The mother calling “I’m here…helloooooooo…!” Used to creep me right out as a kid. Turns out though that his mother’s voice calling to him was actually a hunter using a deer caller, and the crows that fly out of the brush are actually warning Bambi by squarking “Man! Man!”
The "I'm here" still creeps me out to this day XD
I never thought of it as a deer caller though, that's cool!!
@@kassiebork Ronno explained it earlier, which was a foreshadowing of what was going to happen to Bambi later. The 'I'm here' voice is like it's trying to make it sound how a deer would hear it from their point of view if they could talk human.
The scene kinda ticked me off though, because I would expect Bambi that despite his mother being gone, he would learn the lessons she taught him like "Never going out alone into the meadow. There might danger. Out there we are unprotected; the meadow is wide and open and there are no trees to protect us.".
So not only should Bambi have realized sooner that the voice wasn't his mother, but his mother would have never wanted her little son to wander off like that, especially into the meadow. Would have been better for Bambi to before he go out like that, he says to himself, "Hold on, mother told me not to rush out..." then notices the crows flying away, meaning that danger's hear and then starts to run, and the hounds start to chase him and then his father comes in calling for him in which he quickly has Bambi hide while he takes out the hounds and then calls him out for running off like that.
@@osmanyousif7849I know this comment is old but Bambi is also still young and impulsive. If he thought he heard his mother calling him, he may have thought it was safe to come out. Especially because he clearly misses his mother. He has a dream about her prior to hearing the hunters deer calls.
@@osmanyousif7849 he was cautious to begin with. He didn't run out, he was checking but he froze then the crows started calling
I prefer this movie over the original because of the beautiful story. The relationship build between Bambi and his father is incredible.
A perfect family movie
Agreed. When it comes to movies were the family is the focus or the romance, I often prefer the family ones.
I like it better too!
I agree! It‘s even my favourite Disney movie, although I saw it first when I was already 25 😅. Loved the songs and the story most.
WHAAAAAAT?!? Ahh okay 👍🏻
Pretty sure it’s implied that Ronno ends up being the deer Bambi fights in the first movie when he’s grown up
I think it's confirmed they're one and the same.
@@lulystalgianature2968 oh right! I love that 😄
@@vixiestarfire "One of these days we'll meet up again. And when we do..." that's how Ronno ended the scene in this movie. It was clearly to imply the deer that fights Bambi in the original is Ronno.
@@lulystalgianature2968 so the deer that fights bambi on the first one is ronno? cool i dindt know
There are quite a few callbacks to the original that give it away. Him using his head to try and make Faline leave with him, even the “choreography” of their fight is with similar lighting and the animation is repeated shot by shot if you go back and compare the two.
One of the best Disney sequels for sure. I loved the fact that this took place exactly after the mom's death. The time skip in the original was too out of place and cheerful. Didn't give a chance for viewers to grieve. This film took the perfect opportunity to show how everyone coped with the event.
Yeah, I never understood that, either. I didn't grow up with Bambi. I'd seen The Lion King enough times, though. That really took time for Simba to be upset and even though it has a time skip, it's after the sad event has sunken in for the audience. It's not gunshot, transition, la la la it's spring and everything's happy, and on first watch, I was all "Um...didn't that sad thing everyone remembers about this movie just happen?". Of course, Mufasa's death is more important story-wise, but while we see Simba dealing with it by blanking out his past (he really has almost forgotten his father as Mufasa's spirit states), we never saw how Bambi dealt with losing his mother until this movie.
@@strawberrysoulforever8336 Precisely. In The Lion King, not only do we see an actual body, but it gives time to see Simba grieving, and the audience too. I believe Bambi 2 in part meant to fix the random timeskip of the original.
Ronno is the deer that was fighting Bambi for Feline when they were adults.
Hard to believe that stuck up cowardly brat. . .well come to think of it. . .he hardly changed that much. He just learned to keep his mouth shut.
@@otakuwolf4ever985 KML😂😂😂😂
Honestly, the loss of a parent is already hard enough, but having your only remaining family member not show you love or make you feel unloved is even harder. Especially for a small child. To be honest, it’s probably that serious issue that makes the movie so entertaining.
