your question makes no sense. The cast name is taken from the dvd. If the full name is shown then that should be used.

what ever is shown should be used so that there can be no argument about what is correct. (to stop ping ponging)

I agree with pauls.  You question doesn't make sense.  I just did a cast list that included first and last names.  In some cases there was even a middle name.

What you see on the screen in the credits is what you type into the profile. Easy Peasy.

This might sound shocking, but IMDB has been wrong before.

Mike:

What involvement did IMDb have in the Production of any film at anytime? Can you name ANY film that they have produced? I think not. We use the film's credits  and ONLY the film's credits, with rare exceptions. What you do locally is your business. It's THAT simple, Mike.

Never saw anything more stupid...

Look:

Does that mean that dvdprofiler is not the marvellous program that we know?

I think IMDb is the best site about movies, even if there are many mistakes, as in most human made work.

I also think that anti IMDb war here is not correct. I understand that Ken doesn't want IMDb datas to be copied for legal reasons, but that doesn't make IMDb a bad site.

I never said anything like that, Yves. I have never seen any comment from you that was more stupid.

We USE the data of the filmmakers, that provided by the FILM CREDITS.

Use your head for a change. Instead of being pedantic and insulting.

BTW as wityh nearly every post you have made of late your comment was unnecessary and delinberately iunsulting and inflammatory....so you get flamed.

Of course Invelos has nothing to do with it, no one has claimed so, BUT the DVD credits certainly do.

Talk about stupid.

The point is not that Invelos is bad, but the the credits are the ONLY acceptable source to retrieve the credits from.

Your lack of comprehension skills ius simply astounding, Yves. Maybe you should stick to French, hopefully they are better in your native language.

Yes, I am being sarcastic.

Judging by your second comment I see you are referring to the cast role. And the simple answer is: we taken roles exactly as credited or WYSIWYG. Any other way is pure speculation and/or not official.
