We already had a pretty dark modern live-action remake of Pan. The nieces love it; not sure they've ever even seen Pan53.

Still that was 10+ years ago, so...
The synopsis for the Pan prequel sounds trite as hell:
Quote from: 12-year-old orphan Peter is spirited away to the magical world of Neverland, where he finds both fun and dangers, and ultimately discovers his destiny -- to become the hero who will be forever known as Peter Pan.
Now that I read it, I remember that I already knew this was coming and had promptly forgotten its existence. :P
