apparently someone didn't mean to mean to deliberately spread a misconception that this film was released 2 years earlier by accident by accident. the year is mentioned once across all articles related to the big fucking giant, and not as this film's release date cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 18:52, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep there seems to be a slightly common misconception that this film was released in 1987, so much so that the article was moved to this title and then later a duplicate article was created here (presumably by someone who thought there were two films or the 1989 one was wrong). So people will look for it at this title, and the redirect will educate them that they are incorrect and it's a 1989 film and discourage the creation of a duplicate article.

- Keep per Thryduulf. I also saw several references to this film being made in 1987, particularly on Fandom. (Admittedly, I do wonder if the origin of this error is actually Wikipedia itself. I couldn't really find many organic references for this misconception). - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 18:09, 7 September 2024 (UTC)
