Talk:Woody Allen filmography

Untitled

I find it quite strange that the column titled "Grossed" only shows the American gross of each film - all his recent films have been financed in Europe and have performed better overseas, so for example stating that You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger made $3,2M makes it sound like a major flop, when it actually made closer to $40M. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.203.75.48 (talk) 01:21, July 20, 2012 (UTC)

Don't Drink the Water

Why is the 1994 TV version listed twice, both in the Film section and in the TV Film section? Does anyone object to removing it from the first table? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.198.85.40 (talk) 00:33, 1 November 2013 (UTC)

Sortable Table?

Given the myriad of roles that Allen has played (as well as the variable success of his films!) it'd be useful if the table were sortable, however in its current format it doesn't seem to work when adding in 'sortable'? Could someone with better wikitable knowledge amend this?

Also, trying to sort his films by gross takings gives them in quasi-alphabetical order, e.g. $12 million, $126 million, $13 million, ... I'd amend it, but don't know enough either. 82.46.70.132 (talk) 19:45, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

Sorted, added data-sort-type="currency" to the field. Vickytnz (talk) 20:11, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

Graph of Rotten Tomato acores over time with fitted trend line

The little graph to the right of the list of films includes a trend line. The graph is unnecessary and the trend line is, frankly, absurd. Such lines are used to extract long-term trends from data being studied. Is this contrivance intended to illustrate that Allen's films are slowly getting poorer receptions over time? Does Wikipedia feature a graph of the popularity of Shakespeare's plays or Dickens's novels over time? No. I suggest that the graph be eliminated. At the very least, the trend line should definitely go. Dratman (talk) 15:17, 30 September 2019 (UTC)

Status of Don't Drink the Water

Not that "theatrical feature films" has been renamed "feature films", should Don't Drink the Water be placed in that table rather than television? One could argue that the spirit of the distinction between television and film is that of TV series ran by writers vs. movies made by filmmakers, and that Don't Drink the Water is an example of the latter category despite being released on TV. I don't mind either way. YouCanDoBetter (talk) 05:17, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

I too thought Don't Drink the Water (1994 film) was simply missing from the film list, so I added it, then noticed it in the TV list, and reversed my additions. Looking at the entries in the TV section, they all seem like TV specials and variety shows. In the spirit of grouping like items together, DDTW doesn't quite fit with the others in the TV section and has more in common with the film entries. Whether a theatrical or TV release seems irrelevant, more and more so these days, when films released on streaming platforms are in consideration for most of the major film awards. I feel DDTW belongs in the Films section, with all the other feature-length works. jmsofia (talk) 01:32, 7 July 2020 (UTC)

Layout

What happened to this page? It used to be much better, with just one list of films with the details in a table, rather than a load of separate lists. e.g. each film had "writer" "director" "actor" "reception" fields, and so on, rather than a separate table for reception listing all the films again. Maybe it can be changed back. I hope so. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.144.110.111 (talk) 16:14, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

Filmography box office numbers

Are those supposed to be adjusted for inflation or something? They are wildly inaccurate. 128.151.71.11 (talk) 16:34, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
