Stop it!
editI have merged Bratinella's pictures into the original text. Both; please accept this. BlueValour 00:35, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
All of them
editWhy are all the movies here. If you look at Spy Kids 2: Island of Lost Dreams article just by itself, it's pretty long. So I think each film should get their own article. Tcatron565 16:07, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
Internal link
editI am going to delete the link to Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over at the bottom of this article since it instantly redirects back to Spy Kids when clicked on. If anyone has a problem with this edit, tell me. --Powerfulmind 01:48, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
Article coverage
editThis article covers all three films, despite the fact that the other films have their own articles. Someone with a detailed knowledge of the subject should fix this. Atropos 22:42, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Main Article for first Spy Kids
editIsn't there a main article baout the first Spy Kids? Instead of the whole entire trilogy? Unless we someone could REMOVE THE WHOLE ENTIRE ARTICLE TO MAKE IT JUST ABOUT THE FIRST SPY KIDS. In fact, this article should be moved to Spy Kids (trilogy) without the redirect, or we should not have it at all! Tyty1234 02:30, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:Spy Kids 2.jpg
edit
Image:Spy Kids 2.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 07:59, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
Requested move
editI think that this article should be moved to Spy Kids (trilogy) without the redirect to this article because this article should be about the first Spy Kids Movie. Spy Kids 2: Island of Lost Dreams and Spy Kids 3D: Game Over has their articles so why can't the first one have it's own article? So we should move this article to Spy Kids (trilogy) or we should not have it at all! Tyty1234 18:50, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
- Support This article should be about the first movie. I feel the same about video games, "Final Fantasy" should be about the first game and NOT the series in general. Lrrr IV 22:53, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
While there is evidently support for having two pages, one for the first film and one for the trilogy, I am loath to move this page until there is something to replace it with. I would suggest starting the page which is intended to replace the current one at a new title, like Spy Kids (film). Alert me when that's ready and I'll happily make the changes. --Stemonitis 20:42, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
- Ok, it's ready, but the page has been removed by Tregoweth because it was a MascotGuy creation. I do hope this page doesn't get deleted again, but I put a notice on the page saying that the page is going to be moved. Good Luck and thanks! Tyty1234 08:14, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
- I think you misunderstood me. I meant that you should write an article there, which can then be moved to fill the gap that moving this to Spy Kids (trilogy) would leave. --Stemonitis 08:21, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
- Ok, I got your point and I think I did somewhat to add details for this movie. You can now check Spy Kids (film) and make the changes. Tyty1234 17:56, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
Reform
editShouldn't there be a mention that none of the villains die, they all reform and turn good. A rare thing in movies. Emperor001 23:28, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

This article should be renamed to Spy Kids (film series) to bring it inline with the naming convention pertaining to film series. Let's discuss. - LA @ 10:34, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
Survey
editPlease state whether or not you support the renaming of this article.
- Oppose - Film series is less precise in describing these collective three works. How about Spy Kids trilogy (film series). — WiseKwai 12:58, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
- Serious comments only please - part of the problem with "trilogy" is just the fact it is tied to "three". Particularly recent film series have a habit of being "added to" (see. Die Hard, Indiana Jones etc). The only "loss" of precision is the 3 aspect which is itself a problem. If we then use the same form for all series we would need to call them "trilogies" "quadrilogies", "quin what evers" etc. This is confusing and unnecessary. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 12:16, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

Spy Kids 4
edit"Robert Rodriguez is writing "Spy Kids 4," which he will direct in 3D. The movie will be made in partnership with Disney and will start shooting in March, Weinstein said."
Source: http://www.variety.com/article/VR1118009176.html?categoryid=13&cs=1&nid=2564
That means that this page will have to be shifted as it would no longer be a trilogy anymore.KiasuKiasiMan (talk) 12:05, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
My prediction
editAll three Spy Kids movie must be released on Disney Blu-Ray since the next movie is coming soon from Walt Disney Pictures. The third Spy Kids movie might be presented in Disney Digital 3D. That might go for the same as "The Adventures of SharkBoy and LavaGirl". 71.138.69.134 (talk) 23:47, 10 March 2010 (UTC)
Table Problem
editThere appears to be a problem with the Gary and Gerti Giggles rows of the table. The rows extend out farther than they are supposed to. I'm not sure how to fix this problem, but hopefully someone else can fix it. Alphius (talk) 18:55, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
Machete
editI have been wondering for a while: Is the film Machete a spin-off of Spy Kids in any kind of way? It does have the character of Machete Cortez (also played by Danny Trejo. Also, this article says the Machete is the "estranged uncle" of Carmen and Juni. If there is any reliable source that says this, can someone add it to all of the Spy Kids articles (or at least this one and the first film in this series)? Thanks. Allen (Morriswa) (talk) 18:08, 28 May 2013 (UTC)
Spy Kids 5?
editI'm pretty sure it's safe to say that the "Spy Kids 5" section can be removed considering it doesn't have an actual source. Also I couldn't find anything supporting that plans for such a sequel exist.

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Animation will do the animated series.
editIMDB says Spy Kids: Mission Critical will be produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Animation. It says it on this page:

Spy Kids and Machete canonicity and placements
editAre the Machete movies really a spinoff of the Spy Kids movies?
Yes, Spy Kids and Machete share the same character and actor, and yes they are both made by Robert Rodriguez.
But, SK!Machete and Gritty!Machete are also two different personas. Like the TMNT franchise. Same character shells, different takes on personalities.
The Spy Kids Mission Critical reboot is an AU, yes, but at least it was confirmed to actually be part of the Spy Kids franchise. I'm not so sure about Machete being an "official" spinoff of Spy Kids. Who said that? WHERE is it said? At least link to where it was said.
Like Zucat said, fan theories are indeed taken way too far. I think people who claim they definitely are in the same universe/is a spinoff are just parroting at this point, because they have no other proof other than "they looked it up" or "someone said it", and they don't take it with a grain of salt.

- They are separate distinct series, loosely related by some common elements but Machete is not part of the Spy Kids franchise. Absent some reference that explicitly states it is part of the Spy Kids franchise it doesn't belong in this article. Original info about those films was added without discussion in October 21, 2019 by an anonymous editor so this is fairly recent. Geraldo Perez (talk) 00:29, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
- I also note, viewing the edit history, that the addition of Machete was contentious from the beginning being added and removed multiple times along with the characters from those films being added and removed from this article. Geraldo Perez (talk) 00:44, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
Merge proposal
editThe following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Formal request has been received from 2603:7000:26F0:74B0:7D75:BD72:E6CE:715E to merge Carmen Cortez, Juni Cortez and Machete (character) into Spy Kids. Please discuss the proposal here.
Proposer's rationale: The characters' articles are almost all plot, have very few sources, and lack the content notable fictional character articles need like ratings, receptions, cultural impact, etc. Felix QW (talk) 16:46, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
- Support merge for Carmen Cortez and Juni Cortez to Spy Kids, as there is no negligible content or notability beyond summarizing the plot of Spy Kids and sequels.
- The Machete (character) article can stand alone, as the character achieved sufficient notability beyond the context of Spy Kids. There's a meaningful amount of sourced content directed to the character itself. The character launched a separate Machete franchise, as well as achieving sufficient cultural significance to appear in a Snickers ad independent of either film franchise. I would however consider cutting or condensing that "Character biography" section of entirely unsourced plot summary in the Machete article. Alsee (talk) 05:35, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
