Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio, Puss in Boots The last wish and even the Duper Mario Bros. Movie have given us much more joy than these live action Disney remakes
@@chasehedges6775 Let’s not forget it could also be due to Disney trying renew the copyright for the property even though they should’ve just made spin off works instead
Its not just Peter Pan. ALL these heavy CGI movies seem to be that way. How is it that Wizard of OZ 1939 has more vibrant color than anything Marvel and Disney are putting out in 2023....ditto for DC and all the rest. Its all Olive color filtered it seems
It's 2023, everything is all dystopian and gloomy......we live in a world now where happy and upbeath is saccharine and meaningless, while dark and moody is "mature and relatable", or whatever bullcrap it is now
@@JamesJimmaHarding everything is political nonsense..Let's stop beating around the Bush and tell it how it is.. Forced diversity, feminisation of male characters, every female character has to be strong, every male lead has to be emotional..Litterally everything I watch now adays follows this formula
The reason The Lost Boys were boys was flat out stated in the book (not the movie though so I understand). In the book it says girls were too smart to end up in Neverland. The boys ended up there because they would fall out of their strollers. Girls were too smart to do so and that was why there was no girls.
I don't understand why AniMat would give this sh!tty remake credit for diversity. Putting girls in the Lost Boys yet for some reason still calling themselves The Lost Boys is beyond stupid the more you think about it.
@@liamphibia Only if you don't know that a "lost girl" is an old term for prostitute (as in the 1929 movie Diary of a Lost Girl, in which a socialite is raped, impregnated, escaped from a reformatory and then forced into prostitution; as well as the Netflix true crime series Lost Girls). There's a reason "lost girls" didn't catch on in the Disney Peter Pan universe with Return to Neverland. Also, Alan Moore made a semi-pornographic graphic novel called Lost Girls about the sexual adventures of Wendy, Dorothy and Alice as adults(?). Sooooooooo, it would be kind of problematic to call the girls lost girls.
@@Princess_-gp3ep And was much more believable as an adult Peter Pan than that older Peter Pan portrayed as a washed up child actor in last year’s Chip & Dale: Rescue Rangers.
you can do it if you just ignore them instead of hate watching them in theaters, or I shall remind you why 2019's The Lion King surpassed every animated movie in the box office
It's not the *absolute* worst of the live-action remakes; I did like the extra backstory we got for Captain Hook. But my God it's one of the most boring remakes. Disney really needs to grow up and out of this Live-action phase.
It would have worked so well if it at least looked good. More trees and flowers, more sparkles and shine, more saturation and make the characters dress more uniquely! The plot has been told thousands of time in different ways, at least they could have made it look pretty… it looks so grey and washed out that looks more like a depressing war film than a magical movie
The only way we can stop these remakes ia by stop seeing them. At this point, Disney will just keep making more if we keep giving them any sort of revenue and satisfaction.
The thing is. Fans are basically in an abusive relationship with Disney. We keep lying to ourselves that Disney will make a good remake, but they never do.
We can all agree this movie should be called just Wendy The Movie because of how this movie portrayed her, and why Tink had to be changed just for the sake of not having her anti-heroic persona from the original film P.D. Can't help but feeling that one "SO?" from that one lost girl as a cringy dialogue P.D.2 Speaking of the lost girls, they are unnecesary because as the original said "girls are too smart to become lost"
@@cintronproductions9430 I think the only reason they made some of the Lost Boys Girls and specifically black was for diversity same reason they made Tinker Bell Black and Peter Pan...Native American I think?
Making Hook sympathetic is uncessary, since his reason to hate Peter Pan is already understantable. The kid cutted his hand and gave to a crocodile that now chases Hook, who always has panic attack when he sees the reptile coming. Yeah, he still a ruthless pirate, but the fact he has to spend his life running away and scared from the crocodile it's enough to make people feel a bit bad for Hook's situation. His obsession in wanting to kill Peter Pan also works to create a similarity between the hero and the villain: They are both trying to fight time itself and reclaim from their past (Peter wants to stay a child forever and Hook wants his revenge). The difference is that Peter in the end comes to respect Wendy and her brothers wish to return home while Hook, despite having opportunites to let go of his revenge quest (something that even his crew is sick of it), he tries another attempt, only to failed and he end been chase by the crocodile again. His ending is the old saying "Those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it."
Every Disney remake is basically dumb. I don't even need to see the live action little mermaid to know it's gonna be bad. It's sad how Illumination gave us a great movie with The Mario Bros movie and Disney just keeps milking money off of people's nostalgia. Dreamworks has also been doing much better
Well the Mario movie was kinda a nostalgia ride but that movie used it well to make it a movie for the fans, Disney remakes just seem to not even be trying
Everyone's criticizing Disney for being a live-action remake factory but to me, I'm not just fed up with their live-action remakes but their how almost everything they've been doing is live-action, from original shows for Disney+, Marvel projects, and book adaptations. While DreamWorks is turning novels into great movies and shows, Disney, for some reason, doesnt want to animate any of them. From Artemis Fowl to their upcoming shows and movies like Percy Jackson to Eragon to Keeper of the Lost Cities. Those books would have been great animated and yet, Disney only wants them to be generic, live-action slop. Like, if Disney is capable of doing great animated content, why are they so hyper-focused on live-action?
6:05 - 8:02 and 11:18 - 11:22 Heck, I felt the same way how stupid, dumb and pathetic that MGM gave Carface's backstory and redemption arc in All Dog Go to Heaven a Christmas Carol. They did revealed the sad tragic backstory where Carface was a happy puppy 🐶 in his childhood but his owner blamed him for making a mess of Christmas decorations, which gets him thrown out. I'm sorry. Carface doesn't deserve some redemption after all the worse things he committed like child abuse to Anne Marie and attempted murder to his old friend Charlie. They are missing the point of his character development. That is so out of character arc. He's the villain. He's supposed to the character that we should hate and despised for all the crimes he did and they are trying to make us feel sorry and sympathy for him. He doesn't deserved to be in heaven either. He should've deserved some punishment for his past actions. Carface got the Ezra Miller treatment in this Christmas special and sequels. Captain Hook said it best: "NO. That's not how it works." I'm sorry. I don't buy that for a fact. I don't considered 🤔 that as canon either.
@Kimberly. Nu Nu Gonzales Thank you 😊. 🙏🏻 All Dogs Go to Heaven should've been a stand alone animated film and I don't considered the sequels as canon. So yeah, Carface's redemption feels forced and he got the Ezra Miller treatment in these stupid sequels.
@@alexismartinez8343 the 1st All Dogs Go to Heaven movie was a childhood classic when I was a kid but this was Judith Barsi’s last movie to voice act as Anne Marie before her death from her own father that murdered her and his wife
@Kimberly. Nu Nu Gonzales Yeah, I heard the sad tragic 😥 backstory of what happened to Judith Barsi. She didn't deserved this. May she rest in peace 🙏🏻. That was very disrespectful of the sequels to not included Anne Marie in the sequels. Same thing with the Ice Age sequels how they forgotten the Ice Age baby 👶🏻 from the first movie. I don't considered the Ice Age sequels as canon to the first movie either. I understand they wanted to pay respect to Judith Barsi but not mentioning her character in the sequels that is disrespectful too and its like the franchise act and pretend that she doesn't exist in the same universe. Also, Itchy was adopted by the end of the first movie so why the f@#% he forgot about her and never mentioned about her when he arrived in heaven and reunited with Charlie of how Anne Marie is doing in Earth?! ❤️💖 You know what could've been a better All Dogs Go to Heaven 2 sequel? The sequel should've focused where Charlie and Anne Marie are reunited together after years of separation. This would've been a better animated sequel compare to the final product where the sequel would've taken place years later where Anne Marie is now a full grown beautiful young woman in her early 20's but as she grew up she forgot and lost her ability to talk to animals and she forgotten about Charlie and Itchy similar to how Robin Williams's Peter Pan forgotten how to fly and be a kid again. Charlie and Itchy have reincarnated into new different dogs and Charlie has redeemed from his selfish and greedy personality from the first film and wants to be reunited with Anne Marie once again but she doesn't even recognized them and completely forgotten about them similar to how Robin Williams's Peter Pan forgotten about Tinker Bell and the Lost Boys in Hook. Both Charlie and Itchy must find a way to be reunited with Anne Marie and find a way for her to remember them. This sequel would've been taken similar direction and story like Hook and Christopher Robin route where you have a heartwarming emotional story of the supporting character as the main character growing up and needs to be reunited with his or her childhood friends and to embrace their childhood and feel like a kid again. Remembering your inner child and not letting go of your past. A popular kid character in a classic children’s story that grows up and is busy with work to spend time with his family and one of his old friends from a fictional world brings him back to relieve his childhood and learn more about the importance of childhood being innocent and spending more time with family is more important. It would have been heartwarming and emotional about a human owner reuniting his or her dog 🐕❤😢💙💗♥🐕 coming back to life from the dead and it would've made dog owners and animation fans cry and emotional invest with the story and the characters. Imagine reuniting your long lost pet back to life from an unbelievable beautiful heartwarming 💕💖❤♥😍💗💕💖❤ miracle! This could have been one of those rare animated films that will make people especially both kids and adults cry. Honestly, I love that idea and version way better and more so than the actual sequel we got. This could've been the Don Bluth animation equivalent to Hook and Christopher Robin. 😃😀😄😁😊😉 👍🏻 💖❤️
Disney hasn't made a single good remake. Jungle Book, Aladdin, Lion King and Pinocchio are the worst ones. Also, it's insulting how the writer of the Peter Pan remake didn't understand the source material. For example, the reason there aren't any girls among the Lost Boys is because girls are too smart to get lost in the first place (at least in the Peter Pan universe). Another thing they failed at realizing is how important it is to have Hook and Mr. Darling played by the same person. The point is that Wendy has father issues and she projects them onto Hook, who represents everything she fears about adulthood. Hook's defeat is a symbolic gesture of Wendy conquering her fear of adulthood and thus she reconciles with her father.
