TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

Yeah, right. Hey everyone and welcome to the NERDY of North Podcast, the NERDY podcast, also by True North and North Sam. And I'm another host Paul and we are joined by what we can call now, Team Podcast. So yeah.

So yes, so this is basically the first podcast, well not the first podcast, but the first podcast since we launched the live charity stream that we get in there last weekend, which was absolutely phenomenal. And we've decided to try and keep actually a core group together that's been on before and actually people will like and find a bit interesting. So yeah, so we're going to have not just guests now, but actually a core group of people which you'll probably recognize and we've got two lovely people joining us this evening, which I'll let them introduce themselves. Who's one first?

Hello, I'm Michaela and I am a basically here because I am a big movie nerd and Sam's assistant. And to be fair, you were going to be on this one. Oh yeah, I thought he was like, I am doing this one. The miniatures on this, that was it.

And really because of the pandemic and stuff, I don't get things I'm just going to do. So this is kind of our little gadget. The other lovely guest is I'm Charlotte. He's got to be faced by now.

I've been on loads recently. As soon as I saw the topic for tonight, I was like, that's mine. I'm in. I'm in.

I'm in. I'm in for this one. It's almost like we're battling people to actually come on. I was like, these folks are going to fight.

We're going to do like a mad max done to do that. That's somebody. So yeah. Yes.

So everyone else in no, I know you probably already know about this, but we've seen the title of the video today. It's top five Disney animation movies. So we thought we'd kick off the happy season with Christmas coming upon us with our favorite Disney films because, to be honest, who doesn't love Disney film? And it always, and they always show the same, but not the same ones, but most Disney films do get shown around Christmas time.

So thought it'd be a great start to talk about love and passion of Disney films. And again, before we start getting into it, we'll let Sam do a little display. And then forget we just got two. Two, one on within the first hour that it was never going to happen.

So before we get into this week's episode, I just want to make it clear that everything that we talk about in this episode is our own opinions and I was alone. And if you disagree with them, and that's fine. Come and join us on Facebook, join us in the comments and just give us, you know, let us know your thoughts and feelings, but do not come for us with the fact that we are wrong. We can always agree to disagree in Fandoms and we want to keep it all fun, keep it kind, and keep toxic behavior out of nerdism.

So with that being said, let's start with the Disney top five. Yes, so again, sorry to jump back a little bit. Again, I just want to thank everyone so much for last week. It was a bit of an emotional role of course, when we got through it.

And again, I know I've been hitting careers on everyone and anyone that's basically been involved with last week. I've never experienced anything like me in my life. And it was again one of the most special days I've had in a long time. So thank you so much for that.

Have we told people the final, final total? No, I think it was on the Facebook group. Yeah, so we raised 550 pounds for Willows cat sanctuary. So the kittens, it's going to go to a lot of good causes.

I know when I messaged the Willows about which they sent a very nice message and told us a list of things that basically the things that was going to go towards, which again blew me away and it's going to do a lot of good. So that's something I'm very pleased with. And again, you used to and Sam, who we're massively involved with all the again, kind of thank you's enough. And even like say the messages of support and actually there's so many interesting things that we don't actually, I can't even get over like my killer squares.

Your quiz was a big hit mind. There's a bit of pat. Actually, I owe you an apology as well, my killer. So you were right and I was wrong.

Oliver and company was, but everybody's all not Brad kris wingsing and I told you. I'm a very John. I'm very tired of everything. So yeah, so I was completely wrong with that.

So yeah, how can you do is that? It's a bit perot, I mean. I'm very good he's rock. So yeah, massive, massive.

Thank you to everyone who was involved in the charity podcast. It was incredible. We had a lot of fun. It was on the morning after it was like, wait in a wrong Christmas morning.

Like it was on the amount of messages I think that are present. So I was happy. And are we going to kick this off? Yeah.

So again, as we're killing was the one who called deeps first and said, she wanted to go first. So we'll give it a start point. Yeah. So I'm going to do a little speech.

Right. I am not many things that I can like talk about a lot on these. There's a few things that I love. And really we've talked about that was like true crime and what was your long video?

And what was it? It's a point in movies. Yeah. It was like movie do you love it?

Anyway, but Disney is my absolute favorite. I love Disney movies. I we mean, I'm got brought up on them. All my time.

So I was very like eighties course person that now I was how was Disney toys. Only like I had barbies most of me barbies were Disney barbies like ridiculously girly stuff, which is not really me. But like absolutely loved it. Like me and Sam had the absolute privilege of having parents who like were asked to take us to Disneyland.

