1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,140 This is MJ Munoz coming back for another chapter by chapter discussion of Peter Pan Simon chapter 4 2 00:00:07,860 --> 00:00:13,020 And what does he want to talk about? Oh, yeah, Captain Hook. Captain Hook has like awesome literary 3 00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:17,300 Lineage and he also gets to job 4 00:00:18,340 --> 00:00:24,140 Long John Silver from Treasure Island as well as Blackbeard the real existing pirate 5 00:00:24,140 --> 00:00:30,620 And what I mean by that is they make Captain Hook sound scarier and cooler by saying that he was the only 6 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:37,660 pirate or guy to stand up to Blackbeard the pirate and like he took no guff from Long John Silver or barbecue and 7 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,080 If you've read Treasure Island 8 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:47,320 Long John Silver is one tough customer and hearing that Captain Hook went toe-to-toe to him or with him a literary figure and also 9 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:53,040 Blackbeard the pirate a real historical pirate. That's pretty scary impressive and that's that's pretty cool 10 00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:57,080 I really like that. I think that's a little stroke of genius from mr. Berry there 11 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:06,440 Totally, that's a really cool thing to do and I think it's pretty neat that Berry did that like I said before 12 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:08,440 I don't have to pick myself up too much 13 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:18,120 But it's also interesting because Peter Pan is very happy that Captain Hook is such a deadly enemy and he 14 00:01:19,320 --> 00:01:21,320 much because 15 00:01:21,320 --> 00:01:25,640 John that all his men under him is a captain 16 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,640 Captain Peter 17 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:31,080 Have to swear to him one thing and John is shocked surprised 18 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:36,680 He's nervous about it and he says that if we were going to all-out war one on one with Captain Hook 19 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,240 that you can't kill him you need to let me kill him and 20 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:46,880 That's funny that's cool and it's kind of interesting take and an interesting 21 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:51,280 what I'm going to say is it's an interesting moment of characterization for Peter and 22 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:58,900 It kind of muddies things because it's hard to tell well when children play 23 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:04,480 It's hard to tell what's facts and what's fiction. Often times in my house. We will say oh 24 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:10,280 You know my wife and I will hear someone call mom or dad and we what is it? What's going on? 25 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:15,400 What about you were playing? It's the end. Oh, okay great. It's mom and dad in the end. Not us other people 26 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,520 or some other people so much to hurt or they're 27 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:25,720 Angry and it turns out it's not actually real they're just playing and you don't know that and 28 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,440 sometimes even the thing they don't know that and 29 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,320 One instance of that is this relates to the 30 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:40,880 Peter says that there's a pirate stick somewhere as a kid to find him. There's a pirate asleep somewhere 31 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,400 I need to pardon on Indian anyway, he's asleep and 32 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:44,900 um 33 00:02:44,900 --> 00:02:54,400 will the boys to this hacienda 34 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,160 Touch all of them 35 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:14,160 So I wake him up first to make sure he's awake or have a fair test of height in me, and then I kill him. 36 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:19,160 And I think that's pretend, but then again it might not be. 37 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:24,160 Like he literally cut off the crocodile. 38 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,160 So why would he actually kill this man? 39 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:36,160 And I mean it's absurd, but it's also, I don't know, it's a fantastical because it's plain, it's funny, and it's funny. 40 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:47,160 And I don't know, it's a really interesting, like a look into the child's mind and the imagination in this book. 41 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:58,160 And it's just, like I find it so remarkable because it's, I don't know, some of it makes me uncomfortable honestly because of how raw and real it is. 42 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:06,160 But it's all tempered by the fact that it's all imagination and play, but the Neverland is real. 43 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:13,160 They only get to Neverland because this is also, I'm talking about from Chapter 4, the, it's not called the Scythe Guru, it's called the Scythe. 44 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:22,160 Anyway, the Neverland wants to find them. That's why they are able to get to the Neverland because it wants, comes to them basically. 45 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,160 Which is a really interesting concept of what does that mean? 46 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:33,160 Earlier in another chapter, 2 or so, Barry describes how everybody's Neverland is distinct and it's tailored to each child, 47 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:38,160 but unless we've gone near sleep and you've dreamed of it, I guess, you know, we remind those two. 48 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:44,160 And the darlings, well the three of them all have different things in their Neverland, and when they go to Peter's Neverland, 49 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:50,160 all three of them have aspects of their Neverland brought to life. They're in that reality. 50 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:55,160 And even in that earlier chapter, it references the different Neverlands. It talks about them all. 51 00:04:55,160 --> 00:05:01,160 When you stood next to each other, you'd say, oh that one, I can see that one has his nose or he has his eyes or he has his chin or whatever. 52 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:06,160 So, like, it sounds like, talking about the collective unconscious, how old is that concept? 53 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:17,160 Did it predate Barry's writing of this book in academia or was that concept partially formed by people thinking about things and imagining things 54 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:23,160 and they were quite put to it that it was the collective unconscious? I don't know, and I don't know, 55 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:30,160 but it's something very exciting to think about and to ponder, and I know it makes me look all the more fascinating to think that, like, 56 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:37,160 the subliminally talking about these psychological concepts. And I know collective unconscious is kind of just a hook-and-loop thing, 57 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:45,160 but I don't know, I think there's some validity to it. But either way, as a story-wise, it's fantastic and amazing and really cool. 58 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:53,160 And I think it's been linked to that in the chapter, which is kind of wild. But also, you know, iron-tiding, very cool. 59 00:05:53,160 --> 00:06:02,160 So, that's the story for now. I will have a full review of Peter Pan going on for description. 60 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:10,160 It'll probably be out before I finish with the series because of the way things are timed out, but anyway, you can find that at nvwunius.com. 61 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:15,160 You can find all these that have strung together, basically, at nvwunius.com as well.
