[#8924]- Recent Entry Ref
Record number: 8924

Title: Qaidi
Medium: Movie
Actress: 2 unknowns

Description: This is an old Bolywood Movie (1980s/1990s).

The wife and sister of the hero is kidnapped by the villain.
They are bound standing, arm behind their back to a large
frame inside a warehouse. No gag. Occur on the last 15
minutes.

___________

Mark these incase a title mix-up?:

Do Qaidi (1989)- (Farha)
Prem Qaidi (1991)- (Karishma Kapoor, sounds romancey)
Paanch Qaidi (1981)
Veta (1986)...aka Farrar Qaidi (Jayapradha)

Favoured:
Qaidi (1984)

Madhvi
Vidya Sinha
Hema Malini- (Likely the mother?)

Sounding musicalish, but we have Farha to image search on.

> Prem Qaidi (1991)- (Karishma Kapoor, sounds romancey)

This one sounds like Karishma as a high class gal that falls for a boy from a lower class. As usual, Daddy disapproves and interfers, etc.

Figure "The hero have a twin that gone bad" plot doesn't fit into this huh?

> Paanch Qaidi (1981)

Sounds like action? We have Sarika to image search on

> Veta (1986)...aka Farrar Qaidi (Jayapradha)

Found double spelling for image search, both as above and Jaya Pradha.

> Qaidi (1984)

Image search Madhvi, Vidya Sinha,
Suspect Hema Malini the mother if it?

So there'll be a transitional format using "Actress: Jane Doe (voice)" and "Actress: Unknown (voice)" before the Voice field is added?

And how will that field be incorporated? Will animated scenes forego the Actress field and simply display "Voice: Jane Doe"?

Are you saying you want animated entries to be labeled as such in the description ... in addition to the presence of the Voice field, which would indicate that they are?

Look over the list and let me know.

One entry used "animation" (CELEBRITY DEATHMATCH) ... another used "CGI animated" (MAX STEEL). That's all I saw beyond the "Puppet" usage. I'll change the MAX STEEL entry to "Animated". Dunno about DEATHMATCH, which is in Claymation ... or the puppet entries, for that matter. I think they're sort of a breed apart.

What do you think?

Probably not. There's little reason to do so.

No, it will be an additional data point.

Puppets, CGI, cartoons, all voice. But again, I don't
want you changing anything. This all FYI for upcoming
changes, a chance for your input now.

Should be part of the Description. If it's marionettes,
claymation, animated, etc. that should be reflected.

The other possibility is to expand the Media types.

I wasn't clear from the earlier post whether you were indicating that ... I didn't know of any reason to do so, but this stuff's out of my comfort zone.

I was curious at to how will it actually look on the page ... if not the above, how will it be displayed?

Is that accomplishable technologically ... or will that info have to be input manually?

I think that might be the best solution ... to add an "Animated TV series", "Animated Movie" and possibly an "Animated Other" category.

As puppets and Claymation comprise only a handful of entries, I suppose it makes sense to lump them with drawn and CGIed scenes in the generic "animated" category ... but perhaps an instruction should be added asking entry authors to differentiate. I don't know how much good that would do ... I'm just thinking aloud here.