@@alexismartinez8343 I hated the jungle book remake because it failed to understand either source material. Mowgli lacked the complexity of his cartoon counterpart, the actor playing him had no emotional range whatsoever and delivered his lines as if they were cue cards, the ending was anti-climactic because Mowgli staying in the jungle is as stupid as Wendy staying in Neverland, the friendship between Mowgli and Baloo lacks all emotion, we are never shown why the animals care so much about Mowgli, there are plot holes such as how does Mowgli know water kills fire and why Shere Khan didn't already know about Mowgli if he attends the water truce every year, Kaa has no personality and everything she says is made redundant later, the movie relies heavily on the classic for context, the tone was all over the place, there was no coherent vision and the movie couldn't even decide whether or not it wanted to be a musical. Literally the ONLY good thing the movie did was giving the wolves a bigger role.
I have a feeling Peter’s explanation for there only being boys in Neverland is because “girls are too smart to be lost” is a lie covering up another one of his heinous actions. Given his personality in the original play and book, he probably kidnapped them from their mothers as infants. I mean, it’s not far-fetched considering it’s implied Peter Pan kills the Lost Boys he takes in when they grow up and he cut off Hook’s hand and fed it to the crocodile for sheer pleasure in the original. 🤷♂️
@Vetarlit Torf I do respect your opinion. Here is what I think: 1. I understand your opinion about Mowgli in the remake, heck at least he was given a bit more character than he was in the original film. Let's be honest Mowgli was a whinying brat int he original animated film. 2. I understand this is Newl Sethi's first time as an actor. I don't blamed him. He was only a kid. Maybe he can do better acting once he gets older. Heck, he is nowhere near as bas as that annoying kid actor who voiced Ranjan in Jungle Book 2. 3. The ending that is kinda understandable maybe they will changed the ending for upcoming Jungle Book remake sequel. 4. Personally, Mowgli and Baloo could have more emotional depth like in the original animated film. 5. I believed the elephants 🐘 told Mowgli that water 💧 can stop the red flower 🔥 and Mowgli probably stay at his wolf 🐺 den and never been to the Water Trace before. 6. I do wished Kaa could've more screentime. 7. The tone fits fine for me and the songs 🎵 well they are fine for me. 8. I do loved the fact that the wolves 🐺 were given so much better screentime than the original animated film.
@@alexismartinez8343 Mowgli did not have much of a character in the remake. He was just a generic nice kid who somehow has a master's in engineering despite having no contact with humans. The cartoon Mowgli was not a whiny brat. He was a complex and sympathetic character. We saw how he was at odds with his humanity because he has no perception of it, which resulted in him being existentially confused, insecure and rebellious because of how out of place he was in the jungle. And because of this, he tried to find his identity by imitating other animals. Despite his confusion, he was happy that he at least had a home. So naturally he becomes terrified and desperate to feel loved when he is told to forever leave the only home he's ever known and he responds to the situation as any child would. His relationship with Baloo was so strong specifically because he understood him and realized how Mowgli longed to feel accepted. However, his identity crisis is solved when he meets Shanti, the first time he meets another human. In that moment, he feels a natural connection to her and humanity. Which ultimately makes him realize that what he feels for Shanti is something he can never feel for an animal. Because the jungle has nothing to offer Mowgli but misery and loneliness. It's actually a beautiful transition from childhood (symbolized by the jungle) to adulthood (symbolized by the village). This is the kind of nuance Favreau fails to understand. And I seriously doubt the remake's sequel will ever be made. It's been almost 7 years, Neel Sethi is an adult and there hasn't been any development on the project since 2019.
Honestly this just felt like Disney didn't care about the remake and did the bare minimum to make this, at least with Pinocchio I personally feel like they did care because all of the characters are accurate, except for Monstro, but it still looked and kinda felt like Pinocchio. This looks like some small company took the Peter Pan story and tried to make their own version.
7:16 plus there's a reason why hook and Mr. Darling where played by the same actor. If they wanted hook to play a role in Peter's character development then why not make him his father or something.
Let’s counteract this remake by watching both ‘Hook’ and the 2003 Peter Pan. Both are visual pieces of art! Plus, you got James Newton Howard scoring the 2003 music! How can you go wrong with that?
The more time goes on, the more my tinfoil hat theory about Iger and the other executives being embarrassed by their own company seems to be true. I cannot think of any other reason why they would continue to double down on mistake after mistake unless they either hated or were ashamed by the talent that came before them. Because for all of Michael Eisner's faults, he gave us the Disney Renaissance and the Disney Afternoon block, he let the animators and the creatives do their things instead of handing down note after note or designing movies to be filmed in a way that they could be scrapbooked together depending on what the mood of the moment was. No wonder Iger wanted so badly to be the ambassador to China since he's trying to make corporate-funded media the way they make propaganda films.
Its weird because iger seemed to make a lot of good decisions for the company when he first started. Biggest being he got oswald back. But now it seems like he's just running the company on auto pilot, just making the cheapest and laziest decisions that get the most money
@Brodstar PadPen I don't think he was quite as politically ambitious when he first came in, or possibly he just had to spend his first few years readjusting after Eisner, so it took time to get to this point. I think overspending to buy Fox just to get a small handful of IPs was the turning point, the company has struggled financially ever since, and of course the pandemic didn't help. And then there's the tons of money they poured into that Galactic Starcruiser hotel which is already failing because who wants to (or who can afford to) spend $6000 for an awkward LARP experience in tiny rooms? Maintenance at the parks is laughable, especially in Florida, Walt would be disgusted at the state of things.
Is it any wonder why I despise Bob Iger and the current Disney executive regime with every fiber of my being? That man was responsible with nearly everything wrong with Disney in the modern era. He is worse than a thousand Michael Eisners.
@Brodstar PadPen It really says something when Hunchback of Notre Dame 2 has more entertainment value (at least when UA-camrs are making fun of it) than these remakes. I can live with weird and unappealing animation because it's funny at least.
"Feeling sorry for Hook", I get, since let's be honest, Peter Pan's a brat from the start (he cut off Hook's hand and fed it to a crocodile). Hook, despite being the villain has a thing for "good form", however the surprise thing they did with him made the rivalry not make sense anymore.
HOOK WINS over THIS train wreck. The whole point of the original was Wendy going with Peter to be their mom. Because they didn't even know what a mother WAS. Even Peter didn't know what a mom was.
Honestly, despite how DreamWorks' parent studio Universal is planning on making a live-action How To Train your Dragon, at least they won't don't seem to make remakes their top priority as DreamWorks isn't losing their creative spark of trying to bring more original ideas into animation, whether it be film or TV. DreamWorks, and even Sony, just seems to be doing better than Disney at this point.
