"But we take only what we need, right?" "Right! We must maintain the delicate balance of the ecosystem by leaving some gold behind to ensure it can spawn and replenish the stocks for next year" "How did you guys manage to beat me again?"
You clearly don't know ANYTHING about nature. Gold is an important currency for animals in the forest in the same way that Diamonds are important for the Jungle economy to thrive.
+Nionivek The diamonds, MAI GAWD I have forgotten them completely!!! Remember how those were somehow given to the society for endangered animals? Maybe that’s what the rest of the Gold was left for.
You know what's really sad about the random Native American spirit thing? It was still a more competent and less annoying guide for a boy lost in the snowy wilderness than the goddamn Little Angels were.
*Father dies in the snow and a big glowing Pierre Gringoire appears in the sky* “We will avenge you my friend!” *Runs off with the kid and leaves the dad’s corpse behind*
You should hear the kid in the danish dubbing of the Adventures of Sonic The Hedgehog christmas special. He sounds like someone in his 30's. I mean, I can do a better kids voice and I'm 32 for heavens sake!
ladydiskette Did I mention that Blye Migicovsky's Call of the Wild came out in *2002?* Though, it's still better than the 2000's era Golden Films animated movies like Miracle in Toyland.
AmishParadise27 (AKA: Tyler) I think that was the case for pretty much all the Blye Migicovsky animated films GoodTimes distributed. Even though the kids could barely put any emotion in their delivery...
9:12. "Buck then beats Spitz in a sled dog battle and was killed by the rest of the team for being a loser." The way that was worded made it seem like Buck was the one killed for being a loser.
This depiction of the man in the red sweater also vaguely reminds me of that one big-chinned villain from Ferngully 2, mixed with Daniel Boone from the “Frontier Slappy” Animaniacs episode, if he was also cosplaying for Barry Burton from Resident Evil.
If Jack London loved writing dog stories, Yoshihiro Takahashi must be obsessed with writing them since it’s literally what 90% of his mangas are about. XD
Yoshihiro Takahashi has literally only written about dogs for the majority of his career. And unlike Jack London's stories, most of them don't have any major human characters at all.
The only sort-of explanation I can think of is that maybe they were from lower class families/areas and are happy that a pampered dog from a rich family is now in the same boat as them and brought down to their level. It’s the only guess I got.

Dark stories can be adapted for the kids and done so while keeping close to the source material. "Wishbone" was proof of this. I mean he covered "Faust," "The Count of Monte Cristo," "Frankenstein" and "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde." If I remember correctly, they did cover the main points of the story and themes, with a lot of the humor coming from the bizarre scenarios that inspired these trips into literature and just how light hearted they felt in contrast. E.G. A teacher performs in secret at a local pizza place? Let's tell the story of Mr. Hyde. A wacky robot is on the loose? Let's tell the kids about Frankenstein.
How the feck did Wishbone cover a story about a man selling his soul to the devil? I can think of work arounds for the others where you just remove the violence and stuff, but that seems like something that would cause a huff.
Well he did it, the "real life" scenario centered around his owner being offered a VR system in return for Wishbone by a traveling salesman who wanted him to be his mascot. Really the only episode that caused a huff I remember was "Imaginary Invalid" where it was banned because parents were afraid that health warnings, allergy scares, etc. would not be taken seriously.
There's a Blye Migicovsky Productions movie of The Count of Monter Cristo. It's very sugarcoated. Dantes' assistant is an anthropomorphic cat instead of a human. But Dantes' design... He looks like if Samuel was creepy with John.
I always kind of find it funny how Native American Spirits seem to be a lot more helpful to White people then they were to the actual Native Americans. Maybe the part of history they don't tell you is that the Native Americans used to be Ancient Captain Planet Villains.
Lessons GoodTimes has taught me: Hunchbacks are magic. People with dark circles under their eyes, black hair, or bad facial hair are evil. Angels exist and can interact with our world, but only to help obnoxious white kids or save Christmas for some stupid town. Children going off into dangerous environments is perfectly fine, as is leaving them alone for long periods of time. Death is something that can easily be overcome and should not be dwelt upon when it happens. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go become the villain the dark circles under my eyes indicate I am.
