Mr Lasastryke 05/22/18 2:00:03 PM #18:	i haven't seen the previous jungle book movie but i heard it's a weird hybrid between the book and the animated movie. like, you're supposed to take it seriously and then suddenly you get "I WANT TO BE LIKE YOUHOU" and it feels totally out of place. so yeah, if that's true and this movie is going to be more faithful to the book, that definitely sounds like an improvement. --- Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta <cite>Mr Lasastryke posted [p:901794595] in Dark and g...

Lopen 05/22/18 2:05:46 PM #20:	Yeah that's the meat of my grief with it. Although ~~singing Christopher Walken~~ is far from the only time that occurs. That and there's a too much tell not enough show in it for my tastes. Though probably the main reason that last part is so much of an issue the kid they got to play Mowgli in it was a terrible actor and obnoxious. --- No problem!

Ngamer64 05/22/18 8:44:17 PM #25:	I thought I was losing my mind when this trailer went up on youtube last night. Jungle Book was a pretty big hit and I heard they confirmed a sequel, so I assumed this was it, but then they were just telling the same story over again...? The funny thing is they actually completed filming in early 2015 and wanted to have it out for Thanksgiving 2016 but had to push it back two years after Disney beat them to the punch. So now we'll get to watch live action Jungle Books three times in six years, hooorah. --- BKSheikah dominated even The Show hosts in 2017, wow! board8.wikia.com \| thengamer.com/xstats <cite>Ngamer64 posted [p:901816032] in Dark and g...
