Miller was a major player in the film biz, and was widely noted in terms of getting a new film biz off the ground, working with Michael Miller and Kroger Babb, among other big players. The Miller-Consolidated Pictures article has a filmography of their work (which is currently improper for the article here as written). More expansion is forthcoming, that's why it's a stub. --badlydrawnjeff talk 10:56, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Really? Would mind explaining why such a "major player" gets only two credits at IMDB? Why the entire Miller-Consolidated Pictures filmography at IMDB is three (3) films? Why searching for John Miller through Google Books seems to turn up only two references to him, the only visible one being a passing reference in relation to a different movie-maker (Robert Clarke and The Hideous Sun Demon on page 65 of Horror at the Drive-In: Essays in Popular Americana, edited by Gary Don Rhodes)?*

If you're going to be a policy wonk, perhaps you should note ALL policies -- such as WP:V, WP:CITE, and WP:Reliable sources -- come back when you're ready to add actual content instead of vague promises. --Calton | Talk 13:14, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

*The Hideous Sun Demon, BTW, gets 55 pages in 12 books at Google Books and Kroger Babb gets 77 pages in 13 books. Roger Corman, an actual major player, gets 3,010 pages in 204 books.

That's what I get for writing this when I did. He's a big player in the area of film he worked in, not necessarily to the level of Roger Corman. I'm quite aware of the policies, I forgot to add the BoxOffice reference to this one - it happens. I've got this set for expansion once I'm done with Kroger Babb. --badlydrawnjeff talk 13:19, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

John Miller is a movie!?

I think this should be changed to John Miller (film producer). If makes sense. The occasional idiot who comes along might think John Miller was a movie. 24.83.3.54 02:41, 18 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
