List of cultural references to Apocalypse Now[edit]

This article is essentially a directory of loosely associated topics that are not made significant as a result of having Apocalypse Now mentioned. This is essentially a list of trivia that has been put together by the editors themselves. Erik (talk • contrib) - 18:04, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. I love the smell of deletion in the morning... Carlossuarez46 18:49, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oh god, please don't quote the film, people will use it as an excuse to keep the article. Delete per nom, WP:TRIV, WP:OR, WP:NOT, the rest of the usual alphabet soup. Otto4711 19:20, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You know what's funny, I was going to say the same thing, Otto. Of course, I think it's accepted in AfDs to make joke commentaries on the challenged article. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 19:31, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think that comment was itself a joke. Maybe it should be added to the article. ObiterDicta ( pleadings • errata • appeals ) 03:08, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I couldn't help myself. If you want to add it, better hurry, cause it looks like it's going bye-bye. Carlossuarez46 21:45, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, OR, unsourced, violates WP:TRIVIA. Corvus cornix 18:53, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete original research, loose collection of trivia. As with these lists in general, much of this goes far afield. Example: "The X-Files episode "Musings of a Cigarette Smoking Man" contains a sequence that is modeled after Captain Willard's briefing near the beginning of the film." Huh, it does? There's no source for this and unless there are production notes verifying this is true, mere similarity does not mean that one scene was "modeled" after the other.
