Snow White (2001 film) → Snow White: The Fairest of Them All – From article and references target is WP:COMMONNAME for this topic. Also that title is a natural disambiguation for this topic. Geraldo Perez (talk) 18:23, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Support. Of course – it appears this film has never been called just Snow White is generally not referred to as just Snow White. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 20:08, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Oppose, this movie is also known as "Snow White". Alec Worley Empires of the Imagination: A Critical Survey of Fantasy Cinema 2005  0786423242 "Similarly the TV movie Snow White (2001), directed by Burton's writing partner Caroline Thompson, frolics in an ... while trying to make sense of the exaggerated behavior of Kristen Kruek's Snow White and Miranda Richardson's evil queen."

 * That's one source. Even if we acknowledge the film has been referred to by both titles, none of that gets to the WP:NATURALDIS argument made by the move proposal. When you look at everything on balance, the proposed move is the correct course of action on both WP:COMMONNAME and WP:NATURALDIS grounds. As long as Snow White (2001 film) continues to exist as a redirect, there is no issue here, and the article should be moved as proposed. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 17:45, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Support. As proposer. It looks like it was originally called just Snow White but it appears that name was changed and it is currently being sold as a DVD Amazon as "Snow White: The Fairest of Them All", IMDb lists it that way, it is referred to in the article in every location the title is shown that way. The cover art shows "Snow White: The Fairest of Them All". I think it is fairly obvious that "Snow White: The Fairest of Them All" is the most common name used to refer to this topic which also has the benefit of being a natural disambiguation for the topic. A basic search for "Snow White (2001)" generally gets "Snow White: The Fairest of Them All (2001)" although some hits for "Snow White (2001)" are also returned.