@kirara2516 yup but to Universal's credit, at least they won't make LA remakes a priority as long as DreamWorks still makes good, original movies. Hope their Teenage Kraken film will be good
Tinky Winky Nah, DreamWorks gets worse when they released their unnecessary lazy cash grabbing sequels like Trolls, Boss Baby, Spirit Untamed and the Croods. Puss in Boots 2 the Last Wish is the only good sequel. But the rest sucks. 👎
13:16 Thank you so much for giving the 2003 Peter Pan movie recognition! That version is criminally underrated and deserves far more appreciation than people give credit for.
With the release of Peter Pan and Wendy and the fact the 2003 film is turning 20 years old this year, I’m sure the 2003 film will definitely get more recognition and reassessment now.
Thank you for shouting out the 2003 version. I have a huge soft spot for it because I love that iteration of Wendy more than any other. (I do find Disney's Wendy pretty likable, but I have a hard time with her getting treated like garbage by every single person/creature she meets in Neverland, including Peter, specifically because she is a girl.) Also, Jason Isaacs is brilliant as Hook/Darling. The 1953 animated film and the 2003 live-action version TOGETHER make the reason we don't need another live-action version of this story.
I feel that, but I’d argue the disrespect to Wendy in he animation is part of the point of the story - boys who refuse to grow up are obnoxious and don’t appreciate girls the way more mature men learn to. Kind of shows the societal harm of boys refusing to grow up.
So as a Native person who literally desp!ses Peter Pan in its every incarnation , from stage, book, to screen, I was pleasantly surprised by how good the Tiger Lilly representation was. The one good thing from the book I liked was that Tiger Lilly was a leader. Not a single version up until now has utilized that. If they gave her her own movie, i wouldn't be mad. However, I feel partially that this was for non-Native Disney adults and for Disney to justify their uncritical/terrible handling of Peter Pan for decades.
Boy, I hate to see Sweet Pete's reaction after he got out to the asylum from last year's Recuse Ranger Movie only to be betrayed by Disney even more!!!!
Real talk; Was there ANYONE who didn't know that Peter Pan & Wendy was gonna suck? I haven't seen the movie, and will never see it, I'm not planning on paying a Disney+ account to watch it, but even I knew it was gonna suck.
Please tell me that there's more to Neverland than what we see in these clips. Because it seems like in this movie, Neverland, the place literally made up of children's dreams, is an empty island off the coast of Scotland with partially-sunny weather. Neverland in the 2003 version looked like something out of a children's book, the colours are vibrant and each location is fantastical. Sure, a lot of the CGI hasn't aged well, especially in the flying scenes, and some of the locations are obviously sets, but I'd take poor but creative CGI over the bland on-sight shots of the 2023 Neverland. Also, what's up with Peter looking so serious on the cover, and most of the Lost Boys look serious/angry/miserable in their promotional posters too?
I think if there’s a Disney movie more suited to A24’s style, it’s definitely Mulan. I think with the Asian representation and aesthetic along with the great Martial Arts choreography and performances from Asian actors in Everything, Everywhere All at Once, their cinematography, production and costume design and make up and hairstyles in their other films, they can definitely do a better retelling of the Mulan poem than the 2020 remake by Disney.
Say what you will about “Peter Pan & Wendy”, but at least it’s miles better than Disney’s live-action remake of “Pinocchio” and will be even better than their upcoming retelling of “The Little Mermaid”.
I couldn't even see the colors watching peter pansexual and no one. So in my opinion, I feel like little mermaid is doing better with colors. Yes it's more dark which I cannot stand but at least it's got some colors
Even when I saw the teaser trailer, I instinctively began to watch the animated classic, which I frequently have in most ocassions. Yes it still has outdated stereotypes of Native Americans but this ought to be known that this how A CHILD would think of those people back then and it could be the fact that they weren't REALLY Native Americans at all, with a slight exception of Tiger Lily I think, and these people were actually different in the real world. I must point out that the actor who potrayed Pan in this film, Alexander Molony, also provided the voice for Ooo Ooo from Raa Raa (whom I think that character that he voiced is a much better Pan than the remake's interpretation of whomever is this supposed to be.) and Alex the Chick from The Big Bad Fox and Other Tales. As for the inclusivity of the film, or even lackthereof, recall the setting of Cruella. It takes places in 70s Britain, in which it had an already culturally diversive population. This remake takes place in the Victorian era just like its source material yet Wendy, Pan, the Lost Children and even I would daresay Tiger Lily (which is arguably the better aspect of the remake.) were portrayed very contradictory both physically and even mentally which makes the film very anachronistic in terms of the characters in that era. What purpose for Pan, Tink and the Lost Children to be inclusive in terms of their appearances and mannerisms? No reason. What purpose for Wendy to be an independant, capable, strong and even unlikeable feminist icon? No reason. What purpose for Captain Hook to be a tragic villain, which admittedly sounds interesting but it is poorly executed here. No reason. These aspects weren't there to expand the story and its characters, they were added there only for the sake of it, which the thought of it already felt a bit appalling to say the least. At that point, the part that made these live action remakes could have been run by Peg-Leg Pete, the Weasels and the Beagle Boys. Oh and I would remiss of having to quote from Tom, 'Don't you believe it!, after seeing these behind-the-scenes featurettes in which they, the crew and cast, were excited or rather forced to. Disturbing... Another thing, according to one source the director, David Lowerly, stated that this remake is a passion project. HOW is it passion project because I don't see it anywhere so surely he must have been phoning it in. Also, where were the Wayward Sisters from Macbeth to tell the business side of Disney to tell their own fate whence almost all of us needed them to do? In fact, I even made a video that commemorated the release of the remake with a scene that perfectly represents of what is happening now at Disney's business practise. It also might have been controversial and you can find it on my channel. ua-cam.com/video/7-jbE4xUNXc/v-deo.html To end in a more positive note, I would like to give you all very good advice. Don't spend your day hate-watching the recent live actions remakes such as this film and the upcoming Little Mermaid, spend your day not only watching the animated classics but also go to Disney Animation: Immersive Experience. I lived near Toronto and I have seen it with my family last year. I ought to say that this is an enthralling and magical experience through-and-through. I simply cannot recommended it enough. Also, for any LEGO admirers, go afford these LEGO sets of Disney 100 and even make your MOCs (My Own Creation) to celebrate Disney's centennial celebration. That way, you won't waste time on those remakes and to be more excited for Wish.
Just because the Native Americans aren’t real in-universe in the real world in Peter Pan and are fantastic (in reference to fantasy, not as a compliment) doesn’t excuse their racial stereotypical appearance. And I hate to say this…. but I am seeing the live action Little Mermaid remake. I can’t help it. I want to see the collaboration of Alan Menken and Lin Manuel Miranda and how it transfers into the final project. I think regardless of how the quality of the film turns out, the new songs and score will turn out great and I have faith Lin Manuel Miranda will do justice to the late Howard Ashman’s work with his reinterpretation of the iconic songs while respecting the original meanings. Also helps that Lin has a respect for Howard and his song “Under the Sea” was a great influence in inspiring him to pursue his music career, so he’s the perfect choice to write the new songs and handle the old ones. I’m sorry.
@@hunterolaughlin You know what? That's very grand of you to say that you are going to The Little Mermaid. I am not going to stop you, by all means, please do. Also, I think the word that you are searching for is fantastical.
@@TedEhioghae Because I’m willing to see The Little Mermaid remake for Lin Manuel Miranda and Alan Menken. Those 2 aren’t going to screw up in their work regardless of what the quality of the film ends up being.
Like I said to everyone, if there’s any live-action Peter Pan I would rather see but they are considered the best….if not….THE best, they are Hook and Peter Pan from 2003 by Universal and Columbia Pictures.
I like that Animat brought up the Green Knight because I feel it’s an underrated film despite it being trippy and weird. Honestly an A24 Peter Pan film that is not the Disney cartoon would have been interesting than what we got.
Funfact: it's a common misconception that Disney's 1953 animation was the first film adaptation of Peter Pan. But in reality, it's the lesser-known 1924 silent film that takes the place of the first Peter Pan movie.
@@hunterolaughlin Thank you, because I originally wrote the correct year, so I didn't notice that my phone's autocorrection was miscorrecting the year incorrectly.
The fact that Disney dumped this onto their streaming service whilst pushing the marketing of their next theatrical example of a live-action remake, The Little Mermaid, is really telling about how Walt Disney Studios sorted out their priorities.
