title incorrect

the movie is called "wolfs"

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15489576/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0 207.34.44.70 (talk) 18:35, 29 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

IMDb depends on user contributions, like Wikipedia. See WP:IMDB. We need to wait until a reliable source reports a title change. Mike Allen 19:10, 29 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Filming

Please find reliable sources about the film after the conclusion of the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike. The Media Expert (talk) 00:19, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Official poster

Please upload the official poster of Wolfs to Wikipedia. The Media Expert (talk) 23:11, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Title

Given the strange title of the movie, it would be nice if it could be explained (with citation). Kdammers (talk) 18:14, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I dont have a citation, but I thought it was obviously a hommage to Pulp Fiction, where Mr. Wolf was the legendary "fixer". Hence, these two guys are Wolfs. 2A01:C23:9166:500:6110:E7D0:40C8:882D (talk) 11:02, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. that sounds likely. I found this in the NYT review: "Clooney and Pitt play underworld fixers, the kind of misterioso professionals whom people with power and money hire to clean up their messes. Much like the character in Quentin Tarantino’s “Pulp Fiction” played by Harvey Keitel — named Winston Wolfe but known as the Wolf — the fixers here swoop in and, with some elbow grease and a duffel bag large enough to hold a body, discreetly make the problem go away, or that’s the idea. Tarantino’s influence is conspicuous throughout “Wolfs,”" -- Is that enough to cite, or is it too thin? Kdammers (talk) 21:16, 17 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wolfs (film) → Wolfs
Wolfs → Wolfs (surname)

– Primary topic per pageviews.[1] 162 etc. (talk) 04:36, 19 September 2024 (UTC) — Relisting. ASUKITE 15:01, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support or at least DAB. Crouch, Swale (talk) 17:14, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support Wolfs → Wolfs (surname), oppose Wolfs (film) → Wolfs. "Wolfs" is such a plausible misspelling of "Wolves" that Wolfs should either become a disambiguation page (preferred) or, at the very least, a redirect towards Wolf (disambiguation) (not preferred since "Wolfs" is a misspelling of "Wolves".) Steel1943 (talk) 19:45, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose 1st, Support 2nd and redirect Wolfs to Wolf as clear primary redirect. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:12, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think there is enough likelihood of the incorrect plural to make no primary topic given that although the 1st Google results are for the film there are several results for the animal further down so at least I'd say no primary topic though a case could perhaps be made for the animal to be primary per WP:PLURALPT.

Relisting comment: So far we have support to move the surname, now looking to see if it is preferred to redirect Wolfs to Wolf (Wolf (disambiguation) would be a double-redirect), or something else ASUKITE 15:01, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wolf (disambiguation) is the title of a DAB not a redirect so there would be no double redirect issue. Crouch, Swale (talk) 16:35, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose 1st, support 2nd, support DAB, oppose primary redirect. No primary topic for "Wolfs", especially not an incorrect plural. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 19:32, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
