Corrections to FRED: The Movie

Clay Weiner Directed the movie not Brian Robbins. Brian was only a producer on the project.

{{Editprotected}} Fred: The Movie directed by Clay Weiner. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Varsitypictures (talk • contribs) 22:54, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

You have (almost) requested an edit to a fully protected article, but this article is not fully protected.

You also seem to have ignored the instructions in the template. I personally think this entire section should be deleted, but I'm not sure enough of the propriety of that move to do it myself. I don't want to be unfriendly.

Finally, in future please sign your comments with four tildes, like this: ~~~~ — JohnFromPinckney (talk) 23:44, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

FRED: The Movie Director Change

{{editsemiprotected}} Fred: The Movie will be a 2010 film based on the YouTube series about Fred Figglehorn. It features Lucas Cruikshank as Fred, Pixie Lott as Judy, Jennette McCurdy as Bertha, Jake Weary as Kevin, John Cena as Fred's dad, and Siobhan Fallon Hogan as Fred's mom. It follows the character as he tries to track down his crush, Judy. Along the way, he dreams about an invisibility suit, digs a hole from his house to Judy's, gets lost in some woods, and more. It is written by David A. Goodman and directed Clay Weiner and produced by Brian Robbins. Filming began November 9th, 2009, and wrappped up December 20th, 2009. The movie will be released to theaters everywhere in 2010. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Varsitypictures (talk • contribs) 23:02, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

Here, too, you've ignored the instructions for using the template. After combining this malformed request in this section with the malformed request in the previous section, and going to the refence cited and reading the article, one can eventually surmise what you're aiming for, but it's more work than it should be.

Apparently, you wanted to say this (I've taken the liberty of correcting the English):

Please change "It is written by David A. Goodman and directed and produced by Brian Robbins." to "It is written by David A. Goodman, directed by Clay Weiner, and produced by Brian Robbins."

I've guessed this because the Times article used as a reference refers to "Clay Weiner, the director", even though it also mentions "the director-producer Brian Robbins".

The two problems with me making this change myself is (1) I'm not sure how to twiddle the {{editsemiprotected}} template properly, and (2) I don't know what to do about the fact that IMDb claims Steve Drain is directing the movie.

Sorry to leave this uncorrected, but maybe some other editor with experience and interest will happen by to help. — JohnFromPinckney (talk) 00:01, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

Follow-up: Just to follow up on my own remarks earlier, I now see that I was looking at the wrong IMDb page. It seems that there are two Fred: The Movies and I (stupidly) linked to the one from 2000. The relevant link is this one. Added here two months later so as not to let my earlier text confuse other passers-by too much. — JohnFromPinckney (talk) 06:02, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

Done Welcome and thanks for contributing. And thanks to John for spending the time to reason out the request. The existing reference mentions both of them as director, but the clapboard in the picture lists C. Weiner as director. Celestra (talk) 04:16, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

Fred's mom on screen?

But Fred's mom has been seen in one episode, called "Fred on Halloween". Wait...what? Is this a video that was deleted. Also, the "Watch How I Do This" song is only in A FEW of the videos, not all of them, as the article states. --98.232.236.134 (talk) 04:55, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

Three Seasons?

If it's only been around slightly more than a year, how can it be in it's third season?TheDarkOneLives (talk) 09:54, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

A season doesn't have to be a year long, its how Cruikshank has listed the episodes on the Fred channel. 117Avenue (talk) 14:51, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

Guest Star

Did you hear that Fred Figglehorn is going to make a guest appearance in Back At The Barnyard? Chomper4 (talk) 16:32, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

Do you have a reliable source for this? 117Avenue (talk) 22:31, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

Check the wikipedia page for episodes of Back at the Barnyard. Chomper4 (talk) 11:18, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Okay, I see it now, but there are no references for the information on future episodes, how do we know its reliable? 117Avenue (talk) 14:27, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Proposed split

This article is confusing discussing both Fred (the character), and Lucas (the actor). I propose that the information discussing Cruikshank be moved to Lucas Cruikshank, and Fred Figglehorn discusses the character and the series. 117Avenue (talk) 14:51, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

That's what I thought for a while also. It would be way more clear. Jeremjay24 22:31, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

This discussion was been continued at Wikipedia:Deletion review#Lucas Cruikshank. 117Avenue (talk) 21:50, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

This is an editorial discussion, DRV is not necessary or relevant. Furthermore, in light of the fact that this proposal has held nearly a month with no opposition, and the split was reverted with the only reasoning citing an AfD merge decision from over a year ago, I've restored 117Avenue's new version. Any one opposing this should feel free to air their views, of course.--Fyre2387 ^{(talk • contribs)} 00:41, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

About Fred...

