And I would love a music video!!
I really liked the 2003 version because of how faithful so much of it was to the Barrie. But yes, the Peter and Wendy 'does she like him?' tension was WAY overdone. There is tension between the 2 of them, but when I saw that version, a little kid (maybe 8?) screamed out "THEY SHOULD HAVE SEX NOW!!!!!!" in the theatre. THAT means you've gone a little over the top.

Tinker Bell annoyed me in that version, too, but I still clapped to revive her with my friends...which the rest of the audience did not get, but oh well.

I'm confused. You saw that version in theaters when you were 8? Or was it another version you saw when you were 8?

When she saw the 2003 version, there was an 8 year old in the thetre who screamed "THEY SHOULD HAVE SEX NOW!!!!!!"

Ariellen, that must have been hilarious! And I clapped too :D !

Another cool feature would be a 'Disney Fun Facts' track, such as those that the Aladdin PE and Narnia DVD had.
:pan: Love It.

I can just imagine the embarassed parents of that 8 year old boy. Honestly, what is the world coming to? (Seriously) Since when do 8-year old boys know about sex and already say the word aloud in public? :(

I am absolutely in love with the 2003 version! Nearly (if not) everything about it!

It was hysterical in a somewhat sad sort of way...

But being with a group of people who clapped was awesome! :)

And thanks, Escapay, for explaining what my story meant.:)

Disney has finally released cover art for the Peter Pan Platinum Edition! I don't really like it. Considering Disney don't make any Traditionally Animated 'Classics' anymore, I don't think they had enough money to pay for this cover-art, anyway, you be the judge.

And yes Wendy is a fish :lol:

But, actually, Disney made the first film where Peter Pan was a boy...and in that coverart, he definitely is not a boy. lol.

Yes but I think digitally painting breasts onto Peter in every scene would be a bit far to go even for Disney! ;)

lol, I love how everyone instantly thinks about how Peter breasts would have to be digitally installed...never mind the fact that he would have a tail! :lol:
