One Month in Hell

This article is currently unverified. A search on google gives no relevant hits. Even if it were verifiable, I'm not sure it's notable enough to merit an entry. Add to that the film has not been actually made yet, according to the article. Delete Mak (talk) 04:36, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I searched (google finds no hits about the movies, but Yahoo does - one of those net quirks I guess) and found several interviews, although most are on fansites re-posted from elsewhere. I could only find one link to an original article: http://www.expressgaynews.com/print.cfm?content_id=2480 This is from a gay lifestyle newspaper published in Florida. Jai Rodriguez also has an official website where the movie is mentioned. It has also been mentioned in other media articles, that seem to not be online. The production company making the movie also mention it on their website: http://www.larkinangels.com/

This is a major movie, has a script, has announced the casting of name stars, and has already begun pre-production. The lead role is played by a famous TV star and Broadway actor in his first real (non-cameo) movie role. Queer Eye is not as 'hot' as it was when it first started (i.e the cast are no longer on every magazine cover and talk show), but they were, and with the show ending it is reasonable to assume there will be a level of interest in what the cast do next. The movie has already garnered some media attention, mostly in the gay press, and sparked a great deal of interest among Queer Eye's huge fanbase, on fansites and forums. There are also discussions going about the movie in Broadway forums, especially among 'Rentheads' because Jai starred in the Broadway production of Rent for years.

There are many upcoming movies listed on Wiki with less information and less public&media interest and I can think of no reason for it to be deleted. If deleted it would just be re-added in a few months when it's no longer an 'upcoming' movie anyway.

I should mention that I was in the middle of adding more info, including citing sources, when I was unable to edit the page for some reason. That is why the page is short on info and sources. 172.212.37.115 05:11, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - crystal ballism. Even if the filming begins there is no guarantee that a movie will be released or even then be notable - Peripitus (Talk) 11:13, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom and Peripitus... it hasn't even got an IMDb entry. Pah. ^Triana_C 13:57, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Of course it must be kept. I've been reading loads about it on the QE blog. It's a big movie being made by a major studio with big-name actors. It already has started filming and has a release date set for next year. Why wouldn't it be notable? Starhunterfan 14:00, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I run a Jai fansite and I've received over 200 emails about this movie. Even if it the current theatrical release date is changed or cancelled (and there is no reason to suspect it will be) the movie is notable enough because of its high profile cast and writer and the level of interest in it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.93.21.74 (talk • contribs)
- Comment I find nothing to indicate that the company making this film is notable either. A search for "Larkin Street Angels" on google gives nothing either, and the website consists of one page announcing this film, with the barest minimum of information. To the above (195) I have seen no information on the writer, and the "high profile cast" consists only of Jai Rodriguez, with no information on anyone else who might be in this film. If there's so much interest in this film there should be more information on it in the media. Once there is that interest in the media, and the film has been released and shown itself to be of interest, then write the article. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball.
