[edit] Budget and takings

Could someone please write about the budget of this film and how much money was taken in at the box office? Home Alone has this information and its sequel should too. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Crazy Eddy (talk • contribs)

[edit] Songs included in the movie

Could someone please provide some song information. The piano melody was nice. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.240.234.212 (talk • contribs)

[edit] Synopsis

could someone add more detail in the [sypnosis!] JJ 01:30, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Quotes

I do think that the quotes section should be copied to Wikiquote, but that's just my one vote. Vote here! - dogman15 04:02, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

• Took care of this a few weeks ago. --Goldrushcavi 22:41, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fatality

based on the injuries sustained, wouldn't they have died. I can't find anything on this subject. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.176.172.119 (talk • contribs)

• Probably so. But that's why it's a movie and not real life... --Goldrushcavi 22:41, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Agreed! Haven't you ever seen movies?Dshibshm (talk) 00:24, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Booby traps

Someone write down the booby traps the robbers suffered --Micoolio101 (talk)

• There has been a list of injuries the two burglars suffered up for some time; unfortunately it has been repeatedly vandalized, deleted and re-added in a reversion war (watch out for WP:3RR, by the way), and most recently replaced by a few paragraphs, which were very sloppy as well as too detailed for a plot summary. I've just replaced the original list - if the majority wants it down bad enough, it can be removed later... vote here with your thoughts and opinions. --Goldrushcavi 22:41, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Plot summary

At an absolutely massive 2600 words, the plot summary had been marked as overlong. I've replaced it with a rewrite based substantially on an earlier revision [1]. --Tony Sidaway 21:59, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Faulty Article

For having such high standards, the grammar here is horrible! Many wrong punctuations and spelling.Dshibshm (talk) 06:22, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