This movie makes Hanna Barbera look like Disney in comparision. All those weird shapes and garish colors makes it look even worse than Dingo Pictures cartoons. At least whoever drew the Dingo pictures animations knew what color trees are.
I love how after watching Phelous for long enough, we're able to predict the running gags before they happen. I found myself saying, "It wasn't _that_ funny" before Venkman even popped up at 5:14.
Sooo, the dog is gonna rip some throats out like in the book, becoming the leader of a pack of wolves and terror of the Indians after his owner is killed? Didn’t think so.
As soon as they daid "folloe your heart" I was like "if Phelous doesn't insert the clip of Mike from Coming Out of Our Shells I will be very disappointed" I was not disappointed
My theory is that the spirit that appeared to John, was actually a hallucination after he was killed on a cliff and the rest of the movie is his dying dream, as he dies in the snow... SO NO-ONE TOLD YOU LIFE WAS GONNA BE THIS WAY! CLAP CLAP!
Oh boy, Call of the Wild! It was my childhood! Not the book tho, but an anime adaptation. The dogs didn't talk in it at all and there was quite a lot of narration. It wasn't a perfect adaptation but there was certainly more death and violence, including the murder of the one nice guy Buck had after being stolen. And there wasn't some female wolf to make him want to join the wolves. God forbid someone wanting to change their life for any other reason than getting some tail.
I find it funny that that was what passed for 'unnatural' back then, but when I read it I thought it was one of the most realistic depections of animals I had ever read.
I like how at the family dinner scene, Buck gets a hearty, luxury buffet on a full silver dish set, while everyone else gets bran-mush on paper plates.
The ten million dollar question is, which will Phelous run out first: lackluster rip-off cartoons, bootleg toys, Ghostbuster merchandise or bad horror movies?
Alina Nikulina I know! Who would watch a show with a main character THAT overpowered in it?! _(Hides his TV, which is currently on the Netflix page for One-Punch Man...)_
I know, right? And what's with all the purple dogs all of a sudden? There weren't any purple dogs in the book! Goodtimes pushing their diversity agenda again. Let's face it guys, Jack London is dead... Wait a minute.
Swells Wells Jack Nicholson Dog: WHEN I SAY WHOA, I MEAN WHOA!!! (Hits Senor Mustache who yells in pain) Cinema Snob: Jack Nicholson Dog does a fine Yosemite Sam.
drunkrdm By “beast of burden” they meant the beast himself is the burden. In other words he’s an inconvenience to those around him. They wanted to prove that he had some kind of worth.
"So the fights are gonna be hard for Buck, right? I mean, he's just a dog and he's going up against a human, a wolf, and a dog twice his strength." "Nah, it's gonna be super easy. Barely an inconvenience."
Ok, we KNOW Goodtimes "Staff" have no original or creative ideas, hence why they just steal Disney's idea of adapting old stories _(But forgetting to put the fresh and new take on it, naturally)_ but 1.) Why stories like this noone (or at least comparatively few people) knows about? 2.) Why stories Disney hasn't made movies about? If they're soulless and unoriginal, you'd think they'd at least have the good sense to be marketing wizards. Apparently I was wrong.
So a kids version of Call of the Wild? I'm calling it now, we don't get a scene where Buck attacks a village of Native American's to avenge a friend's death. Well it is Goodtimes, what the hell am I thinking?
Call of the Wild, White Fang, Moby Dick, Black Beauty, all have been reimagined as cutesy kids cartoons. If only Marquise de Sade had thought of including a dog or horse or some other animal in his works Goodtimes probably would have made an adaption of that too.
It was a hunting camp. And according to the epilogue the Indians still don’t dare go to that area because a huge grey dog at the top of a wolfpack (cough) kills everyone who does. *A faaaamily picture*
Can you imagine if these companies got their hands of “Game of Thrones” and decided to create their own endings/additions/sanitizations to the story, like Hodor sprouting wings at the last moment to safely carry Bran away from the Wights, Ghost defeating the Night King with a single pounce, Ramsay’s assault on Sansa being portrayed with a cartoon whisking away, the Ironborn’s drowned god turning out to be Old Man, etc.?
