    King Louie is an original character created for the movie. He was originally supposed to be voiced by Louis Armstrong, but Disney knew there would be a backlash if a black man voiced an ape, so he was replaced by Louis Prima. Prima enjoyed the role so much that he asked Disney for an expanded part. And some more fun facts: There was supposed to be another new character named Rocky The Rhino, but Disney eventually dropped him from the movie.

    I love this movie so much. The only problem I have with it is the fact that Mowgli didn’t get to say goodbye to his wolf family. And that they weren’t seen or mentioned again for the rest of the film. They were his family for ten years, it makes me unhappy with Bagheera. If you knew he would have to return to the Man Village then why leave him with the wolves for so long?

    • @Nicamon

      My main problem with this movie *is the ending!* I get that the _real_ reason Bagheera wanted to bring Mowgli to the Human Village was to make him grow among his own kind,but the EXCUSE everyone used for the whole movie was that Shere Khan was too dangerous and too anti-human. By the end of the movie *Shere Khan is gone* and Mowgli STILL ends up in the Human Village all because he met a cute chick! *NO!* 🤬💢 He should have stayed with his animal friends and family!That's the *only* thing I appreciated of the remake:the different ending!!OR,at the very least,make him spy on the Human Village and making him see _all kinds of humans_ grown ups,children,males,females and let me understand he's being curious about them all and _that's_ why he decides to meet them...making him abandon his home and family just for a random girl is almost *offensive!* Possibly realistic..maybe..but offensive!>^

Which is why I appreciate the larger role the wolves play in the 2016 reboot, and in other good adaptations of the books.

    "How is he alive?" Because it's a cartoon. Especially back in the days, when injuries in cartoons were used much more often for comedic effect. Meaning, they usually didn't cause any permanent damage.
    Except for the villains. They usually die.

    I ‘ve seen some people argue that Mowgli’s a brat for not wanting to leave the Jungle for his own safety; I’d honestly argue that Baghera is far more unbearable to watch in this version. He gives up on Mowgli twice over the course of a day, just because Mowgli’s putting up pretty minimal resistance to wanting to leave.

      Maybe it's just me but, I view Bagheera as like an overly protective parent figure. He knows ((or at least thinks he knows)) what's the best for his kid & said kid isn't being as cooperative as he thinks the kid should be. Therefore, he gets huffy & storms off. Not trying to say that it's a good reason for Bagheera to act like that but, sometimes parents can be just as overdramatic ((if not more so)) than their kids.

    • @sardonicus1739
      @sardonicus1739 2 года назад +2

      Personally I think he was extremely valid to walk off. We're forgetting about who's doing who a favor here, or the fact this is a panther we're dealing with which aren't social animals or ones known to show mercy, and yet he still does. Baghera had no reason to protect that child in the first place, but still did it out of the goodness of his heart. If it hadn't been for him specifically Mowgli would have died at multiple points. Mowgli not only shows no appreciation for him going out of his way to protect him and walk him miles through the jungle on his back, the kid actively antagonizes him for even trying to protect the him. The kid isn't just a brat. He has a sense of arrogance in himself that's utterly obnoxious and delusional. Frankly that kid kind of deserves to get a taste of reality and actually see he's not invincible.
      I always took it that Baghera deep down never would have really walked away from Mowgli in a serious manner where he's not still looking out for him, but is letting Mowgli try things himself so that he might finally realize that maybe he can't do everything by himself. Sometimes you have to give a kid a little bit of space for them to figure things out themselves, and learn to appreciate things more. I don't think a child can learn anything if you constantly hover over them and tell them what's right and wrong and what they should do, cuz that brings in their natural desire to rebel.
      It feels like a parent seeing their child have a temper tantrum and instead of validating that, instead walking away from it and letting the kid burn themselves out before coming back.

Going hungry would come often, as well as eating the raw flesh of other animals once he got old enough that he could no longer survive on just wolf milk. Danger would be everywhere in this world he'd know as there are predators all over the place. Death would be everywhere as well. We know he's aware of the concept of death since he thought Baloo was dead towards the end. For him to be this fearless makes no sense at all in his environment.
      He has the attitude of someone who grew up extremely sheltered and spoiled, and is completely unaware of his own mortality not the attitude of someone who would have had to struggle for survival all the time.

