Orphaned references in Kim Possible (2019 film)

edit

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Kim Possible (2019 film)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "itunes":

  • From Good Luck Charlie, It's Christmas!: "I'm Gonna Run to You - Single by Bridgit Mendler (GB)". iTunes. Retrieved September 27, 2012.
  • From How to Build a Better Boy: "Something Real (From "How to Build a Better Boy") - Single". iTunes. July 22, 2014.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 14:51, 2 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Kim's father

edit

Was it my imagination, or did I see John Glover as Dr. James Timothy Possible? IMDB doesn't give anyone any credit for the role (but as a member, I can always correct that missing info just like I do here). ---------User:DanTD (talk) 12:48, 16 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

I can definitely say it wasnt John Glover--Fradio71 (talk) 15:02, 16 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

Nana surname

edit

To avoid a potential edit war, I'mma lay out my reasoning here… look over the entire article. Connie Ray is listed as "Anne's mother, Kim's grandmother." Okay, well, problem is, a mother's mother will NOT have the father's last name. That's paternal vs maternal, thus a different character. Plus the on-screen fact that Kim, "Ann", and "Nana" are ALL redheads, the narrative implication is maternal-side lineage. Again, Nana cannot have the paternal surname.

In addition, the actual aired product, the movie itself does not name the roles of the actors. Connie Ray's role is not listed onscreen or end credits, only identified in dialog as "Nana". Kim's father, who in the animated series was "James Possible" is not named in dialog, and end credits simply list him as "Dad". Similar for Alyson Hannigan, dialog only identifies her as "Mom", and the closest thing to an end-credit mention is listing the "Mom Stunt Double". Same for Nana, dialog only identification and only end credit mention is for "Nana (and Shego) Stunt Double".

Which begs the question, WHY the ambiguous disconnect between the pre-production casting announcement and aired crediting/narrative identification?? Especially since 1) the original creators produced the film, and 2) after 18 years it is not as if the proper character names are without complete sourcing across the internet. Yet there is a clear and distinct difference between pre-production information and what the complete, aired end-product gives us.

And if the response to any of this is "it's a reboot", then everything and every detail becomes suspect. If I'm not mistaken, that then means the actual aired final product is the definitive source over even pre-production information.

I know what I do on other sites has little weight here on Wikipedia, still, FWIW I'll mention that I've been running Fandom.com's Kim Possible Wiki since 2012. I'm a little more than the average knowledgeable fan. :) Love Robin (talk) 02:34, 18 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Love Robin: Our guidelines cause a bit of a conflict here. WP:TVCAST says "All names should be referred to as credited, or by common name supported by a reliable source" which is generally interpreted as prefer credits but fall back to a reliable source if we don't have credit info. Given that the film itself counts as a reliable primary source that is more recent than the TVline source being used for the name now, the surname is not in the credits, but she is referred to as Nana in the film dialog, it looks reasonable to me to drop the surname completely from the name in this article as a reasonable compromise on this. As an aside on this, there are cases where parents do share the same birth surname, the children of Franklin and Eleanore Roosevelt for example, but this is rare.

@Geraldo Perez: Thank you. Now, in the same vein, the movie and its credits as direct and latest source, keeping in mind this is a reboot and many details from Old Canon are now suspect, there are other character name incongruities which should be addressed…
  1. Dr Ann Possible, Kim's mother… dialog="Mom", closest credit mention lists the "Mom Stunt Double"
  2. Dr James Possible, Kim's father… dialog AND credits simply list him as "Dad"
  3. Steven Barkin… dialog AND credits simply list him as "Mr. Barkin"
  4. Bonnie Rockwaller… Dialog="Bonnie" and "Bon Bon", the actress is listed without role, closest credit mention list the "Bonnie Stunt Double"
I have zero clue as to why a product produced by the same franchise creators left so many well-known and verifiable Original Canon Continuity details as vague and ambiguous in this their latest addition to their own rebooted intellectual property unless it be to leave open options to change them from what went before. But it is what it is, and like in many other franchises where reboots and incarnations make changes both major and minor, the Kim Possible fandom needs to be less intractable and woke to the possibilities… Love Robin (talk) 05:02, 18 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
The character names for the first 10 actors listed in the article are not shown on-screen. With the exception of Maxwell Simkins, Disney ABC Press' bios page has all the character names and supports last names in most cases, including Nana. That is more recent than TVLine and still supports that; there is no issue here. Amaury (talk | contribs) 05:33, 18 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Love Robin: Disneypress info is official from the production and is authoritative and should be used for stuff not shown in credits. For whatever reason they use Nana Possible so presume they didn't think this through about maternal line names or Kim's mom and dad really are cousins and have the same birth surname.

Genre

edit

Earlier sources—the casting announcements—report this as a comedy-adventure. The announcement with the premiere date reports this as a comedic action-adventure. I have three genres listed for this currently, but that's probably a bit overkill. Which genre should we go with? Amaury (talk | contribs) 16:30, 18 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

I would say "Comedy" and "Action-adventure" as the two listed genres is fine. --IJBall (contribstalk) 18:43, 18 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

Ratings

edit

This DCOM received the lowest ratings within the last decade, and it is verifiable by looking at List of Disney Channel original films. This was previously discussed for another DCOM at: Talk:Freaky Friday (2018 film). Amaury (talk | contribs) 22:41, 20 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Rotton Tomatoes info

I think it should be in the article, sourced, but not characterized. 6 reviews is low. Geraldo Perez (talk) 20:47, 29 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

Variety article under the Critical Response section

edit

There is some confusion over the text cited. Some claim that it shoud not be listed under the section. Maybe moving the text to the Production section would be better? Since the Variety article ‘Kim Possible’ Boss on Live-Action Movie as ‘Wonder Woman’ for the ‘Prepubescent Set’ lists the work of the women who worked on the live action movie, it would be a better fit .
