Talk:Mid90s

References

Feel free to clean them up and make em look better. I was in a rush to get the page up and running since the film had already commenced principal production. TheMovieGuy (talk) 18:48, 15 July 2017 (UTC)

@TheMovieGuy: Most references, as well as IMDb, call the film "Mid ’90s", rather than "Mid-90s". I think moving it would be appropriate. DARTHBOTTO _talk•cont 22:31, 17 July 2017 (UTC)

Mid-90s → Mid90s – Please remove the hyphen from the title and format as Mid90s. This is the official title treatment. Do not sign this. Andy.England (talk) 23:17, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

• Restore back to Mid-90s (film) Mid-90s means the mid-90s. In ictu oculi (talk) 11:36, 24 July 2018 (UTC)

• Without an apostrophe, it would be mid-90s; we don't even have a redirect for mid-1990s. Anyone putting "mid" at the start would be looking for the film. I don't know if this article should be "Mid90s", "Mid '90s", or "Mid-90s" as all are in sources. Peter James (talk) 18:41, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
• Not sure why you'd think anyone searching for "Mid90s" would be looking for anything other than the film, In ictu oculi. — Film Fan 16:03, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

Because the film is pretty obscure and "mid 90s" in GBooks doesn't mean the film In ictu oculi (talk) 17:27, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

In ictu oculi, The film is Mid90s with no space or hyphen. It clearly doesn't need any more clarification. — Film Fan 21:47, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

Well if we are going to not have film still strongly oppose Mid90s, which is not what sources have: "Jonah Hill To Helm ‘Mid 90s’ From His Spec Script In Feature Directorial Debut" In ictu oculi (talk) 21:56, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

• Keep Mid90s. While "mid-90s" is somewhat correct to describe the era, the title of THIS FILM is Mid90s so it's irrelevant. The article is about the film, not the era. See poster, A24 website, and trailer for spelling - name of film is shown on screen at 2:12. —Мандичка^YO 😜 07:31, 26 July 2018 (UTC)

This "keep" should read as Support as you are supporting the move. — Film Fan 12:14, 30 July 2018 (UTC)

• Support. Mid90s is the correct and only title, so this couldn't be more obvious. This did not require a move request. — Film Fan 15:59, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

It is Mid 90s in sources In ictu oculi (talk) 21:57, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] etc. — Film Fan 22:19, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

• Support move. Mid90s is the correct title. We can add a hatnote to 1990s for clarity, but there is no article about the middle of the 1990s. BOVINEBOY2008 20:22, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
• Comment - The 5 sources provided in the article (by order) use "Mid 90s", "Mid ’90s", "MID-90S", "Mid ’90s" and "Mid90s". I'm not sure how any of you are so sure what the title is without providing any significint source to back up your claim. As a side note to the 3 supporters of the "Mid90s", the 4 sources, while not using the same title all had a space (or dash) between "Mid" and "90s". --Gonnym (talk) 22:19, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

See above, Gonnym. — Film Fan 12:13, 30 July 2018 (UTC)

Now those sources do indeed support Mid90s. Support the move. --Gonnym (talk) 12:30, 30 July 2018 (UTC)

Opinionated Plot section

Greetings I love . I am not very familiar with Wiki style, but the plot description here is full of interpretation which could be disputed--rather than a direct representation of what appears on the screen. Is this really how this part should be written?

Some examples:

"Ruben begins to resent Stevie because he feels he is being replaced as the “younger kid” in the group." (This one I agree with, but I don't think it is explicit in the film and other intepretations could also be valid.)

"a fed-up and suicidal Stevie attempts to asphyxiate himself with a cord from a Super Nintendo controller" (I disagree. He practices self-harm a few times in the film so this is not necessarily suicidal behavior.)

"Having alienated his mother and brother," (Disagree. My interpretation: "Feeling betrayed by his mother and brother,"--but really shouldn't it be something more neutral like: "After the stress with his mother and brother," ???)

"Ray hopes to make a career in skating, and chats up two professionals as potential sponsors. Fuckshit, who is drunk and high, tries to sabotage Ray’s chances by embarrassing him in front of the pros." (Disagree.)

"Ian gives Stevie a container of orange juice as a peace offering." (Disagree.)

"Moved by the fact they are there for Stevie, Dabney encourages them to visit Stevie's room." (Agreed, but still not explicit. The next line uses the word "appear"--which is also used in another instance and signals the writer's interpretaion. This seems more appropriate if an interpretation is to be given but I would think the plot description should be written more objectively. Thoughts? Thanks.) 189.122.230.52 (talk) 02:57, 1 June 2019 (UTC)
