100%. Even the CGI holds up fairly good, especially when they are flying. Looks great.

@@zaadus112 That flying sequence is TRULY so magical. The theme too? Gorgeous. So whimsical. I do like the animated one too, with "You Can Fly" the way the chorus is very old timey, like you're hearing it out of the radio is super nostalgic. And the camera movements are AMAZING for the time. But what puts 03 PP above the animated one, is Peter himself. There is a REASON he was EVERYONE'S childhood crush at one point lol. He actually cared a LOT about Wendy, was super protective of her, whereas in the animated on Peter could be downright mean sometimes. 03 Peter could be too, but he still had this boyish charm that cements him as a childhood love. That laugh Sumpter did is just so endearing.

@@TheRibottoStudios One thing I find cute about both movies are how they portray Mr. Bear (The teddy bear) and how the still chain him up like he is a prisoner as well, or even one of the pirates wanting him, that was sweet.

i kinda wished he looked at it after watching this lol. i feel like he would've appreciated how amazing it is a lot more

And the acting is better too

This was just a waste of Alan Tudyk's talent. Having him play a stuffy Victorian Brit just felt wrong. It would only have worked if that character was contrasted with him playing Hook.

I totally agree. Make them strong and independent, female second, instead of “ girl who is strong and independent”. I’m all for girl power, but make it genuine

⁠ that’s definitely an observation that this film has seem to reinforce. It does kinda seem like lately a female character can’t be a strong woman AND maternal anymore (I guess people have stopped watching avatar the last air bender). It doesn’t help that Disney seems to favor poorly written girl bosses and Mary sues lately.

😧 Exactly! I have no idea what is up with Disney where they're trying to make their animated leads have flaws and quirkiness but hell no we can't have the live adaptation female characters have any flaws 😑

@@shootout-shinobi6672 In general, that seems to be a problem when writing female characters.... if not characters in general who they want to portray as "I am strong, and I don't care about gender roles or expectations". AND the worst part is that you could at least have an interesting scene of people discussing what's "feminity" or what's "masculinity" (or, be extra and include characters who are non-binary or transgender). EIther the character's take on it, how they feel society and other people trust upon themselves, or their opinion preferences. You could have say, a female character like a very stereotypically female thing, and make it clear she likes it because She genuinely likes it. It's her own decision and taste to like something that happens to be seen as "stereotypically female". Or what people see as "strength" in general. The compare and contrast between someone who is strong physically but either mentally or emotionally weak, and someone who is very weak physically, but VERY strong emotionally and /or mentally. And what the characters want or perceive as a weakness.

You are speaking facts, except for the final note. Yes, while masculinity/femininity and the male/female sex do have some differences (keyword SOME), saying that they are not interconnected to their respective sex in any way whatsoever is just incorrect. Men and women can exhibit both masculine and feminine traits, but men are obviously gonna do a stronger job at displaying masculinity while women do a stronger job at displaying femininity. Because men and women are different, regardless of how hard the media tries to skew those differences. Masculinity isn't always about being overly tough, and femininity isn't always about being delicate. It's nothing disrespectful or sexist, it's a fact.

​@@hunterolaughlinThat Peter Pan film from the early 2000's will always be my favorite.

Agreed. It actually makes me sick to see people find any possible reason not to like it, because not liking live action Disney remakes is so coooool 🙄

Very much agreed

Doug's right, that should've been the focus.

You want a Peter Pan and Hook origin film! Watch Wendy 2020 it’s just that. A really underrated film

The backstory between Peter and Hook is better than some previous adaptations of the story, however this backstory does make Peter (the so-called hero) seem like a complete and utter d**k.

@@L337M4573RKif you’ve read the original story, that’s what Peter kinda is. He’s a borderline sociopath

Congratulations, Disney, you've made the argument that girls can be just as stupid as boys. Yay?

They really have no idea why Wendy is in this story.

It's about elevating females and destroying males.

Amen

To be fair, Peter was abusive in the original book (going as far as to kill any Lost Boy who so much wanted to grow up or cut a guy’s hand off just for the laughs), so he would probably be deserving of at least a couple of slaps - if not an outright punch to the face. That doesn’t seem to be the case so much with this adaptation.

They made Wendy really unlikable and thats a crime To me she was the charm of the original film

Universal Pictures did a better job 20 years ago than Disney. Which is funny in my opinion

What I like about that one is that it had big passion behind it

So this year's Pinocchio?

Preach, I'd honestly forgotten that it was even released in 2023, I could have sworn that it debuted in 2022.

Along with Lady and the Tramp (2019) and Pinocchio (2022).

Oh yeah I’ve read that book! I really wish Disney had just adapted that instead of just retelling Peter Pan for the umpteenth time.

It was supposed to be this empowering moment but it came off as unintentionally funny 😂

There's also the theory that the reason why Peter was the only one who didn't grow up and was the only one who didn't need Tink's pixie dust was, guess what, because he was dead.

​@@RoseBaggins In J M Barrie's canon, this isn't true; the book makes it clear that he is not dead. But he is described as being a psychopomp, as he's described as guiding the spirits of children who've died along part of the journey to the afterlife. One backstory JM Barrie gives Peter in the book 'The Little White Bird' is that babies are described as having once been birds, and after being born, Peter remembers this and regains his power of flight. Still, when a bird named Solomon Caw points out that he is no longer an actual bird, Peter loses his ability to fly, so he lives in Kensington Gardens with the birds and the fairies for a while, learning how to play the pipes for the Fairy Orchestra. Because of this, Peter becomes only half-human due to the magic he's experienced, known as a Betwixt-and-Between. The Fairy Queen decides to grant him two wishes one night. He wishes to regain his ability to fly so that he may return to his mother, stating that she keeps the window open for when he returns, and his second wish is to be held in reserve. But when Peter returns home, he finds that he isn't ready to grow up, so he temporarily leaves without waking his mother up, promising to return to her. Twice, he returns home, longing to show his mother affection but fearing awakening her, he plays her a melody on his pipes and leaves once more. Finally, Peter decides to return home permanently, telling the fairies that it was his second wish, but when he returns home, the window is barred, and another baby has been born, so Peter returns to the Gardens. One of his playmates in the Kensington Gardens is a little girl named Maimie Mannering, who gets lost in the gardens after closing time, and they spend time playing together, even having a fairy wedding. But despite their friendship, Maimie doesn't want to return to Peter, as she knows she wouldn't want to leave him, so she leaves gifts for him, including an imaginary goat that the fairies make real. It's described that every night, the fairies would build a house in case of any lost children Peter finds in the gardens after dark. From what is written about Maimie, she's likely the prototype character for Wendy, as there is a lot of crossover between the two, especially with thimbles and kisses. Peter does reference some of this story (running away from home and living with the fairies) in the book of Peter Pan, but JM Barrie does state in the narration that no one knows if the backstory is true, but it's what Peter believes. Peter doesn't grow up because that's a choice that he's made, and fulfilled because he's no longer fully human.

That scene is unintentionally hilarious, disturbing and terrifying

yet the people in hollywood think this empowering, not tragic@@chasehedges6775

My gut says the latter, because can't you just see the giant wall of notes and a bunch of people around a table going, "What if Peter Pan was blank" and a copy of both the book and original movie is in the garbage can.

They did the same thing in the 2003 having Jason Isaacs play both Mr Darling and Captain Hook, I think it comes from the original play where they would have the teo characters played by the same actor? It's supposed to be (I think) about how the children viewed their father/J.M Barrie viewed his father/fathers of the time, so I have no idea why they didn't do that with this adaptation 🤨

On a related note, having some of the Lost Boys be born female but identify as masculine could've been super interesting. Trans people have always existed throughout history but wouldn't have fit in anywhere in society.

I really liked the way that the 2003 Peter Pan balanced Wendy's softer, nurturing side and her adventurous nature

Yes, atleast in 'Hook' they gave the explanation that Captain Hook had all the Native Americans killed off because he couldn't find Peter Pan to explain why we don't see any of them

The idea of the Darling House having once belonged to Peter really isn't all too new; I've seen a few people speculate in the past that the Darling House may have been the place that Peter was once born or that Maimie Mannering, a playmate of Peter's from the Kensington Gardens, was potentially a young Mary Darling (there is a bit of evidence in the book), and that the fairy wedding he and Maimie shared could have formed a bond between him and her female descendants.