So... Whats next in the Jack London Goodtimes library? "To build a fire" with an evil magical snowman, or "The Law of Life" with Old Koskoosh and his singing bundle of sticks?
Honestly I have no idea what your objection is about. Strollers and Wheelchairs existed in the 1800s. Now to admit it was an odd design, especially the handles and the wheels (though rubber and Rubber wheels existed in 1897)... But there isn't anything I can see to suggest it is made of plastic other than being an anachronistic design.
I'm from Russia, Siberia. The "Call of the Wild" was one of my favorite composition, in a childhood times. Suddenly, yesterday, I've betinked about this composition. What I've seen in your review is a complete destruction of my good memorials. They've ruined the plot and everything. I'm just "under a cloud" after watching what they've done with my favorite story. I agree with you and your verdict about that cartoon. Thanks for your videos, We see it with pleasure.
Hey Phelous i found you through nostalgia Critic but i just wanted to say, You have quickly become one of my favorite reviewers. Currently you're a nightly watch (several episodes a night till i catch up)
Please do a theme month like Hunchback, Anastasia, and I THINK what you've been doing with these northern dog movies, and do The Ten Commandments/Prince of Egypt! 1. UAV's Moses: Egypt's Great Prince 2. Either Goodtimes' Ten Commandments or Golden Films' Tale of Egypt 3. Dingo's Prince of Egypt
21:26 .... wait... The ship is named Narwhal! No joke, my dad used to own a boat named Narwal (wich is the dutch spelling of Narwhal), and i came up with that name. Never saw this film. What a coincidence. Now i'm scared my dog will murder someone :(

So... who'd be up for a Goodtimes-y animated children's cartoon adaptation of "A Song of Ice and Fire"? Seeing how well these happy stories translate into family-friendly entertainment I bet that'd be a hoot! ...shit, I jinxed it.
I just love this. I have this whole set of DVD my mom bought for my children and I'm looking them up. Your videos are top Google results almost every time.
This is legit the darkest book I've ever read. (Not gonna spoil anything, though, just know that a lot of death is involved) Just making it all kid-friendly is still pretty insulting, though.
Actually, I heard that there were two versions of that short story by Jack London. In the earlier 1902 version, the man supposedly suffers from frostbite but gets rescued before he can die, allowing him to become “sadder but wiser”. It was not until the more well-known version later, that the protagonists ends up freezing to death. +Tommy Deonauth's Archives I remember being assigned to read it in School many years ago, right before we would then read “The Call of the Wild.” I recall it being about a traveler that ignores the advice of the Old Timers and goes out in the Alaskan wilderness at the height of winter. He gets caught in the cold storm and needs to build a fire. It is about his struggle against nature, how his inexperience and increasing desperation leads to him making mistakes (like finally setting his fire, but underneath a tree with lots of snow in its branches), how a canine animal acts as it follows him around, and his mindset progresses as he starts staring death in the face and becoming more accepting of it.
If the dog can prove he's more than just a beast of burden, he can escape being put down. So the challenge they give him to prove this is... pulling a REALLY heavy burden... Okay.
Fantastic review! Woof was clearly the best character. John’s mom is going to be quite surprised with her new house guest and her soon to be new husband! Truly whacky! Definitely appreciate Old Man’s cameo!
Lol, "So the dogs were in the hands of the mean-spirited Burton". All I can picture is him yelling at them "You have to be more careful, you were almost a dog sandwich!"
What exactly would Young Moby Dick be about? How he got his taste for human legs? If they made Moby sapient like they tend to do then that would just completely go against the entire point of the novel. Welp, the dad is clearly the same one from Angel for Christmas. Maybe he was just looking for a way to get away from that town of idiots?
That's my point. If Moby is sapient then he clearly can understand morality and can get grudges or think for himself rather than being a mindless animal that really only has its own survival in mind. If it can think then it would either feel remorse for biting off Ahab's leg, or none which means it would be either cold and unfeeling or evil.
I love your shirt in this video X3 Your videos make me so happy too. Love your flat and sarcastic responses, they make me giggle. Your voice is relaxing, really.
Has $200 to bid on a dog, yet not have enough to pay for his daughter's operation in 1897?
