Mowgli is a really underrated protagonist. He's not only sympathetic, but he is more complex than people give him credit for. He spent his whole life knowing that he is human, but never knowing what a human is. Which is why he suffers from an identity crisis that compels him to imitate the animals he comes across in hopes of finding an identity. And we understand why he's so stubborn and rebellious; it's the frustration and insecurity that comes from being so out of place, never knowing why and never knowing why he can't solve it. This is the most important reason why he had to go to the Man Village. Humans, by nature, can only be properly nurtured by mankind itself.

[@a.g.demada5263]

True. In France, where I live, a real Mowgli existed centuries ago, known as " Victor de l'Aveyron ". He was captured when he was around 12 years old and a doctor decided to take him in his home and see if he could be rehabilitated. Apparently, it was a success but the young boy never managed to talk except making some sounds. There's a movie about him " L'enfant sauvage " (The wild child in english)

This was the very last movie that Walt Disney himself made, before his passing. Also, the vultures song, it originally was planned to be some kind of weird.....I don't know what to call it, but something bad weird, but it was Walt Disney's idea to turn it into a quartet.

[@HobGungan]

The parts were originally written for The Beatles and with a song in their style, but Walt thought they were just a fad and putting them in would date the movie, that's why they went in a different direction (though the inspiration is still obvious in their final characterizations)

If you didn't know, but there is a prequel animated series, where all the characters, Baloo, Louie, Bagheera, Hathi, Kaa, Akella and Shere Khan, were not only shown as children, but even in principle were friends, and it is much sadder to realize who all these characters will become and that, well, it was the appearance of Mowgli in their lives that quarreled and separated them from each other. And also a full-length sequel, in which, in fact, Mowgli's life among humans was shown. I would like the next reaction to it, so as not to lose the thread of the plot.

Hey, Tim! I watched this movie growing up and thought it was okay. Never could make it to the end, but I love Bagheeras' design! Baloo is a sloth bear, and sloth bears are much, MUCH worse than tigers. The voice of Shere Khan was also the first Mr. Freeze in the 1960s Batman TV show; one of the last roles he did before he died. Kaa has the same VA as Pooh Bear, and he still does! Jim Cummings plays Pooh, Tigger, and Kaa in subsequent projects now

[@serenitytoepper]

Shere Khan has so little screen time, yet he's got such a great presence as a villain. While it's one of the Disney sequels and not fantastic, "Jungle Book 2"had a pretty good replacement voice for Shere Khan in Tony Jay(who also played Megabyte in "Reboot"and Frollo in "Hunchback of Notre Dame".)

[@nathancruz9172]

To be fair, the vultures told Mowgli to run after they flew away to get away from Shere Khan. They didn't want Shere Khan to attack him.

[@joedesena5402]

So about the disclaimer at the beginning: Walt Disney originally wanted to cast Louie Armstrong (a famous singer and jazz musician at the time) as King Louie, but his team were concerned that people would find it racist to have an African American play an ape. Walt reconsidered and decided on Italian American jazz singer/musician Louis Prima instead. Despite this, some people still see King Louie as an offensive black stereotype.

Baloo’s mauling at the paws of Shere Khan may have been brutal, but, really, the bear was fortunate that Khan decided to dish that out on him. If Shere Khan had killed him like a real tiger would, he would have bitten Baloo on the back of the neck and finished him right there. Baloo should consider himself lucky that Shere Khan was SO pissed that he decided to draw out his pain for as long as possible, inadvertently allowing Mowgli and the vultures to step in and save the day.

[@isaiahadams1996]

Thanks for doing this, Tim. I been requesting this for a while. Plus The Jungle Book is my # 1 favorite movie of the Disney Silver Age

[@HobGungan]

This was the first movie I have a memory seeing in theatres (in the late 1980s, I'm not that old, Disney used to periodically rerelease their classics theatrically). Kaa was always my favorite. Don't know if this was mentioned, but the Vultures were originally written for The Beatles, but Walt Disney thought they were a fad and would date the movie, so they cast other actors and changed the song to a barbershop quartet.

[@ThePinkDragon]

Jungle book was my first Disney movie at a drive in as a child loved it

[@matityaloran9157]

7:19, in the book, Mowgli is the only one immune to Kaa’s hypnotic gaze (due to Mowgli being human.)

[@staffan-]

In the orignial Jungle Book novel, there is more of a point made about how Mowgli differs from the animals. As a human, he tends to look others directly in the eyes. Direct eye contact is percieved as a challange by many animals, and it is making them feel uneasy with Mowgli. Contrary to the movie, Kaa is unable to hypnotize Mowgli because of this and Kaa and Mowgli are friends with respect for each other.

[@matityaloran9157]

23:49, incidentally, that was a reference to the book. Baloo warned Mowgli not to frolic with the Bandar-log (the monkeys). Mowgli ignored the warning and got kidnapped for his trouble so Baloo and Bagheera rescued Mowgli and Mowgli evaded the monkeys who hunted them down to kill him by getting Kaa to eat them. Baloo is reluctant to discipline Mowgli for his mistake since he knows Mowgli feels sorry for it and Bagheera reminds him that the Law of the Jungle says that “sorrow can never stay punishment.)

