Release date

I don't know whether I can come up with any documentation, but the film was first screened in 1990, not 1991. However the 1991 version was slightly different, so perhaps that's why that date is used. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 05:44, 17 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ah! Found it in a 1991 review ([1]): "Since this review first ran in the summer of 1990, Slacker has been picked up for national distribution, blown up to 35mm and fine tuned in a few places." I'll add a cite when I have another minute. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 00:27, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Done I finally added this info to the text, with a few citations. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 18:55, 9 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

DVD release

Unfortunately the DVD was not released worldwide. Up to now there was no release in Germany, one of the biggeste DVD markets in Europe.

Slacker on YouTube

As evidenced by YouTube endorsed vendor FilmBuff, Slacker is available on YouTube in full length for free viewing. I believe my edit was therefore removed either in a superficial manner or in bad faith. // Gargaj (talk) 15:58, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There is nothing on YouTube, nor on the uploader's own website, that indicates this is a permitted, licensed, and/or otherwise legitimate use of the work. (I've never heard of a "YouTube endorsed vendor," and couldn't find anything about that on YouTube.) Granted, if it isn't legit, it's hard to understand how someone would get away with this while maintaining such a high profile. If we have evidence that this YouTube upload is indeed legit, then all we really need is a simple {{YouTube|id = jB4xlYKAVCQ|title = Slacker}} in the External links section. Thanks, -- Gyrofrog (talk) 17:08, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The second link (a
blog) is confusing, it says a dozen films are available for (paid) rental. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 16:23, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply

Removed Lead too short tag

I removed the lead too short tag per
WP:DETAG. Tag was placed with no discussion on talk page and the lead seems adequate length for this short article. Also, it seems difficult to provide a quick blurb for a film that's basically plotless. Not sure what brief content from article could be added to the lead to expand it. --DynaGirl (talk) 14:02, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply
