What are your thoughts on the 9...Very good article. What are your thoughts on the 90s Peter Pan cartoon? I've never read the novel (I hope to read it one day), but from what I've seen, I say the 90s cartoon gave us the most accurate portrayal of captain hook. He was cruel, ruthless, malicious, but charming and gentlemanly. AND he was voiced by Tim curry. I think the cartoon is very good. But what do you think?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03006143142504553836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5196345880831321833.post-11545789869708647802016-04-07T16:58:20.266-07:002016-04-07T16:58:20.266-07:00I have no problem with you taking it all seriously...I have no problem with you taking it all seriously. :-) And I'm very glad you found my blog!<br /><br />I understand your point. To try to explain my own approach without too many spoilers (ack), this is one reason I'm going with the idea that Peter is a liar. It's in the book! There's no reason to believe anything he says, any story he tells, and there may other explanations for everything he describes. There are enough reasons for James to hate Peter Pan without that detail.M.F.

The whole...I'm going through your archives. :)<br /><br />The whole bullying-children thing is one of the reasons I have no wish to read the original, and can't bring myself to watch the 2003 film (the only one I would consider watching) despite having bought it. Hook is trapped and MAIMED, subjected to eternal pain by a loathesome, bullying brat <em>for no reason at all.</em>The whole situation makes me angry and sad, and the fanfic I read is all about Hook escaping and finding happiness. If he kills the brat, bonus!elledehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18381089476776888330noreply@blogger.com