Like it's just in bedded in our childhood. And when I got 33 now and I'm still like, love Disney, like absolutely obsessed. So I'm talking to the right people. I completely get that as well.

Because I got engaged to my wife at Disney Land Paris. We went for it. We went for it. And I'm Florida.

Yeah, Disney is life. And I will probably go through it with a different feeling. I know there are massive corporations. I know like they have very problematic.

I know something we're going to talk about. But I am going to say it was absolute like roasted glasses. I know. But my first choice and I picked this one and Sam will know exactly because I was like, I'm going this one first because I imagine Jesus at the same.

Most Disney films obviously childhood. This one came to me when I was what? Twenty seven and it is Moana. Yeah, I was going to do a big soul for mine as well.

Well, you just got that from me. Now if you want to take a moment away. But I was there. Yeah.

So Moana, I think we just watched it. Maybe even at Christmas. I think it was probably one of the first time I'd say. It wasn't like we went the pictures series because obviously twenty seven, you know, no children.

And I just absolutely love the story. Yeah. Best Polynesian princess to which is just so lovely. I've just like having the representation.

Music is done by people. But mainly what people would know is that it's done by Lin Manuel Miranda, who is the is there's no one else. I'm sure you all do is the guy is Royal Hamilton and other things. And just the music, the voices, the stories, the animation, it's beautiful.

The rock makes his prize with honestly got everything that is gonna make scribe. Don't what someone who picks up on someone else. I'll say I'll cry. Did it?

I'm all. But yeah, it's just a beautiful and there is there is like a classic musical section. But there's me, which is what like the night is like, I think I need an idea. And then it kind of teed it off.

And when a picture, I know because I just took that took the rain. And when Moana came along, I was like, this is this is classical. It was I think with not the actual pixel on the Disney ones, the storytelling kind of like went a bit like and the kind of went kind of like and all we had this argument before. I thought Frozen was just me just for a song.

But Moana was made with absolute passion and so much love in that as well. Again, even like the characters in the breeze to you. Like I'm out of the rock. I think he's got charisma to die for.

But he was born to play like just like even if there was a live action, don't recast. It was one of my picks as well. I could not not pick this and I had a feeling I have a feeling mine and my killers might be incredibly similar. Yeah.

Incredibly similar. And this one, like the music, I have the soundtrack playing all the time. Like we always used to go to Sunday at lunch at my mums when nothing when he was still living at home. And anytime we had the one we were doing the dishes, it's the first thing that went on.

And we just pranced around with the sound track to Moana. And the voice actors are in it amazing. I've watched the making of it by the doing all the recordings. And just watching Lin-Manuel Miranda coach the rock through your welcome.

Makes me ball my eyes out. Yeah. I think the rock is on where like he embraced that as well because it's been like the YouTube videos. I take talk videos where he's sitting up with his daughter and stuff.

Oh my God. And it's just absolutely. I love how his daughter enters a believe it's him either. Yes.

That's not you. That's not you. So cool. She's adorable.

She's got them beautiful blue eyes as well. She's so cute. And but the whole thing itself, like it's you can't get bored of it. No.

It's not one of those films I could ever get bored of. I love the crowd, all the dreamt kind of things. Shh. So, so I was actually planning.

I'm not doing this out of Cynthia or anything. I mean, I was planning on having a child at some point in my life. And the Moana soundtrack was going to be the beat me birthed in. The whole soundtrack.

So by the time it got to giving birth, I'd be like, where are you from? Shining. And then the time you're on. I don't you're singing like that when you're going through the first time.

I was like, the planet. I had like, you know, the whole your welcome set up. But like, you know, you're welcome for this. Like people of the world and then shiny words because I'm from China.

And that was going to be the last song. The first book. Yeah. I thought that was funny.

And I had to share it. I couldn't not share it. I'm here. Um, what are you doing with the camera?

Oh, I've just shut the door because the dogs just came in. So hey, Daddy. Here we go. He's going to sit.

Yeah. Big birds. Big birds. I don't know.

What we found, we're doing a Disney podcast. We'll need animals. Like furry animal sidekicks. Oh, I'm a little tea podcasty.

You like it with a big one. I'll put them on the next one as well. Oh, little diner. Look at his face.

Money looks well and dirty pissed off. I'm not going to live with it. So yeah, my one was my pick and I'll say it's my first pick. So I think I'm just feeling.

