Talk:Max Hardcore
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Sources?
Most of the material on this page appears to be 'adapted' from the rotten.com article on the same subject. Although the Rotten profile is good, it can also be found on Max Hardcore's own website, which might create a problem. As Max Hardcore is, to put it mildly, something of a controversial figure, perhaps further research is needed?
If I have time, I will adapt this page myself. Thanks Will Lakeman 18:54, 15 May 2005 (UTC)
I changed a line from (paraphrase) there worthlessness as people to 'what his characters claim are there worthlessness as people'. One is a character judgement, the other is a plot description. To claim porn actressess are worthless is a terriblly non-NPOV act of misanthropy. - Duckmonster (And I apologise, I dont watch porn, but this is self evident. No one is worthless)
Duck, in fairness, it does say the characters revel in the worthlessness (thus not the real people). But, the real reason that I am commenting here is that it does not seem to me that Max Hardcore should be credited with the frequency of anal sex in porn. This was already a dominant feature of a lot of porn by the time he became active. His role in the obvious misogyny of current porn is worth exploring however.--SVTCobra 02:13, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
The article lists his DOB as 1944, but yet the article is in the "1956 category". I would edit it myself to fix the incongruity, but I am unsure of which is the correct date. --McGravin 18:20, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
I read through the article and to me it's pretty NPOV as it is. All sides of the story are included, so IMO we could remove the neutrality dispute tag. --Rasbelin 13:58, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
I'd guess 1956 ... 1944 would make him 62 now and he doesn't look nearly so old. Benwing 23:26, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
AGE NOTE: the year is actually 1956 (hence i changed it in the info). Max and I have the same hometown. He is the most famous person from Racine, WI!!! if you have ever visited there, its not difficult to understand how he turned out the way he did! i also added the first makings of an 'early life' section, to try and trace max's roots in Racine, but i found little info.

[edit] Tags
I've added three tags to the article:
- Verification because it doesn't cite any sources
- POV because some sections are not NPOV, particularly the section on his early life
- Accuracy because the info in the first paragraph contradicts the infobox, and some of what's in the infobox seems highly dubious (blue eyed negro? weighs 90 lbs?).
