Lucky Star reference

edit

Wasn't the battle scene in the train station referenced in ep 21 of the anime? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.244.161.41 (talk) 01:00, 20 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Potentially. If you can find sources backing this up, go ahead and add it. Andrzejbanas (talk) 23:04, 29 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

This has been removed, and yeah, pretty poor. I've found actual reviews. Andrzejbanas (talk) 23:04, 29 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Awakening vs. Revenge

edit

Should the article's title be Gamera 3: Revenge of Iris opposed to Awakening of Iris? This is the title used on all English home videos of the film and all the english language reviews in the article. I think it should be "Revenge" opposed to "Awakening".

Page changed from "Revenge..." to "Incomplete Struggle"

edit

You've noticed I've changed the page name from Gamera 3: The Revenge of Iris to Gamera 3: Incomplete Struggle. The reason I gave for the change was due to the fact that "Incomplete Struggle" is the film's official English subtitle completely authorized by Daiei upon the film's release. These posters provide evidence that the subtitle was indeed used. While "Revenge of Iris" is the most commonly known and used subtitle to reference the film, it was the subtitle used for the film's American DVD release. "Incomplete Struggle" is the official English subtitle commissioned and authorized by Daiei for the film and it only seems natural that we use the subtitle Daiei commissioned for English markets.

Hello, please read Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Titles#Translations. We use the most common english title. As it premiered in English speaking countries (Toronto Film Festival) and on home video as it's previous title, I think we should use that. All reviews of the film use the other Enlish title as well.

Gamera 3: The Revenge of IrisGamera 3: Revenge of Iris – Per Wiki's common names, the official releases of the film do not include the "the" part in the title. I couldn't move it because the title "Gamera: Revenge of Iris" (without the "the" part) was already used for the page before. – Armegon (talk) 20:50, 20 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

English translation of Japanese title

The English translation of the Japanese title needs to be included in this article.Malcolmlucascollins (talk) 03:53, 20 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

Dropping the "the" from the page title

edit

I know the page was failed to move from Gamera 3: The Revenge of Iris to Gamera 3: Revenge of Iris because there is no rule against keeping "the" in subtitles, but that completely missed the point of the requested move. Gamera 3: The Revenge of Iris isn't a title officially used for the movie in any home video releases. The most common English title for the movie is Gamera 3: Revenge of Iris. That was the title used for both the DVD and Blu-ray releases of the movie in North America, and is even included on Japanese releases of the film. There's no reason for this page to have a "the" in the title when there is no release of the movie which includes one to begin with. The second film has been released with an added "the," for example as Gamera 2: Attack of the Legion, but this film has only been released without a "the" in the title.
