A film that apparently didn't make a splash upon its 2012 release hasn't been released yet.[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2023413/] According to IMDb, the director[http://www.imdb.com/name/nm4628022/] and stars[http://www.imdb.com/name/nm4569467/][http://www.imdb.com/name/nm4567750/][http://www.imdb.com/name/nm4568402/][http://www.imdb.com/name/nm4568635/] have no other credits, which probably accounts for the lack of notice. Not to be confused with the 2010 Chilean short film.[http://www.festival-cannes.fr/en/archives/ficheFilm/id/11024523/year/2010.html] Clarityfiend (talk) 06:33, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

  • Delete per being TOOSOON. To quote from the article "Blokes is an upcoming Australian film". Okay. The article's sole source Cairns Post, states [http://www.cairns.com.au/article/2009/12/30/85105_local-news.html "Blokes movie filming in Far North"] and this was from December 2009. I did find another from December 2009 in North Queensland Register again sharing that it was filming at that time: [http://nqr.farmonline.com.au/news/state/agribusiness-and-general/general/nq-blokes-star-in-real-aussie-film/1707737.aspx "NQ blokes star in real Aussie film".] And his sponser "Just4Wd", shared some background and we learm that the the fimmaker began writing his script in 2007,[http://www.just4wd.com.au/component/features/?id=65&category=2&name=Success+Stories] but they are not exactly independent. The Townsville Bulletin shares that by January 2010 the film was completed.[http://www.townsvillebulletin.com.au/article/2010/01/07/105465_print.html] The film's [http://www.blokes.net.au/ official website] gives no clue to what happened to it over the last three years, but by the trailer it does appear something was shot. And though I am willing to believe [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2023413/ IMDB] that the thing is still in post-production and something may be released later this year... but pretty much, the lack of coverage shoots this one down. If the author wishes it back for continued work as user's draft, I say let him have it. It is far too premature for article space. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 07:47, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
  • Incubate/Userfy as per previous comment. With this sort of film there's no guarantee when it will be released or if it will be released at all, or that it will be notable if it eventually creeps out on DVD, download, or TV. And it's not currently meeting WP:NFILM. --Colapeninsula (talk) 11:47, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
  • Fine with incubation. As the film has a supposed 2012 release date, the article could benefit from collaborative editing away from mainspace. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 19:47, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
