DB Company Update: Buddy Film not Friendly Film

[Brian Thibodeau]

If no one objects, I'll change the currently DB name for this production company from:

Friendly Film Creation Co. Ltd. (Buddy Film Creative Workshop Ltd.)
http://hkmdb.com/db/companies/view.mhtm ... ay_set=eng

to just "Buddy Film Creative Workshop Ltd."

There doesn't seem to be any evidence to support Friendly Film, which leaves me to wonder if it someone made a stab at a loose translation back in the old days of the site. Google translates the Chinese text as Buddy FIlm Creative Workshop Ltd, nice and simple, and that's the English name that appears on every movie I've ever seen created by the company.



I'll keep Friendly Film as an alias, just to be safe.

There are no aliases in the Companies' entry. "Friendly" will desappear forever.

Works for me!

Of course, we should have alias fields for nearly everything, as well as the ability to add multiple photos to company listings, since their logos evolve over time, but hey . . .

Added the logo above to the Buddy Film DB entry ( ) and switched the order of the name from "Friendly Film Creation Co. Ltd. (Buddy Film Creative Workshop Ltd.)" to Buddy Film Creative Workshop Ltd. (Friendly Film Creation Co. Ltd.). Haven't deleted Friendly Film, but would much rather see it as an alias, a feature we don't yet have for company entries. Will ask Bob about this in the appropriate thread.