Rewatching this I’ve only just realised Mena says “Faster, Bambi, don’t look back, keep running” which is exactly what his mother said to him before she was killed 🙃
Fun fact: The Great Prince was voiced by Patrick Stewart, who declined the role of Jafar in Aladdin, and said it was one of his biggest regrets.
That’s interesting. Luckily, Johnathan Freeman pulls off the role of Jafar very well.
And he pulled off a great the great prince
Bambi II is up there as a Disney sequel we didn't need, but really appreciate. Also, Alison Krauss singing 'There Is Life' is enough to make me believe Heaven is real!
That song makes me freaking cry. Every. Single. Time.
And I can’t desensitize myself to it because it’s one of the household favorites and my 6 year old daughter watches it at least once a week.
When Bambi is frozen and can't move, it's a literal deer in headlights moment. That's why the lighting looks like a pair of headlights, and he doesn’t snap out of it until his dad knocks him over.
This was one of the few Disney prequals/sequals that I enjoyed when I was younger. It's honestly really cute and I love Bambi's relationship with his dad. Glad you liked it, too!
I agree. It's not 1 of the sequels I like *the most* but I *do* like it and that's enough considering a lot of Disney sequels go from"lame"to"suck"!;-P
If I remember correctly, the initial title for Bambi 2 was called Bambi and the Great Prince. Seem a like a more fitting title than Bambi 2, since this film is a continuation of Bambi’s younger days.
Agreed! It would've been a great title...
The original "BAMBI" carries a lot of respect in the animation community. So when Disney Toon studios decided to make "BAMBI 2", they decided to make it right by doing what Walt's animators originally did. With the help of veteran Disney animator Andreas Deja, the crew studied live deer for study and reference.
“There Is Life” is perfection in my book. I know the original Bambi has gotten flack for the gear shift from saddest scene ever to the bright and cheery bird song, and I feel THIS is how to transition from tragic death scene to something a little more hopeful. 💖
I couldn’t agree more. Going from a tragic scene with the death of Bambi’s mother to the cheery spring scene felt rushed imo. To me, it didn’t give the audience a chance to recover from that sad experience. Whereas in Bambi 2, we slowly move out of the dark and gloomy atmosphere and back into the brighter side of the story.
Patrick Stewart as Bambi's dad did a great job in this film and his voice does sounds like the original actor from the first film
Sooooo happy you liked this one. It's so underrated and I love it so much! Watching a hardened character soften up through their bonds is always so heartwarming. Especially when you realize why the great prince is the way he is. For example, he wasn't telling Bambi not to talk about his mother for no reason, it was because talking about her hurt him and he couldn't handle it at first.
So beautifully done.
I loved the sequel. I thought it was a magnificent idea to what Bambi was like living with his father.
Ill say this, if you EVER watch beauty and the beast: enchanted Christmas, just prepare yourself because the villain, is Absolute NIGHTMARE fuel
It’s worth it for Tim Curry’s voice acting 😁 he also plays the creepy skull door in Bartok the Magnificent
@@vixiestarfire that I do know but still Forte gives me the creeps! Tim Curry will always be the king of villains!
Tim Curry is a Legend🇬🇧💖
The amount of moments in this movie that makes me cry is unreasonable and unfair I’m in tears in every emotional moment in this dang movie 😂
same ^_^
This sequel is too overlooked. It's one of the best Disney sequels for sure, right on par with The Lion King 2 I dare say.
@@lulystalgianature2968 I agree with you 💯
This is such a great sequel. I was a bawl baby when I watched it.
This movie gets me every time! It's so damn emotional! And as you said the visuals are STUNNING! Patrick Stewart was the perfect choice for Bambi's dad too imo.
I would love to see you react to Arcane. It's a new series over on Netflix and it has some absolutely gorgeous visuals that I think you would really appreciate and such a gripping plot too!
I feel like Disney rarely explores father/son relationships this movie was sooo good
I absolutely love this film! The quality of Bambi 2 is really good, in terms of visuals and animation. I like how the story revolves around Bambi growing into adulthood and focuses on his relationship with his father. This film, in my opinion is very charming and enjoyable, much like the first. Great reaction Nick!