I think the 2003 version of Peter Pan , Peter looks sweet and protective to Wendy Compared to Disney version of Peter Pan Remakes , when Peter doesn't looks helping Wendy when the mermaids try to drown her instead just laugh at her Peter Pan at 2023 Disney Remakes looks like a bully and psycho crazy jerk
We've got literally thousands of other live action remakes to go through, with which we've got a planned Moana live action remake announced by Dwayne Johnson himself, plus a few more to come before the great appaloosa of lice action remakes of animated movies
The novelization is out. According to that, Ariel will be the one to impale Ursula with a ship. Even though she's a mermaid and has no idea how ships work.
@@vetarlittorf1807 They BETTER include a scene where Eric teaches Ariel to steer cuz if not that'll be absolutely more ridiculous than it already is, ha.
Since mcu is also Disney I Have a theroy of Multiverse happening everywhere not only in Marvel world What if all these movies take in another universe Tinker bell is black Who knows Tbh i had a nostalgic cause i grew up with Jake and neverland pirates
As some people have already stated, this movie is pretty sexist. The original text states there are only Lost Boys because “girls are too smart to be lost”. They traded one offense (the stereotypical designs of the Natives from the 1953 film) for another. I call for a write off!
While I agree with a lot of the points in this video, this has _got_ to be the first time I've heard anyone reviewing this movie say that the acting was decent. Especially Peter Pan and Tinkerbell. Maybe they did the best with what they had to work with, but there are a couple of laughably bad scenes for both of them where absolutely ZERO of the correct emotions are being shown.. It felt like they just went with the first take they shot and called it good. (I can even list off a couple for you to rewatch. The scene where Peter is "killed" and Tink tries to save him. Her face is not horrified and distraught at literally losing her friend right before her eyes.. She looks like she was told to _try_ to look that way but actually has no idea what either of those emotions look like.. And then the scene where the ship is dumped upside down, and Wendy saves Peter from falling. He looks up at her with literally _the most deadpan face_ I have ever seen in a situation where a character literally just had their life saved...
A question to the long dead author of this story in general: Why couldn't Mr. Barrie just come up with the idea of Neverland be filled with actual Indians, Not specific Great Plains or Northwest Native Americans, but actual Indians be they Hindu or Muslim? Thus tying himself to his British colonial empire as a Scottish citizen, why couldn't he just do that!?
The insane wait times for the ride really are due to A. the ride system itself not really being designed to deal with the sort of hourly capacity that rides designed with park capacities of today in mind have and B. It’s status as an iconic dark ride really is more impressive than the ride itself
This may sound weird but I still found this movie to be way more enjoyable than Pan 2015. You all can argue with me all you want but it's my opinion and I'm sticking with it
Compared to some of the other live action remakes, I can see why they needed to remake Peter Pan, mainly because of the racially insensitive and stereotypical portrayal of the Native Americans. However, having to see this movie, it was so dull and boring. It makes me beg to see the Disney Pinocchio remake again. At least that one had some spectacularly bad moments and you do wonder what stupid edition it might throw at you next. Also, I hate to say this, but native americans in the original, as outdated as they were protrayed back then, looked more colorful, lively and fun to hang out with. If you want a Peter Pan live action film, Animat recommends the 2003 film. I recommend Hook starring Robin Williams and Dustin Hoffman. But if you want a spectularly bad Peter Pan film instead of a dull and boring one, try peaking at the 2015 one.
Fox's Peter Pan and the Pirates Series is my favorite adaption of Peter Pan.....the Best....in my opinion. Maybe because I was 10 when it came out and I grew up with it
Disney will never admit their live remakes suck harder than a Hoover. They'd rather double down and call us "istaphobes" for rightfully calling them out.
Oh course it's bad, all remakes lost our respect after Mulan. Won't be surprised if Little Mermaid bombs too. God, it's like Disney wants to die after 100 years.
9:23 - 9:39 Wow! How stupid and pathetic that Pete's parents gets killed over a car crash by a running deer 🦌 and Pete some how survived? What the F#$%? There is no way a little kid can survived that car crash. I felt the same way how stupidly DreamWorks killed off Lucky's mother 👩🏻 in Spirit Untamed. Unlike most animated films like Bambi or Lion King, they killed off the parents in intense but dark emotional way but here on the other hand they killed off Lucky's mother in such a stupid pathetic lazy way. Seriously how did Lucky's mother 👩🏻 gets killed by that leap horse 🐎 jump in the circus 🎪 act and yet her daughter Lucky did the same thing by doing a leap act with Spirit and she came out okay just because she is the main protagonist?! That's lazy 😴 writing ✍️🏻 in general. 🥱😒😏 Wow, I totally didn't see that coming. Sarcasm.
@Hunter O'Laughlin Tell me about it. The cliche dead mother 👩🏻 trope is such a cliche Hollywood trend in animation. At least Bambi's mother, Littlefoot's mother, Tod's mother and Mufasa's deaths did make me cry. 😢 DreamWorks did a better job handling dead parent deaths like Po's mother 👩🏻 from Kung Fu Panda 2 and Stoick's death from HTTYD 2 make me cry better. This one didn't. It failed. It failed so much. Plus, that is ridiculous that Lucky somehow survived through that horse 🐎 leap in the climax just like she copy her mother. Come on, there is no way a little girl that age and size can survived from the leap in real life. She could've died too. 😪 🤦🏻
5:34 In my opinion I think diversity is good when it's done with original characters and not race swapping already existing ones. It comes across as very half assed to me, as if Disney can't be bothered to consistently make original new characters that have different races so they just take white characters and change them because it's easier and they won't receive nearly as much backlash compared to if they did the same in vice versa. I just find it unfortunate that this is starting to become a more widespread trend now with other companies such as Netflix and Discovery Warner Bros doing it now as well it's as if history is repeating itself.
@@danielsvetlichny5721 I did say "Disney doesn't want to put in the effort to make original diverse characters consistently" as in Disney still makes new characters that are diverse but only some times not all the time.

Looks like Wasteland not Neverland.
The reason The Lost Boys were boys was flat out stated in the book (not the movie though so I understand). In the book it says girls were too smart to end up in Neverland. The boys ended up there because they would fall out of their strollers. Girls were too smart to do so and that was why there was no girls.
I don't understand why AniMat would give this sh!tty remake credit for diversity. Putting girls in the Lost Boys yet for some reason still calling themselves The Lost Boys is beyond stupid the more you think about it.
@@liamphibia hes doing that?
Mat, you know them doing this nullifies their group name? Just retitle it to lost kids then!
You see, this movie really is progressive! Girls are equally as dumb as boys now!
@@liamphibia Only if you don't know that a "lost girl" is an old term for prostitute (as in the 1929 movie Diary of a Lost Girl, in which a socialite is raped, impregnated, escaped from a reformatory and then forced into prostitution; as well as the Netflix true crime series Lost Girls). There's a reason "lost girls" didn't catch on in the Disney Peter Pan universe with Return to Neverland. Also, Alan Moore made a semi-pornographic graphic novel called Lost Girls about the sexual adventures of Wendy, Dorothy and Alice as adults(?). Sooooooooo, it would be kind of problematic to call the girls lost girls.
So Disney is stating that girls are as stupid as boys? Oh wow! That's a good way to eliminate discrimination on sex, Disney! Thanks, I hate it!

Let’s be honest. The 2003 version is the superior live action Peter Pan.
Universal/Sony Superior
Disney Inferior
Don't forget Hook
AGREE!!!!

It's not the *absolute* worst of the live-action remakes; I did like the extra backstory we got for Captain Hook. But my God it's one of the most boring remakes. Disney really needs to grow up and out of this Live-action phase.
What's funny is that for all the 2010's goodness they created, they fell Into this remake liveaction junkie phase
I’d considered it the 3rd worst behind Mulan and Pinocchio
It would have worked so well if it at least looked good. More trees and flowers, more sparkles and shine, more saturation and make the characters dress more uniquely! The plot has been told thousands of time in different ways, at least they could have made it look pretty… it looks so grey and washed out that looks more like a depressing war film than a magical movie
I’m sick of crappy Disney live action remakes

Having Lost "girlboys" literally defeats the purpose of Wendy in the story as she was brought too Neverland too be a maternal figure for the lost boys
If they were only there to appeal to the minorities and make Disney look progressive and inclusive... And look how that turned out.
I remember saying "That's not Neverland that's Northern Ireland" when they introduced it
Neverland? More like never is there any colour land
The only way we can stop these remakes ia by stop seeing them. At this point, Disney will just keep making more if we keep giving them any sort of revenue and satisfaction.
