JeremiahHOST
And I ought to lose two items.
JeremiahHOST
So I was messing around with Mowgli.
JeremiahHOST
I would now say, like, honestly, I would say I'm, like, 20% into that deck before I made some changes.
JeremiahHOST
Like, you just can never go fast enough against a good player who, as long as they hit their buzzes, arms, they're rolling, and that's that.
JeremiahHOST
So you try the tiggers, you try the bouncing, you try everything that.
JeremiahHOST
So I bumped up to two Mowglis for a while and was just bouncing them with tiggers, trying to take their hand out, take their hand out, take their hand out.
JeremiahHOST
It worked all right.
JeremiahHOST
You can get a few games out of it.
JackieHOST
But yeah, everything just happens very fast.
JackieHOST
And I thought that that was just me thinking, Because I'm watching this scene and I'm like, oh, this is Mowgli as they're sitting and having tea.
JackieHOST
It's in particular the scene where Mowgli is talking to King Louis and he hands him a banana.
JackieHOST
And Mowgli's like, oh, yes, I'll do anything to stay in the jungle because he's eating.
JackieHOST
And we see Arthur do the same thing.
JackieHOST
So I, again, I always thought that this was recycled from the Jungle Book story.
JackieHOST
But really, Mowgli came after.
JackieHOST
But what's really weird to me is that Wart's reactions don't match what Merlin is saying.
ZachHOST
This character took some pointers from like, oh, there's this magician character, Mandrake the Magician.
ZachHOST
There was Zoro and Tarzan and Mowgli.
ZachHOST
That was it, essentially.
ZachHOST
Because at one point, a lot of people don't realize this, but Mowgli had a lot of comics and stuff about his character.
ZachHOST
um he wasn't just kind of confined to the one book uh by uh was that edgar esperos um and the the they created this character back in 1936 okay which is two years before superman And three years before Batman.
ZachHOST
And there is significant inspiration.
Doug WalkerHOST
When no studio wanted to take it on, he started developing it on his own and...
Doug WalkerHOST
Okay, I'm not gonna pretend films like Mowgli were good, but he had a grasp on what the material was about.
Doug WalkerHOST
This feels so far removed from the source material, several people thought the promos were fake AI trailers.
Doug WalkerHOST
I'll admit, Animal Farm is one of my favorite books.
David LeesonNARRATOR
Mr. Kipling, who has done so much to make India more intelligible to the English, has not forgotten to give us pictures of the Aboriginal peoples.
David LeesonNARRATOR
Those who are familiar with his fascinating jungle books will remember the story of the King's Ankus and the weird figure of the little Gond hunter who shot the villager with his feathered arrow for the sake of the jeweled Ankus, and afterwards was found by Mowgli and Bagheera lying in the forest, beaten to death with bamboo rods by a band of thieves who lusted after the same fatal prize.
David LeesonNARRATOR
In The Tomb of His Ancestors, again, we have a vivid sketch of the mountain Beals, whose combination of superstition, courage, and loyalty reminds us of the Scottish Highlanders in the days of Prince Charlie.
David LeesonNARRATOR
These Aborigines of the hills were long neglected by the church, but much is now being done on their behalf.
Josh SpiegelHOST
We're like Baloo and Bagheera, all ourselves.
Josh SpiegelHOST
I don't know who the Mowgli Corollary is going to be, but even though I am younger than you, we're both grown men.
Josh SpiegelHOST
We're wandering out of the man village.
Josh SpiegelHOST
I don't know.
Josh SpiegelHOST
The point is, I recall, I have no doubt, my parents bought that VHS, and I watched it a ton as a kid.
Josh SpiegelHOST
And I think it's interesting upon re-watching it this time, and I've watched it a number of times over the years, even as I grew older, college age and beyond.
Josh SpiegelHOST
And On the one hand, I put in my notes at some point that Mowgli is kind of a drip of a character, which is – I'm sorry.
Josh SpiegelHOST
I said Mowgli is such a drip of a character.
MarkHOST
That's like
TitoHOST
Mowgli.
TitoHOST
He lived with the animals.
MarkHOST
Mowgli was smart enough to wear at least that little red loincloth.
MarkHOST
Roger Kipling gave him
TitoHOST
clothes because he had to, but not because he wanted
Otis GrayHOST
and they said they would.
Otis GrayHOST
Then he said, We'll play Jungle Book, and I shall be Mowgli.
Otis GrayHOST
The rest of you can be what you like, Mowgli's father and mother, or any of the beasts.
Otis GrayHOST
I don't suppose they know the book, said Noel.
Otis GrayHOST
They
Otis GrayHOST
Oswald's first conscious act was to get rid of the white mice.
Otis GrayHOST
I mean, the little good visitors.
Otis GrayHOST
He explained to them that there would be a play in the afternoon, and they could be what they liked, and gave them the jungle book to read the stories he told them to, all the ones about Mowgli.
JakeHOST
Next up, here we go.
JakeHOST
What is the name of the boy in the jungle book? Hmm, what's the name of the boy in the jungle book? Is it A, Mowgli, B, Ravi, or D, Baloo? Mowgli, Ravi, or Baloo? What's the name of the boy in the jungle book? It's A, it's Mowgli.
JakeHOST
Very well done if you got that.
JakeHOST
Don't worry if you didn't.
BrandyPANELIST
I've seen the pictures where they were talking about doing it, and then saying that, you know, they can't show nipples.
BrandyPANELIST
But don't, doesn't Mowgli have nipples?
Jake MayesHOST
Maybe.
BrandyPANELIST
And maybe that's just something-
BrandyPANELIST
in the live action.
Jake MayesHOST
[laughs]
BrandyPANELIST
Right? In the live action, doesn't Mowgli have nipples?
Jake MayesHOST
Jungle nipples.