Hello i see you quite often in UA-cam
@@muslimwoolfy-winterequestr4344 Guilty.😅 I just recently subscribed to Nick’s channel, couldn’t pass up on animated film reactions. What can I say, animation is my passion.😉
@@SpacialRend7 yeah and his reactions are wonderful as always
I see in you In DJ gamer’s channel but I don’t know if you have noticed me 😅
I am really glad I suggested him to watch snowdrop and my little dashie
@@SpacialRend7 yep me too I like watching animated movie reactions and especially to under appreciated gems like this one.
And his reactions makes things so much better.
@@muslimwoolfy-winterequestr4344 Of course I noticed you. I recall replying to a few of your comments on DJ’s videos before. 😉
I haven’t seen Bambi 2 in so long, but it’s actually a pretty decent sequel-ish. Seeing you reacted bring me back how surprisingly solid it was. And it shows that 2D animation isn’t as dated as society pushed you to believe when it can be enchanted. You’re feelings on The Aristocats we’re pretty on point. It’s not a bad movie at all, but it’s one of the less favorable golden era Disney classics.
The Aristocats is not a bad movie indeed. It's just too slow paced for many people's liking. Which is precisely why Nick compared it with The Secret of NIMH. That one was a much darker movie, but had similar pacing.
@@lulystalgianature2968 Yeah. And Secret of NIMH is more widely known as an underrated gem.
@@MrGamer07100 I agree. Although it's rather slow, it has a very unique storyline, and gorgeous animation. Don Bluth went as far as to put a mortgage on his own house in order to have the remaining budget to finish it.
You see the thing is Ronno is jealous of Bambi, because he's a prince and he gets attention from the other forest animals. That's why he picks on Bambi and he is the buck Bambi fought in the first movie.
Bambi II killed it as a sequel. I love that the textures and shading in this movie give each scene a storybook illustration quality. It certainly highlighted the gorgeous design and animation for the Great Prince. Thank you for another great reaction, Nick! I hope you can watch Mune if you haven't yet and if you have time. It has almost the same color palette, but in 3d: ua-cam.com/video/X-YuxDOO8pU/v-deo.html
Yeah. Disney spin off movies often get a bad rap, but sometimes, they have some great ones that add a lot to the story. Didn't watch this one until now and I realize I was missing out and only watched "Cinderella 3" a few weeks ago because I watched Nick's reaction to it and found it hilarious!
And I know that its not as spectacular quality as the first, but I actually love Aladdin's sequels"Return of Jafar"and "King of Thieves"(but maybe just because I loved the animated series so much when I was a kid and 2-3 bridged the movies and series.)
@@phousefilms I love the Aladdin trilogy and the series! I think the series used to air either before or after the one for Hercules. 😁
Remember in Bambi 1 where Adult Bambi fights the bad deer that tries to get Faline? That was Ronno as a young deer that you've just watched.
I often refer to you as the "Bambi" of reactions because all of your reactions are so wholesome and kind.
This movie’s more of a midquil because there still young.
This movie took place right after the first one where Bambi’s dad surprised him and told him his mother can’t be with you anymore.
So that’s where this movie takes place.
But great reaction Nick as always.😊
For its out of the darkness that we learn to see
And out of the silence that songs come to be
And all that we dream of awaits patiently
There is life 💖
12:29 It's the men's whistle Ronno was talking about.
17:21 - 17:27 I just realized Thumper reminds me of Bunga from"The Lion Guard".
I really loved the slow build up in this movie. A lot of people don't like the prequels, but I really love this movie.
If you like visually pleasing movies, I would suggest "Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole"
The visuals are stunning and I just love this movie. It sadly gets way to little attention...
The music in this is beautiful.
Ronno should theoretically be the deer Bambi fights with, when they are older (Bambi 1)
It’s not theoretical it’s confirmed
Apparently Patrick Stewart is the only actor in the sequel to be alive when the 1st bambi became out. He was 2 years old I think.
I loved your first reaction to bambi, it was such a childhood comfort for me. It's been so cool seeing you grow from about 15k to this! I hope you're having fun in what you're doing!
I'm so glad you got to it! I thought this one to be really emotional, so it comes to Bambis relationship with his father
So happy you reacted this movie. Bambi 2 is definitely one of the best sequels. I love how the relationship between Bambi and his father develops. And I’m such a crybaby when it comes to this movie, especially for the ending🤣
That scene with the mom's voice, scared me to death when I was a kid. It stopped me from watching the movie for years.
