PETER PAN flies again as television musical. — Page 2

Kristin Chenoweth is too old and her boobs are too big. She could play a brilliant Tinker Bell though.

How could it be more sexual than it was with lesbian Mary Martin? Just look at how she gazes at Wendy on that video.

I'm not saying a boy wouldn't be believable in general. I'm saying the score wouldn't fit a boy singing it. It's not a style a boy would sing - at least not Peter Pan. It's complicated...I'm not elaborating cause it'd take too long and I don't have the time..

I've seen the statue in Weatherford Texas. I love Mary.

Michale is Patsy in Spamalot.

I don't know who the hell Patsy is either.

I love Mary too, but I've never been to Weatherford.

I've heard the recording, and I love the movie, but I've never seen the show.

The recording, in my umble opinion, is pretty effing annoying.

I've always been weirded out by Mary Martin. I hope they cast a male in this. I wonder if Jacko's calendar is free? If they do stick to a girl, it will be Haily Duff or one of those Amanda Byne types.

If this is anything like the other garbage ABC has given us, no one will watch and it just do a disservice to movie musicals. What really sucks is television is the only place they can be produced anymore.

I am all for Bryce Dallas Howard as Peter. I think she'd be awesome. As for Hook, even Cerveris could play the role (he's so over-the-top already, anyway)...but I'd rather see someone else. How about Rupert Everett?

Terrence Mann for Captain Hook!

Cathy Rigby has already played Peter Pan on television. She is an old woman. She is not going to headline a tv movie adaptation for ABC.

I have waited a LONG LONG time for this, as has CapnHook! Peter Pan was my first show as a child and I have never looked back. Seeing cathy's final NYC perfomance last winter came full circle for me, as I am now in NYC persuing the dream that seeing tehs how for the first time gave me. I bawled like a little baby.

My hopes for this are high and my opinions are strong. Strip away the decades of camp and cheese and panto tradition. return to the Barrie intent and give this an edge. I hope they don't mean LITERAL modernization.. I hope they were more refering to giving the score a fresher sound and giving the show better structure.

Peter needs to be played by a male.. teens-early 20s. Go with an unknown for the role.. me, Vince Rimoldi or Michael Longoria perhaps. NO Tights! No little boy runs away from home and kills pirates and indians and wears tights.

Tim Curry or Hugh jackman as Captain Hook.

JESSICA GROVE as Wendy.

My mind is reeling. When are these auditions? I will be there with bells and harness on...

Paul Rubin needs to do this.... he can fly Peter like no one's business.