Yeah, this dad has his priorities straight.
Zinervawyrm He hid his diamonds that were his life savings in a cave but forgot about them.
Otakun The vegan My God!
In reality, at that time, the dog could have gone for about $5-$10. Tops.
@GM3210
I never thought about the fact he could afford the trip in the first place.
That's definitely very selfish of that father to put a dog before his own daughter. Maybe him dying wasn't a bad thing after all...

Lessons GoodTimes has taught me:
Hunchbacks are magic.

Death is something that can easily be overcome and should not be dwelt upon when it happens.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go become the villain the dark circles under my eyes indicate I am.
Don't forget how anything that gets wet is automatically useless and picking a rose is the worst thing you can possibly do.

If you're referring to The Secret of The Hunchback, then that's a UAV Corporation movie, not a GoodTimes released film.

Although, I suppose the UAV one was the only one where he was literally magic.

I find it funny that that was what passed for 'unnatural' back then, but when I read it I thought it was one of the most realistic depections of animals I had ever read.
That what they called furries back then?
I like how at the family dinner scene, Buck gets a hearty, luxury buffet on a full silver dish set, while everyone else gets bran-mush on paper plates.
The ten million dollar question is, which will Phelous run out first: lackluster rip-off cartoons, bootleg toys, Ghostbuster merchandise or bad horror movies?
Answer: none
Caarajack Is there a doll line based on Nickelodeon's Victorious?
Tommy Deonauth's Archives why the question?
Juan D'Marco Just thinking of an idea for Miraculous Merchandise Zone...
Mockbuster animations because these companies went put of business long ago
15:39 - Buck is "more than a simple beast of burden" because he will perform an act that... a beast of burden could do.
15:50 I'll bet two money bags.
HEEEEEEE-EEEEEEE
1:02 So accusations of making animal characters anthropomorphic when they are not suppose to be have been around since the 19th century.
12:21 "Yo son, listen well because I am going to say it only once: we have the best deals on second-hand Firebirds. Go North and make sure to ask Al."
Buck beat up those wolves with just one pounce even tho he has never had any Jedi training. Such a Mary-Sue.
Alina Nikulina I know! Who would watch a show with a main character THAT overpowered in it?!
_(Hides his TV, which is currently on the Netflix page for One-Punch Man...)_
I know, right? And what's with all the purple dogs all of a sudden? There weren't any purple dogs in the book! Goodtimes pushing their diversity agenda again. Let's face it guys, Jack London is dead...
Wait a minute.
Keenan frank it's a parody, not satire.
Saitama may be incredibly powerful, but he’s not even in the top class of super heroes because he has flaws. This makes him an interesting character.
Anyone else kinda want to see an actual Jack Nicholson animated dog?
I can see it now, the spin-off to "Rover Dangerfield" that God never intended to happen, "Jack Russell Nicholson" :P
Swells Wells
Jack Nicholson Dog: WHEN I SAY WHOA, I MEAN WHOA!!!
(Hits Senor Mustache who yells in pain)
Cinema Snob: Jack Nicholson Dog does a fine Yosemite Sam.
@@dr.penguinstein3426 Is it more or less dead eyed?
so they need too prove the dog is more then a "beast of burden" by having him do something a "beast of burden" is supposed to do.... kay >.>
1,000 pounds is _hardly_ a burden.
1,001 ...maybe.
"Let us prove that this creature is not just a beast of burden by having it perform as an especially effective beast of burden."
drunkrdm By “beast of burden” they meant the beast himself is the burden. In other words he’s an inconvenience to those around him. They wanted to prove that he had some kind of worth.
@@dancepiglover Wouldn't that be a burdensome beast?
If a beast of burden,
Bears a larger burden than himself.
That just makes him a standard beast
Are we sure Phelous isn't secretly Goodtimes and just making all these movies himself so he can review them?
Oh, you're right! The Absolute MAD LAD!
Imagine if he works for them and they pay him to sponsor them :0
Tadicuslegion78 I'd like to believe that but my experience tells me that " when it's too to good to be true..."
You've cracked the code!
XD that's the best thing I've heard all week!!
