The Movie Guys[edit]

This website or "entertainment and comedy brand" does not pass WP:GNG, WP:WEB, or WP:NCORP. I searched Google, Google News, Google News Archives, Google Books, Google Scholar, and Newspapers.com with combinations of "Movie Guys", "Paul Preston", "Adam Witt", "TMG Interview", and "Ford Fiesta" without finding any useful sources. Most of what I found were false positives and the rest were passing mentions. Of the current references, the Voyage LA and Shout Out LA sources are both WP:INTERVIEW content and therefore not secondary or independent. I'm also having a hard time figuring out who the author of these sources are or at least who did the interviewing and I'm unconvinced by the reliability of the sources. The Post-Journal sources is pretty clearly a WP:TRIVIALMENTION. The remaining sources currently being cited are primary, self-published, or promotional. I opened a WP:PROD, but Closedcap14 removed the tag with the comment "Added additional citations". I asked them to present sources to demonstrate notability on the talk page, but I had yet to receive a response so I decided to open an WP:AFD.
