I know that IMDb isn't reliable. I remember vividly about that David Chapelle was a voice actor for Metal Gear Solid 2 according to them, but I think they may have corrected their mistake. Do you guys know anything obvious, any links that could prove my point?

The IMDB has more credibility than your theory.
?_?

My theory is that the IMDb publish anything, hence they are not credible. And this is less credible than the fact that they are doing so?

And while we're at it, Paul McCartney isn't dead... ;oP

I'm talking about your BTTF remake posts on that board.

And I know Paul's not dead, it's...know what? Nevermind. I shouldn't have to explain it, it's more fun this way.

They remake everything, so I am sure it's going to be done anyway... This as nothing to do with the fact that IMDb isn't reliable...
 
IMDB is often not credible. My roommate is an actor and listed on IMDB. Someone uploaded a bunch of information about him that's not true. It was as if someone from his high school days threw up sketchy information based on vague recollections.

Not much of a proof in and of itself, but this happens all the time.

Imdb is not very credible. They use normal people like us to update. It seems like, if someone tells them that they read so & so, they'll use whatever that person said.

I remember when they had Kirsten Dunst listed as playing Jane Saunders on the 3rd season of 24. I believe this rumor got started on the official FOX 24 forum. Apparently, Imdb bought it.

IMDB has never heard of DJ Kat, the kids show starring a puppet cat from the late 80's. That should be enough proof for you.

My elementary teacher opposed the show's spelling of "kat."
