Since our hosts have seen three Disney movies called "The Jungle Book" let's start by clarifying that yes, this is a theatrically released sequel to the 1967 animated classic, made thirty-six years after the original. And much like the other animated sequels of this era, it's basically the same movie all over again in reverse. Quite literally, this is the story of Mowgli returning to the jungle and singing The Bare Necessities ad nauseum before a confrontation with the blood-thirsty Shere Khan. It's a bold-faced cash grab more than it is a movie, but at least it provokes some interesting discussion from our hosts as to how far (or not far) the company has come.