It was an interesting at on a second movie. The father was less of a character in the first, more of a force. Being able to see that grieving that a lot of people go through, including the point where certain types of people try to close themselves off to the rest of the world, was pretty humanizing for his character. A wonderful sequel.
If you haven’t seen it yet you should check out the show The Mandalorian. The relationship between the two main characters and the situation they’re put into is incredibly similar to that of Bambi and his father and is even more heartwarming.
I got teary eyed so many times 😅 I really love the theme of grieve and Bambi and his dad's relationship developing
The music in this movie is one of my favorites tbh There Is Life is so pretty
This movie is so precious 🥰🥰🥰
Love this movie too
Sir Patrick Stewart voiced Bambi’s dad 😄 (aka Professor X from X-men)
I am glad you watch this movie. I love this movie and perfect plot for father and son: The Great Prince and Bambi
What I love about this movie is how faithful it treats it’s source material like you can feel the love the creators put into it
I am so happy that you do a reaction video on bambi 2! It’s one of my favourite sequels of Disney! Love your reaction!
I love your reactions so much! They're so honest and pure. Thank you for always making my day!
I never clicked so fast before! Bambi 2 is my favourite Disney sequel, it just just too cute, emotional and beautiful, I am glad you liked it and got invested in Bambi's relationship with his dad
I cry everytime I watch this movie and this time wasn't the exception
The first movie is great with the colours and music. The little dialogue made the movie unique to me. But the second movie will always be my most favourite because of the character development and the song, “At the First Sign of Spring” is so beautiful :,) I just realized that the voice actor for the Prince voices a character from Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, which is an amazing Studio Ghibli film! Thank you for the great video and commentary as always :)
Right beside Lion King 2 this is the best Disney sequel during the direct to video era.
This was my favorite movie growing up. I can quote it word for word. The porcupine’s ‘back in my day’ rant is something my sister and I still joke about today.
This is my favorite movie, I cried so much watching this reaction, cause I could remember myself watching as a kid... Bambi's relationship with his dad it's just amazing, I love the scene when Great Prince shows the place where he meet Bambi's Mom...
This is one of the best Disney sequels. I'm so glad you decided to watch this one. And the music is beautiful ❤
Hey nice shirt Nick! And thanks for reacting to this movie!
Moral lesson of the movie: a prince can, sometimes, woohoo.
I have always preferred this one over the first!! I used to think it was the first movie and that the actual first movie was the second movie, I just love the relationship between father and son, those relationships are so rarely shown in a good light!
Hi Nick, I subscribed a few weeks ago. I love your channel and your videos, keep up the great work. I love how you really connect with the story and the characters, reminds me of myself when I watch a movie, it drives my brothers crazy. Also, I'm so excited to see your Maleficent video, it's an amazing movie. By the way, I think maybe sometime you might want to look into the movie Little Shop Of Horrors (1986) . It's a little bit scary at some parts but overall it's a musical comedy and an amazing film. Again, love your videos and keep on enjoying these diffrent movies.
This one was a beautiful story honestly. I really enjoyed it as well. A deep message
Merry Christmas,Nick!
Ronno or Ronald I can’t remember his name but the bully deer is actually the same Deer that adult Bambi fights in the original. That’s what the line “some day we’ll meet again” is referring to. Amazing reaction Nick! I love this film so much :)
One of the best sequels, love the music, thank you for the reaction! Just what I needed to cheer me up after a bad start to the morning. Make sure to check out Balto and Ferdinand sometime.
I don’t know why but seeing you geek over snow to the point where you hope spring doesn’t come is hilarious
Definitely one of the best Disney sequels ever, and one of the few that is an improvement on the original in pretty much every way. The animation is gorgeous, as are the songs. The voice acting is on point and the plot is interesting and emotionally investing. Honestly I'm not much of a crier, it's very hard for movies to get me to do that, but this movie makes me cry several times without fail. Maybe its because the relationship between Bambi and his father speaks so much to what I had with my dad, never living up to his expectations or being the way he wanted me to be, and me desperately wanting him to be emotionally open with me and treat me as his child, rather than just a younger him. Unfortunately that did not have the happy ending that this movie has, which is why I think I cry so much at this, because it makes me wish for what could've been, but wasn't.
