Ok, I have caught parts of 'Hook', not 'Hoot' on TBS over this Easter weekend. I know Jimmy has credit for being a pirate in this movie, but I have yet to find him. Granted, I have not watched the movie entirely but I was wondering at what point he appears. If anyone knows, it would be much appreciated. Thanks and Happy Easter!

"One of the pirates who attempts to steal Peter's shoes when he first arrives in Neverland is played by singer Jimmy Buffett."

I got this from the international movie data base. Hope this helps!

He's also in Congo. I believe as a pilot although I've never looked for him.

I think you see his arm out the window of the plane cockpit, but don't know if he has any screen time. Not so bad, considering the book was much better than the movie.

Yes he does have 20-30 seconds of screen time. I re-rented the movie a year back just to check this out

I think it's one of those "if you blink you'll miss it" things like his role as the "Blonde Agent" in Repo Man.

In Congo he is clearly shown as the pilot and even has a couple of lines (thank you SAG card).

The coolest thing about that roll is that even though no one in the film is called "Jimmy" the DVD chapter that starts with that scene is called "Jimmy's Flight" How cool is that? Must be a Parrothead on that production crew!
