The recent edits regarding the movie's plot, though not in accordance with the general wikipedia style of writing, are witty enough and thus I propose to preserve them. I kindly ask to post your opinion here before removing them.

[edit] Technical Goofs

I removed the "goof" about Hawk being called Hawks. This was intentional. People add 'S's at the end of last names all the time. Mcflytrap 15:43, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

This may have been "intentional" but was a product of either sloppy editing,scripting, or both. "'s" are added to people's names when used to indicate possession, not randomly when referring to someone by name as in this movie.

Barnical men? WTF? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.36.42.223 (talk) 00:58, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Most well-known

I dispute the sentence that says this is one of the most well known Stallone films. I wouldn't put this in the top ten. Ask anyone what Stallone has been in, and you'll get any one of the Rockys or Rambos, maybe Cliffhanger, or Demolition Man or Judge Dredd. Stop or my mom will shoot, anyone? A reference would be great...

Seriously though, why does it say "Over the Top is a 1987 barnical men dramatic/action film" in the article? What the hell is "barnical men" doing in that sentence?! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.36.42.223 (talk) 04:15, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
