I've added some new categories and tried to add to them enough to flesh out the page some more. Feel free to help!

Plagarism?

Which part of The Rain Man was plagarized by Cho Seung-Hui? I've never heard of this. --70.240.220.180 03:10, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

It was the bit about "I hate his ass hole face". That entire scene from his "play" is almost verbatim from The Weather Man. But the poster underneath this is correct, it's not worthy of being in this encyclopedia.

To be honest, I could care less that the movie was plagiarized by a killer; where is the significance in it? Aren't works being plagiarized on a daily basis? Why should it stand out that this person in particular plagiarized the film? The reason for which he is famous is because he was a killer; not because he was a writer. The entire phenomena around this boy and the stigmatic response to his stimulus has been superfluous and blown out of proportion; I find the quotation absolutely unsuitable and useless and I will be removing it.

Dramedy

Is there a source for the assertion that this film is a dramedy?Hobson (talk) 23:43, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Have reverted the edit - it seems to me that "dramatic film with dark comedic elements" will make more sense to the average reader than dramedy, and they mean roughly the same thing. Hobson (talk) 18:54, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
