      Back in the '90s I used to tell people that if Disney had cut everything else out of the film and released that flight sequence as a short subject, they could have gotten an Oscar nomination. Probably not true, but still…

      It really is! Even just from a technical standpoint, I've always considered that sequence near perfect. The compositions ("shots") they chose are not easy ones and the emotional impact is so strong with that incredible score. The characters' anatomy, illusion of movement, gravity and weight are all just seamless. I think people sometimes forget in 2D animation that there is no camera, the characters have no mass, no skeleton and the law of gravity doesn't exist on the page... Cody is not actually falling towards us or away from us, we are not seeing his distorted reflection in an eagle's eye, those are all just illusions created by the artists' skill. Just creating a realistic looking eagle in 2D animation that still has personality and movement is so difficult. I think it was this movie (and that sequence) that made me develop such high standards for animation even as a small child. Just pure magic.

    McLeach is probably the most underrated Disney villain. He doesn't even hesitate to kidnap Cody when faced with the threat of being reported to the rangers. And later attempts to feed Cody to the crocs. But like most Disney villains, he meets his end by falling to his death (like the Evil Queen, Gaston, and Clayton).

      I lost track, but has Nick already reacted to Atlantis: The Lost Empire?
      I have a theory about that movie's villain compared to these other villains that met their demise. Commander Rourke started off straight-faced and like a seemingly nice gentleman, but when his true colors were revealed. It was all about getting rich quick no matter who lives or dies in the process. Now when comparing to past villains before him like Percival McLeach. They both strived in striking it rich, but McLeach didn't need to act subtle to get what he wants. He made his intentions known the moment he met the protagonist. To sum it up, each Disney villain dating back to Walt's lifetime and ones from after his death (specifically the 90s Renaissance Era) didn't need to hide their true evil nature until the end. A twist villain became the staple for Disney's animated flicks post-2001.

      I completely agree. He's a poacher, killed Marahute's mate, takes pride out of what he did, was probably gonna sell those other animals for a profit after they were turned into fashion, kidnapped a child, threatened/forced the child to give up Marahute's location, abused Johanna, made Cody believe that Marahute was dead, kidnapped Cody AND her again, and then tried to kill Cody with fucking crocodiles! And the worst part? There's actually people like him in real life. What a despicable human being. He deserved to die at the end 100%.

    Marahute is just one of my favorite…ANYTHING in animation. I’m already an animal lover but they struck such a fantastic balance between making her realistic and yet still so expressive. Glen Keane (who also led animation on characters like Ariel and the Beast) and the rest of the animation team did amazingly at selling her scale and nature. She really does feel like a national treasure.

    So few people have recorded themselves reacting to this movie. I've always found it to be a thoroughly enjoyable Disney Renaissance film as well as 2D animated film in general. The one part in particular that makes it enjoyable, I think, is the abundance of fun and adventure and how they're balanced out in proportion to each-other. It's kind of like Indiana Jones (hence the character of Jake the Kangaroo rat who is kind of a rogue and has the whip and the hat) but better suited for little, little children as well as adults. Every time I watched this movie as a child it made me want to just run around the basement and frolic and wrestle with my brother or cousins. I'm glad you finally watched it man. :) It was a good choice.

    The epic eagle flight scene is burned into my brain from way back then. This and Pokemon The Movie 2000 were childhood inspirations for a story I would write with a giant, majestic bird as a key characters that a protagonist rides. I just had forgotten how early in the movie that scene took place. I also always found it super dark that the poacher kidnapped a kid and was going to kill him. All the epic or dark moments are what I remember about this movie; I had forgotten entirely about the albatross and other goofy things. But Cody is great and makes up for the weaker moments.

    I think one of the things in the first movie was the fact that jenny was an Orphan. I'm not saying the Orphange doesn't care when one of their Kids vanishes, But statistically with Orphans there is a much higher chance for her to have run away. So my guess is that while the Police investigated, they didn't so much treat it as a kidnapping as they did a runaway, which does get a different kind of attention. Plus, and this is a sad fact, NYPD has hundrets of cases each day. Normally in the case of a child dissapearance you would have parents who are constantly demanding updates. but with Orphans, there is a good chance the Pressure wasn't as high, again, not because the Orphanage didn't _care_ but because they were missing the manpower to do that. Like many social instiutions, Orphanages are chronically understaffed.

    I hope you're never stressed by so many recommendations for movies, so I try not to suggest too many at a time.
    For this specific movie, Roald Dahl's The BFG, if you're interested in this one here's what I want to say. There are two versions of this film, the animated movie from 1989, and the live-action remake from 2016. I STRONGLY recommend that you choose to watch the 1989 animation version. Both movies tell the same story, but the original from 1989 does a much better job at telling it. It's free to watch on UA-cam in high definition, and if you can't record a reaction using UA-cam, you could probably purchase or rent it.

    • @Zodia195
      @Zodia195 2 роки тому

      It came RIGHT after The Little Mermaid. I think because it was sandwhich between that movie and Beauty and the Beast, and it wasn't a musical, it got easily overshadowed and that's why it's underrated. I actually prefer this movie to the Little Mermaid because even as a kid, I was critical of movies and while I did like the villain and music more of The Little Mermaid, I felt the main cast was stronger here overall as well as the story and animation. It's funny I was pretty much the target demographic for the Little Mermaid, a 7-year-old little girl, but I HATED Ariel at the time. I am a bit more forgiving but I still am not a fan of hers.

    This is still one of my favorite Theater Viewings of my childhood (the flying scenes were AMAZING on the big screen), and when Disney was considering reconfiguring some of their older films to run on IMAX Screens, this was the one I HYPED for them to do that treatment for.
    However, I also have to tell of my brief friendship with Peter J. Greenwood. He was an artist from Australia, but also worked as a voiceover actor in animation, including RESCUERS DOWNUNDER, though largely in ADR (his voice can be heard as the Radio announcer telling of Cody’s backpack being found and during the airplane scene). I was sharing a review of RESCUERS DOWNUNDER on a FB Animation page in May 2020 and he sent through comments a full-figure drawing of Cody’s mother (particularly special as her face is never seen in the actual film). Touched by this, we “Friended” on FB and while we only had a few conversations, he always came off as a kind man, though tired from all his projects getting postponed due to the pandemic (and we definitely bonded over art).
    Sadly, after too brief an acquaintance, Peter passed away in January 2021 due to COVID complications.
    Rest In Peace, Sir.

    The great tragedy of this movie is that they were introducing some very groundbreaking stuff as far as computer graphic elements and a new coloring system and putting a lot of money into it.

    My only complaint is that Cody isn't an Indigenous Aboriginal Austrailian (forgive me if I'm not up to date on my nomenclature) like the makers wanted. Otherwise, I love this film exponentially more than the first. McLeach and Joanna are one of my favorite Disney villain/sidekick teams, and I'm ashamed it took me until a few years ago to realize Joanna is some kind of moniter lizard.
    I remember I was 4 when this movie came out and I had the fuzzy-flocked Bernard and Bianca Christmas Tree Orniments from McDonalds (and also the tie-in Happy Meal toys which were miniature movie cameras that you could look through and see stills featuring whichever character was on the side of the individual toy)
