List of films featuring prisons → List of films about prison – The list is currently WP:INDISCRIMINATE as it lists any film that contains a prison in it. The criteria for inclusion should be narrowed to films that specifically take place in prison. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 12:28, 20 August 2021 (UTC) _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 12:28, 20 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

move to List of prison films. Addresses nominator's scope concern while also being more natural. Colin M (talk) 20:53, 28 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Move to List of prison films. Seems the most logical approach to line it up with the genre article. Gʀᴀᴘᴘʟᴇ ^ˣ 21:09, 28 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Post-rescope content cleanup[edit]

Per the RM discussion above, this article used to have a much broader scope when it was at the title List of films featuring prisons. A lot of entries are no longer appropriate under the new scope (e.g. Captain America: Civil War). I've added the {{List scope}} cleanup template for this reason. It might be useful to semi-automate the cleanup by cross-referencing with Category:Prison films. Colin M (talk) 17:29, 29 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Life[edit]

You should add Life. I can't believe it isn't on here. It's a prison camp. But it is still a prison movie. 2601:404:CD00:AB30:5823:865:80EB:769 (talk) 10:49, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
