Let me get this right, your not saying not only if they are listed in the end of the cast list, if they appear anywhere in the cast list we don't include them?

My last understanding after getting blasted is we don't include them if they are at the end of the cast list from this thread I found and what was said in this one.  As much as some of you think I was out to do something wrong I am really trying to follow the rules.


I guess I should have been more clear.  I am speaking strictly about when they are listed at the end of the credits.  I don't include stunt people unless they are intigrated into the cast list.  If they are at the end, I leave them out.  However, if someone chose to include them I would not vote no because of what I said earlier.

Anything intigrated into the middle of the cast list, actor or not...real or not...gets included in the profile.

I don't think most (any but the children) thought you were out to do anything wrong.  It may not have been a gray area to you but to some of us it was.

Like Unicus the word 'actor' factored into my decision.  I saw the large group of stunt people as appended to the cast credits (you saw them as separate).  I saw several embedded 'actors' with '(stunt)' after their roles and based on that i was prepared to vote Yes with coordinators included since i knew from the forums that was acceptable; till i saw that list of stunt people at the end.

Once i saw the stunt people,who i saw as part of the cast list, and knew they weren't, by the rules and the forum discussions, cast members i had to ask myself "where do the credits end?" and the word 'Actor' in the rules became more important.  I thought, if stunt people aren't included, their coordinators shouldn't be either (not being 'Actors' but Crew as i understand things) so the cast credits end just before the coordinators, as i see it.  That's how i voted.

In an ideal world the rule would be black & white and it usually is.  To me this area stepped into the gray.
Bad movie?  You're soaking in it!
