So, who played Rufio in this?

 

[thecouncil]

Is that a human in a dog costume?

 

[Megasoum]

Is that a human in a dog costume?

I was wondering the same thing... Looks like a real dog

That dog is a better actor than Christopher Walken.

 

[Downhome]

Is that a human in a dog costume?

Everyone else is dogs in human costumes.

Thank you NeoGAF for keeping me company watching this show tonight and making me laugh my ass off.

 

[Marcel]

Holy shit, think this through Mr. Darling.

 

[indigo-cyclops]

I demand to see much, much more of Taylor Louderman (Wendy) in the future. She has absolutely been the highlight of the night to me, other than Walken of course. She is so great tonight.

Same here, same here. Seems like she mostly does Broadway though.

 

[Epsilon-delta]

Holy shit, think this through Mr. Darling.

He must be loaded. Dat British Pound.

 

[titiklabingapat]

Wendy is gonna have so many awkward moments when they all reach puberty...

 

[Downhome]

Not a very good idea to adopt a bunch of those guys now willing to grow up with Wendy in the same house.

 

[Effect]

This thing has been a damn rollercoaster ride. There are moments where I'm "this is pretty good" that can be quickly followed up by moments of me going "wtf am I watching!?".

I do have this very strong desire to watch Hook now.

Minnie Driver

It's Minnie Driver

 

[JNA]

Can please somebody gif that note Walden was trying to hold. The one in those cut ins. Please lol

 

[thecouncil]

"wendy? what's the matter with you?"
*turns on light*
"good god, you're minnie driver now"

 

[Vyer]

Minnie Driver

It's Minnie Driver

Ah of course

 

[bennywhatever]

I'm pretty sure Peter Pan grows up to be Barney Stinson.

 

[crmetteer]

Huh. I actually really enjoyed the ending.

 

[Megasoum]

I hope we're getting a curtain call.

 

[Marcel]

The Pan thirst ran in the family. The end.

 

[thecouncil]

that ending was a little depressing. pan basically told wendy she sucked cause she got old, stole her kid and never even got to kiss anyone!

 

[indigo-cyclops]

Not even on Bluray? Wow!

 

[Zoe]

Huh, I always thought the Hook scene of Peter with adult Wendy was just for the movie.

 

[Mesousa]

Kind of weird how she pretty much promises every daughter in her family line to Peter pan like that...

Okay, now I have to watch this thing. Wish I could have seen it live, but oh well.

My perspective on Walken's performance, based merely on this gif, is that his Hook is aware that he exists within a musical universe in which he must go through the motions but honestly would prefer he didn't have to.

Or perhaps Walken is just phoning it in.

 

[Valjean Lafitte]

Am I the only one who thought that the people performing Wendy and Peter looked way too old for those roles (especially Wendy)? I've admittedly only ever seen a bit of one other Peter Pan production, but I thought the actresses looked more age appropriate there.

Also, fuck John and Michael being actual kids while the whole Lost Boy crew was comprised of guys in their 20s.

 

[klownboots]

Did I miss it or has no one mention the Mandalorian Boba Fett Tattoo on Smees left arm?...

Peter is pretty much always played by an adult woman.

I absolutely can't imagine there being anymore kids that age in this. They were pretty much the worst part of this for me. Bad overacting and didn't have the cache to bring weirdness to it. It seemed like a demanding production to rely on children for everything. I always thought Wendy was meant to be older.

I just think he's too old for the exaggerated movements of the role. After some of the musical numbers, the actors were noticeably tired and catching their breath. I was away from the TV for a bit. Just listening to his lines, divorced from what's on screen, he wasn't bad.

 

[Dynamite Ringo Matsuri]

That was much more entertaining than I thought it'd be. Tayler and Allison killed it, the production design was great and Walken's phone in performance resulted in many lulz. Glad I tuned in

Yes...I know. I also know that there are adult women that look and sound more like teenagers than this one (which is not to say anything of her performance, which was good).

Yet the most famous performer of this role looks older than her.

That's just ageist. There is no shortage of skilled kid actors. But what I mean is not that they should have cast actual children in the roles of Peter, Wendy and the Lost Boys, but young-looking actors (see Glee!).

Ageist? If they intended for children, or younger-looking actors they would have. It was fine. I never said there was no skilled young actors, I was commenting on the children actors in the performance.

Seriously. Where's my happy ending?!

 

[MiniBossBattle]

Is this real life?
It's so bad but so good. Why am I smiling?

 

[lazybones18]

Why aren't there more gifs of this trainwreck?

 

[aett]

One of the commercials made my wife and me crack up: "That's a bow and arrow, like they used to shoot Wendy!"

Also, why are these kids getting presents so close to Christmas?

 

[speculawyer]

It just looks terrible.