Um, no, just if you've never seen it, say it. It's a brilliant film. Um, I think I did. I really did like frozen animal protein that probably as before it.

And it kind of just got like a mint reception. Like people didn't really fully embrace it. And yeah. And um, I could just like, they're doing lots of like stage musicals and I'd like to be a stage musical completely.

Yeah. Yeah. Oh, I would actually, I would actually, like, I know the Disney's one for the, like, the whole live action thing about the thing. I wouldn't mind saying a live action.

No one on other certain ones. I think it might not work. But I would want to say them with the actual cast because, you know, the young girl who does my one is voice. She could quite easily jump into that role.

Oh, she's amazing. The grandma, the voice of the grandma. Oh, God. Yeah.

That is. So do you know what Thor? I can rock. You know, um, Jeff Goldham's sidekick that he has.

Oh, that's her. Yeah. The guy who does that dad's voice is Boba Fett. Yeah, yeah.

No, yeah, I knew that one. The guy, the woman who does it. I'm a is Nicole Schozinger. The chicken is Alan Schurik.

That is, you know. The chicken. If it ever came to see it, she just Alan Schurik in the corner. It just is.

The cast of the voice actors could work as a live action as well. It would translate over. Yeah. I think I would do it as well.

I think actually the feeling of the vibe that I get from the film is I was, um, I came to Moana a long time after it came out because I don't think the advertising that well. Um, I mean, I saw the trends and stuff. It didn't really grab us. And the niece Violet, um, she was obsessed with it.

And she was all scared to get on the table from London in a little Essex voice was, I want to watch Moana. So, I'm going on. I absolutely adore it. It was absolutely one thing to say.

Something like, I remember it's one of me, it wasn't me top five, um, because I'm more old school Disney. Well, this was, this is my favorite Disney film. Like of all time, this is my favorite Disney film. And it was going to be me last pick.

I knew she would have it in there though. Like, I really do. I knew she would. I honestly, I could write with Keelas Liss' Phara.

Oh, yeah. You'll know. I'm really pretty cool. I'm really pretty cool.

So, uh, lovely Charlotte to take away. Uh, so mine aren't in any particular order. I just, I can't pick in the number one. Um, so my first, so my first one, uh, was released in 1998.

And it features, it was Eddie Murphy's debut as a voice actor. Oh, yeah. And it is, it's Moana. Yeah, it's Moana.

Moana, we'll shoot. Um, have you got a little bit of a line of my picks? Uh, Moana is particularly special, I think, to me anyway. Um, because me, my dad's a massive Disney fan, like we grew up on Disney like you was, um, and we grew up with Disney Princesses.

And Moana was the first Disney princess, my mom was born in Hong Kong. So she was the first Disney princess who looked like my mom. She looked like me. She looked like my sister.

Um, and we went to see it. Uh, I went to see it. I think I went to see with the school of the old audience in Newcastle. And it was just, it was amazing.

Like, I know it's like full of like really, really dated stereotypes and that stuff now. But like at the time, two thousand, what full visit? Yeah. Yeah.

Like at the time seeing it was like, she looks like me. There's a princess, it looks like me. It was just, yeah, it was amazing. No, no, without, without the game, I know it turns.

So yeah, I'll never exceed you. So I'll never know what you've got that feeling is for you. So that is really, really special to actually something that you can relate to and bring back and say, right? I've been represented in a way that I've not been before.

And that's something so no one can ever take away from you as well. So that's amazing thing. I remember, like, um, when it's like my first visit when I went to Arizona and Florida, the dude in, um, I tried to think where it was because it wasn't magic. I wasn't, I wasn't magic kingdom, but I think it was Hollywood Disney.

There's a Pixar's place. And then going into like a studio where they show you how to make the films and stuff like that. And you're sitting in a little auditorium. So you think you've got to get like a college professor, and all the videos around it was like new shoe, run around to cause and shit.

And talk years ago about how the artist drew him and how he went from page and like all the different things. And it was so interesting. I saw how he'd go from like one point, because at one point he was like a fuck brain dragon and then turned into this energetic little red fire, like the most annoying, well, any Murphy. Again, like I said, the last bit, you can't help up from it.

It's got that magic type thing. Yeah. Yeah, we've done that experience with former KL report when we were there, it was the Lion King. Oh, with it.

Yeah, it was the Lion King. So it was the same place. I know exactly what you mean. I can picture it.