A Main character who can destroy his opponents, no matter how strong they are, in one hit?
_Get Real! That'll never catch on..._
Unless they're bull terriers.
What Sonichu what
Old man: stupid Dog 13:36
The most responsible father ever.
Most of these GoodTimes fathers are so stupid. Heheheheheheheh
"So the fights are gonna be hard for Buck, right? I mean, he's just a dog and he's going up against a human, a wolf, and a dog twice his strength."
"Nah, it's gonna be super easy. Barely an inconvenience."
This was one of your funniest reviews yet. Almost every joke had me laugh out loud. Keep it up, Phelous.
I'll never let you go.
1 second later....
Maybe It's time to let Buck go.
*One second later*
John: You're free now.
I remember this one. I saw it in a waiting room at a hospital when I had a bad ear infection.
Chocobo0Scribe You can associate pain with watching this movie then!
6:29- And John Thornton would later be played by Harrison Ford in the 20th Century Studios film.
Best ep of One Pounce Dog ever!
Ok, we KNOW Goodtimes "Staff" have no original or creative ideas, hence why they just steal Disney's idea of adapting old stories _(But forgetting to put the fresh and new take on it, naturally)_ but
1.) Why stories like this noone (or at least comparatively few people) knows about?
2.) Why stories Disney hasn't made movies about?
If they're soulless and unoriginal, you'd think they'd at least have the good sense to be marketing wizards.
Apparently I was wrong.
Because they want money
ouh That's kind of my question - they obviously ONLY care about money.
Why are they so bad at making it?
King Edward "Longshanks" I, Hammer of the Scots, Lord of Wales and King of England feed these shitty films to the wolves.
Call of the Wild is fairly well known.
Go read a book
I need to do that too, after all.
So a kids version of Call of the Wild? I'm calling it now, we don't get a scene where Buck attacks a village of Native American's to avenge a friend's death.
Well it is Goodtimes, what the hell am I thinking?
stlouisrocker100 Dingo wouldn’t be afraid to do that shit!
Pfft, we apparently can’t even get Spitz dieing. XD
Call of the Wild, White Fang, Moby Dick, Black Beauty, all have been reimagined as cutesy kids cartoons. If only Marquise de Sade had thought of including a dog or horse or some other animal in his works Goodtimes probably would have made an adaption of that too.
It was a hunting camp.
And according to the epilogue the Indians still don’t dare go to that area because a huge grey dog at the top of a wolfpack (cough) kills everyone who does.
*A faaaamily picture*
Can you imagine if these companies got their hands of “Game of Thrones” and decided to create their own endings/additions/sanitizations to the story, like Hodor sprouting wings at the last moment to safely carry Bran away from the Wights, Ghost defeating the Night King with a single pounce, Ramsay’s assault on Sansa being portrayed with a cartoon whisking away, the Ironborn’s drowned god turning out to be Old Man, etc.?
That's Carlos (RE3 voice) doing Buck's voice. :D
So... Whats next in the Jack London Goodtimes library?
"To build a fire" with an evil magical snowman, or "The Law of Life" with Old Koskoosh and his singing bundle of sticks?
I keep expecting this Buck to run into Eek the Cat and Sharky the Sharkdog.
Oddly enough THAT would have made this movie A LOT better! XD
The mother had a stroller, even though plastic didn't exist in 1897.
Bet trees weren't pink either in 1897.
Honestly I have no idea what your objection is about. Strollers and Wheelchairs existed in the 1800s. Now to admit it was an odd design, especially the handles and the wheels (though rubber and Rubber wheels existed in 1897)... But there isn't anything I can see to suggest it is made of plastic other than being an anachronistic design.
It could've been celluloid which existed in the 1860s and 70s
Please do Adventures of Young Moby Dick. It's the only Good Times movie I've seen and even as a kid I thought it was hella weird.
16:23
Oh my god I can't stop laughing at that face!
3:28 Well this can only mean that the old bastard has previously threatened to let Buck maul the butler to death if he didn't obey his every command.