[@IferGanomer]

I didn't like that film. Seeing how they basically made Tarzan out of Mowgli, by omitting "talking" animals, for effects sake, while adding caucasian human characters, for character dynamics and foils. I mean, we have Cersei Lannister as a Jane-esque love interest, while Mowgli is aged up, considering the endagerment of a child near real-life animals. The 1942 film captures the premise better than this film. I'd argue even the 2016 remake does a fine job in walking the line between Kipling's stories and the Disney classic.

[@AliSakurai]

The Last movie to have Walt Disney's personal touch. His last contribution to this film before he sadly passed away was suggesting that the girl be the reason mowgli wants to go stay the man village. He sadly was never able to see this film finished. The scene where Baloo and Bagheera dance off singing was done as a tribute to Walt.

[@shannonmcelroy8454]

While it's far from a perfect film, I'm glad it still has so many of Walt's final trademarks. Gorgous artwork, fluid animation, superb voice acting, and bittersweet music that really gave me chills as a child. I like to think it influenced my later tastes in animated storytelling because of how immersive it was. Anytime I feel trapped in the real world, I'm always ready to find a classic Disney picture to warm my heart. Any story that feels like a warm hug is a welcome diversion.

[@NoelleMar]

I agree that it’s good to include that statement at the beginning. I feel as though the question of whether to remove a work of art for being problematic is practically moot at this point. Works of art and media aren’t accessible nowadays because of technology and copyright, issues created by companies in order to hoard these pieces and compete with other huge businesses I guess. There’s more of an outcry nowadays against diversity than bigotry. Even acknowledging bigotry at all gets far more backlash than actually being bigoted. If many accuse someone of prejudice, and any actual change is made, it’s usually because that accused person is a minority. When movies or shows are removed because of being offensive, it’s often without discussion and is more about avoiding controversy than anything else.

Regarding similarities with the Lion King, there is one key scene in the Lion King that appears to originate from the original Jungle Book novel (so spoiler warning for the novel, I guess). The novel continues after Mowgli arrives at the village, and we see Mowgli grow up to be a young man. At the end, he has a final encounter with Shere Khan. Shere Kahn is resting in a canyon. Mowgli then takes help from his friends the wolves to make a herd of water buffalos stampeed down in the canyon, killing the tiger. And as we know, in the Lion King, Scar takes help from his friends the hyenas to make a herd of wilderbeests stampeed down in a canyon, killing Mufasa. Quite interesting how this action is reversed from being the good guy killing the villain, to the villain killing the good guy.

"Mowgli" is definitly worth watching! It's not a Disney live action but another version so you can watch a different story. I don't know if it's more based on the book but it's less "light" and "fun", I mean you can feel how the jungle is wild, the characters are hurt and get dirty... I really liked it! There's also a different live action by Stephen Sommers but I haven't watched it, I only know it doesn't adapt the Disney version.

[@dcemerald70]

Here’s a fun fact. When they were creating The Jungle Book, the creators or animators were told not to even read the original book. And they wanted to make the plot basic, so it would just be Mowgli eventually making it to the man village. And there is a sequel to the animation film called The Jungle Book 2. And there are other Jungle Book movies that are popular or underrated. One was made in the 90s starring Jason Scott Lee and there was another one called the Jungle Book Mowgli’s Story starring Brandon Baker from Johnny Kapahala. There’s a live action remake of this first film. And there is one called The Second Jungle Book: Mowgli and Baloo which is based on the second story of Jungle Book. Also the names of the animals like Bagheera and Baloo are actual word translation in the Hindu language what animal they are.

If you liked this, I really do suggest you watch the Disney remake. It's faithful to this movie, while also adding more elements from the book and being different enough to be judged as it's own movie. It is my personal favourite of the Disney remakes.

I personally recommend that you react to the 1942 Jungle Book before the others. That version they claimed to be the grandest and most suspenseful version of them all. The only film closer to the original book.

[@noelleanglade1412]

React to the live action reboot of The Jungle Book next please! It’s even better than the original and the cast in the new one is amazing!

[@BartyCrouptonJr7745]

100 % agree

[@vetarlittorf1807]

In what way is that monstrosity better than the original? The remake can't even keep the tone consistent.

[@AngelMurillo-k2q]

You should do a reaction to the live action The Jungle Book and Mowgli.

Ooo i really like your shirt Tim

Beyond the modern remakes, I would actually recommend the 1994 Disney live-action remake which is a really fun watch. Also the direct-to-DVD sequel to this The Jungle Book 2 is even better in my opinion

[@vetarlittorf1807]

That's not a direct to DVD. That was theatrically released.

It's good to watch the OG Jungle Book, growing up with vhs with the Lion King. It it also shows the regardless how good the remake is, it still did the same thing the Lion King remake did. Same story, characters, plot, beat4beat remake with some differences. Even the remake Isn't as lively as the OG animated film, same as Lion King. The point is there's nothing the remake Jungle Book did better than the Lion King remake. As enjoyable as it is, they're both remake of Disney classics.

[@memyselfandi7782]

YES YOU SHOULD WATCH MOWGLI! It’s really GOOD!

There's also a 90's version
