Woolie Reitherman - Disney Family Album Part 3

[muppetsstoogesfan1]

can someone please re upload the voices behind the characters

piece of the family album

[m2sciarra]

It's sad that Walt Disney died during The Jungle Book's production but i give thanks to him for letting Woolie to carry on with the film and to keep the Disney studio together so they could make other features like the Aristocats, Robin Hood, Fox and the Hound, the Rescuers and The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh

[TaranWanderer2]

Baloo being alive at the end of "The Jungle Book" pretty much ruined a very beautiful scene for me, in an otherwise rather boring storyline. The same with Chief in The Jungle Book escaping with just a few injuries, because no longer did Copper's wrath seem justified.

Sometimes, I wish they'd been less afraid to tackle death with some characters, as likable as they might have been (which Chief wasn't).

@TaranWanderer2

I wouldn't go that far in Baloo's case, but I agree with what Michael Barrier (who, granted, is kind of impossible to please) said about this scene----that it feels like a chickening out because they reveal Baloo's alive too early. Thus, you're unsure if you're supposed to be touched by Bagheera's eulogizing, or laughing at Baloo's reveling in it, so you're sort of left suspended between the two.

(I still crack up at "I wish my mother coulda heard this," though.)

[TaranWanderer2]

@TaranWanderer2 I meant Chief in "The Fox and the Hound."

AHAHA Title Design by: John Lasseter.

[RetroToledo]

@trollheimer Funny the things you go through first in your career. :-P

Walt Disney's Bambi (Part 3)

[disneyfan85]

I just love "Pinocchio", one of the many movies featured in the final montage here.

[KTChamberlain]

For some reason Sher Kahn's growls at the beginning of this part sound more like a bear, especially if you've listened to the bear in Fox and the Hound

[LiimLsan]

@KTChamberlain They were known to reuse audio quite often during those years...f'r instance, some of the sound effects in Aristocats are taken verbatim from the battered house in Sword in the Stone, as was the storm in Sword in the Stone reused for Blustery Day's rainstorm, as was the Sherriff of Nottingham (who repeats the 'there's something fishy going on aroudn here' twice, the church bells at the end of Robin Hood copied from Cinderella...

No comment on reusing. But woolie did it often.

[KTChamberlain]

Woolie's son, Bruce Reitherman voiced Mowgli in the Jungle Book.

[disneyfan85]

Bruce was also the first voice of Christopher Robin in the Winnie the Pooh cartoons. Bruce only voiced him in "Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree".

[AnimationManiac]

I love the final scene with Hook and the crocodile. It's so funny. Even though Peter Pan is my favorite Disney film.

[chdoyle2007]

Woolie and the rest of the Nine Old Men influenced immeasurably so many of us animators and animation artists. We continue to appreciate them and discuss them and analyze their great work at 'classical hand drawn animation' forum (do a search).

Wolfgang Reitherman: A TRUE MAN OF ACTION

[DLevine94]

At 5:22. Hook looks like a flag with his head. I mean the arms are like the stripes on a flag, the blue sky is the color and Hook's head is the symbol.

LOL!

From 6:13 to 7:20 It Feels lIke A Scene In Just One Movie

[richardxob]

woflgang, mis respetos, mi admiracion...

[Waxonator]

So he's the guy who did all those "villain goes crazy" action sequences. Awesome!

[dulimar]

"Tô cagado..."

[CartoonFan56]

I loved "The Rescuers". Those were some great action scenes. Fantastic stuff. Thanks for posting. Woolie Reitherman must be remembered.

[Marbles471]

Not to change the subject away from Reitherman's work, but out of curiousity I freeze-framed the Rescuers takeoff scene just to see if it was taken from a print that had the infamous topless woman in the window.

Yep. :)

8:35.

[AnimationManiac]

They removed it on the 2003 DVD, which I own.

[Marbles471]

We'll probably never know who put that there or how they managed to sneak it in.  I'd sure love to find out, though.

[zeldabaloney2007]

What year was this recorded?

[systemoperator]

1984.

[disneyfan85]

A year later, Woolie would pass away.

[systemoperator]

True. He will be missed.

[disneyfan85]

They all will.

[systemoperator]

True that.

[TVB90]

Wolfgang is returning. Wolfgang is cool for Disney because Disney is cool for kids & adults. :D

[systemoperator]

Now this is great! A look back at my top favorite artist Wolfgang Reitherman. I thought the day would never come!

[zeldabaloney2007]

The bear died but Tod survived during the final battle in The Fox and the Hound.
