Sequel Filming

[edit]

I am aware that the sequel is currently filming in top secrecy because this was revealed in local Spanish language news outlets a while ago as beginning May 10th for a projected Easter 2020 release, given the movie is being filmed in the same locations as the original film and Gibson has made it a top secret project again. But can we please have direct confirmation the production is actually occurring? I cannot find an English source yet and the original Spanish source is difficult to relocate. Thanks.

Turns out that "sequel is currently filming in top secrecy" actually means "nothing is happening but we want people to think something is happening". Andrew Englehart (talk) 01:19, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Filming dates

[edit]

I have failed to locate a reliable source for the dates of filming in Italy, first on location and then in the studios at Cinecitta.

The current dates given are incorrect, and the source link is dead. I suspect that the wording of the now-dead non-viewable linked article was ambiguous, possibly referring only to the filming portion in the town of Craco (Basilicata). I do not know how reliable the now-gone source was.

Unless a source is found, maybe with only approximate filming dates (it was Nov. 2002 to May-June 2003) I would like to suggest removing the unsourced and inaccurate dates. Apollinari (talk) 02:20, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I see no reliable sources anywhere for commencement of principal photography on a sequel. I have re-instated the redirect to this article, as decided by the previous discussion. Fred Zepelin (talk) 17:18, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Film dub

[edit]

On February 7, 2017, 20th Century Fox re-released the film on Blu-ray and DVD featuring both cuts, with the theatrical version being dubbed in English and Spanish;[67] this marks the first time the film has ever been dubbed in another language.

The film has a Portuguese dubbed version since 2015 [1] [2]

Category:Obscenity controversies?

[edit]

Why is there a category Category:Obscenity controversies in the article? Just because of this part "and some of the crude language used by the Roman soldiers was not translated in the subtitles"? Was the "crude language" really something that caused controversy? Is that really enough of a thing to include such a category? Checking the history, I found that the category was included in this edition. I consider removing that category, as no lewd controversy has been pointed out about the film. The controversy is more related to violent content. ✍A.WagnerC (talk) 17:37, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Given that it was added by an IP who hasn't edited since 2013, you'd probably be well within your rights to remove it. I note that the film was criticized for excessive violence, and that there's a subsection discussing that, but whether that constitutes obscenity isn't something I have a strong opinion on.

Vaporware announcements about possible sequel

[edit]

I did find a softonic.com update about the vapor-sequel on the Wayback Machine, dated December 2023, but it's very vague and doesn't specify where the info published is coming from. Given that there have been at least a dozen sketchy announcements about a sequel filming in the last few years and absolutely none of them have panned out by the predicted dates that filming was supposedly commencing, I really think that unless an extremely reliable source published some concrete info, there's no reason to clutter up the "Sequel" section with Hollywood-hype press-release leaks to non-notable outlets and authors. Otherwise it will just be a long section of fake announcements from questionable sources. Andrew Englehart (talk) 01:26, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
