Ok. Will copy edit as I go and jot queries below. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 03:48, 22 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

After her death, Snow White's father rescues Ravenna from an invading Dark Army of glass soldiers, becomes enchanted with her beauty, and marries her. - here Ravenna is mentioned without being described or introduced. You need to explain who she is at first mention.
The source for The first two sentences of the Casting section indicates that they considered big names, then lesser known actresses before returning to big names - need to calibrate article with source.
Place release dates for other countries in Release section.
Any information on how the script developed would be a very good addition.
Fix [citation needed] tag(s)
Comment: I would say please do not continue the review and quick fail it instead, because the nominator has contributed little to nothing for the article, the lead is too short, the plot is too long, there are a few tags, and the release section is too short.

Agree with your comments on the article - I placed the tags there today - did muse on quickfailing but happy to AGF for the time being and await a reply as it could feasibly done within 7 days. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 07:10, 22 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

1. Well written?:

Prose quality:   - some issues outstanding - see above.
Manual of Style compliance:  

2. Factually accurate and verifiable?:

References to sources:   - not checked as more obvious issues not addressed
Citations to reliable sources, where required:   some tags.
No original research:  

3. Broad in coverage?:

Major aspects:   - mostly, but missing release dates outside US. Also, no info on script development.
Focused:   - plot needs work, lead too short.

4. Reflects a neutral point of view?:

Fair representation without bias:  

5. Reasonably stable?

No edit wars, etc. (Vandalism does not count against GA):  

6. Illustrated by images, when possible and appropriate?:

Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:  
Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:  


Overall:

Pass or Fail:   - nominator busy - realistically, significant work required. Recommend addressing obvious issues before resubmitting. Article has potential though. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 23:41, 25 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
