Well. Let me start by saying this is quite a good article. I've gone through it once, with only minor problems noticed, so I expect that the more detailed review won't find very much.

General

  • Why is the actual film the second image of the article? Wouldn't it be better to have it as the first, and a bit larger, so it's unmissable?
  • On the film, a foreign-ölanguage subtitle came up for me at around 26 seconds in. Any idea why?
  • It talks about checking it on the mutoscope. Would it be original research to mention this can be seen in the film? (Around 5:30 or so)

On the whole, though, this is a very good article, and well on its way to Featured Article status. That said, it's a little short. Things you could do to expand it before FA would include:

  1. Discuss the comic strip a bit, to provide background for the film. For example, people who don't know the comic won't know the premise (Nemo going to a fantastical world when he sleeps) or know the characters, so some background wouldn't hurt.
  2. A brief description of the earlier and later films of McCay wouldn't be out of place
  3. I suppose you could mention other adaptations of Little Nemo, such as the relatively recent animé, so long as you don't go into too much detail.

I hope this helps. In any case,  Pass. Adam Cuerden (talk) 22:49, 27 August 2013 (UTC)Reply
