To be removed

[edit]

I believe Groundhog Day should be removed from the list, because there are scenes before and after the magic day. Mateussf (talk) 03:15, 4 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Same with Jinge All The Way, the film starts the night before Christmas Eve.31.24.218.13 (talk) 11:28, 1 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Swooping in here three years later: any objections to removing Groudhog Day? It quite literally doesn't fit the label.207.181.237.56 (talk) 00:56, 4 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

questionable inclusions

[edit]
  • Rope (1948). "Two men hold a dinner party; among their guests are relatives of the man they have murdered"
If it is about a dinner party, it is not about 24 hour day; I don't think "happened all in one day" is a defining characteristic. There are lots of movies essentially about a dinner party...including My dinner with Andre and "L.A. Stories" or something like that. Put into a new List of works about dinner parties or similar list-article and corresponding category. This list-article is where the day itself is important. --Doncram (talk) 06:25, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Run Lola Run (1998). "A woman has to raise 100,000 Deutsche Mark in twenty minutes to save her boyfriend's life."
Not about a day. Show me a source where the day-ness is emphasized. This instead should be in List of time loop films (currently a redlink, but an obviously valid topic); it is already in Category:Time loop films. Some discussion at Talk:Run Lola Run already. --Doncram (talk) 06:25, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