That's exactly what I've done for the most part.
The thing is. Fans are basically in an abusive relationship with Disney. We keep lying to ourselves that Disney will make a good remake, but they never do.
I heard that the Little Mermaid remake is projected to flop anyways.
Exactly that’s the main point
That's why I pirate most of their movies
Out of all the Disney Live-Action remakes thus far, this one probably shot itself in the foot the most in terms of the new concepts it pushed in.
"The most whimsical car crash" has the same vibes as "The funniest gasoline fight accident".
We can all agree this movie should be called just Wendy The Movie because of how this movie portrayed her, and why Tink had to be changed just for the sake of not having her anti-heroic persona from the original film
P.D. Can't help but feeling that one "SO?" from that one lost girl as a cringy dialogue
P.D.2 Speaking of the lost girls, they are unnecesary because as the original said "girls are too smart to become lost"
So basically, this movie is calling girls stupid. And girls of color at that..... jeez......

We all know that’s a lie fabricated by Peter Pan and he OBVIOUSLY KIDNAPPED those Lost Boys from their mothers to make an all-boy cult.
@@PeterGriffin11peter pancho
Making Hook sympathetic is uncessary, since his reason to hate Peter Pan is already understantable. The kid cutted his hand and gave to a crocodile that now chases Hook, who always has panic attack when he sees the reptile coming. Yeah, he still a ruthless pirate, but the fact he has to spend his life running away and scared from the crocodile it's enough to make people feel a bit bad for Hook's situation.
His obsession in wanting to kill Peter Pan also works to create a similarity between the hero and the villain: They are both trying to fight time itself and reclaim from their past (Peter wants to stay a child forever and Hook wants his revenge). The difference is that Peter in the end comes to respect Wendy and her brothers wish to return home while Hook, despite having opportunites to let go of his revenge quest (something that even his crew is sick of it), he tries another attempt, only to failed and he end been chase by the crocodile again. His ending is the old saying "Those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it."
Every Disney remake is basically dumb. I don't even need to see the live action little mermaid to know it's gonna be bad. It's sad how Illumination gave us a great movie with The Mario Bros movie and Disney just keeps milking money off of people's nostalgia. Dreamworks has also been doing much better
Well the Mario movie was kinda a nostalgia ride but that movie used it well to make it a movie for the fans, Disney remakes just seem to not even be trying
Everyone's criticizing Disney for being a live-action remake factory but to me, I'm not just fed up with their live-action remakes but their how almost everything they've been doing is live-action, from original shows for Disney+, Marvel projects, and book adaptations. While DreamWorks is turning novels into great movies and shows, Disney, for some reason, doesnt want to animate any of them. From Artemis Fowl to their upcoming shows and movies like Percy Jackson to Eragon to Keeper of the Lost Cities. Those books would have been great animated and yet, Disney only wants them to be generic, live-action slop. Like, if Disney is capable of doing great animated content, why are they so hyper-focused on live-action?
I salute you for mentioning the Peter Pan Goes Wrong special! That thing is underrated as hell and MUST be seen as much as any other adaptation!
At least it's enjoyable while watching it.
6:05 - 8:02 and 11:18 - 11:22 Heck, I felt the same way how stupid, dumb and pathetic that MGM gave Carface's backstory and redemption arc in All Dog Go to Heaven a Christmas Carol.
They did revealed the sad tragic backstory where Carface was a happy puppy 🐶 in his childhood but his owner blamed him for making a mess of Christmas decorations, which gets him thrown out. I'm sorry. Carface doesn't deserve some redemption after all the worse things he committed like child abuse to Anne Marie and attempted murder to his old friend Charlie. They are missing the point of his character development. That is so out of character arc. He's the villain. He's supposed to the character that we should hate and despised for all the crimes he did and they are trying to make us feel sorry and sympathy for him. He doesn't deserved to be in heaven either. He should've deserved some punishment for his past actions. Carface got the Ezra Miller treatment in this Christmas special and sequels. Captain Hook said it best: "NO. That's not how it works."
I'm sorry. I don't buy that for a fact. I don't considered 🤔 that as canon either.
Tbh the All Dogs Go to Heaven sequels suck because Carface doesn’t deserve redemption and I totally agree with you on that point ❤
@Kimberly. Nu Nu Gonzales Thank you 😊. 🙏🏻 All Dogs Go to Heaven should've been a stand alone animated film and I don't considered the sequels as canon. So yeah, Carface's redemption feels forced and he got the Ezra Miller treatment in these stupid sequels.
@@alexismartinez8343 the 1st All Dogs Go to Heaven movie was a childhood classic when I was a kid but this was Judith Barsi’s last movie to voice act as Anne Marie before her death from her own father that murdered her and his wife
@Kimberly. Nu Nu Gonzales Yeah, I heard the sad tragic 😥 backstory of what happened to Judith Barsi. She didn't deserved this. May she rest in peace 🙏🏻.
That was very disrespectful of the sequels to not included Anne Marie in the sequels. Same thing with the Ice Age sequels how they forgotten the Ice Age baby 👶🏻 from the first movie. I don't considered the Ice Age sequels as canon to the first movie either. I understand they wanted to pay respect to Judith Barsi but not mentioning her character in the sequels that is disrespectful too and its like the franchise act and pretend that she doesn't exist in the same universe. Also, Itchy was adopted by the end of the first movie so why the f@#% he forgot about her and never mentioned about her when he arrived in heaven and reunited with Charlie of how Anne Marie is doing in Earth?!
❤️💖 You know what could've been a better All Dogs Go to Heaven 2 sequel? The sequel should've focused where Charlie and Anne Marie are reunited together after years of separation.
This would've been a better animated sequel compare to the final product where the sequel would've taken place years later where Anne Marie is now a full grown beautiful young woman in her early 20's but as she grew up she forgot and lost her ability to talk to animals and she forgotten about Charlie and Itchy similar to how Robin Williams's Peter Pan forgotten how to fly and be a kid again. Charlie and Itchy have reincarnated into new different dogs and Charlie has redeemed from his selfish and greedy personality from the first film and wants to be reunited with Anne Marie once again but she doesn't even recognized them and completely forgotten about them similar to how Robin Williams's Peter Pan forgotten about Tinker Bell and the Lost Boys in Hook. Both Charlie and Itchy must find a way to be reunited with Anne Marie and find a way for her to remember them. This sequel would've been taken similar direction and story like Hook and Christopher Robin route where you have a heartwarming emotional story of the supporting character as the main character growing up and needs to be reunited with his or her childhood friends and to embrace their childhood and feel like a kid again. Remembering your inner child and not letting go of your past. A popular kid character in a classic children’s story that grows up and is busy with work to spend time with his family and one of his old friends from a fictional world brings him back to relieve his childhood and learn more about the importance of childhood being innocent and spending more time with family is more important. It would have been heartwarming and emotional about a human owner reuniting his or her dog 🐕❤😢💙💗♥🐕 coming back to life from the dead and it would've made dog owners and animation fans cry and emotional invest with the story and the characters. Imagine reuniting your long lost pet back to life from an unbelievable beautiful heartwarming 💕💖❤♥😍💗💕💖❤ miracle! This could have been one of those rare animated films that will make people especially both kids and adults cry. Honestly, I love that idea and version way better and more so than the actual sequel we got. This could've been the Don Bluth animation equivalent to Hook and Christopher Robin. 😃😀😄😁😊😉 👍🏻 💖❤️
The only Peter Pan movies I recognize are the 1924 silent film, Original Disney Cartoon, Hook, and the 2003 adaptation.
And don’t forget the 1960 TV musical with Mary Martin.

Wow, so the 2003 Universal movie is still the better one? I mean James Newton Howard wrote an amazing score!
5/10? nonononono, NO!
This remake actually deserves 2! A 2/10!!
The 2003 is really under rated.
Was anyone else expecting him to give this one the Animat Seal of Garbage?
I was tbh. It had worse ratings than the Pinocchio remake and I thought he would agree with the others reviewing this movie
Disney hasn't made a single good remake. Jungle Book, Aladdin, Lion King and Pinocchio are the worst ones.
