• Comment The Turkish film magazine Sinema has written something about the film: [https://archive.org/details/sinema-dergisi-ekim-2009/page/n13/mode/2up?q=%22OceanWorld+3D%22]. Low res scan, hard to even transcribe that. --Mika1h (talk) 12:37, 15 May 2025 (UTC)

• Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources.

     The article notes: "OceanWorld 3D is the first feature-length nature documentary ever filmed and released in 3D, using the 3D large format underwater digital, boasting naturally beautiful views you can also smell and touch, thanks to the filmmakers' use of natural lighting. The 85-minute movie was created by Jean-Michel Cousteau, son of the celebrated underwater explorer Jacques-Yves Cousteau, directed by Jean-Jacques Mantello, and co-produced by Disneynature and 3D Entertainment chairman Francois Mantello ... OceanWorld 3D is reminiscent of Pixar's animated movie Finding Nemo, a comedic yet eventful journey ... The film also reminds us to appreciate the richness of the ocean, as well as to preserve its biodiversity."

     The article notes: "Disneynature has acquired North American and Mexican rights to 3D Entertainment’s OceanWorld 3D, the first feature-length nature documentary filmed in 3D. OceanWorld 3D premiered at the Cannes market in May and will be released theatrically in France and Russia in August. The North American release date will be announced in due course. The film explores the world’s oceans and their wildlife from the Great Barrier Reef in Australia and Argentina’s Peninsula Valdez to Mexico’s Roca Partida Island."

     The review notes: "In ‘Oceanworld 3D’ zien we de wonderlijke onderwaterwereld door de ogen van een migrerende zeeschildpad. Bruisende koraalriffen, die fungeren als ware eldorado’s voor een bonte verscheidenheid aan kleurrijke vissen en schaaldieren, ondiepe kustwateren en de onmetelijke blauwe leegte die de open oceaan vaak is, alle zeebiotopen komen in feite aan bod in deze onder supervisie van Jean-Michel Cousteau (de zoon van de illustere documentairemaker en oceaanverkenner Jacques) geproduceerde documentaire. Qua vorm is ‘Oceanworld’ een aparte film. Niet alleen speelt de film handig in op de huidige hype rondom 3D-producties, maar opvallend genoeg wordt het verhaal verteld door een reizende zeeschildpad."

     From Google Translate: "In ‘Oceanworld 3D’ we see the wonderful underwater world through the eyes of a migrating sea turtle. Vibrant coral reefs, which function as true Eldorados for a colorful variety of colorful fish and crustaceans, shallow coastal waters and the immense blue emptiness that the open ocean often is, all marine biotopes are in fact covered in this documentary produced under the supervision of Jean-Michel Cousteau (the son of the illustrious documentary maker and ocean explorer Jacques). In terms of form, ‘Oceanworld’ is a special film. Not only does the film cleverly play into the current hype surrounding 3D productions, but remarkably enough the story is told by a traveling sea turtle."

     The review notes: "Belgesel, dünyamızın yaşam kaynağı clan okyanusların içinde barındırdığı güzelliği ve cesitliliği mahtesem görün- tülerle anlatıyor. İzleyiciler deniz kaplumbağa-hrının rehberliğinde Avustralya'dan Arjantin'e ve Meksika yakınlarındaki Roca Partida Adasa'na yani köpekbalıklarının evine doğru büyü leyici bir yolculuğa çıkıyor. Seyirci yolculuk boyunca köpekbaldarmin avlanmalarımı, yunus- ları oyunlarım ve çesit cesit balığın dansini izliyor; deniz canlılarının yaşamlarına yakından sahit oluyor. Notlar: Jean-Jacques ve François Mantello kardeşler 40 dakikalık ve 3 boyutlu gösterilen 3 belgeselden (Ocean Wonderland, Sharks, Dolphins and Whales 3D: Tribes of the Ocean) sonra ilk uzun metraja belgesellerine imza attı. Yine 3 boyutlu gösterilecek olan "Oceanworld" tam 7 yıllık çalışmanın ürünü. Bu belgesel için 25 farklı bölgede toplem 200 santlik çekim yapıldı. Yani bir açıdan önceki ic belgeselin birleştirilmiş ve genişletilmiş versiyo nu da denebilir "Oceanworld" için. Belgeselin anlaticist ise, Fransız sinemasın yükselen yıl diz ve Oscar' aktrisi Marion Cotillard."

     From Google Translate: "The documentary tells the beauty and diversity of the oceans, which are the source of life on our world, with magnificent images. Under the guidance of a sea turtle, the audience goes on a fascinating journey from Australia to Argentina and to Roca Partida Island near Mexico, the home of sharks. Throughout the journey, the audience watches sharks hunting, dolphins playing and various fish dancing; they witness the lives of marine creatures up close. Notes: After 3 40-minute documentaries screened in 3D (Ocean Wonderland, Sharks, Dolphins and Whales 3D: Tribes of the Ocean), Jean-Jacques and François Mantello brothers have made their first feature-length documentary. "Oceanworld", which will also be screened in 3D, is the product of 7 years of work. A total of 200 centimeters of shooting was done in 25 different regions for this documentary. In other words, "Oceanworld" can be considered a combined and expanded version of the previous documentary. The narrator of the documentary is French cinema's rising star and Oscar-winning actress Marion Cotillard."

  There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow OceanWorld 3D to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

• Redirect to Disneynature: The film doesn't seem notable enough. Sources provided doesn't seem independent or reliable. The Screen Daily one looks like a press release. Cine Magazine isn't a RS. — Itzcuauhtli11 (talk) 21:11, 16 May 2025 (UTC)
• :Cine Magazine has been used as a RS for dozens of AfDs over the years. Consensus says it is. Regardless, Cunard has listed multiple other citations that you failed to evaluate. DonaldD23 talk to me 23:53, 16 May 2025 (UTC)
• ::Could you elaborate on why is Cine Magazine a reliable source? Seems to me it's an online magazine, where anyone can apply to be a film reviewer, and those film reviewers aren't paid for the position. — Itzcuauhtli11 (talk) 19:22, 18 May 2025 (UTC)
• Keep: Sources listed above are enough for GNG. Somebodyidkfkdt (talk) 01:57, 17 May 2025 (UTC)
• Keep strong, upon checking the additional sources, it does meet WP:GNG. Not arguing about maybe a redirect/merge but definitely not a deletion per WP:ATD. HilssaMansen19 (talk) 09:40, 23 May 2025 (UTC)
