Just noticed the title: "& Wendy". They probably gonna turn her into a girl boss in this version, aren't they?

They got time-travelling Phil Collins and Milla Jovovich in this?

Oh shit, did not know this, will definitely give it a watch, then. Still not getting my hopes up too high, though.

I was checking for a trailer for this just a day or two ago, I love the director. This trailer though, gee
He also directed the remake of Pete's Dragon, definitely the best of Disney's slew of remakes. Disney knew the IP wouldn't make for a huge financial hit, so they gave him free reign to make whatever he wanted. He said he wasn't given the same freedom for Peter Pan & Wendy, so I haven't had the highest hopes for it. Still a bit high though. It's David Lowery...

Is this based on the novel or on the earlier Disney version coz most(all?) other Peter Pan movies didn't include it either.
And a quick look up of J.M. Barrie's work, the book is called just Peter Pan also.

Aside from the Lion King remake which made shit loads of money, it sure seems like lots of Disney kids flicks do lousy lately in terms of sales or reviews.

Gotta say, they nailed the casting for Peter Pan himself.
HOOK is apparently Jude Law? I would have never clocked that. That. . .is some good costume and makeup work.
DISNEY's live action remakes do solid business. Which is why this and the upcoming LITTLE MERMAID exist. I can't say that this one is going to be successful, but I'm not betting against DISNEY or their properties (there are a ton of billion dollar movies in the live action remake library of the last ten or so years).

The novel was originally titled Peter And Wendy
Then in 1915 the abridged version was published under the name Peter Pan And Wendy.

lmao at the pandering. Race-swapping key characters, girls in the Lost Boys because of course.
Can I just say that Peter has the charisma of a sack of potatoes? His line delivery in this trailer is terrible.
I'm glad David Lowery is getting paid and it looks visually quite striking at moments but zero faith in this not being another Disney shitshow.

I never read the book but we’re there girl lost boys? I know there wasn’t in other versions, or at least don’t remember there being any.
It looks kind of interesting to me and I like the focus on Wendy (I always thought pan was a spoiled brat) but I have zero faith in it not being Terribad.

Well, you learn something everyday but I have a strong suspicion this title isn't there because the movie's aiming to be very accurate to the novel version(being also based on the 53 animation practically makes that a given).

You'd be wrong.
Check out the directors other works. This isnt the first time he's adapted a written work.

Then in 1915 the abridged version was published under the name Peter Pan And Wendy.

I never really liked the Disney cartoon. I'd rather watch Hook than this.

Tyrone magnus reviewing a Peter Pan trailer is kinda telling on his own what kind of content creator he is lol
Before this thread goes south because of course it will,
Peter Pan was not originally a ginger, that was an adaptation. Tinker bell wss not originally blonde, that was an adaptation. The original book was titled the same as this movie is.
The only real tangible explicit change is with the lost boys group, which i really am not bothered by. This movies director is very very good, so I'm pretty much gonna give it a shot off of that alone .
Have fun in here yall!

But this is a story about English kids in the nineteen hundreds.
Do black people really give a fuck if this would stay a classic English novel with white folks? do women think it's an affront that the lost boys are boys?

"the director is good" so what? What makes any of you think he has any creative input and he's not just a director for hire?

I expected shit tbh. It really doesn't look that bad. I'm excited. I just hope it doesn't focus too much on wendy. I also wanted to be a permanent boy who fought pirates so I'm really there for Pan.

If you're referring to tinker bell, she isn't an English kid.
There were not white English kids in the 1900s anyway.
Instead of asking if black people give af, ask if white people give af about Tinker bell being another color because its a whire person making this movie lol

Im hoping it's good. I've not watched all the Disney remakes but I loved the jungle book one. I didnt even hate lion King bur its not as good as it could have been
Yes we do. The backlash of this black washed tinkerbell in on full force across the internet.

I never thought of Peter Pan as a north Indian looking character personally (I don’t know where the actor is from - just going based off looks).

What next? They should make Batman or Superman black just because they’re fictional?
