Prod was removed without explanation. Concern was: Film is in pre-production per WP:NFF. BOVINEBOY2008 12:31, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete No news indication that it has started filming. Also not listed as being in-production by Seven Arts Link MadCow257 (talk) 13:30, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
* Keep Reference in article cites Seven Arts news site with article from last year indicates it is in the bullpen.Srobak (talk) 13:51, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. "In the bullpen" is not synonymous with "in production". WP:NFF clearly states that "films that have not been confirmed by reliable sources to have commenced principal photography should not have their own articles" and goes on to state that "sources must be used to confirm the start of principal photography after shooting has begun". Not the case here, so a clear delete. --Rob Sinden (talk) 14:39, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- So noted, and I concede my support above. Srobak (talk) 17:19, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per WP:TOOSOON. If there had been persistant and ongoing in-depth coverage of the events surrounding its production, it might, repeat "might" have had merit as one of those rare and allowed exceptions to WP:NFF. But we do not have the required persistance or depth. As its pre-production is sourcable, and had there been an artcle on the director, I might have suggested a merge and redirect per WP:FUTURE and WP:Planned Films. We can delete now without prejudice and bring the article back once principle filming has been confirmed. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 19:29, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
