An article about Peter Pan from The Guardian, posted today:

They say it's the best Peter Pan movie, and I agree!

I made the observation that other version did just as badly on release but this is the version I like. It has charm, wit and is an utter joy. How this was finished in such trying circumstances is a miricle and it is always shown in the UK during the holidays. A lovely treat and Jason should be very proud of it.

His portrayal was really good for both Hook and Mr. Darling. I also liked the gal who played Wendy but was not so jazzed about the guy who played Peter Pan. I got to meet one of the St Bernards that played Nana at the premier in London. Was pretty excited about that kiss!

That kiss?.

That kiss?.

LOL - Nana doggy kiss!!!!

But I did meet and got to talk to Jason at the Premiere after party. I believe the entire cast was there.

Wow oh that have been something, oh to have have the chance to get close to Jason. Oh now I understand what was meant by the kiss.

Peter Pan will probably show up over the holidays and seeing the recent article about Jason's work I have to say that Peter Pan is a masterpiece that has aged really well. I think a couple of things were resposible for the lack of box office. I gather the movie went way over budget and i wonder if this was responsible for the marketing budget being cut. I cannot recall the movie being out at the time and so I suspect that they did not do many tv ads. Wasn't Brad Pitt supposed to play the lead?. For the life of me I cannot imagine that movie with him in the role. I think Jason did a great job creating a magical role (part of me wanted Hook to win). Interesting that Jason did Potter and Pan so close together but the characters although baddies are so utterly different.

A little gem.

I remember when the film came out there was a cardboard stand-up Hook about three-quarter life size in my local library. I believe one of the Jason fans who posted on one of the fan sites acquired one of the cardboard Hooks after the venue had finished with it.

Now that sounds like fun.
