Saw Pan today. I was expecting it to be more like the book, so it was a bit too sentimental and sappy for a story that I remember as dark and disturbing. Peter IS an egotistical, selfish, manipulative little boy. He forgets or ignores anything that isn't important to him - and this came through in the beginning of the film, but slowly lessened as the messages about love and feelings came through. Bloody Wendy. But the actress did a good job, for a part whose only requirement is to be an innocent little girl and a flirt at the same time. Job desc: flutter eyelashes. Sidelong looks.
Yes, the boy who played Pan is damn hot for a 14-year-old and is going to have legions of pre-pubescent fangirls across the globe. Jason Isaacs made a very good and surprisingly attractive Hook. Now if only there was some medium between the two...

I gave in today, and let Kamui blabber for 691 words. Maybe he'll leave me alone for a while now.

>.< Man, I really want to rewatch Prince of Egypt. And Road To El Dorado. I'm having animated movie cravings here.

Mm, Road to El Dorado.

Hey, have you seen Sinbad? The animated one? My god, the gay vibes. o_O

*coughVERYUNSUBTLEMIGEUL/TULIOcough*

No, I haven't! Have to add that to the list.

I actually normally don't slash animated movies (either gay or het slash, it just doesn't sit right with me) but my god....see Sinbad, and marvel at the gayness. Even my sister saw it.

Oh, and it's worth seeing it if just for the line, "Whoa! Put a shirt on! You could poke someone's eye out with those!"

You're determined to get some mileage out of this leash, aren't you?

Fuck yes. What's the point of having it if I can't use it?

Dooooo, I thought it was heaps like the book.
The only difference I noticed was that the children had no idea what neverland was. There were some minor differences, like the fact that the rock was inside a castle, but other than that....
Also that their food wasn't imagined, but I think Hook invented that.

It changed the plot heaps. But it was much more true to the book than the Disney one, I'll agree.

No, in the book they have make-believe feats OR real food, depending on Peter's mood... it's one of the really weird bits.

ohhhhh, their not just pre-pubescent fangirls, half the time their fully mature fangirls SOME MOST LIKELY WELL INTO THEIR TWENTIES.

i pity that boy.

actually, i don't. what male teenage doesn't want legions of older women lusting after him?

i am debating whether or not to see that scantily clad Mr Pan currently. i guess it will depend on whether i can live through watching wendy for over an hour, or whether i will give in to the temptation of Colin Farrell's eyebrows of justice, which appear very determined to rid the world of crime.

Mmm. Difficult choice. But being the youngest of your siblings, you should probably watch the Pan so that you can radiate smugness that you are the closest in age to him and thus the less pedophilic.
