The Harder They Come (film) - Plot section, Re: "alternate endings"

Hello Safety Cap,

I almost posted on the discussion page before editing the article. The original text of the article (that you reverted to) says there are two "alternate endings", and the difference is between the subtitled and non-subtitled versions. I am 99.9% sure this is inaccurate, primarily because I have seen both versions, which may qualify as impermissible "independent research", I don't know.

The difference between the two endings is very minor. The final shot lasts a few seconds longer in one version, making it slightly more obvious that Ivan is in fact dead. In the version with a longer final shot, a policeman disarms Ivan's corpse. After this shot, there is the gyrating female pelvis and the end credits.

The text that I removed from the article implied (but did not explicitly state) that the final 10 minutes were changed, not just a few seconds. Also, the Salon article linked as a source does not corroborate the preceding statement. I guess that is "not in source given".

I did some Googling, and my memory seems to be correct. The difference is very minor, but it was trumped up because the short version makes some people doubt whether Ivan is dead. I think it was obvious in both versions that he is dead.

You're absolutely correct. I realized I revered in error and reverted the revert. :) Please accept my apologies. Safety Cap (talk) 02:03, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

No worries.24.91.17.163 (talk) 02:04, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

This Whisperback stuff is confusing, I don't normally edit Wikipedia. How about I make a quick note on the Discussion page for the movie's article, and then you can delete this conversation from your talk page if you want?24.91.17.163 (talk) 02:11, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

Heh - yeah, that sounds like a good idea. Safety Cap (talk) 02:13, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

Happy Halloween!

Wilhelmina Will has given you some caramel and a candy apple! Caramel and candy-coated apples are fun Halloween treats, and promote WikiLove on Halloween. Hopefully these have made your Halloween (and the proceeding days) much sweeter. Happy Halloween!

If Trick-or-treaters come your way, add {{subst:Halloween apples}} to their talkpage with a spoooooky message!

Cheers! Wilhelmina Will (talk) 05:09, 31 October 2011 (UTC)

Invitation to the December Wikification Drive

Hi there! I thought you might be interested in WikiProject Wikify's December Wikification Backlog Elimination Drive. We'll be trying to reduce the backlog size by over 1,000 articles and we need your help! Hard-working participants in the drive will receive awards for their contributions, including a brand new one for the single largest wikified article! All you have to do is put an asterisk next to the largest article you've wikified, and coordinators will check its wordcount after the drive ends. If you have a spare moment, please join and wikify an article or tell your friends. Thanks!

Note: The drive starts December 1, and you can sign up today!

Your invitation to participate in a Wikimedia-approved survey in online behavior.

Hello, my name is Michael Tsikerdekis [1][2], currently involved as a student in full time academic research at Masaryk University. I am writing to you to kindly invite you to participate in an online survey about interface and online collaboration on Wikipedia. The survey has been reviewed and approved by the Wikimedia Foundation Research Committee.

I am contacting you because you were randomly selected from a list of active editors. The survey should take about 7 to 10 minutes to complete, and it is very straightforward.

Wikipedia is an open project by nature. Let’s create new knowledge for everyone! :-)

To take part in the survey please follow the link: tsikerdekis.wuwcorp.com/pr/survey/?user=38524462 (HTTPS).

Best Regards, --Michael Tsikerdekis (talk) 12:16, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

PS: The results from the research will become available online for everyone and will be published in an open access journal. As a thank you for your efforts and participation in Wikipedia Research you will receive a Research Participation Barnstar after the end of the study.
