| Point is that nobody would have the courage to ask if Peter Pan and Bat out of Hell would make a good mix. That is the point I am making. It sounds weird and yeah there might be teenage rebellion in it but all I am seeing is what I know of Peter Pan, i.e some very young children flying in the sky with Peter Pan and some adventures they have. How the hell you are going to convince more cynical people than myself to buy into this theme is bewildering. You can't re-educate people - the theme has to hang together on its own merits or you will end up fighting against a much bigger concept that has many different meanings for many different people depending on how much or how little they know about Peter Pan. BOOH stood up as a unique piece of work, it doesn't need Peter Pan and great it was maybe Jim's inspiration but leave it as that. > > Mixing Peter Pan with Bat out of Hell is really not > > cutting it with me - no wonder nobody is talking about it > > apart from the producers son who is lost in that world.
