockero 19:33, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Some racial bias there

This claim is so unjustified: "The film is regarded as the best movie of all time by most Latinos. It is as important to Chicanos, as Charlie & The Chocolate Factory is to white people", I believe it's very offensive. Besides, let's face it, it's a good movie, but every character is such a sterotype... to me it's like a very entertaining 180 minute long version of any regular soap opera from Televisa or Venevisión with a high budget. 164.77.207.69 18:11, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] I agree

As funny as it sounds, I have to agree with that proclamation! ("The film is regarded as the best movie of all time by most Latinos. It is as important to Chicanos, as Charlie & The Chocolate Factory is to white people") —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 12.111.228.82 (talk) 19:44, 28 February 2007 (UTC).

I am not sure I agree with you. I am Latino, as is my sister. We both agree that this IS the best movie of all time, perhaps even MORE important than Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is for white people. Do not erase the statement, that would be racist. Are you a racist?85.18.14.33 21:05, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] I've removed the bias on the page

I've changed some parts of the article for neutrality.

Also it is better known through out the world (and as stated in interviews - by the director himself) as 'blood in blood out. therefore i have changed the main title to this. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Riverdepp (talk • contribs) 06:55, 13 April 2007 (UTC).

[edit] i'm sorry

the entire "best movie" arguement that person is making is COMPLETELY unjustified. so him and his sister think it's the "greatest latino movie ever". that's great and all but just because you two think so doesnt make it fact.

by the way i'm mexican, so dont pull out your stupid "racism" card. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.37.74.206 (talk) 11:06, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

if i were caucasian i think i'd also take offense to that charlie and the chocolate factory reference.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Bloodinbloodout directorcut.jpg

Image:Bloodinbloodout directorcut.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
