It's useless and dated information, debating about stuff that has already been proven one way or another. It actually makes the page look bad to see how much arguing or debating or wrong guesses we had BEFORE the film actually came out.... LOL.

But we should NOT remove any small general stuff that is not obviously "dated". Conversations about guns or tactics in a film that are still relevant and interesting to a new member NOW, should be kept. Stuff like that.

I like this philosophy. We should keep interesting discussion and promote readability of the discussion pages (as much as possible given mediawiki's discussion structure) while removing useless, dated, and just plain wrong information.
