This week's Thursday Movie Picks is Secret Doorways / Worlds
---
Harry Potter (2001-2011)
I enjoy the Harry Potter movies and Platform 9 3/4 at King's Cross Station is the doorway to the secret platform from which Hogwarts students take a train to their school.
Peter Pan (2003)
Stardust (2007)
I thought this would be a fun theme full of magic with secret doorways leading to a secret worlds. Here are my three favourites:
Harry Potter (2001-2011)

Peter Pan (2003)
I suppose "second star to the right" is the doorway here, but it's Peter who serves as a key and guide who teaches the Darling children to fly and brings them to Neverland. I love this movie, it is so magical.
Stardust (2007)
A breach in a wall bordering an English village is the doorway to a magical kingdom of Stormhold where a star has just fallen and four remaining princes have to survive each other for the right to rule the land. I absolutely love this one. It is so charming, full of magic and funny as well.

Hey, this is such a great topic for the time we're in now... in dire need of escapism! I totally forgot about Stardust! Now you made me want to watch it. We do have one movie in common ::-)
ReplyDeleteThanks. I came up with the theme way before the outbreak of course.
DeleteI really like that version of Peter Pan. I think it's super underrated.
ReplyDeleteYes I feel it is underwatched too which is such a pity since it is a gem
DeleteAll great picks! I think, this is the first time that I've actually seen all the movies you mention.
ReplyDeleteAh, Stardust!!! It's a true gem I think!
ReplyDeleteWe match with Harry Potter which will be popular this week. I enjoyed this Peter Pan even though it is not my favourite story. I have not seen Stardust but would like to. I remember the trailers for it and was surprised Robert DeNiro was in it
