Hey, I'm going to be reviewing this article. Expect comments by the end of the week.  Some Dude From North Carolina  (talk) 12:20, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
 * , Chompy Ace (which always accompanies your GA reviews) has fixed some issues. Can you re-revise them and strike the resolved issues? Meanwhile, I'll resolve issues I can see distinctly.  Gerald WL  16:02, 20 March 2021 (UTC)

Infobox and lead

 * Non-free use rationale for the poster is in good condition.
 * Do Denise Ream and Mychael Danna need references?
 * Removed
 * Cinematographers, however, do need sources.
 * Does credits count as reliable?
 * I found two sources for you (this and this). However, they both say the DoP roles (camera and lighting) are swapped.

 * The current reference being used says the runtime is 97 minutes; other sources disagree.
 * Changed
 * #Box_office mentions a source putting the budget at $200 million, so change $175 million to "$175–200 million" and add said source.
 * Add commas after Frances McDormand and "November 10, 2015".
 * The phrase "various American nature" sounds weird. Try rewording.
 * Redone.
 * "to the film" "into the film"

Plot and voice cast

 * Plot is under 700 words.
 * Velociraptor Velociraptors (plural)
 * Done.
 * Cast section looks good.

Development

 * Remove the comma after "film in 2009".
 * Add commas after "producer" and "November 27, 2013".
 * Done the former. The latter would make it grammatically incorrect.
 * The reference after "June 2011" is reciting this article, so I would cite that instead even though it's shorter.
 * Done! Talk about a subtle discovery.
 * How do we know details were shared on August 20, 2011, when the article is from August 21?
 * No mention of "the 1964 New York World's Fair" or "Audio-Animatronics" in this reference.
 * Seems done.

Revisions

 * Remove the comma after "next month".
 * Done.
 * The first reference in this section doesn't mention Walker leaving due to "story problems".
 * Here, and in other sections, change "..." to "[...]" (more visually pleasing).
 * The sentence starting with "Peterson moved on" should be fully in past tense.
 * Is it good now?
 * A reference is needed for the sentence starting with "In September 2013".
 * Seemingly done.
 * was "the was because "the
 * Can't see that word.
 * That second paragraph is a big, partly unnecessary quote block, so try trimming it down a bit.
 * The phrase "Arlo was a huge dinosaur" needs to be reworded.
 * dismantled "dismantled"
 * The third paragraph contains another unnecessary quote block. Trim it.
 * The last part of the sentence starting with "Arlo's three siblings" needs a source.
 * What's up with these various quote blocks?! Trim the one in the final paragraph as well.

Design and setting

 * In the caption, replace "stunning" since it's not neutral.
 * Main issue here is the appearance of more quote blocks.

Music

 * This section looks good.

Video games

 * Can this become a subsection at the end of #Release?
 * Also, can this be turned into prose instead of a list?
 * Done all.

Release

 * Remove the comma after "accompany the film".

 * A reference is needed for Party Central being shown with Muppets Most Wanted.
 * Seems resolved all.  Gerald WL  12:20, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
 * ✅ Chompy Ace 02:39, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

Box office

 * Add commas after "November 25, 2015" and the second use of Argentina.
 * Done.
 * The reference after "opening weekend" is missing an author.
 * done.
 * The second-to-last sentence in the second paragraph needs a source.
 * Seems done?
 * "$28.7" "$29.8" (source being used)
 * Done.
 * The numbers on the sentence starting with "The top openings" does not match the numbers from the closest reference.
 * Done.  Gerald WL  12:19, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

Critical response

 * Wikilink Kenneth Turan, Manohla Dargis, Joe Morgenstern, Justin Chang, Christopher Orr (film critic), Mark Feeney, and Mark Kermode.
 * The sentence ending with "wrote Justin Chang of Variety" does not sound Wikipedia-ish.
 * Two of these have been cleared up.  Gerald WL  12:15, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

Accolades

 * Several award ceremonies are missing sources.
 * ✅ Chompy Ace 02:27, 25 March 2021 (UTC)


 * I would suggest adding a references column per consistency with other GA-articles.
