History YMMV / PeterPan

* DirtyCoward: Hook.

* DarkerAndEdgier: Than the Disney version, at least.

* MsFanservice: Tinkerbell, to the point where there used to be rumors that she was based off Marilyn Monroe.

* FoeYay: The film turns this UpToEleven between Hook and Peter.

* InNameOnly: The characters of Peter Pan and Captain Hook in the Disney movie are ''nothing'' like their counterparts in the book.
* LargeHam: Hans Conried, the voice of Captain Hook, was clearly having a blast while recording his lines.
--> '''''[+++ "[[SayMyName SMEEEEEEE!!!!]]" +++]'''''

* ChaoticNeutral: Peter Pan's original personality is best described as this. He does both good and bad things only because he's too innocent to know right from wrong. Most adaptations have him lean closer to ChaoticGood.

* CrowningMusicOfAwesome: Well, the music ''was'' after all, composed by [[BatmanBegins James]] [[KingKong Newton]] [[TheDarkKnight Howard]]. So awesome that Disney stole it for use in their Disneyland commercials.

* FoeYay: The film turns this UpToEleven between Hook and Peter
* {{Narm}}: "Pan--you're pink!" [[YourMileageMayVary YMMV]] on whether or not this is {{Narm}} or NarmCharm.
* NightmareFuel: The more monstrous portrayal of the mermaids and the only one to date to actually show ''the stump of Hook's severed arm''.

* UnfortunateImplications: The racism in J.M. Barrie's book is awkward enough today, but Disney arguably takes it UpToEleven. One of the most glaring examples are the juxtaposition of teepees and totem poles - these belonged to two completely different cultures, and are as awkward and unrealistic as the Eiffel tower in Moscow. The song ''What Makes the Red Man Red'' also implies that the "red man" used to be white (Eurocentricism/Anglocentrism).

** [[EvilIsCool Hook]].

* ValuesDissonance: Watching "What Made the Red Man Red" today is incredibly uncomfortable to say the least.

!!Mainly from the novel or play:

!!Mainly from the novel or play''':

* NoYay: Wendy/Hook. Good god, Wendy/Hook. "For a moment she was entranced by him."

'''Tropes mainly from the novel or play''':
* AdaptationDisplacement: It's often forgotten that it began life as a play, before being adapted into a novel (both by JM Barrie).

* AngstWhatAngst: In everyone who goes to Neverland; in Peter himself so much it's scary.

* HellIsThatNoise - For Hook, the sound of a ticking clock is generally [[JustForPun cause for alarm]], as it almost always means the Crocodile is nearby.

* ToyShip - Peter and Wendy. Also [[{{Lolicon}} Wendy and Hook]], depending on the handling of the adaptation.

* CrowningMusicOfAwesome: Well, the music ''was'' after all, composed by [[BatmanBegins James]] [[KingKong Newton]] [[TheDarkKnight Howard]].
** So awesome that Disney stole it for use in their Disneyland commercials.

* {{Narm}}: "Pan - you're pink!"
** [[YourMileageMayVary YMMV]] on whether or not this is {{Narm}} or NarmCharm.

* NoYay: Sometimes the response to the Hook/Wendy dynamic, including from several professional reviewers. WordOfGod says they didn't realize when they were shooting just how that was going to look on film.
** Never mind that it's a pretty accurate portrayal of Wendy's attraction to Hook in the novel.

* AdaptationDisplacement - It's often forgotten that it began life as a play, before being adapted into a novel (both by JM Barrie).

* HellIsThatNoise - For Hook, the sound of a ticking clock is generally [[IncrediblyLamePun cause for alarm]], as it almost always means the Crocodile is nearby.

* AdaptationDecay: The characters of Peter Pan and Captain Hook in the Disney movie are ''nothing'' like their counterparts in the book, and the movie calls the fairies "pixies" for no apparent reason (because of the "pixie dust", perhaps?).

----

* HilariousInHindsight: The first words in the film (by an unnamed narrator) are [[ BattlestarGalactica "All this has happened before...and it will happen again."]]

* {{Narm}}: "He's turning pink!"

* HellIsThatNoise - For Hook, the sound of a ticking clock is generally [[StealthPun cause for alarm]], as it almost always means the Crocodile is nearby.
