bu. Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 (edited) I take it you didn't see the Yungle Book? right? The Jungle Book was awesome! I didn't think it would be but it really did justice to the cartoon but it wasn't an exact copy either. Like it stands amazing on its own. And I'm sure this will too. Disney has been on point with this cgi remakes! I'm actually excited for Beauty & the Beast. Jarryl - watch the Jungle Book. It's worth it, I promise Edited February 18, 2017 by Dammn Bu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidfresh832 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I have liked the Live action Remakes so far. Jungle Book was prob the best so far. It proved that Lion King should def be possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kidfresh832 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Mulan could be epic. Lil Mermaid would be a difficult one to get right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
