#fox's captain hook

How come no one in any of the Peter Pan adaptations calls the crocodile "The Clockodile"???

Missed opportunity

I forgot just how metal Fox's Peter Pan and the Pirates got. There's a scene where Peter has caught Captain Hook in a trap, tied him to a tree and is winding up to kill him, firing sharpened branches at him, and Hook grins and says this:

'If I must die, I will encounter darkness as a bride and hug it in my arms. For I, at least, have lived a full life, Peter Pan! I have been a child, I have been a youth, I have been a man, a scholar and a gentleman! I have sailed the world in the finest navy ever to set sun, sky or moon sail. In short, I have lived a full life. Whereas you are a pathetic creature, forever locked in the self-serving egocentricities of childhood. You will never be a youth, and you will never be a man! So, finish me now and be done with it!'

Hook, by the by, is voiced by Tim Curry.

Metal.

I don't remember drawing James from the past. I decided to review the series "After the laughter" and then made a sketch...

Alright, I’m curious… For my fellow fans of the traditional Captain Hook (not OUAT’s Killian), what was it about the character that initially drew you in? Which version first caught your attention? At what point did you look at him and go, “Okay, yup, adding this guy to my list of favs”?

For me, it was when I first watched the Disney film around age 12. In particular, I think it was the scene following the events at Skull Rock when Hook is sick in his cabin that really got to me. We don’t often see scenes in the earlier hand-drawn Disney films that show the villain in a sympathetic light. But Hook? In that moment, he was very broken, very human. And I was intrigued. I read Barrie’s novel shortly thereafter and found that the original character was also interesting and complex. Before long, I was checking out any new form of Peter Pan media I could get my hands on…and the rest is history!

On one starry night in Pennsylvania, Maddie Buckley and her brother Daniel, met a boy who brought them on the most marvelous adventures. With just a bit of faerie dust and happy thoughts, they fly out of their bedroom following the little boy called Buck.

The three of them go on grand adventures from mermaids to pirates, flying to swimming. The magical young Buck is fearless and happy to find these friends hoping they’d stay with him forever.

The dream doesn’t last - there’s no mistaking the rattling cough that shakes Daniel’s body and the concerned furrow of Maddie’s brow.

Daniel needs help that he can’t get in Neverland.

In the days and weeks following their adventure in Neverland, Buck periodically visits his new friends.

Until one day, there was only Maddie.

Being an ever loyal friend to the Buckley children, Buck decides to keep a close eye on Maddie through her heartbreak.

A month after Daniel’s death, Buck discovers that he can no longer fly without Tink’s help.

Two months after, the boy who never wanted to grow up decides he must … for the boy who never got the chance.

Or;

Buck is Peter Pan AU - he’s not actually Maddie’s brother but they’ve been so close since Daniel’s death, they might as well be. Buck still goes on his travels and it’s less about running away and more about discovering everything he stopped himself from wanting. He still writes postcards to Maddie about his adventures; Maddie still marries Doug; they both still end up in LA; Buck still is fired and rehired by Bobby - after so many years of being a boy it takes him a hot minute for adulthood and maturity to sink in

The only difference really is that Buck has more fantastical stories to tell Christopher and Jee-Yun. He’s a bit more fearless and that much more brave.

Sometimes he’ll think of about Tink and the rest at pixie hollow, wonder how the mermaids are doing, imagine the taste of the feasts he’d have in Neverland. But then he’ll look around at a gathering at Bobby’s with the 118 and be so grateful for the life that he’s been given.

Peter Pan quotes for inspiration under the cut ;)

“Never say goodbye because goodbye means going away and going away means forgetting.”

“All children, except one, grow up.”

"To die will be an awfully big adventure.”

I planned to draw something small for this day, but a Drawn Together frame inspired me. I also wanted to draw my boys before finishing the year!

This year it had his it and low, but I hope to improve that in 2024! Meanwhile, I wish you a happy New Year's party and a wonderful next year!

Before the fell ship came to dock/Before the first tick of a clock/Before the gloom of island night/Before a boy first leant his ear/To grown-up words that stirred a fear/And made him vow to age no more/There was another land... Before

Me: Prefers serious versions of Hook

Also me: Fully accepts "Oh My Mysterious Lady" from the Mary Martin version of Peter Pan as a canon depiction of how Hook would react to finding a lady in Neverland. Proceeds to apply this to every version of Captain Hook.

🧚🏼‍♀️ Would Tinker Bell from Disney’s “Peter Pan” and Crysta from “FernGully: The Last Rainforest” be rivals or friends? ✨
