- Speedy Keep. Per Mrschimpf. Also as the sequel to a major motion picture. I'm not sure why the nom felt this failed ]
Merge to aWP:GNG. It needs mentioning somewhere, just not in its own article. Create a section in the original film's article. BIGNOLE (Contact me) 15:22, 25 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]- Keep - as Michael has found some reviews to satisfy WP:NOTE. Unless the same can be done for those direct-to-video sequels that follow this one, then I still say someone should put a merge proposal and place them at either Kickboxer or Kickboxer 2.

- This movie is notable. Why does it meet WP:NOTE you ask? Well, because NOTE requires "significant coverage from reliable, third-party sources independent of the subject". Schuym1 (talk) 21:01, 25 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- good points Bignole. talk) 23:00, 25 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- good points Bignole.
- SPEEDY Keep as notability is not temporary. One can easily understand that as the second in a successful series of films, that it would have been covered at the time of its release 18 years ago, and there were multiple comparisons made to its predecessor. That fact that these pre-internet/pre-wikipedia reviews or commentaries are now difficult to find, does not mean that they did not then exist. However, I did find a few lengthy reviews... Entertainment Weekly, TV GUIDE, Bad Movie Knights, Kung Fu Cinema, and others at [1][2]... With respects to the nom. its a keeper. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 20:37, 25 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: Passes ]
- Strong keep As easily as Michael found reviews, there is no point to redirect the other articles as review are probably just as readily available for them too. talk) 23:00, 25 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
