Bold text==Release date== The articles says it's to be released in October, yet there's lots of publicity out around where I live (sides of buses, posters etc.) saying it's out July 21st. --Chrism 18:11, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

Actually I see the dates are already mentioned in the infobox. I'll just remove the october reference from the main body of the article.he is cool

[edit] Differences between film and book

Perhaps someone should add a section comparing the book to the film.

I've added a section header for now. If anyone wishes to expand, please do so. Also check if the information is correct before adding. -- Britishagent 17:47, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Yeah I posted that before but I wasnt signed in. If I have some spare time I'll expand on whats there.

Here's a BIG difference. In the series, Sabina Pleasure doesn't appear until Skeleton Key. Alex meets her at Wimbledon. She does not attend his school. EVER. Also, Nadia Vole never has a fight with Jack Starbright. Jack Starbright plays a very small role in the book. I haven't seen the movie, but I'm assuming her role is much larger in the movie than in the book. I saw no mention of the four wheelers that Alex has to escape in the book. Alex doesn't inject Mr. Grin with truth serum in the book, he threatens him with a gun. Yes, a gun. Does Alex almost shoot off the Prime minister's hand in the movie? Does Alex go through that tunnel with water and whatnot? Sayle had no backup plan in the book... at all. There was one button that activated the computers and the virus. Alex shot the button. (And almost shot the prime minister.)

[edit] Nintendo DS

Anyone have info to add about the Nintendo DS and use? here are some links to get started http://www.nintendo.com/gamemini?gameid=Xedt7mu9vuQSgALdg2ff0dItOEwGXE6Y& and http://www.nintendo.com/newsarticle?articleid=K-gIdwvFB-OyFTl3S2CF83iZ0NmoRfW_

Maybe add it to the "differences than book" section

The Nintendo DS game already has at an article on Wikipedia at Alex Rider: Stormbreaker. If you're referring to its use in the film, the article already mentions it a little but a clearer explanation could be used in the 'Differences between book and film' section. -- Britishagent 22:51, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

Yes I ment how does he use it as a "spy gadget" in the film?

The only thing I can remember Alex using the DS for, is to check his room for bugs. It alerts him to one in the statue. Can anyone think of anymore? -- Britishagent 04:24, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Smoke bomb in his escape from the mine. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 83.216.147.118 (talk) 16:31, 24 February 2007 (UTC).

[edit] DVD Release

Should someone add the DVD release date? Ncusa367 01:37, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

It probably deserves a mention in the second paragraph. It doesn't warrant it's own section. -- Britishagent 05:05, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Who are these fuckin morons that put these facts, 'Actually salt water would screw up metal in a tank.' Shut the fuck up.

[edit] The Editors of the Stormbreaker film page are wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hey, the editors of the stormbreaker film page are wrong, because, there is a cargo plane in the movie. Except the fact that it's a helicopter. Hey, the editors should know about this! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Soinsobob (talk • contribs) 22:57, 25 January 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Lists of trivia too long

The lists of "Differences between book and film," "References and similarities to other films or the books," and "Errors and inconsistencies" take up almost half the article, and are mostly unencyclopedic trivia. Jibjibjib 09:17, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Thats why its called "Trivia"! DE DE DE! DurotarLord 14:00, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Breaker2.jpg

Image:Breaker2.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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
