Rotten Tomatoes Changes

I've taken liberties to update the percentages and number of reviews, but am curious as to what to do about the "Overall" and "Cream of the Crop" headings. These have been changed on RT and now are reflected as "All Critics" and "Top Critics." I've changes the latter, but left the former, as I feel "Overall" provides a better sense of what the numbers represent. --75.100.22.121 (talk) 06:25, 26 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind. I went ahead and changed "Overall" to "All Critics," as it looked out of place otherwise. --75.100.22.121 (talk) 06:29, 26 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

An image used in this article, File:Ocean's Trilogy.jpg, has been nominated for speedy deletion at Wikimedia Commons for the following reason: Copyright violations

What should I do?

If the image has already been deleted you may want to try Commons Undeletion Request

Logan Lucky

I removed the See also section with a link to Logan Lucky. It is another heist film directed by Steven Sodebergh but that alone is not a good reason to add it without any context or explanation. The film includes a joke where the press refer to the heist crew as "Ocean's Seven-Eleven" but that still is not a good reason to add it to the article as a single item list.

I don't think Logan Lucky should be added to this article at all. But if someone really wanted to add it then maybe they could find a few critics (reliable sources) comparing Logan Lucky to Ocean's Eleven, and explaining with text how it was influenced by or connected to this film series, then just maybe it would be worth mentioning. It should be clearly explained why it is included, readers should not need to figure out that it is another heist film from the same director, and that he made a joke about it being like Ocean's Eleven, or that critics compared it to Ocean's Elven, if any of that actually is notable it should be clearly explained with text proper references. -- 109.76.144.223 (talk) 06:25, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ellen Barkin in Ocean's Twelve

It's true that Ellen Barkin appears in a deleted scene, but she's playing a different character than Abigail Sponder, who's the secondary antagonist of Ocean's Thirteen. In this iteration, she plays a Russian character discussing the heist with Linus Caldwell (Matt Damon). Just bringing awareness to that so the information wouldn't mislead the readers. Those who know how to fix the article, though, I leave it up to you. --ZeroMinusTen (talk) 13:54, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