I'm from Russia, Siberia. The "Call of the Wild" was one of my favorite composition, in a childhood times. Suddenly, yesterday, I've betinked about this composition. What I've seen in your review is a complete destruction of my good memorials. They've ruined the plot and everything. I'm just "under a cloud" after watching what they've done with my favorite story. I agree with you and your verdict about that cartoon. Thanks for your videos, We see it with pleasure.
Hey Phelous i found you through nostalgia Critic but i just wanted to say, You have quickly become one of my favorite reviewers. Currently you're a nightly watch (several episodes a night till i catch up)
Thanks!
Please do a theme month like Hunchback, Anastasia, and I THINK what you've been doing with these northern dog movies, and do The Ten Commandments/Prince of Egypt!
1. UAV's Moses: Egypt's Great Prince
2. Either Goodtimes' Ten Commandments or Golden Films' Tale of Egypt
3. Dingo's Prince of Egypt
21:26 .... wait... The ship is named Narwhal! No joke, my dad used to own a boat named Narwal (wich is the dutch spelling of Narwhal), and i came up with that name. Never saw this film. What a coincidence. Now i'm scared my dog will murder someone
:(
Well, as long as you got good intentions, he'll probably ignore you!
They did White Fang AND Call of the Wild?!
WHY
The animation is bad even by Good Times standards
It's the poor man's WEEDON SCOTT
Pink Mounties! This is what the people complaining about Trudeau see in their nightmares
12:25 WHAT EVEN IS THIS
The moment Mushufasa said "follow your heart" I knew what clip was coming next...
Kid friendly Landon? What's next? A kids version of Kneel to The Rising Sun? õÕ
I'm looking forward to the Goodtimes Shadow Over Innsmouth
+Tareltonlives "Call of Cthulhu: The Animated Musical"! XD
Wait why is there a random Native American Eagle spirit?
Because the writers are idiots!
IAmTheUnison ok🤔
The art of the ass pull. A trick all lazy writers use.
The Spirit of the Hawk
The untrustworthy guy is untrustworthy. Especially against living things.
MforMovesets Luckily I am semi-trustworthy guy who is semi-trustworthy and I love living things. But I also love money bags sometimes. In fact I believe that untrustworthy guy might be the guy from the wanted poster in dingo Balto.
Hi Old Mayor. How's your cousin Old Man and your niece Beauty ?
French Paul 1988 They are doing great. I robbe-err got some nice gifts from them recently.
OH BOY!
TIME FOR GOOD OLD, OLD GOODTIMES! 💕
Phelous is probably the best scholar of bad animated movies ever
8:37 Is this movie trying to make Buck and John look like star-crossed lovers?
14:24 o_o Never mind.
"Fine-ass much, Gramps."
There's something I find completely hilarious about seeing a silly looking cartoon mounty suddenly speaking in a very serious commanding tone.
So... who'd be up for a Goodtimes-y animated children's cartoon adaptation of "A Song of Ice and Fire"? Seeing how well these happy stories translate into family-friendly entertainment I bet that'd be a hoot!
...shit, I jinxed it.
I really like the animation style.
Holy crap... I actually remember watching this years ago! No wonder it looks so familiar!
Who’s looking forward to Goodtimes version of Shilo? Oh wait they’re bankrupt.
Thank God!
Goodtimes were the MASTERS of putting in loser dads.
This is making their White Fang movie look like Balto in comparison
Amy Barton Which Balto?
avionpiscean33 The movie Balto. Like it makes the story and animation look better in comparison. This is so generic and cheesy looking
I just love this. I have this whole set of DVD my mom bought for my children and I'm looking them up. Your videos are top Google results almost every time.
This is legit the darkest book I've ever read. (Not gonna spoil anything, though, just know that a lot of death is involved) Just making it all kid-friendly is still pretty insulting, though.
It's as insulting as making a H.P Lovecraft story kid-friendly. It just doesn't work.
MasterofGaburincho Oh....they did that too. It’s called “Howard Lovecraft and the Frozen Kingdom.”
Andrew Ollmann
Which is why I did a subtle reference in my comment. I still can't believe that's a thing...
Jack London is rolling in his grave.
They actually made an animated cartoon for children out of a Lovecraft story? Lord have mercy, who thought that was a good idea?
I can't wait for the animated version of 'To Build a Fire'
THAT would be an uplifting tale...
bloodrunsclear
What exactly is that?
