Peter Pan (1953)

Corrected entry: At the end of the film when the "Lost Boys" man the capstan there are four bars on the capstan, however only three boys man the bars, but as the bar turns with the boys pushing it there is no empty bar.

Correction: Just as the boys are about to begin walking around the capstan, we see the four bars manned by Cubby (the bear), Slightly (the fox), the Twins (the raccoons), and Tootles (the skunk), but just as Pan shouts to hoist the anchor, Cubby gets knocked in the head, falls down, and is stepped on as the capstan begins turning. It's at that moment we see Nibs (the rabbit) rush in at the left side of the screen to man the empty fourth bar which belonged to Cubby.

Peter Pan (1953)

Corrected entry: When the boys and Wendy are tied up on the ship, you can see Wendy is with them. In the next two shots when you see them Wendy has disappeared, but in the next shot she's there again.

Correction: Wendy doesn't disappear. Wendy, her brothers, and the Lost Boys are all tied to the large mast, and due to its cylindrical shape in some shots we don't see Wendy and Nibs at the right, or Cubby and one of the Twins at the left.

Peter Pan (1953)

Corrected entry: During the song 'You Can Fly! You Can Fly! You Can Fly!', when Peter Pan, Wendy, John, and Michael land on the big hand of Big Ben, the bell rings 4 times, although the hour hand is on the 3.

Correction: The short "hour" hand is actually at the eight when they land on the long minute hand, which then moves toward the three, and what you're hearing are the four quarter bells that each chime in sequence at every quarter of the hour, so four chimes are correctly heard.

When you were correcting me about the hand Peter Pan and the Darling children were on, I wanted to thank you when you told me about the hour hand. (I have to work on learning the time and some other math stuff, which even includes money and so on).

You are very sweet for thanking me! There are many people who can't exactly tell the time on analog clocks, because digital is so common now. When I was teaching that was one of the things I focused on. I even used an analog clock that ran backwards together with the regular analog clock to help strengthen their skills. Kids had fun with it. I want to thank you for taking the time to reply here, and I want to wish you much success in all your journeys. :-).
