Goofs:

Revealing mistakes: When Fairy Mary uses the abacus, she does so in entirely the wrong way, as she holds it with the wires running vertically, rather than horizontally. Despite this, the counters never seem to fall down. In addition, sometimes the abacus correctly has two sections but sometimes it only has one.

Quotes:

Iridessa:Be careful, Rosetta, she may faint! Elevate her legs! No, wait! I mean the head! Wait, okay, if she's red, raise the head, if she's pale, raise the tail. Does she look pale or red?
Rosetta:...She looks squished.

I really like Tinker Bell now

I was never a fan of Peter Pan and I certainly didn't like Tinker Bell in that movie. However I do like fairies and was curious to see what they would do with a movie of Tinker Bell living her life in Pixie Hollow with the other fairies. At first I thought the digital graphics would bother me as I was used to the more classic Tinker Bell animation. This not only improved the whole magical atmosphere surrounding these fairy woods, it made it also into a highly entertaining movie. Right from the start you are drawn into an interesting story with a morale. Next to Tinker Bell's story we learn about the different kind of fairies, their abilities and duties, which came in really handy for me a storywriter. I was also glad to hear that this movie will have sequels which will probably end at the moment she meets up with Peter Pan. I liked Tinker Bell without Peter and the lost boys. This is now one of my favorite Disney movies. It's maybe not perfect as I would have hoped to get to know the other fairies better too, but I guess the sequels will work on that. Still a big 9!
