Nitpicking Peter Pan – Peter Broke Big Ben

Nitpicking Peter Pan
They Broke Big Ben

Before anyone from the Guild reprimands me for incorrectly referring to the Great Clock at Westminster by the name of it’s largest bell, I do know the difference. “Big Ben” fit on the line. “The Great Clock at Westminster” did not and few Americans know it by any name other than Big Ben.

I LOVE finding nits like this in animation. Unlike live action nits that can occur naturally and unintentionally, animations nits are deliberately included in the film. So whatever Disney artist was responsible for this nit, it leaves us to conclude that Peter, Wendy, Michael, and John broke The Great Clock at Westminster.
