Man's Best Friend (film) → Man's Best Friend (1993 film) — There is at least one other film by the same name. 64.105.65.28 (talk) 19:30, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

• Oppose. No other film articles with this title on Wikipedia, hence there is nothing to disambiguate. PC78 (talk) 21:25, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
• Oppose per PC78; would support such a move if we had other articles of films with this title. There's quite a few at IMDb, but films other than the 1993 one should be notable for article creation on Wikipedia. Erik (talk | contribs) 21:30, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

• Support per creation of another film article with the same title. Disambiguation will be needed. Also support redirecting Man's Best Friend (film) to Man's best friend with any links related to the 1993 film properly disambiguated for that article. Erik (talk | contribs) 19:48, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

• Support because Man's Best Friend (film) would then be made a disambiguation page or a redirect to the disambiguation page Man's best friend. Man's Best Friend (1935 film) has incoming links. 64.105.65.28 (talk) 22:49, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
  • Your support for this move is implicit in your nomination. Man's Best Friend (1935 film) may have incoming links, but it has no article. When it does I'll probably support this move, but until then there is nothing to be disambiguated. PC78 (talk) 23:47, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

• I did a search engine test of terms related to this film, such as the title + director and title + actor. I'm not finding evidence that there is significant coverage, per WP:N, of the film. There are minor recaps of the plot, but I'm not seeing anything that couldn't be summarized in a sentence or two at Douglas Haig. Erik (talk | contribs) 12:11, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

• Weak support then, with Man's Best Friend (film) as a redirect to Man's best friend. I share Erik's concerns about notability for the other article, but a web search isn't really the best test for a 1930s film so I'll give it the benefit of the doubt. PC78 (talk) 17:29, 3 September 2010 (UTC)
• Support, this title is ambiguous with more than one film articles about films of the same title. BOVINEBOY2008 19:08, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
• Support - Per Erik.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 19:17, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
• Support Now there are other films with this title on WP. Lugnuts (talk) 11:13, 7 September 2010 (UTC)

This is not a comedy

The genre is described as "horror-comedy" but though the movie can be amusing in a "so bad it's good" kind of way, it was clearly not intended to be funny. Resistance is Character-Forming (talk) 20:27, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

Will there ever be a sequel to the first film. The first movie was magnificent and seeing the puppy that look just like him and born with the extraordinary traits would make an excellent sequel.

Think about a sequel to the 1993 film. I believe it would make a remarkable combat after all these years using the same cast along with some additional characters. 50.86.48.128 (talk) 13:15, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
