I actually really love that they went that route. Those were real creatures, they may not even be extinct people in India and tropical Asia have reported seeing giant orangutans for a long time.

So, weirdly assuming this Jungle Book takes place way in the past, it's entirely possible. Plus it just looked and felt cool.

But dat Buloo tho.

>>82655388
He intended in his phraseology that he wished to obtain fire, the creation of man, better known as the Red Flower by the creatures of the jungle, to cause his wildest fantasies of ruling the jungle become a reality. However, he is unable to obtain the Red Flower and make this plan function without the aid of a second person, namely Mowgli, whom he believes able to create the Red Flower.
>>
>>82655587
It's a name for fire and more poetic.

>>82655130
They merged the actors faces with the animals? Why? It looks so fucking weird.

>>82655130
I don't mind him being a gigantopithecus but the fact that he calls himself it in his song is weird to me

>The fossil record suggests that individuals of the species Gigantopithecus blacki were the largest known apes that ever lived, standing up to 3 m (9.8 ft), and weighing up to 540 kg (1,190 lb).[
Pretty sure that he is bigger then 3 meter in the movie
>>
>>82655130
To make him more intimidating/regal.
>>
>>82655772
I'm more impressed by the fact he managed to rhyme the word Gigantopithecus.

King Louie didn't die in the original tale, right? I was surprised when he got crushed in the movie, shit was brutal.
>>
>>82656342
Louie wasn't even in the original . He's a Disney creation.

I found it weird how such an upbeat song was being sung by a giant allergic to smiling.
>>
>>82655130

More importantly why didn't his fat ass move during the song? Took all the energy out of it
>>
>>82656342

He crawls out of the rubble during the credits. I'm not sure how reliable that is but if they ever want to make a sequel they can use Louie

>>
>>82657276
But ScarJo can't sing, honestly some of the singing felt unneeded. It took me out of the movie. Louie's song was the only one I really liked and that's mostly with how Walken was able to make it seem threatening.
>>
Torrent name?
>>
>>82656523
It wasn't a credit scene though, it plays immediately after the movie ends. The credits are in the form of a book and a mini King Louie dances around on the pages after crawling out of the rubble. You missed that?

>You really are too kind to me. Nobody else cares for old Kaa anymore, I hear them talk and mutter from up here. "Fat old overgrown creeper vine" say the bird people, "Dried up old hag" say my cousins, the cobra tribe.
>Those chattering Bandar-log call me "Kaa The Creeping Death as Thick as Tree Trunks", so even those stupid monkeys are good for something other than filling my belly.
>But none give me my due respect anymore. Only their fear and hate. Save for dear old Baloo and you. You polite, dear sweet little man cub.
>There now, come close. Wind yourself in my coils and warm these old scales, there's a dear. None in this jungle will hurt you while you are beside me. Thhhhhthhh...
>Perhaps I should just go to sleep with an empty stomach and never wake up. Why bother living just to shed another skin and eat thrice my own body weight in monkeys? No one would miss poor old Kaa...
>Oh come now, don't cry. Old Kaa was only teasing. It does the heart good to see one person in this whole jungle would miss a silly old snake like me. Old Kaa won't leave this jungle so long as you dwell here, you can visit me whenever you like.
>You want me to wrap my coils around you more? Well, if you insist. Tell me if I hug you too tightly.
>See how your arms can nearly touch round my sides? A few years ago they couldn't reach half that. You've grown so much, without even shedding your skin once. You men are so strange...
>Oooh you're so warm. You feel like the midday sun against my breast. Though this part of you feels warmer still...

The only things that gave me the shits about The Jungle Book was that Louie didn't move and dance at all during his song, and that Balou wasn't voiced by John Goodman.

Is it seriously just me or was Bill Murray just not a good fit?
>>
>>82677908
Bill doesn't have a deep enough voice to feel right for a bear. Plus, all of us are most likely comparing him too Baloo's original VA from the animated movie.

>>
>>82681006
Damn. I only read the book recently and had hoped small nods like that made it in instead of simply being mostly the disney movie. Still might give it a watch when I can. The hyponitism not working on Mowgli and that being the reason he's able to save Bageerah and Baloo from walking into Kaa's mouth would've been a nice segment to include. It seems like the change to "Be like You" was well taken for the change in tone so another push of the envolope would've been cool to see.
>>
>>82681549
There are a lot of nods to the bok, and many characters do have more of their original personalities and traits, such as Kaa being nearly omniscient and knowledgeable, Bagheera being a powerful and respected hunter, the elephants being revered as the creators of the jungle, Baloo kicking some serious ass, and Akela and Raksha being badass, as well as scenes from/inspired from the stories, but on the whole it is more like the animtated film. But it is a whole lot darker and less silly than the original, I highly reccommend it.

While Christopher Walken as King Louie was one of my favourite parts of the movie I gotta be honest with you:

If I wanted to see a bloated, angry orange orang-utan who thinks he's human incoherently express his delusions of grandeur, I'd go to a Donald Trump rally.
