Turbo (film)Turbo (2013 film) – Dab from Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie. This film is more popular than the other film but not so much so that partial disambiguation would be warranted even ignoring WP:PRIMARYFILM. This is a test case for Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (films)#Does this apply to subtitles? * Pppery * it has begun... 14:31, 16 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

  • Support the 2012 one has 19,495 but A Power Rangers Movie has 5,000 which probably isn't enough for a PDAB. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:09, 16 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose because if we have phonetically indistinguishable and easily-switched-around Ocean's 11 and Ocean's Eleven per WP:SMALLDETAILS consensus, then this setup is fine. Disambiguation is about technical sortability (beyond whatever primary topic could be determined). There is no other film just called Turbo to technically break out "(film)" further here. All we need to do is make sure the details are there for when a reader looks for the topic. Turbo (film) already has the short description and the hatnote, and I just expanded the films' descriptions on the disambiguation page here.

  • Oppose. I'm not an expert on the somewhat obscure 1997 film, but I don't think this is a good test case for applicability of subtitles. Some films have vestigial subtitles that aren't that important (Dr. Strangelove) and some films have the subtitle a key part of how the film is referred to (Captain America: The Winter Soldier). I get the impression that 1997's Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie is closer to the Captain America: The Winter Soldier example where the subtitle is important and part of how the film is talked/written about. (If it was closer to the Dr. Strangelove case where the subtitle wasn't that important, then a move would have more merit, IMO.) SnowFire (talk) 20:42, 16 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
    • Weak support per Tassedethe. I'm still not sold on the argument concerning the 1997 film, but judging by the budget, the 2024 film Turbo appears to be a major production and not a small indie film. While ideally we'd wait a little just in case the 2024 film ends up stuck in development hell and isn't actually released, this is pretty unlikely, so eh, probably safe to just move this article now.

  • Oppose per page views: the Power Rangers movie has 7.1k, while this article has 31.3k. Even without considering the usage of page views, this film is generally more notable than the other.