    One of Walt’s last films he got to oversee production of, but didn’t live to see the final product.
    During one Comic-Con, Disney animator Floyd Norman once told the story that The Jungle Book was significant in his career. How? Despite being one of the studio’s first black animators, he said that Walt Disney himself used to appoint him in charge of some work. At one point, Norman was nervous to be in his presence when he shared an elevator with him by himself. Walt was more interested in his drawings that he was holding in his hand and had him directly involved with several projects.

    Bagheera the panther is willing to help Mowgli, but unlike the wolves he doesn't have the Pack mindset. Panthers are generally loners. A female might have had more of that nurturing side to handle Mowgli's stubbornness, but male panthers generally spend their lives alone. So you can't really blame the guy for getting impatient with Mowgli. But I always liked that whenever he left, he never went too far away. He was always able to get back quickly when trouble arose.

    I don't know if you know this, but this was the last film that Walt Disney was involved in. He died before it was released, and they were worried they couldn't do it without it, or if it would even be successful. Fortunately, it was, and I'm sure Walt Disney would be proud.
    Also, Phil Harris voices Baloo, the bear; he also voiced Thomas 'O Malley in the Aristocats, and Little John in Robin Hood.

    The one difference I find surprising is that Kaa originally didn’t play an antagonistic role in the original book. When Mowgli was captured by the Bandar-Log/monkeys, Kaa actually hypnotized the whole gang to bring them to a different part of the jungle so that Bagheera and Baloo could get him out.

    As a kid, I got a bit confused how Baloo and Bagheera got those black eyes, when they got them but I noticed in later years that Bagheera get his when Baloo accidently hits him with the door, and most likely Baloo got his when the rock hits his head as they flee from the falling ruins.
    By the way, Louie's laughting comes from The Song of the South, where Br'er Rabbit laughs like a maniac and convinces Br'er Bear and Br'er Fox to lead him to their Laughing Place (Fox is suspcious but is forced by Bear who wants to see it, only for them to be leading to a trap and Br'er Rabbits freedom).

    Baloo should consider himself lucky that Shere Khan was SO PISSED that he chose to slash him to death, rather than bite him in the throat, like a tiger would have done to kill a sloth bear in real life. That gave the vultures time to distract Khan, so Mowgli could tie a branch to his tail, before he could finish the job.

    Here's some fun (and one not-so-fun) facts behind this film:
    - The guys behind the music are the Sherman Brothers. They're the same duo responsible for the music of The AristoCats, Mary Poppins, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, and a host of Disney Park songs from attractions like It's A Small World, Enchanted Tiki Room, and Carousel of Progress.
    - Phil Harris, the voice of Baloo, is also the voice of Thomas O'Malley in AristoCats and Little John in Robin Hood.
    - And, now, for the not-so-fun fact: Walt Disney ended up passing away during the production of this film, making this the first film released after Walt's death. The AristoCats would be the last movie green-lit by Disney himself and Robin Hood would be the first film released without Walt's involvement.

    I appreciate your special attention to the voice of Shere Khan, for George Sanders is one of my favourite actors.
    He used to play cynical villains and was perfect for the job.
    He wrote a delightful book : Memoirs of a Professional Cad.
    I recommend you two films of 1941 : Fritz Lang’s Man Hunt where he plays a nazi and W. S. Van Dyke’s Rage in Heaven where he is a nice guy.
    But above all you’ve got to watch Rolf Rilla’s Village of the Damned (1960) a masterpiece : it’s a sci fi movie (I usually don’t like that category, but this one… waouh !)

    The Vultures haircuts are based on the mop-tops that the Beatles had. In fact, they were planned to be voiced by Paul McCarthy, John Lennon, Ringo Staar and George Harrison but their manager said no to Disney, hence why didn't do it. The song That's What Friends Are For was going to be more of rock style a la The Beatles but since they didn't do the voices, Disney changed the song into barbershop quartette.
    It's a good thing The Beatles didn't agree to it cuz they changed from the mop-tops to their later hair styles starting with Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hears Club Band by the time The Jungle Book was released.
