The Jungle Book

[poliphilo]

Bill Murray was born to play Pooh and the CGI realisations of E.H. Shepherd's drawings are fabulous but I don't remember there being anything in the book about Christopher Robin setting the 100 Acre Wood on fire.

And- really- that was a very drastic way of taking the bounce out of Tigger.

I had no intention of going to see this, but you make it sound more interesting than I had anticipated!

It has a certain interest. And technically it's amazing.

Please understand I'm not recommending it. Frankly I think it's the most frightful cack.

If they put Pooh in the Jungle Book I will most certainly NOT go to see it. I loved that story. I love the Just So Stories as well. Damn and Blast.

What they've done is sort of turn Baloo into Pooh- honey fixation and all. And Mowgli is this cute little Christopher Robinish kid...
