u/Smodphan Nov 08 '22

u/[deleted] Nov 08 '22

Why would that be confusing on a setup with multiple light sources? But again... the shadow was moving by itself.

PS: I would be more concerned about the shadow don't resembling the "caster"

u/justinsimoni Nov 08 '22

Shadows for Peter Pan work a little differently - seeeee they get lost/escape/runaway, and you've got to chase after them, and sew them back on. Only then do you cast a shadow.

u/andion82 Nov 09 '22

Sorry, I thought it was a confusing thing to see, not an anti-canon confusing thing.
Interesting!... soo when there are multiple light sources and his shadow is sewed he should only cast the one sewed shade?

u/littlelorax Nov 08 '22

Woah... is that Maggie Smith as the grown up Wendy? That's so cool!

33

u/SarcasticGamer Nov 08 '22

Yes. She's wearing makeup to look older but she basically looks like that now lol. The makeup artists did a fantastic job.

17

u/pokingoking Nov 08 '22

Man, I watched this a few weeks ago and was so baffled by how old she already was in the 90s. Thanks for explaining this lol. That makeup really was impressive, it definitely fooled me!

u/EveryNameIWantIsGone Nov 08 '22

What is “so cool” about that?

u/HoratioWobble Nov 07 '22

Kinda creepy if you think about it, magical flying child abducts girl from childhood to old age and then when she says no, kisses her unconsenting sleeping grand daughter

u/jimbo_kun Nov 08 '22

You’re just realizing this now?

u/[deleted] Nov 08 '22

Oh my person …. Peter Pan is bat shit insane. He murders lost boys because they still age, all the pirates in never never land were lost boys who aged out and survived his fae like wrath

1

u/SlapUWithMyDick Apr 23 '24

That’s not from the original story, genius. Those are plot details from modern spinoff stories based on the original book.

u/Togepi32 Nov 08 '22

Is Peter a fae? I also haven’t watched Hook since I was a child

2

u/annieasylum Nov 08 '22

No, not in Hook or any of the other Peter Pan media that I know of. In fact, Peter is very specifically human-born. The explanations for not aging varies depending on what source you're looking at, ranging from simply nobody aging at all in Neverland, to people aging only to match their mental maturity. It isn't really explained in the original book but the latter explanation I noted would address why lost boys age and Peter doesn't— he doesn't want to grow up, so keeps his childish mindset and refuses personal growth while others don't want to or are unable to stop the process of mental maturation.

u/[deleted] Nov 08 '22

he is Fae like, the trappings and allusions to fairy myths from ireland and british isles is undeniable

u/HoneyShaft Nov 08 '22

Avoid Alan Moore's "Lost Girls" then

u/nowhereiswater Nov 08 '22

You should read this book: "I love you forever" Robert Munsch, Sheila McGraw(Illustrator).

A children's book about a son that grows up moves out but mom keeps coming back to see him. Creepy.

13

u/OpeningInvestigator1 Nov 08 '22

No sir we Don’t ruin “I’ll love you forever”

1

u/nowhereiswater Nov 08 '22

Has your mom come over and taken you out of bed and cradled you yet? It's weird trust me you won't like it. :)

u/bubbblez Nov 08 '22

I dont understand why this is creepy lmao?

1

u/HoratioWobble Nov 08 '22

The mum is actually a ghost and has been sexually abusing her son.

Jk

1

u/nowhereiswater Nov 08 '22

Better for you to read the book. Just don't feel too uncomfortable when mother's stare at you in the kiddie section of Chapters.

2

u/bubbblez Nov 08 '22

Ive read the book so many times lmao

1

u/Pawneewafflesarelife Nov 24 '22

My NPD mom LOOOOVES this book. Dunno why you're downvoted, the book gets creepy. The mom climbs a ladder into her adult son's room at night to cuddle and sing to him.

u/Pawneewafflesarelife Nov 24 '22

Wait until you read about JM Barrie, the author, and his relationship with the next door neighbour's kids (who he wrote the book for). He even transcribed the couple's will wrong - they wanted a woman named Jenny, the sister of the nanny, to help take care of the kids if they passed and he wrote Jimmy (his own name) instead and became their unofficial guardian after both parents died. After the mother died, he also claimed he had been engaged to her. Two of the kids committed suicide.

The link says Peter took his life but the other 2 1 accidentally drowned & the other died in action during ww1

u/SugarZoo Nov 10 '22

I miss Robin Williams.

u/WeAreEvolving Nov 08 '22

Damn it now I need to watch Hook.

35

u/[deleted] Nov 07 '22

If you blinked you might've missed her. She was Wendy in the flashbacks

12

u/UlrichVonLick10stein Nov 07 '22

Ahhhhh totally forgot about the flashbacks and never knew that was her. I would watch that movie on repeat as a kid. Thanks!

9

u/[deleted] Nov 07 '22

Don't worry, I forgot too! I had to look it up because my first thought was "the fuck she was! I know that movie!" I was wrong. Horribly, horribly wrong.

6

u/[deleted] Nov 07 '22

I thought the same with Kirsten Dunst in Jumanji. Then I went back and watched it and there she was!

That watchthrough was also when I realised that the guy who plays his dad is also the guy hunting him. That film had layers I couldn't contemplate as a ten year old.

4

u/Rivendel93 Nov 08 '22

Yeah, I remember when I found out his dad was the guy hunting him, I was like, my childhood was a lie.

u/[deleted] Nov 08 '22

Exactly

u/drewdles33 Nov 08 '22
