AnonymousAnarky (talk) 06:07, 16 October 2017 (UTC) The Plot Was Posted On IMB Another With Casting. Also I Watched the Movie and the plot on there site is exactly like the Movie[reply]

Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format. SparklingPessimist ^{Scream at me!} 06:27, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Typos in the Production section. Take the "it" out of "The mask it was constructed." And change the spelling of American Tale to American Tail. 208.253.132.135 (talk) 01:39, 19 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Plot

The first sentence in the plot section ends with "after a drunken romp the previous evening." However, midway through the movie, Carter told Tree that nothing happened between them the previous night because she was too drunk. I think the phrase "drunken romp" implies otherwise. --Ratha K (talk) 04:14, 28 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Revertion of changes

Hi! I'm a bit confused as to why the changes [1] have been reverted multiple times. The current version failed WP:INFOBOXCITE, WP:SEAOFBLUE, WP:TRIVIA and has an overkill in the amount of quotes being used. I don't agree that having two paragraphs about an alternative ending is warranted. If anything, this could be done in a single sentence in the plot section.

So first off, this:

Happy Death Day is a 2017 American black comedy slasher film directed by Christopher Landon, and written by Scott Lobdell. It stars Jessica Rothe and Israel Broussard.

is not a sea of blue. There are two linked compound terms in a row. It is far better English than your version:

Happy Death Day is a 2017 American slasher film directed by Christopher Landon, and written by Scott Lobdell. It stars Jessica Rothe and Israel Broussard featuring black comedy.

since your modifier is completely misplaced there... is Broussard featuring black comedy?

Anyway, two links in a row is hardly a sea of blue.

Your INFOBOXCITE edits may be acceptable (although I've frequently seen box office figures quoted in film infoboxes) but whether there's an over-use of quotations is your subjective opinion.

There was no need to remove the entire writing section as it's more developed than most film articles. —Joeyconnick (talk) 22:35, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
