Hook: Difference between revisions

** "...never doing anything with me."

* [[And You Were There]]: As a likely [[Shout-Out]] to the original play's invocation of this trope, the trash sweeper at the end is also played by Bob Hoskins. A subtle joke early on is that the ''captain'''s voice on the plane to England is Dustin Hoffman's, and it's the same voice he uses for Hook.

* [[Antagonist Title]]

* [[Bamboo Technology]]: Including armour, which is not unlike wooden armour used by Samurai.

* [[Big No]]: {{spoiler|Peter, when Rufio is killed.}}

* [[Big "Shut Up!"]]: Combined with [[Kick the Dog]].

* [[Bloodless Carnage]]: For all the swordplay, there isn't much blood, not even {{spoiler|when Rufio is killed.}} However, there's visible blood during the Pan-Hook duel.

* [[The Cameo]]: Several.

* [[Cutting the Electronic Leash]]: Moira throws Peter's cell phone out the window early on; Nana buries it. At the end, Peter retrieves it but subsequently throws it away himself.

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Hook, on the few occasions he isn't being a [[Large Ham]]

'''Hook:''' [[You Keep Using That Word|I think you mean an epiphany.]]<br />

'''Smee:''' Lightning has just struck me brain!<br />

* [[Distressed Damsel]]: Maggie winds up serving as this; justified in that she's too young and small to help herself.

* [[Driven to Suicide]]: Having no nemesis since Peter's departure, Hook regularly contemplates and attempts suicide out of boredom with life, leaving it to Smee to stop him every time.

'''Hook:''' This is it. My finger's on the trigger. Don't try to stop me this time, Smee! ''Don't'' try to stop me this time, Smee! Don't you ''dare'' try to stop me this time, Smee try to stop me. }}

* [[Easy Amnesia]]: Hooboy, Jack had this in spades. Justified in that as Maggie says so aptly, "Neverland makes you forget."

* [[Flash Back]]: To Peter's life as Pan, from originally choosing not to grow up to the moment he decided to do so after all, once he regains his memory.

* [[Evil Lawyer Joke]]

'''Peter Banning''': I'm not ''that'' kind of lawyer! }}

* [[Flat Earth Atheist]]: Peter at first. He tells a fairy he doesn't believe in fairies, ''to her face,'' for crying out loud!

* [[This Is What the Building Will Look Like]]: Aside from the future tense, we just see the building of the hospital built thanks to Wendy.

* [[Throwing Down the Gauntlet]]: Hook to Peter when he tries to leave with his kids without finishing the fight.

'''Hook''': Just you. }}

* [[Totally Radical]]: These Lost Boys ride skateboards, play basketball in a makeshift court with (Neverland-specific) graffiti on the walls, etc. They also usually refer to Peter Pan as "The Pan" -- even "Pan the Man" at one point. This was a ''major'' complaint in negative reviews of the film.

* [[When You Coming Home, Dad?]]: Jack is so bitter about his dad missing baseball games, not letting him jump on his bed, etc. that Hook doesn't have much trouble convincing him to turn to the bad guys' side.

* [[Who Wants to Live Forever?]]: Invoked during Pan and Hook's final duel.

'''Hook:''' Death is the only adventure you have left. }}

* [[Worthy Opponent]]: Peter in Hook's eyes. Obsessively so, to the extent that Hook even attempts suicide when faced with the possibility that they won't be able to do battle again.
