Bambi II

*Raph's Girl* · 02-01-2006, 06:20 PM

Bambi II comes to DVD/Video on Feb 7th. The official Disney site has uploaded at least 15 min of the movie on their site. In this mid-quel it shows Bambi being raised by his father, The Prince of the Forest (voice by Patrick Stewart). It also appears there's another young male deer named Ronald. He's somewhat older than Bambi (his antlers are starting to show) and either wants Feline or is her brother (not sure...but he seems more like her first BF or something).

Ronald is a bully and constantly pokes fun of Bambi.

Go here to see 15 min of the the movie:

I'm actually enthusiastic for this one... for a sequel. It's obviously not going to hold a candle to the original, but... two words. ANDREAS DEJA.

As for that, I'm glad to see our friend Ronno back. Ronno was Bambi's rival for Faline in the original movie, and was even in the book that Bambi was based on. However, they've tweaked his character a bit for this midquel.

All in all, the humor may be a little juvenile (because it's a DTV sequel, after all), but the animation is beautiful, the animators have actually bothered to stay on-model, the music is definitely a homage to the original in style...

...and the stag is being voiced by Patrick Stewart!

Awesome.

The joke sketch, not the sequel...

A sequel to a classic movie that Disney could so bank off of, and its straight to video?..

Meh..I don't expect to much from it.

We kinda got that in "A Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie" where Kermit wishes he was never "born"(dude you hatched out of an egg!). In the timeline where he was never born Kermit went to a mall (it used to be central park) and there was a Doc Hoppers resteraunt as well as other places that had frog legs. Kermit freaked out of course.

I said this in the other Bambi 2 thread we had, and I'll say it again.

I think this looks really good.

Thank you.

I don't expect it to measure up to the original (I would be surprised if it did) but it should be better than some of Disney's more recent 2D features. I think the complaints are coming mostly from sequel stigma. Understandable, but I've been impressed thus far with the quality of the clips I've seen floating around.

*Brodie* · 02-04-2006, 01:27 PM

I hope this one ends with a buckshot.

*Drtooth* · 02-04-2006, 01:45 PM

These sequals always scare the daylights out of me. There may/maynot have been a reason for this too be made, but what the hell was the point of Cinderella 2? It's over. I feel they had better luck sequalling recent movies like the Lion King or Lilo and Stitch. When they get to the older ones, they tend to ruin it. I saw Jungle Book 2, and I can't even say one good thing about it. Simply horrid. I really wish, if they wanted to make money off of Baloo, they'd've made a Tailspin movie.

I think it's interresting this film is only available 2 months.... very interresting...

Oh...just wait...just wait till 2007 when Cinderella III comes out. Time travel is involved!

The evil stepmother congers up a spell that reverses all of which the fairy godmother did. Everything that she had made (the dress, the horses and the carriage) which were the reasons why and how Cinderella went to "The Ball". So when all the magic is gone will there be a happily ever after all? What will Cinderella do? Find out in Cinderella III.

So now the evil step-mother is a witch!

Forget Cinderella III or Mulan 2 and 3 (why the shell do we need sequels for a story about one of the greatest heroes of China? ) or Little Mermaid 3 (guess what people...she dies in the original story...

).

I for one just want a sequel to "The 10th Kingdom"!!! ARGH!!! Come on!!! I want more adventures of the grandson of Cinderella and Snow White!! Virginia even said there was more adventures! Darnit! I wanna see "House of Wolves" now!!!

Soundtrack by Huey Lewis and the News.

Call me bitter, but...

For Cinderella III, truthfully, she probably wouldn't have that happy ever after. The Prince was living in a shallow world and he only saw her because she was at his ball. He never would have seen her if she were locked in that room. But I just know they'll make some 'love conquers all' crap and have a happy ending. Bah.

And as for The Little Mermaid... I have a fairy tale book with all the ORIGINAL Fairy Tales as they SHOULD be, and not the 'kiddified, Disney-fied' versions. As for me, I prefer the originals. Now make THAT into a movie and that'd be SWEET.

And lol, Zarius. I used to have a Huey Lew t-shirt. In neon, of course. I mean, it WAS the 80's..

I hated Mulan II. Tell me, what the hell was the point of that movie? Except for Mushu. He's one of the funniest incarnations of a dragon I have ever seen

Besides, he's the ONLY animated dragon I have seen in ages. But still

As for the Little Mermaid....KILL HER!

Bambi II...I guess a Mid-qual wouldn't hurt. Show Bambi coming to terms with the world. Heck, if Patrick Stewart is involved, it HAS to be good

But all the same, I hope Disney bothers to do a good job of this one unlike some other movies they have made...

Mandi-chan · 02-06-2006, 03:45 PM

I hated Mulan 2 because the story was weak, the love interest turned into a dork, and Mushu became a total ass! That, and the deeply stupid "servant/slave" thing with Mushu and the Spirits.

I loved Mulan too much to watch the sequel. And from this, it sounds like that was a good decision. I mean, even the animation in previews had me gagging.

It tickled me that (original) Shang was B.D. Wong and Donny Osmond.
