I'm definitely looking forward to this film. Especially because I'm a bit of a Barrie buff. I've been collecting various versions of Peter Pan and do a bit of research about Barrie and Peter Pan.

Plus I'm happy and looking forward to Johnny Depp and Kate Wisnlet. I quite like Kate. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

One thing I will not be able to abide by is if they massacre Barrie's character like all those literary critics who speculate all sorts of rubbish about him.

Yes Gail -- if they axe James through film, then we axe them savvy? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

I like Kate too; she's very talented, and quite a looker. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Kate is very talented. She and Johnny would probably play off of each other well.

I'm interested to see Barrie's interaction with the children. I know Barrie loved kids and adopted quite a few of his own. I'd love to see how his relationship with children is developed throughout the course of the film.

I'm soo waiting up for this one, it's just that Barrie's Peter Pan is just a great book, and I would love to see his insperation for writeing it. How he got these characters and you know, just why for everything. I can't wait to see this, I'm sure it'll be great.

I agree, Kate is quite a great actress, I'd really want to see the chemistry with her and Johnny. See how well they work together, I'm sure they are great.

Huh, never knew any of that. Now I'm looking forward to seeing if and how they portray it. Not to mention that JD has rarely made films where he interacts with kids, which will also be interesting to see.

Like I said, I'm a bit of a Barrie buff. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] I could go on and on. But I'll spare you guys. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

It would be interesting to see how Johnny interacts with kids. Especially in this film, as I am predicting (or hoping) that the children will play a vital role as they did in Barrie's own life. Johnny has interacted with children in his other films but only fleetingly and not to the extent that I am expecting from this film.

Spare us? C'mon, as if we could ever get enough of anything related to JD. Anything in particular you're looking forward to in the movie, or tidbits about Barrie you'd like to share? Besides the children thing, of course.

... please?? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Oh I've been waiting for this film for a long time! Peter Pan is probably my favorite children's story (though for some reason I didn't like the Disney animated movie version... [img]smilies/mad.gif[/img] ) I am also looking forward to seeing Johnny and the kids, and him and Kate's chemistry. I think Kate's a spectacular actress. Wonderfull person, too. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] I am anticipating this movie very much.
[img]smilies/clap.gif[/img]

And may I add, again, he pulls off period clothing so well. He looks so handsome and proper, but still playful. [img]smilies/sigh.gif[/img]

This movie looks really good. I think Kate Winslet is a really talented actress, and Johnny looks great in those pictures with short hair and that suit....and I can't wait to see the scenes where they're with the kids, it looks so cute! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
