    I personally love the difference in personalities between the two Shere Khans. Idris Elba's interpretation was commanding, imposing, and ruthless but still highly intelligent. He's portrayed almost like a force of nature and nobody would dare cross him alone. Sorta like a brutal dictator. Benedict Cumberbatch's version is straight up nightmare fuel. Unhinged, unpredictable, and calculating. If Elba's interpretation is like a dictator, Cumberbatch's version is like a serial killer.

  • @dntm123
    @dntm123 2 роки тому +2561

    I think the main thing about the animals in Mowgli is that they have more human eyes and are designed to be more expressive. I imagine Serkis went this directions because: A) that's what he's good at, and B) so that the viewer can connect more with animal characters. While on the other hand, The Jungle Book opted for more photo realistic animals.

    • @orangeman3220
      @orangeman3220 2 роки тому +72

      Exactly. The animals themselves represent human personalities and they were designed to channel expressions effectively, which could not be done with photorealistic animals. You would have to dumb down the dialogue and delivery in order to match the realistic animal performance, and that's just very limiting imo.

    In terms of CGI, The Jungle Book is better. The animals look and act how they really would in real life. But when it comes to actual story, Mowgli is MUCH better. It's my favorite of the two, to be honest. It's darker elements are what make it fantastic, and the voice acting is far better in my opinion.
    Edit: Mowgli is the indisputable winner. Also, Baloo's accent is absolutely fantastic in that movie.

    What made the rebooted Planet of the Apes trilogy so memorable? It's because, despite the excellent images, the apes displayed emotion and had human-like eyes, and one even smiled. So it's not the photo realism that's important, but the quality of the CGI. If Andy Serkis' version had been of the same brilliance, this would have been the clear winner. The CGI, on the other hand, isn't horrible; it's just a touch poor in comparison. In terms of plot and acting, I preferred Mowgli over The Jungle Book. I truly hope they do a Mowgli sequel with the same core characters.

      The difference is Apes already have facial structures that more closely resemble human faces so motion capture doesn’t come off as jarring as with cats or wolves. I think this was the main distinction between how the movies were received.

He was a calculating, cold but honorable character that definitely made well in his promises.

    That is the exact same sentiment that brought us the Lion King 2019, and that movie was horrible because of it. Realistic Animals cannot act, because they're Animals. Mowgli has a wonderful art style, the perfect blend of Animal X Human features, that is both striking, and allows the animals to emote in ways real Animals can't. I can remember Bahloo, Khan, and Bahgeera's faces from Mowgli, because they're are memorable faces, unlike Jungle Book, where they don't have memorable faces, they have generic animal faces.
    Realism doesnt always have to be the goal, CGI being believable ≠ CGI being realistic.

    The Mowgli designs are really interesting. Like the designers went out on a limb with them. They're weird-looking, way less realistic and kinda uncanny with the way they're made to look more human, but IMO it's a worthy payoff. That more human face allows for just _so much more_ expression from them, which is much more important to good storytelling than photorealism is.
    It's hard to word, even in more subtle clips, it actually looks more like they're speaking naturally. Look at each Akela at 0:32 as they deliver their voice lines. Mowgli's Akela looks way less like a realistic wolf, but has these subtle shifts of expression to his delivery that a person would make, gives weight to what he's saying. Meanwhile TJB's just looks like a wolf moving its mouth to the voice line.
    And the difference in Bagheera's expression at 0:15. In TJB, you can glean that something tense is going on only by the unexplained moment of silence followed by him saying "down"--visually, he just looks like a panther, existing. Meanwhile Mowgli's Bagheera has a distinct look of distrust or concern about him, such that you don't even need a voice line to communicate tension. Showing to telling.
    Not to say TJB is bad by any means. It's probably the best Disney CGI remake. It has its strengths to Mowgli, and frankly the animals in it just kinda look better. But I love the uniqueness of the Mowgli designs. They were risky but I think they work really well, and draw me into the story much more.

Mowgli feels more stand alone and unique whereas The Jungle Book clearly is trying to set up a sequel.

    Both movies were incredible. I specifically am more geared towards Mowgli, just because it’s darker and more intense. I think it highlights a lot of the animalistic and human elements more effectively, especially Mowgli’s connection with the environment and the pack. Mowgli is very much a more involved film. Hence why it’s more complicated to process. Mowgli was also much more emotional and deeply rooted.
    Plus this was directed by Andy Serkis. Makes sense. In terms of tone and direction.
    In short, I always say that Jungle Book is for kids and then Mowgli is for adults.
    Yes Disney’s CGI maybe better but keep in mind it is Netflix. Budget wise.

    @girlgamer6678 9 місяців тому

    Personally, I feel like Mowgli wins in almost every way including cgi and character design. Sure, Jungle Book by Disney looks more realistic, but if I wanted photo realism I could just watch a documentary. When I watch a movie I'm not here to say "oh wow, look at how real that looks" for an hour and 30 minutes. I'm here to connect, to feel, and to be scared and endeared, to experience, and Mowgli deliverd in that regard so much better.
    The characters do look uncanny, yes, but not to an aggregious or even noteworthy degree, where it constantly sucks me out of the movie. It draws me in. The characters actually can express their feelings and wishes to a surprisingly minute degree. The subtle expressions on their faces are done beautifully and always convey exactly what is meant to be conveyed. Nothing looks out of place or left to misinterpretation, their emotions are on display as much as ours are as people. Their textures and anatomy are on point enough to blend in perfectly with the actually live action Mowgli and other people, but still leave tons of room for expression and nuance.
    The most "uncanny" designs are definitely Kaa and Shere Khan, but to a degree it works in their favor. Both are unnervingly, unsettling portrayed in the movie, and if they had normal designs it would get lost in translation and seem a bit overkill. But with Kaas strongly human face, Shere Khans long and tilted eyes and is dragging paw that makes constant sharpening noises, their voices and performances match up and leave the audience unnerved whenever they appear on screen, and that's the point. I wish Disney would take a page out of this movie, on how to do live action right without loosing character and expression, because Mowgli nails it. Some aspects of their design could be dialed back a little, but it works given how much darker Mowgli is from Disney's The Jungle Book.
