Article Name Change?

edit

Shouldn't the name of this article be changed from One Missed Call to Chakushin Ari? I mean the sequel to this movie's (One Missed Call 2 or Chakushin Ari 2) article is still in its Japanese name (Chakushin Ari 2), not in it's translated English name. Also other movie from the J-horror have their articles left in their Japanese names. What are other people's thoughts on this?--Mmmundo 01:57, 15 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

I agree. Per WP:MJ it should be "Chakushin Ari" not "One Missed Call (2004 film)". Moocows rule 07:26, 30 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
It appears to have been licensed. Look at the picture. It's in English, indicating it's been licensed. Moocows rule 09:31, 30 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
Why is it that the title says this is a 2004 film but then in the intro paragraph it says it is a 2003 film? Raisin56 (talk) 08:49, 20 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

TV Series

edit

There's a One Missed Call TV series as well. I don't know much about it.

Level of significance

edit

I think that, unless a film is a classic, which it is not (yet), it deos not deserve such an extended chapter. Wikipedia should concentrate on literary or other cultural significance of the film and leave the task of listing all films, regardless of their significance, to databases, such as the IMDB, which can do it better. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nikos Bonanos (talkcontribs) 19:23, 28 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Plot Summary

edit

The plot summary doesn't so much read as a "summary" as a "slightly condensed script." It's literally scene by scene for a movie with a plot that is just not very sophisticated. As far as I can surmise, there's a ringtone and/or a phone message that somehow kills you. I think that summary would answer 99 percent of all queries related to this movie better than what's currently there. If someone with more interest in writing a snappy-yet-complete plot summary works on this, that would be great, otherwise I'm just going to remove the current summary and replace it with some variation of what the IMDB has.

Can do. I'll aim for 2-3 paragraphs, max., and see if I can drop it even lower. Fanboys need to learn respect for storage space, right? :) 71.9.8.150 (talk) 22:23, 4 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Cleanup

edit

This article needs to clean up, there are many spelling and grammatical errors, run-on sentences, and such. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.85.8.65 (talk) 10:08, 29 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Sabotaged

edit

Someone has messed with the plot ending, it needs to be changed back. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Abhakhri (talkcontribs) 00:54, 18 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Karpman drama triangle

edit

I read a very interesting analysis of the movie's themes in terms similar to the Karpman drama triangle. Is there a consensus view that these themes are in play, and should be developed in the article? 70.247.172.237 (talk) 06:20, 3 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