Also, it's insulting how the writer of the Peter Pan remake didn't understand the source material. For example, the reason there aren't any girls among the Lost Boys is because girls are too smart to get lost in the first place (at least in the Peter Pan universe). Another thing they failed at realizing is how important it is to have Hook and Mr. Darling played by the same person. The point is that Wendy has father issues and she projects them onto Hook, who represents everything she fears about adulthood. Hook's defeat is a symbolic gesture of Wendy conquering her fear of adulthood and thus she reconciles with her father.
You do make up a good point man.
Wait you don't like the Jungle Book remake? I loved that remake in my honest opinion.
@@alexismartinez8343 I hated the jungle book remake because it failed to understand either source material. Mowgli lacked the complexity of his cartoon counterpart, the actor playing him had no emotional range whatsoever and delivered his lines as if they were cue cards, the ending was anti-climactic because Mowgli staying in the jungle is as stupid as Wendy staying in Neverland, the friendship between Mowgli and Baloo lacks all emotion, we are never shown why the animals care so much about Mowgli, there are plot holes such as how does Mowgli know water kills fire and why Shere Khan didn't already know about Mowgli if he attends the water truce every year, Kaa has no personality and everything she says is made redundant later, the movie relies heavily on the classic for context, the tone was all over the place, there was no coherent vision and the movie couldn't even decide whether or not it wanted to be a musical.
Literally the ONLY good thing the movie did was giving the wolves a bigger role.
I have a feeling Peter’s explanation for there only being boys in Neverland is because “girls are too smart to be lost” is a lie covering up another one of his heinous actions. Given his personality in the original play and book, he probably kidnapped them from their mothers as infants. I mean, it’s not far-fetched considering it’s implied Peter Pan kills the Lost Boys he takes in when they grow up and he cut off Hook’s hand and fed it to the crocodile for sheer pleasure in the original. 🤷♂️
@Vetarlit Torf I do respect your opinion. Here is what I think:
1. I understand your opinion about Mowgli in the remake, heck at least he was given a bit more character than he was in the original film. Let's be honest Mowgli was a whinying brat int he original animated film.
2. I understand this is Newl Sethi's first time as an actor. I don't blamed him. He was only a kid. Maybe he can do better acting once he gets older. Heck, he is nowhere near as bas as that annoying kid actor who voiced Ranjan in Jungle Book 2.
3. The ending that is kinda understandable maybe they will changed the ending for upcoming Jungle Book remake sequel.
4. Personally, Mowgli and Baloo could have more emotional depth like in the original animated film.
5. I believed the elephants 🐘 told Mowgli that water 💧 can stop the red flower 🔥 and Mowgli probably stay at his wolf 🐺 den and never been to the Water Trace before.
6. I do wished Kaa could've more screentime.
7. The tone fits fine for me and the songs 🎵 well they are fine for me.
8. I do loved the fact that the wolves 🐺 were given so much better screentime than the original animated film.
@@alexismartinez8343 Mowgli did not have much of a character in the remake. He was just a generic nice kid who somehow has a master's in engineering despite having no contact with humans.
The cartoon Mowgli was not a whiny brat. He was a complex and sympathetic character. We saw how he was at odds with his humanity because he has no perception of it, which resulted in him being existentially confused, insecure and rebellious because of how out of place he was in the jungle. And because of this, he tried to find his identity by imitating other animals.
Despite his confusion, he was happy that he at least had a home. So naturally he becomes terrified and desperate to feel loved when he is told to forever leave the only home he's ever known and he responds to the situation as any child would. His relationship with Baloo was so strong specifically because he understood him and realized how Mowgli longed to feel accepted.
However, his identity crisis is solved when he meets Shanti, the first time he meets another human. In that moment, he feels a natural connection to her and humanity. Which ultimately makes him realize that what he feels for Shanti is something he can never feel for an animal. Because the jungle has nothing to offer Mowgli but misery and loneliness. It's actually a beautiful transition from childhood (symbolized by the jungle) to adulthood (symbolized by the village).
This is the kind of nuance Favreau fails to understand.
And I seriously doubt the remake's sequel will ever be made. It's been almost 7 years, Neel Sethi is an adult and there hasn't been any development on the project since 2019.
Honestly this just felt like Disney didn't care about the remake and did the bare minimum to make this, at least with Pinocchio I personally feel like they did care because all of the characters are accurate, except for Monstro, but it still looked and kinda felt like Pinocchio. This looks like some small company took the Peter Pan story and tried to make their own version.
This remake should have been titled "Peter Bland and Voidy".
Or more like "Peter Pander and Wokedy" 😂😂😂
7:16 plus there's a reason why hook and Mr. Darling where played by the same actor. If they wanted hook to play a role in Peter's character development then why not make him his father or something.
I didn't even realize that Peter Pan and Wendy was already out, Pirates of the carribian: Neverland addition. The Green Knight seems interesting.
I love how Mat just stares at his computer waiting until it’s time to review something.
5:51 Points for Diversity? Bro, that's Literally the problem why this new Disney Movies are Sh*t
the lost boys were also diverse in Hook..so this is not groundbreaking
Let’s counteract this remake by watching both ‘Hook’ and the 2003 Peter Pan. Both are visual pieces of art!
Plus, you got James Newton Howard scoring the 2003 music! How can you go wrong with that?
The more time goes on, the more my tinfoil hat theory about Iger and the other executives being embarrassed by their own company seems to be true. I cannot think of any other reason why they would continue to double down on mistake after mistake unless they either hated or were ashamed by the talent that came before them. Because for all of Michael Eisner's faults, he gave us the Disney Renaissance and the Disney Afternoon block, he let the animators and the creatives do their things instead of handing down note after note or designing movies to be filmed in a way that they could be scrapbooked together depending on what the mood of the moment was. No wonder Iger wanted so badly to be the ambassador to China since he's trying to make corporate-funded media the way they make propaganda films.
Its weird because iger seemed to make a lot of good decisions for the company when he first started. Biggest being he got oswald back. But now it seems like he's just running the company on auto pilot, just making the cheapest and laziest decisions that get the most money
@Brodstar PadPen I don't think he was quite as politically ambitious when he first came in, or possibly he just had to spend his first few years readjusting after Eisner, so it took time to get to this point. I think overspending to buy Fox just to get a small handful of IPs was the turning point, the company has struggled financially ever since, and of course the pandemic didn't help. And then there's the tons of money they poured into that Galactic Starcruiser hotel which is already failing because who wants to (or who can afford to) spend $6000 for an awkward LARP experience in tiny rooms? Maintenance at the parks is laughable, especially in Florida, Walt would be disgusted at the state of things.
Is it any wonder why I despise Bob Iger and the current Disney executive regime with every fiber of my being? That man was responsible with nearly everything wrong with Disney in the modern era. He is worse than a thousand Michael Eisners.
@@maniacaldude I'd take a million direct to DVD sequels under isner over one more live action remake under iger any day
@Brodstar PadPen It really says something when Hunchback of Notre Dame 2 has more entertainment value (at least when UA-camrs are making fun of it) than these remakes. I can live with weird and unappealing animation because it's funny at least.
"Feeling sorry for Hook", I get, since let's be honest, Peter Pan's a brat from the start (he cut off Hook's hand and fed it to a crocodile). Hook, despite being the villain has a thing for "good form", however the surprise thing they did with him made the rivalry not make sense anymore.
Disney presents: "The WENDY MOVIE!!!...with some dude named peterpanorwhatever"
0:51 Me at the thought of a live-action Lilo & Stitch movie...
HOOK WINS over THIS train wreck.
The whole point of the original was Wendy going with Peter to be their mom. Because they didn't even know what a mother WAS. Even Peter didn't know what a mom was.
I completely forgot that this movie came out lmaoooooo
This is why I'm sticking with Dreamworks.
Honestly, despite how DreamWorks' parent studio Universal is planning on making a live-action How To Train your Dragon, at least they won't don't seem to make remakes their top priority as DreamWorks isn't losing their creative spark of trying to bring more original ideas into animation, whether it be film or TV. DreamWorks, and even Sony, just seems to be doing better than Disney at this point.

With the release of Peter Pan and Wendy and the fact the 2003 film is turning 20 years old this year, I’m sure the 2003 film will definitely get more recognition and reassessment now.

Disney should stop now. At this point, they're just making remakes for the sake of making a remake.
Thank you for shouting out the 2003 version. I have a huge soft spot for it because I love that iteration of Wendy more than any other. (I do find Disney's Wendy pretty likable, but I have a hard time with her getting treated like garbage by every single person/creature she meets in Neverland, including Peter, specifically because she is a girl.) Also, Jason Isaacs is brilliant as Hook/Darling. The 1953 animated film and the 2003 live-action version TOGETHER make the reason we don't need another live-action version of this story.
