I don't know why you all assume that the Taglines I cited came from IMDb as I made no mention of IMDb in my post. The Taglines I cited actually came from Filmsite.org's Great Film Tag Lines.

I didn't assume that.  That's why Gunnar's comment about IMDb had me confused.

Doesn't matter where they came from.  The ones I pointed out are not taglines IMHO.

Glad to see that you admit that there is nothing in the Rules to support your assertion that font and color should be used to determine what is or is not part of the Overview.  That's all I was asking for.

Wait...wasn't hal involved in the original rules group?  Wouldn't that give him a "real background"?

It does not describe the movie or the plot.

It's a tagline that could apply to different movies (with different actors).

Interesting observation. 

The text in question can only apply to different movies with both Cary Grant and Doris Day in them.  Oh yeah, Touch of Mink is the ONLY film they did together.

.....and a "tagline" is typically unique to the film that it is associated with.

It most certainly describes the movie.

My mistake then. All that I checked matched IMDBs taglines, that's why I assumed they came from IMDB. Sorry for the confusion.

Let me amend my statement: Just because a third party website calls them taglines doesn't necessarily mean that I agree that they are in fact taglines.

I don't know about nitpicking or contradicting Hal, you do pretty well in that too. But your comment that the DIFFERENT typeface and color and even size did not preclude it from being part of the Overview was just silly and specious on its face . That has always been one of the primary discriminators about Overviews.


Ignoring your personal attack.....

According to what section of the Rules?


It's in the invisible implied intent section that only a few select have the power to see.

I would think that instead of majking smartass comments such as this, one just might pay some attention to someone so intimately involved in the Rules development process instead that he probably has a better idea about things involving than someone such as uourself that was NEVER involved at any level. I would listen to such a person were it me, but that's me




I don't care if you were the only person to write the rules, champ. Your actions since have proven you have zero credibility when it comes to the rules and how they should be followed.

I just checked this link. So The Color of Money was originally listed 16x9 because of info from the case. Then changed to 4x3 but with little documentation. So Winston Smith falsified documentation to get it changed back to 16x9 because the previous didn't follow the rules. great big WTF.

He was invovled in the writing process, he was NOT involved in the development and has no idea of the thought process behind most of it.    It's called seeing red when you type.
