Rudyard Kipling was a racist and exploitive colonialist.
Shame on you HT.

I hadn't made that connection, but yeah he was a bit of a Jew basher, but why should that be a major poetic problem? It's not like he was a publicly elected official paid by the tax payer. I'm not sure Kipling had to bother with elections out in bongo bongo.

I didn't plead ignorance...
I just hadn't joined the dots. I'll have to change my name again now. Or get a new account. Again.

You don't know when to shut up, do you?
Everything you write on /links is some sort of self-righteous rant, and it's becoming tiresome.

Why bother with the real life kid at all
Surely they could've just drawn the whole thing?

I'm not a fan of this Uncanny Valley CGI stuff, but I was very taken with the Jungle Book.
Could have done with more songs though. Come to think of it, I've only seen the song extracts of the original Disney film, twice a year on Disneytime throughout my childhood. No idea how it ends anyway.

There's a massive explosion and a corporate type from The Jupiter Mining Corporation™ demands that they hand over the monkeys. Hope this helps.

Looks like shite, clogs up my YouTube ads
Looks like it does nothing to stay faithful to the Rudyard Kipling original (considering out). Looks chock full of CGI (pretty much out). Looks like a kids' film (totally out). The bird wants to see it (nope, totally and unequivocally out).

The Disney one is a fucking masterpiece, however
Go stream that for free for your spastic kids.
Followed by Robin Hood. Dang.

'Looks chock full of CGI'
Yeah. They must have got tired of searching for bears, Tigers, snakes and monkeys that could actually talk AND act.
I was disappointed with 99% of the cgi
And that clip shows the 1% I was impressed with was actually real.