Considering that we're talking about other Versions of Peter pan here I would also recommend the syfy series neverland I believe it was called
I feel that, but I’d argue the disrespect to Wendy in he animation is part of the point of the story - boys who refuse to grow up are obnoxious and don’t appreciate girls the way more mature men learn to. Kind of shows the societal harm of boys refusing to grow up.
The 2003 version will forever be the best live action of Peter Pan for me!😍😍
So as a Native person who literally desp!ses Peter Pan in its every incarnation , from stage, book, to screen, I was pleasantly surprised by how good the Tiger Lilly representation was. The one good thing from the book I liked was that Tiger Lilly was a leader. Not a single version up until now has utilized that. If they gave her her own movie, i wouldn't be mad.
However, I feel partially that this was for non-Native Disney adults and for Disney to justify their uncritical/terrible handling of Peter Pan for decades.
0:39-0:54 literally my reaction everytime a movie that already exists gets a remake
Boy, I hate to see Sweet Pete's reaction after he got out to the asylum from last year's Recuse Ranger Movie only to be betrayed by Disney even more!!!!
Love the inclusion of Peter Pan Goes Wrong 😆
That 2015 origin story “Pan” was more respectful than this trash!!!
Real talk; Was there ANYONE who didn't know that Peter Pan & Wendy was gonna suck?
I haven't seen the movie, and will never see it, I'm not planning on paying a Disney+ account to watch it, but even I knew it was gonna suck.
Please tell me that there's more to Neverland than what we see in these clips. Because it seems like in this movie, Neverland, the place literally made up of children's dreams, is an empty island off the coast of Scotland with partially-sunny weather.
Neverland in the 2003 version looked like something out of a children's book, the colours are vibrant and each location is fantastical. Sure, a lot of the CGI hasn't aged well, especially in the flying scenes, and some of the locations are obviously sets, but I'd take poor but creative CGI over the bland on-sight shots of the 2023 Neverland.
Also, what's up with Peter looking so serious on the cover, and most of the Lost Boys look serious/angry/miserable in their promotional posters too?
I'll love to see an A24 version of Peter Pan.
I think if there’s a Disney movie more suited to A24’s style, it’s definitely Mulan. I think with the Asian representation and aesthetic along with the great Martial Arts choreography and performances from Asian actors in Everything, Everywhere All at Once, their cinematography, production and costume design and make up and hairstyles in their other films, they can definitely do a better retelling of the Mulan poem than the 2020 remake by Disney.
@@hunterolaughlin A straight-from-the-source adaptation of Mulan from A24 -- YES!
I'll wait for the horror movie version of Peter Pan to come out which is Peter Pan Neverland Nightmare
Say what you will about “Peter Pan & Wendy”, but at least it’s miles better than Disney’s live-action remake of “Pinocchio” and will be even better than their upcoming retelling of “The Little Mermaid”.
Well...I gues you have a point there. Either way, those three remakes are a pile of horseshit, nonetheless.
Ok, all of them are bad but at least Little Mermaid will have more color and spectacle than Brooding Pan and Darky, which isn't saying that much. XD
@@cintronproductions9430 color? Lmao what color? You can't see shit even with all your screen's brightness to the maximum
@@_the_little_mermaid_ Exactly, emphasis on "which isn't saying much". Well, at least the Under the Sea scene looks colorful. But the rest? Yikes. XD
I couldn't even see the colors watching peter pansexual and no one. So in my opinion, I feel like little mermaid is doing better with colors. Yes it's more dark which I cannot stand but at least it's got some colors
How does it compare to the 2003 Peter Pan film with Jason Isaacs?
2003 version automatically wins.
It’s official: Dustin Hoffmann was the better - nay, the SUPERIOR Captain Hook. Jude was such a wimp in this movie.
Jason Isaacs and Hans Conried: “Why, we oughta make ya walk the plank!”
I almost thought of watching this movie just to see Jim Gaffigan as Smee. But then I thought its not worth it, no matter how much I love the guy
To be fair, it was David Lowery. This had some potential and is, sadly, one of the better remakes.
6:51 *Me when Starbucks didn’t give me my order😂😂*
Even when I saw the teaser trailer, I instinctively began to watch the animated classic, which I frequently have in most ocassions. Yes it still has outdated stereotypes of Native Americans but this ought to be known that this how A CHILD would think of those people back then and it could be the fact that they weren't REALLY Native Americans at all, with a slight exception of Tiger Lily I think, and these people were actually different in the real world.
I must point out that the actor who potrayed Pan in this film, Alexander Molony, also provided the voice for Ooo Ooo from Raa Raa (whom I think that character that he voiced is a much better Pan than the remake's interpretation of whomever is this supposed to be.) and Alex the Chick from The Big Bad Fox and Other Tales.
As for the inclusivity of the film, or even lackthereof, recall the setting of Cruella. It takes places in 70s Britain, in which it had an already culturally diversive population. This remake takes place in the Victorian era just like its source material yet Wendy, Pan, the Lost Children and even I would daresay Tiger Lily (which is arguably the better aspect of the remake.) were portrayed very contradictory both physically and even mentally which makes the film very anachronistic in terms of the characters in that era. What purpose for Pan, Tink and the Lost Children to be inclusive in terms of their appearances and mannerisms? No reason. What purpose for Wendy to be an independant, capable, strong and even unlikeable feminist icon? No reason. What purpose for Captain Hook to be a tragic villain, which admittedly sounds interesting but it is poorly executed here. No reason. These aspects weren't there to expand the story and its characters, they were added there only for the sake of it, which the thought of it already felt a bit appalling to say the least. At that point, the part that made these live action remakes could have been run by Peg-Leg Pete, the Weasels and the Beagle Boys.
Oh and I would remiss of having to quote from Tom, 'Don't you believe it!, after seeing these behind-the-scenes featurettes in which they, the crew and cast, were excited or rather forced to. Disturbing...
Another thing, according to one source the director, David Lowerly, stated that this remake is a passion project. HOW is it passion project because I don't see it anywhere so surely he must have been phoning it in.
Also, where were the Wayward Sisters from Macbeth to tell the business side of Disney to tell their own fate whence almost all of us needed them to do?
In fact, I even made a video that commemorated the release of the remake with a scene that perfectly represents of what is happening now at Disney's business practise. It also might have been controversial and you can find it on my channel. ua-cam.com/video/7-jbE4xUNXc/v-deo.html
To end in a more positive note, I would like to give you all very good advice. Don't spend your day hate-watching the recent live actions remakes such as this film and the upcoming Little Mermaid, spend your day not only watching the animated classics but also go to Disney Animation: Immersive Experience. I lived near Toronto and I have seen it with my family last year. I ought to say that this is an enthralling and magical experience through-and-through. I simply cannot recommended it enough. Also, for any LEGO admirers, go afford these LEGO sets of Disney 100 and even make your MOCs (My Own Creation) to celebrate Disney's centennial celebration. That way, you won't waste time on those remakes and to be more excited for Wish.
Just because the Native Americans aren’t real in-universe in the real world in Peter Pan and are fantastic (in reference to fantasy, not as a compliment) doesn’t excuse their racial stereotypical appearance.
And I hate to say this…. but I am seeing the live action Little Mermaid remake. I can’t help it. I want to see the collaboration of Alan Menken and Lin Manuel Miranda and how it transfers into the final project. I think regardless of how the quality of the film turns out, the new songs and score will turn out great and I have faith Lin Manuel Miranda will do justice to the late Howard Ashman’s work with his reinterpretation of the iconic songs while respecting the original meanings. Also helps that Lin has a respect for Howard and his song “Under the Sea” was a great influence in inspiring him to pursue his music career, so he’s the perfect choice to write the new songs and handle the old ones. I’m sorry.
@@hunterolaughlin You know what? That's very grand of you to say that you are going to The Little Mermaid. I am not going to stop you, by all means, please do. Also, I think the word that you are searching for is fantastical.
@@danielsvetlichny5721 And why is it grand of him?
What about Peter Pan (2003)?
@@TedEhioghae Because I’m willing to see The Little Mermaid remake for Lin Manuel Miranda and Alan Menken. Those 2 aren’t going to screw up in their work regardless of what the quality of the film ends up being.
I got a request from my daughter this weekend. She wanted to see Peter pan.
