Netflix series is live

Someone can update this now—the Netflix "Guardians of Justice" series is live. – AndyFielding (talk) 07:48, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What is this?

If the "bootleg universe" refers to Shakar's unauthorized fan films, why does this include every possible legitimate program he is involved in legally? What reason would the Netflix Castlevania series be a part of his "Bootleg universe?" BoosterBronze (talk) 21:53, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

because this isn't about 'bootleg' unauthorized films, it is just a dumb resume for a particularly bad filmmaker who checks a bunch of boxes for people concerned about skin tone, accent, and thoughts about children. This is a vanity page, not an encyclopedia. It should rightfully be removed, but it wont be because it serves a purpose for those who created it. This is how art dies. 2604:3D08:778A:2400:837:CE0D:9F32:CE32 (talk) 06:00, 28 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A reiteration: What is this?

This article repeatedly copies sections of other Wiki articles whole-cloth, and is formatted like a CV. Citations are desperately needed throughout. Prior revisions also show a confusing formatting style, with subsections on films and shows repeatedly changing the ordering of directors and actors depending on who is more well-known. What is this article meant to be, exactly: a page Adi Shankar can bring up during pitch meetings, or an article on his production companies? In either case there are established styles on how to format these types of pages, yet this one diverges so heavily to feel blatantly promotional. 134.50.132.202 (talk) 02:27, 9 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
