Talk:Batman in film/GA1
GA Review
It looks like this article has been needing a review for quite awhile, so I'll be reviewing it over the next few days. This is my first GA review, so if for some reason I think that it should fail I will instead ask for a second opinion to help make sure that I did the process correctly. You may contact me on

Early thoughts
I'm about halfway through the article so far, and there are a few things I thought I'd point out for improvement:
- The Batman Returns and Batman Forever sections could use some citations and more about the making of the film.
The following few sentences in the Batman section could use some reworking: "Numeroustypecastas a comedic actor."
Other than those, things look good so far. -

- On the first point, the main articles for those movies have some production/development info; copying that over and then shortening it a little might work. -talk) 19:05, 19 November 2008 (UTC)]
- I've re-added two paragraphs that were deleted which I think help solve that problem. -talk) 19:26, 19 November 2008 (UTC)]
- It looks like the the Batman Forever section has been updated, and that looks good now. Batman Returns could still use a little work. -talk) 23:16, 19 November 2008 (UTC)]

Plots
- Batman:DarKnight, Batman Begins, and The Dark Night all suffer from the same thing as Returns and Forever did; although I know that DarKnight wasn't released so information might be scarce, some more information on the development of each of them would be good. Having one that is primarily a plot summary won't make or break the GA, but two or three might. Once that's cleaned up a bit, I'll make my final review or put it on hold for more improvements. -talk) 00:23, 20 November 2008 (UTC)]
- I haven't really studied the references; I've been looking at them as I go along and they all look pretty reliable, and there's a large number of different sources. If there's any particular link in the references that I should take a look at, please let me know. Thanks! -talk) 01:08, 20 November 2008 (UTC)]

On hold
I have put the review on hold for 7 days or until it is improved enough to pass, whichever comes first. The improvements that are needed are described in the "Plot" section above. -

- Great work, Wildroot. The Dark Knight still needs a bit of work, but otherwise everything looks good! -talk) 02:38, 26 November 2008 (UTC)]