I thought, sure, I could need some nostalgia.
But she meant this wreck 😢.
Like I said to everyone, if there’s any live-action Peter Pan I would rather see but they are considered the best….if not….THE best, they are Hook and Peter Pan from 2003 by Universal and Columbia Pictures.
If Disney HAS to remake crap, why not redo some of their misfires? It’s dinosaur movie could use some love
I like that Animat brought up the Green Knight because I feel it’s an underrated film despite it being trippy and weird. Honestly an A24 Peter Pan film that is not the Disney cartoon would have been interesting than what we got.
Funfact: it's a common misconception that Disney's 1953 animation was the first film adaptation of Peter Pan. But in reality, it's the lesser-known 1924 silent film that takes the place of the first Peter Pan movie.
Disney’s Peter Pan came out in 1953, not 1956.
@@hunterolaughlin Thank you, because I originally wrote the correct year, so I didn't notice that my phone's autocorrection was miscorrecting the year incorrectly.
@@danielmalinen6337 Ikr? Stupid autocorrect. 🤦♂️
The fact that Disney dumped this onto their streaming service whilst pushing the marketing of their next theatrical example of a live-action remake, The Little Mermaid, is really telling about how Walt Disney Studios sorted out their priorities.
I think the 2003 version of Peter Pan
, Peter looks sweet and protective to Wendy
Compared to Disney version of Peter Pan
Remakes , when Peter doesn't looks helping Wendy when the mermaids try to drown her instead just laugh at her
Peter Pan at 2023 Disney Remakes looks like a bully and psycho crazy jerk
That face in the beginning 😂 I'm glad I'm not the only one
We've got literally thousands of other live action remakes to go through, with which we've got a planned Moana live action remake announced by Dwayne Johnson himself, plus a few more to come before the great appaloosa of lice action remakes of animated movies
Now I'm more worried about the little mermaid
The novelization is out. According to that, Ariel will be the one to impale Ursula with a ship. Even though she's a mermaid and has no idea how ships work.
@@vetarlittorf1807 They BETTER include a scene where Eric teaches Ariel to steer cuz if not that'll be absolutely more ridiculous than it already is, ha.
@@cintronproductions9430 It wouldn't make sense either way because she's a mermaid and therefore unable to stand.
@@vetarlittorf1807 True, I mean, if she can stand on her tail just fine, why even do all that crap for legs? XD
Since mcu is also Disney I
Have a theroy of Multiverse happening everywhere not only in Marvel world

Who knows
Tbh i had a nostalgic cause i grew up with Jake and neverland pirates
This review gave me more joy than Peter Pan And Wendy.
Sympathetic spins on Disney villains, they could work if done right. Otherwise, let them alone and be who they’re meant to be, just villains.
As some people have already stated, this movie is pretty sexist. The original text states there are only Lost Boys because “girls are too smart to be lost”. They traded one offense (the stereotypical designs of the Natives from the 1953 film) for another. I call for a write off!
While I agree with a lot of the points in this video, this has _got_ to be the first time I've heard anyone reviewing this movie say that the acting was decent. Especially Peter Pan and Tinkerbell. Maybe they did the best with what they had to work with, but there are a couple of laughably bad scenes for both of them where absolutely ZERO of the correct emotions are being shown.. It felt like they just went with the first take they shot and called it good. (I can even list off a couple for you to rewatch. The scene where Peter is "killed" and Tink tries to save him. Her face is not horrified and distraught at literally losing her friend right before her eyes.. She looks like she was told to _try_ to look that way but actually has no idea what either of those emotions look like.. And then the scene where the ship is dumped upside down, and Wendy saves Peter from falling. He looks up at her with literally _the most deadpan face_ I have ever seen in a situation where a character literally just had their life saved...
Animat: I like the diversity aspect
Also Animat: 0:36
Grabs Popcorn. Another live action soulless remake from Disney? 😂
Disney, IT'S TIME TO STOP!
A question to the long dead author of this story in general: Why couldn't Mr. Barrie just come up with the idea of Neverland be filled with actual Indians, Not specific Great Plains or Northwest Native Americans, but actual Indians be they Hindu or Muslim? Thus tying himself to his British colonial empire as a Scottish citizen, why couldn't he just do that!?
Wait the father is

Imagine Schaffrillas reaction to this film
The insane wait times for the ride really are due to A. the ride system itself not really being designed to deal with the sort of hourly capacity that rides designed with park capacities of today in mind have and B. It’s status as an iconic dark ride really is more impressive than the ride itself
I literaly just watched your peter pan 2003 review a few days ago lol its sad something from almost 20 years ago is better than the latest entry
0:47 me when I wake up in the morning and founded out that I need to delete photos to make room for storage on my iPad.
This may sound weird but I still found this movie to be way more enjoyable than Pan 2015. You all can argue with me all you want but it's my opinion and I'm sticking with it
Compared to some of the other live action remakes, I can see why they needed to remake Peter Pan, mainly because of the racially insensitive and stereotypical portrayal of the Native Americans. However, having to see this movie, it was so dull and boring. It makes me beg to see the Disney Pinocchio remake again. At least that one had some spectacularly bad moments and you do wonder what stupid edition it might throw at you next. Also, I hate to say this, but native americans in the original, as outdated as they were protrayed back then, looked more colorful, lively and fun to hang out with.
If you want a Peter Pan live action film, Animat recommends the 2003 film. I recommend Hook starring Robin Williams and Dustin Hoffman. But if you want a spectularly bad Peter Pan film instead of a dull and boring one, try peaking at the 2015 one.
Fox's Peter Pan and the Pirates Series is my favorite adaption of Peter Pan.....the Best....in my opinion. Maybe because I was 10 when it came out and I grew up with it
Disney will never admit their live remakes suck harder than a Hoover. They'd rather double down and call us "istaphobes" for rightfully calling them out.
Want to kill a couple of hours watching a good Peter Pan adaptation?
Watch "Fox's Peter Pan and the Pirates".
Oh course it's bad, all remakes lost our respect after Mulan. Won't be surprised if Little Mermaid bombs too. God, it's like Disney wants to die after 100 years.
9:23 - 9:39 Wow! How stupid and pathetic that Pete's parents gets killed over a car crash by a running deer 🦌 and Pete some how survived? What the F#$%? There is no way a little kid can survived that car crash.
I felt the same way how stupidly DreamWorks killed off Lucky's mother 👩🏻 in Spirit Untamed. Unlike most animated films like Bambi or Lion King, they killed off the parents in intense but dark emotional way but here on the other hand they killed off Lucky's mother in such a stupid pathetic lazy way. Seriously how did Lucky's mother 👩🏻 gets killed by that leap horse 🐎 jump in the circus 🎪 act and yet her daughter Lucky did the same thing by doing a leap act with Spirit and she came out okay just because she is the main protagonist?! That's lazy 😴 writing ✍️🏻 in general. 🥱😒😏 Wow, I totally didn't see that coming. Sarcasm.
And once again, it’s sole purpose is for the cliche of having a dead mom, which we have never seen before. (many, many, Many, MANY times!) 🤦♂️
@Hunter O'Laughlin Tell me about it. The cliche dead mother 👩🏻 trope is such a cliche Hollywood trend in animation. At least Bambi's mother, Littlefoot's mother, Tod's mother and Mufasa's deaths did make me cry. 😢 DreamWorks did a better job handling dead parent deaths like Po's mother 👩🏻 from Kung Fu Panda 2 and Stoick's death from HTTYD 2 make me cry better. This one didn't. It failed. It failed so much.
Plus, that is ridiculous that Lucky somehow survived through that horse 🐎 leap in the climax just like she copy her mother. Come on, there is no way a little girl that age and size can survived from the leap in real life. She could've died too. 😪 🤦🏻
5:34 In my opinion I think diversity is good when it's done with original characters and not race swapping already existing ones. It comes across as very half assed to me, as if Disney can't be bothered to consistently make original new characters that have different races so they just take white characters and change them because it's easier and they won't receive nearly as much backlash compared to if they did the same in vice versa. I just find it unfortunate that this is starting to become a more widespread trend now with other companies such as Netflix and Discovery Warner Bros doing it now as well it's as if history is repeating itself.
Asha in the upcoming Wish is the exception, though.
@@danielsvetlichny5721 I did say "Disney doesn't want to put in the effort to make original diverse characters consistently" as in Disney still makes new characters that are diverse but only some times not all the time.