This song at begining is hearthbreaking. In Bambi is see how song can make feeling from movie.(When you know he lost mother and in Bambi2 its started with sad scene. This literally got me xd)
I knew you would love this one 🥰
This movie is a perfection! The songs are stunning!
Easily the best thing about this movie is that Thumper and Flower get much more screentime. I also love the fact that we actually got to know Thumper's sisters this time around as well.
My mom had a deer growing up on the farm she lived on. She named him Bambi, he had his back legs cut off from a machine in the woods where they cut trees
The voice of Young Bambi in this movie is voiced by the voice of Nemo from finding Nemo. He did a good job
It’s Alexander Gould Voicing Bambi in This Film!
Bambi 2 makes me cry way more than the first one, I'm sobbing 😭
Man i love your reactions video!!
Still one of my favorites and made me cry like a baby! Glad you got the chance to enjoy it and enjoyed the development of the characters!!! Hope you get to look at other Disney animated films when you get the chance!
true. I have it same xd
This movie is so sweet, one of my top comfort movies :')
You know the little deer Ronno is the same deer that Bambi fights in the first Bambi when there grown up, he is the one they fought when he tries to bully Faline a bit but tries to steal her from Bambi, but he fights him for her.
I really like this movie because Disney has managed to tie the events of the first one into this one so nicely. There are so many parallels and references or foreshadowing to the things Bambi experiences as a young buck in the first one. Like fx the fight scene between Ronno and Bambi in this one has a lot of resemblance and could be a foreshadow to the fight scene in the first movie between Bambi and the buck that is supposed to be grown-up Ronno. The same kind of parallel can be seen between the dad's fight scene with the dogs in this movie and Bambi's fight with them in the first movie. And you see a parallel between the scene where Bambi's dad tries to get him up in this movie and the scene where he tries to get Bambi up after Bambi is shot by a human in the first movie. I think stuff like that are really nice touches and it really helps to tie the two movies together c:
Classics live on forever
If there's a movie with animals, snow, and a creek in the forest, I'm in. I wish I could live in a beautiful forest like that. Someday I will but for now I'll just dream.
Bambi II is one of my favourite Disney midquels and I grew up with it along with the original Bambi in my childhood. Another you could watch is Peter Pan 2003, I grew up with that film too.
Rewatching this Ronno as a fawn reminds me of Cera from The Land Before Time. Especially his "confrontation against Man" story.
This is one of the best sequels of the movie Bambi that I really love and I just remember watching this movie over and over when I was little, mostly because of the songs, animation style and just the character development was one of the best in my opinion. I can’t wait for your next reaction; I was wondering if you can react to Arcane League of Legends? It’s a Netflix series that just came out with 9 episodes.
Another banger nick
I agree bambi 2 is one of the best sequels!!!
I watch this movie when I was 7 years old in April 2006 & now I’m 24 years old
WE NEED A BACKSTORY ABOUT THE GREAT PRINCE AND BAMBI'S MOTHER!!! @NickFlix
EYYYYY ITS EARLY!!!!!
Bambii shares a voice actor with Nemo (in this movie) and it’s great. Such a cute voice
One thing I heard about this movie was that it was actually in some theaters internationally outside the original America direct home video release. I don’t remember exactly though
Great reaction to a great movie) Nick, it’s always such a delight to see your reactions))) Also, since you are starting to watch kinda remakes but different stories like “Maleficent”, maybe you should try “Oz the Great and Powerful”, it’s also pretty interesting.
Oz the Great and Powerful is my favorite
Okay now time for the third movie, I really love all of them 🥰
I don't know if you remember but Ronno showed up in Bambi 1 as well XD
Fun fact: The person voicing Bambi in this movie did the voice for Nemo in Finding Nemo.
This movie made me cry as a kid
Bambi s dream is realy exited and sad and pretty i love this dvd😭😭😭😭oh dear mother😟
"Keep running, don't look back!"
Bambi's Mother last words... @Nickflix
You're not the only one who prefers this over The Aristocats! :D They did a beautiful job with the Bambi sequel!
Remember the Buck Bambi fought for Faline in the first film? That’s adult Ronno! When you saw Ronno head butting at Faline to make her move away from Bambi in this Sequel, just like in the first film
Cats don’t dance is severely underrated animated movie
marry Christmas nick
