    Incredible analysis. Dare I say a few steps above every other one I’ve seen. You just have such a way with words.

    My take:
    1:36 I disagree with that. I think Mowgli was just trying not to fall.
    3:45 I disagree. Mowgli clearly is afraid and wary of Kaa's gaze. He just doesn't want to show it too much.
    5:54 What makes you think that? Mowgli knows from experience that Kaa is trying to eat him and that's why he's trying to avoid his eyes.
    8:29 I don't think so. Mowgli obviously just looked at the tail as an observation. And Mowgli is not spoiled. He may be sheltered, but he's more like confused and insecure because of his identity crisis.
    10:37 The reason is because Mowgli is in a very fragile emotional state in this scene due to feeling unloved and unwanted.
    15:07 Again, not spoiled. Mowgli can be rude, but only because he's confused and afraid. There's no reason to think Mowgli lacks empathy.

    If mowgli were to meet kaa a third time, would he be more resitant or vulnerable to the hypnotic spell?
    Im curious if you think mowgli processes the hypnosis as instantaneous or slow and gradual

    • @karimion2157
      @karimion2157 2 місяці тому +3

      Based on what we see, it seems the effectiveness of the hypnosis depends on the prey's emotional state. Mowgli is more resistant to the hypnosis at first because he's headstrong and strong-willed. But in the second encounter he couldn't resist both because Kaa caught him during an emotionally vulnerable moment (Baloo broke his promise to Mowgli, which made him feel betrayed and unwanted) and, as the video points out, being blindfolded likely made his eyes more photosensitive and thus more susceptible to sudden exposure.
      Bagheera fell into a trance immediately because he was afraid of Kaa, which made him vulnerable.
      And you can notice when Kaa hypnotizes Shanti, he's not just controlling her. He's practically puppeteering her. Shanti had been raised to be a perfect obedient daughter who never questions authority. That alone makes her susceptible to a mere fraction of Kaa's hypnotic power. And that's not even mentioning the fact that she was literally facing her worst nightmare at the time, which completely nullifies any chance of an ounce of resistance.

    How did he know Kaa's tail beckoned him?
    Kaa never told him to move, only to shut his eyes.
    Did anyone analyze this moment already?

    This is great. :D I don't think I disagree with any of your thoughts.
    Also, I have few questions. Will we get analise of Shanti and Kaa encounter? Or Kaa and Shere Khan? Or live action one? Also, If I'm correct, this scene use cgi to make more pictures per second. Is there a video made ONLY with those cgi pics, like, where real ones were removed?

      To answer your questions:
      - Both encounters will be analysed, yes.
      - I am not doing the live-action one.
      - You can find these on Taro's Kaarchive, under fanmade videos.
