Talk:Steven Spielberg
From Homestar Runner Wiki
[edit] Springblush... Mr. Kate Capshaw!
All right... we know Spielberg is popular and all, but I don't think there's enough to warrant a page. The "An American Tail" ref is extremely tenuous, since Spielberg was only the executive producer for the film. Unless somebody can come up with some more, I would suggest this page be Terminated (oops, wrong director...) wbwolf (t | ed) 06:36, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
- If we compare these to similar pages: George Lucas and Alfred Hitchcock, they have really direct references and/or many overall references. Since this page currently have none, then I don't see a reason to keep it. Regardless how famous Spielberg is. — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 20:25, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
- I split out the movies not directed by him to other pages. Jurassic Park III went to Jurassic Park and An American Tail went to Don Bluth. I added in references to films directed by Steven Spielberg. So, now with 3 references, I think this page can stay. Jennifer 11:35, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
- I also just thought of something. Steven Spielberg directed all of the Indiana Jones movies. I think the references to those movies deserve to be listed here as much as they do George Lucas. Jennifer 11:43, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Image
I started wondering just now whether or not the current picture seems too obscure for readers born after the Video Game Crash. If so, should I post a picture of the original game's title card, or replace the image with something that holds up better on its own? If the latter, I'd suggest the King of Town dressed as the mashed potato mountain from Close Encounters of the Third Kind, with his kind-of quote from that movie as the caption.

- The North American Video Game Crash happened in 1983; which is what most readers were born after. I think it's safe to assume it's not too obscure. However, a replacement with the mashed potato mountain could be interesting if other editors approve of the idea. -