So, i think i might be wrong but... when i see Fred, i think he's not a "6 year old" kid, i see (and many of us) a very "girly" boy, that scream like a lady and so.

But i had not see any discussion or article about it.

Maybe i'm wrong, but i wanna know why. I don't know how to make a section, so if maybe one of you can. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Felipe.fredesp (talk • contribs) 09:52, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

He is a 16 year old actor who plays a perpetual 6 year old, it is YouTube, you have to use your imagination. I don't see what more you want added. 117Avenue (talk) 12:41, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

See? We are having a discussion. He looks like a 6 years old, but a girl not a boy. And we all see it —Preceding unsigned comment added by Felipe.fredesp (talk • contribs) 01:38, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

This is not a chatroom. If there are any further discussions that are not article content related, they will be removed per WP:TPG. Active Banana ( ^bananaphone 01:43, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

also... fred is no loner #2 most subbed. He's #3, i think it happened on sep 28 2010, but i cant be sure. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wafflesmart (talk • contribs) 15:53, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

Youtube channel partnered to ???

The 3-rd line said: "Partnered with the fredlikesbigbutts youtube channel, etc etc" I returned 5 minutes later and noticed it changed to: "Partnered with the Aztromlg youtube channel, etc etc"

The youtubechannel www.youtube.com/fredlikesbigbutts shows 2 video's, both Fred video's and seems to be genuine. The youtubechannel www.youtube.com/Aztromlg does not contain any Fred video's.

To me it seems someone wants to boost the Aztromlg youtube channel. Please advise

Appears to be vandalism.--Rtphokie (talk) 20:22, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

Fred is... GONE!

Did you notice that Fred's YouTube account has been suspended from YouTube? And so has Lucas's! 82.12.1.173 (talk) 15:40, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

Fred's channel is (back) up, so I don't think anything warrants mentioning in this article. —C.Fred (talk) 17:29, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

Well OK, that is two interesting facts. He got suspended, then his channel came back up. Weird, YouTube channels that are suspended (now known as terminated) usually stay like that for ever. My old computer with 82.12.1.173 on it broke down.82.13.79.52 (talk) 10:45, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

Characters need to be discussed.

I feel that this Wikipedia page needs to discuss the characters in the show. Prehaps a list with each character from the Youtube show AND the movie with a description of each character. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Edaj175 (talk • contribs) 23:12, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

A list of characters did exist, and was deleted because a list of characters aren't appropriate for so little screen time. 117Avenue (talk) 23:32, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

Screen time should not be a deciding factor in this situation. A list of characters is important. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.10.63.226 (talk) 19:05, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

Third film

Given the number of attempts to add a title for the third film and the lack of sources to support the edits, is it time to consider temporary protection of the article? —C.Fred (talk) 00:19, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

Same problem at Lucas Cruikshank. 117Avenue (talk) 03:41, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

Bought by Yuksung Corp?

According to the channel, new Fred videos are "Copyright Yuksung Corporation". According to its website, it has acquired Fred. I think this is pretty noteworthy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kingsocarso (talk • contribs) 14:44, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

Needs third party coverage. 117Avenue (talk) 04:46, 13 August 2014 (UTC)

Offical Fred Channel confims its as "The NEW FRED Saga" over year ago and also Techinally confimed that Fred's semi-final appearance in "Fred defeats Yuksung [Corp]"[1] 70.61.121.86 (talk) 17:21, 24 November 2015 (UTC)

The New Fred Saga is mentioned. 117Avenue (talk) 03:49, 25 November 2015 (UTC)

Moving Episodes to a Separate Page

I request that the Fred Episodes should move to a separate page. In other words, the section "Filmography" in the Subsection "Content" is extremely cluttered. The original intent of the article is to summarize the Character "Fred Figglehorn", not to list all of his episodes.Yoshiman6464 (talk) 00:52, 1 February 2016 (UTC)

The article is about the series. The character and the series aren't notable enough for separate articles. 117Avenue (talk) 01:59, 1 February 2016 (UTC)

Past

It's been an awful long time since nobody has made any edits to this page, but since Fred ended on August 26, 2014, I had to edit the page to keep it up to date and improve accuracy.

Fred is a thing in the past, and he no longer makes any appearances, though he might make one more on Lucas's personal channel, it would mean the total end of Fred Figglehorn, so I decided to edit the page with more paragraphs and citation sources, as those factors are true. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.84.249.199 (talk) 12:06, 3 June 2016 (UTC)

While I agree that the Fred appearances on Lucas's channel warrant mention, please remember that fictional series are to remain to be referred to in the present tense, as per WP:FICTENSE. So "The series uses a floating timeline" is still a correct statement. 117Avenue (talk) 04:46, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
