Category talk:Action

I don't think any of these new categories are necessary. - Kaiju No. 14 (talk) 2:50, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

les created the comedy category and there's a category for disaster films -Zillaman98 (talk) 01:53, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

Again, I think this category describes too many pieces of media on the site to be useful.--Astounding Beyond Belief (talk) 01:55, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

I'm honestly not sure what counts as an action film here except for the stuff i added -Zillaman98 (talk) 01:56, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

For starters, you could make a case for most of the Godzilla films. Genres are reliably blurry and subjective, and I don't think there's a non-painful way to add all the basic ones to this site. Hashing out what movies we're going to cover is difficult enough.--Astounding Beyond Belief (talk) 02:02, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

I think we need a vote. - Kaiju No. 14 (talk) 2:57, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

Why? I haven't seen any real argument for having these categories.--Astounding Beyond Belief (talk) 02:07, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

Les Made a Category for comedy so why not other genres?-Zillaman98 (talk) 03:47, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

We cover significantly fewer films that can be categorized as comedy than "action" or "science fiction." Categories are meant to serve a purpose, and it sort of becomes moot when they are so broad that almost anything could fall under them. Les (main | talk) 03:53, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
