Current Events > Disney's Peter Pan could've been a lot more racist.

(+) Yeah! (+)

On the map is listed Cannibal Cove with the image of an African tribal warrior beside it. Given the film's depiction of Native Americans, I don't imagine good things would have come of visiting that cove.

Well Peter Pan is an A-hole...so I wouldn't really be surprised if he was a racist on top of that.

Can't believe that movie never got the Song of the South treatment.

Peter Pan is one of my least favorites Disney movies.
But I kind of liked Neverland in the KH games, so it's not a total waste.

The mermaids were far prettier than Ariel

Nobody's prettier than Ariel, but those mermaids were stellar. Between them, Tinkerbell, and the (adult) Indian woman, it seems a cruel joke to make Neverland a place where only kids can visit.

"We've got an island full of hot women, but you can't go there if you've hit puberty." :v

Just watch the movie or don't, stop finding trivial things to cry about.

It's actually worse than Song of the South when it comes to racial insensitivity. "What makes the red man red?" seems like a song that should be from the 1930s, not the '50s. And it was really passed the time when you could exaggerate a person's ethnic features to such a degree.

I'm not "offended" by the song, but it is kind of embarrassing to watch. (Although, like the Siamese cat song, it's very catchy when taken at face value.)

Sometimes Ariel looks good and other times... eeehh.

Ursula in her Vanessa form was better looking

Yeah, PP is boring. You'll definitely catch me yawning a few times when I watch that snoozefest.

I prefer the live action movie Hook to the old cartoon

The hook scenes are great, especially when he fights pan at skull rock and the croc shows up. The voice actor for hook was top notch.
