disambiguation

Shouldn't all search queries for "The New World" refer to the phrase's original meaning, i.e. the American Continent?? There isn't even a mention of options. Somehow I think the general meaning will outlast a motion picture. This page deserves to be an alternative on a disambiguation page for what resides now under "New World".

Articles don't take the definite article unless they are titles. 213.3.66.34 00:38, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:New World 2.jpg

Image:New World 2.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

redirect the new world to New World (disambiguation)

Isn't it supposed to go straight to the disambiguation page instead of to the redirect page? I will try to repair it, if I can remember how it's done.Abie the Fish Peddler (talk) 06:28, 22 September 2009 (UTC) finally got it. sorry for the many triesAbie the Fish Peddler (talk) 06:49, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

"Plot" section

The plot section seems overly detailed. I'm thinking even if it was edited down to half its current word count, it would be good.--Abie the Fish Peddler (talk) 22:17, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

Historical accuracy updated

Updated the historical accuracy section to include the fact that Capt John Smith was a English patriot and not a rebellious Irishman as portrayed by Colin Farrell in the film.Twobells (talk) 17:34, 24 July 2011 (UTC)

I kind of assume you're American if you think that's an Irish accent. I've removed it. Aredbeardeddwarf (talk) 21:42, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Cathy Burke and Powhatan blog

I removed both the cathy burke review and the Powhatan blog because I feel both are irrelevant.

First, I'm sure Burke is a fine historian, and on her movie review website she seems to make a lot of good points on movies that deal with history. However, her criticisms of the New World are pure POV and not factual in nature at all. Other than the usual question of whether John smith is reliable or not and the idea the pocahontas was kicked out of the tribe or not she does not question one historical fact in the film.

Second, her comments about what type of chief wahunsenachaw was seem highly dubious given that very little is know about him before john smith encountered him. As for her comments about how the powhatans are depicted, all I can say is that she and I must have seen two different movies. The impression you get from her review is that malick depicts them as lazy hippies which I feel couldn't be farther from the truth. The are many scenes where they are shown tending crops and using fishing nets.

As for the powhatan blog as has been said before, there talking about the disney movie, not the malick version.annoynmous (talk) 02:30, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
