I was so ignorant that I found out "Oh~ it's not a cartoon." Only in the first 10 seconds of the movie did
I realize that there was only one boy in the whole drama. People are playing, and other sets and animals are all technical. No wonder, it is almost comparable to Cameron's "Avatar".
The original book "The Jungle Book", of course, only later learned that the story in the original book makes people more sad and pessimistic, and it is more in line with the characteristics of Walt Disney, "happy ending", "evil can not prevail", "everyone is equal". ", "love", etc.
As the little boy grows up in the forest, the dry season of the so-called Peace Rock exposed allows everyone to share peace.
In the story, I felt the shadow of "The Lion King" countless times, the same animal world, the same revenge for the father, the same fire, and the end of a rain. Well, I have to mention that The Lion King was the gateway to my love of animated films. Although I have seen countless animated films over the years, the memory of this film is as deep as recognizing that my mother is a mother.
In the story, fire is called a red flower, and I think this fire implies human civilization. Humans do not belong to the jungle world, and the god who created this world is an elephant (this setting should also be derived from an ancient legend, although no strong proof has been found). Wisdom and courage, defeat the tiger, and integrate the individual into the big environment of the jungle...
The story is set, in addition to everyone's beliefs, gods exist: elephants, as well as evil tigers, eerie snakes (probably derived from Eve Adam of the Bible), wolves nursing little boys, black panthers taking little boys into the jungle, cumbersome and clever bears, gorillas playing soy sauce, and of course all kinds of tiny animals. Having said so much, it is like the various settings in Crazy Zoo to enrich the animal world, but the world lacks a kind of humanity. I think it's the lack of some obvious fauna character shaping. Of course, the world of forests cannot be measured by a human society.
Regarding the thinking of this movie, in addition to the invasion of primitive forests by human civilization, there is also the existence of the elephant god. When God moved trees again, diverted rivers, and exposed Peace Rock, no matter the dry season or the wet season, the peaceful age has come.