Actually, I heard that there were two versions of that short story by Jack London. In the earlier 1902 version, the man supposedly suffers from frostbite but gets rescued before he can die, allowing him to become “sadder but wiser”. It was not until the more well-known version later, that the protagonists ends up freezing to death.
+Tommy Deonauth's Archives
I remember being assigned to read it in School many years ago, right before we would then read “The Call of the Wild.” I recall it being about a traveler that ignores the advice of the Old Timers and goes out in the Alaskan wilderness at the height of winter. He gets caught in the cold storm and needs to build a fire. It is about his struggle against nature, how his inexperience and increasing desperation leads to him making mistakes (like finally setting his fire, but underneath a tree with lots of snow in its branches), how a canine animal acts as it follows him around, and his mindset progresses as he starts staring death in the face and becoming more accepting of it.
It's another Jack London story.
bloodrunsclear Ah... I see.
Mark Cobuzzi Thank you for that...
If the dog can prove he's more than just a beast of burden, he can escape being put down. So the challenge they give him to prove this is... pulling a REALLY heavy burden...
Okay.
Lol loved the references to the heritage minute Yukon gold rush section. Made me laugh
kevin justason Fuck, that made me so happy seeing that! I'm so happy you remember those too!
Can't we have an animated dog/wolf film that includes a battle against a big cat like a cougar? I'd pay to see that.
Buck is "One Pounce Man".
Hilarious as usual, Phelous! This makes me want to read Call of the Wild again, too!
Awesome, hilarious and very new wave!
Oh and your review was ok too...
lol just kidding :)
Great episode, thanks for the laughs and keep rocking!
after all these years I finally realized that burton was sabretooth all along... (from the x-men series)
Fantastic review! Woof was clearly the best character. John’s mom is going to be quite surprised with her new house guest and her soon to be new husband! Truly whacky! Definitely appreciate Old Man’s cameo!
I read both Call of The Wild and White Fang in 8th and 9th grade and I like White Fang better, because stories of corruption making me depressed.
Lol, "So the dogs were in the hands of the mean-spirited Burton". All I can picture is him yelling at them "You have to be more careful, you were almost a dog sandwich!"
I'm shocked phelous didnt mention that the other dogs that were captured would be pretty useless as sled dogs.
Why do Goodtimes animations look like 90s WB and Disney cartoons teamed up with DIC Entertainment?
Not to mention looking like the '90s trying to imitate the '60s in terms of animation.
Winner Star
That's exactly what I thought!
@@diegobareno5820 and that weird Hammerman show I won't be surprised if it was the same character designer.
That would be an improvement actually
What exactly would Young Moby Dick be about? How he got his taste for human legs?
If they made Moby sapient like they tend to do then that would just completely go against the entire point of the novel.
Welp, the dad is clearly the same one from Angel for Christmas. Maybe he was just looking for a way to get away from that town of idiots?
VauschthePuca The moral of the novel is its impossible to get petty revenge on an animal. Animals have no ill in their hearts like most humans do.
That's my point. If Moby is sapient then he clearly can understand morality and can get grudges or think for himself rather than being a mindless animal that really only has its own survival in mind. If it can think then it would either feel remorse for biting off Ahab's leg, or none which means it would be either cold and unfeeling or evil.
VauschthePuca Animals aren't mindless but yea I get what you mean.
My prediction of Phelous on reviewing Call of the Wild was right.
Byron Chandler MAH... GOODNESS GRACIOUS GOLLY GOSH!
Well it looks like it was expected
I hope Young Moby Dick is a shitshow on "Tentacolino" levels.
I love your shirt in this video X3 Your videos make me so happy too. Love your flat and sarcastic responses, they make me giggle. Your voice is relaxing, really.
Oh my goodddds YES Phelous is FINALLY reviewing something from my childhood this has made my night
The waving crowd: *Triangle triangle!*
at least Goodtimes never made an animated adaptation based on Cujo, although that would honestly be kind of interesting to see now. XD
>Phoenix Animation
>Phoenix Games
Is GoodTimes related to Dingo Pictures?
This video has the 1900 equivalent of 10 quadrillion views.
