I know everyone on this board has been brainwashed by Disney, but even this multi-media giant cant change the simple truth that Peter Pan is the real villain and Captain Hook the hero. It makes for a better story (and easier to sell merchandise) if we loathe the pirate, and cheer for the fun loving boy. However, dont be fooled by Disneys biased interpretation of the facts.
Hear me out.
As the story begins, we know very little about the history between the little green menace, and the good Captain. What we do know is that Peter once chopped off Hooks hand and fed it to the crocodile. Even Disneys one-sided story telling doesnt provide a justification for this horrific act. And what justification can there be? At this point, Hook doesnt know where Peter lives, and Peter can fly. Consequently, if there was a confrontation, it had to be initiated by Peter. The good Captain is incapable of hunting down the flying Peter Pan and threatening him in any fashion. The only conclusion to be made is that Peter sought out the Captain, picked a fight, and chopped Hooks hand off.
Peter Pan is guilty of: Assault with a Deadly Weapon
Next what does Peter do? He feeds the Captains hand to the crocodile, so the crocodile will forever chase and try to kill Hook.
Peter Pan is guilty of: Conspiracy to commit murder. (Conspiring with the crocodile)
Now as the story begins, Peter waits for Mr. and Mrs. Darling to leave the house, and then takes 3 children from their beds to a far off land. Dont be fooled. Disney spins this set of facts so it doesnt look criminal. While Neverland may be a cool place to go, Peter has no right.
Peter Pan is guilty of: Kidnapping 3 counts.
While on his way to Neverland, Peter leaves Wendy, Michael and John in the care of Tinkerbell, and instructs her to take the kids to the island. Of course Tink tries to have the Lost Boys kill the kids and almost succeeds. First, if Tinkerbell is your friend, you are guilty by association. Second, leaving the kids in Tinkerbells care is nuts.
Peter Pan is guilty of: Endangering the welfare of a minor. 3 counts
Now I know some of the things Hook does next dont look so good. But the man had his hand chopped off. What is he supposed to do? Theres no police station on Neverland. The mermaids arent going to help him get justice. Someone has to stop this one man crime spree. Does the Captain go a little too far in his attempts stop Pan? Perhaps, but someone has to hold the flying felon accountable.
So the story ends with Peter Pan throwing Hook overboard to be eaten by the crocodile.
Peter Pan is guilty of: Attempted Murder
Peter then steals the Captains ship. There is no justification for this. He and Tink can make all the kids fly if they wished. But no, Pan would rather steal a very valuable ship and use it as his own.
Peter Pan is guilty of: Grand theft boat
These are the facts, minus the Disney spin. Disney knows everyone wants to root for the winner, so they make Peter the lovable character. I can summarize the story in one line: Captain Hook wants justice, while Peter Pans crime spree knows no bounds. Believe what you want to believe. The truth is:
CAPTAIN HOOK IS THE HERO, AND PETER PAN IS THE VILLAIN.
(I have too much free time on my hands.)
8 Days to Disney and I am so excited. OFF TO NEVERLAND.
