Ultimate fate of Captain Hook in 1991's Hook movie?
In the 1991 movie Hook (starring Robin Williams), what was the ultimate fate of Captain Hook? I know he was swallowed by the stuffed crocodile, but still, this was just a stuffed crocodile. It didn't have a working digestive system. And, I mean, sure, the crocodile "burped", but still... Just saying.
Normally, I would just chalk up this inconsistency to the writers, but I'm curious: is there perhaps any canon-based possible explanation? Maybe some of the magic exhibited by the children in Neverland did something?
Is it just the writers or am I on to something here? Just wondering what your thoughts might be on this.
Best Answer
The ultimate fate of Hook is that he dies at the hands, or rather the jaws, of the crocodile, when it eats him, as per the original canon. There's no exposition offered as to why the crocodile awakens, but clearly it was still alive, in a magical coma. Like Sleeping Beauty.

Answer 2
He was crushed by the crocodile. How else could he have died? If it did not have a working digestive system, then Hook could have crawled out. It clearly crushes him, otherwise he would have been able to get out.
