Thinly reworded of [1].

I added that link as an external reference. With that, plus the rewording, I suspect we're ok. However, I'll try checking with the copyright owners to see if they want to raise an objection. Martin

I edited the page to remove the "Dean DuBlois said that ..." stuff -- it would be nice to have attributed quotes, but since the stuff they said is fairly generic and not direct quotes, I don't see a need to attribute it. I also removed some things which to me sounded questionable or didn't make much sense. I believe the article now is not just a copy of the copyrighted page linked above.

Some of the items listed as evidence of a Phantom Menace influence (like a Galactic Federation and hyperspace) long predate 1999 (and 1977 for that matter). George Lucas didn't invent science fiction. MK 06:21, 3 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Yes, I fully agree. On the other hand Wikipedia does not have enough good articles on science fiction to make links to support these things and dropping names like Damon Knight, Poul Anderson and Harry Harrison is not enough. I was planning to start to "balance" that section by adding another one on parallels with Star Trek and then graduate to more classic written things, but it fell by the wayside. What were you thinking of doing? AlainV 22:43, 3 Sep 2004 (UTC)

• Ummm, writing that last note? Seriously, while I know enough science fiction history to recognize some errors in the article, I don't know enough to post the correct facts. I'd be more likely to just substitute my errors for the existing ones. I figured I'd call attention to the problem and hope someone better informed on the subject would come along and make the revisions. MK 03:56, 4 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Someone deleted the entire "Parodies and references" section without comment, which is being a bit overly bold. However, that section did have a lot of questionable info - notably the supposed Star Wars/Star Trek connections, which as as mentioned above involve elements that were well established in science fiction before Lucas and Roddenberry used them, or that are common dramatic conceits. I've deleted those sections and added the Miyazaki reference (admitted by Dean DeBlois). Ergative rlt 21:17, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 1985

Could someone fill in info about the whole '1985' thing? There's the "1985 concept sketch" of Stitch, but not a single shred of information on how it came to take 17 years to produce. Did it sit in an idea vault? Were there any scrapped official tries? Anything? I'd love to know =) --76.213.168.86 07:58, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] He Mele No Lilo

This is really random, but I can dance to it. And I'm a male. o_O Cruise meerkat 23:33, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Live Action Movie?

I read something in this article about a live action version that even named actors, but it had no referances. As far as I know, this isn't going to happen. If it is, a referance is greatly appreciated. Until then, I think it better that the unsourced information be removed sooner than later, so that in the likely chance it's wrong, people won't be misinformed. Ovni 18:25, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Parodies, References & Trivia

I moved this section further down the page because it was disrupting the flow of the article. It is also way too long, and Wikipedia clearly states that trivia sections are discouraged. If someone has time, I suggest reading Wikipedia's suggestions on how to trim down this section, or even remove it entirely. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fluffyblue (talk • contribs) 04:40, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