I can picture the sitting down, but it was the Lion King that we saw. But yeah, and Michaela loves this. Michaela makes this difference between me and Michaela. She can throw stuff away and I can't.

So anything that she throws away, generally comes in my direction. I still. I can't throw it away. She used to make space.

I'm working on the get it. And I still have. Have you got me? I've got me.

You've been here somewhere. I know. I know. Sorry.

Go ahead. I think Mr. Still got, um, oh, my mom and dad is not got the Mulan, like it was a Barbie. And when you pulled the string, and I back I had one and we were born.

And when you were like, when you were like, you know what I mean? You could wipe the makeup off of my face. Like it went white, um, and like actually, uh, dress changed and stuff. I had a Barbie though on my line.

From everything I'm going to talk to, I'll tell you what Barbie I have. Cause I had loads. But yeah, I think, um, obviously the songs will go back to me. I know people love Shrek and I, but he is that voice with that character.

It's brilliant. And I know we always remember to the donkey, but really good. Um, I've always been. I've always been with one of my choices.

I wrote down some of the names of just, um, B.D. Wong, um, Harvey, Fysine, Edie Murphy, Mingna, Win, so that's really wrong. Minna Wen is the only one who's been a Disney princess. She was in Star Wars and she was in the M.C.

She was in the future. She was in the future. So she was, yeah, yeah. So she's like breaking boundaries and taking names.

I'm going to be seeing her again at the end of this month in the Chicago Bora. Yep. Oh, sorry. It was the month that we were interested.

It was the month that we were interested, wasn't it? Yes, that was where she started. But yes, she's just going to take a bigger role in the book before. It's definitely, definitely.

Yeah, she's going to, like, this is, I know she's already a big star, but this is going to put her out there into, like, superstar and next, I think. If you didn't think she was big from Marvel's or she's like, Marvel's agents or something like that. Yeah, whatever it was called. It's not kind of anymore, but she was still part of the M.C.U.

Um, she's also just amazing. She's not a woman, it's like, in her 50s. Oh, in her 50s. It's a take a shell go.

Oh, I don't even get me started. Don't want to get me started. I could honestly, I couldn't take my eyes off her and Chantje. Brilliant.

It's done. Can we just, um, talk about stuff I haven't seen. Sorry. And go back to Milan, how good the music is in it.

Everybody knows a Milan song and guarantee it's probably Girl with Faking for or I'll make a man out of you. Yeah, make a man out of you. It's the one that, yeah. Yeah, and it was done in the last one too, wasn't it?

Yeah, my best friend got married a couple of years ago. And I, um, sorted out a head night. And we went to the time-time cinema, which I don't go to now, but it's for a reason. And we watched Milan, actually hammered and watched Milan.

And the guy who worked there was like, I'm, the guy who worked in the room and had like, look after us was like, I am so happy. It's not dirty, it's not dirty. I just saw relieved, that was such a good night. Like, you couldn't have not picked that feeling for her.

Yeah, it's me, best friend, Nick Leis. Like, I think it's okay, it's a good thing. Yeah. But that's a good thing that you mentioned that.

That's like, that's the stand out for me, my memories with Disney is the songs as well. It's the ones that break your heart. It's the ones that make you the joyous and stuff. And I would like, if he's happy to move on, or if he's not, anything, want to mention it to bring up my next pick.

One tiny thing I want to mention is I vividly remember watching the trailer. And the trailer's really dark, you know, and she's like, giving the train a head over her head. And then I just remember being like, oh, like, be on the side. It's just so yeah.

And I'm sorry. I'm just, I vividly remember, because that came out night, year, I was being like nine, nine, ten, I think. I remember that. And I just remember, it's probably one of the first Disney kind of like, I remember like vividly, like being like, I need to see this.

We must have found the pictures to see this. We went and got, I saw it in Florida. I don't know if you were. I was with you there.

Yeah. So we saw it in Florida. And back then, you got it like six months or something before the year. That's right.

That's right. So like, seen an idyll. Yeah. Because we saw the second Austin powers before everyone else.

I feel like I saw your segue. So go ahead. Oh, no, no. Any stories are going to be a perfect.

I don't know. I don't know. But don't. Thanks.

You need me to fill it in. Then you can join it. Then you can jump in. That's fine.

I don't know exactly where we're going to go. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

I'm changing things. But I've been changing them within the last hour before the podcast started. So again, I know it's probably straighten a little bit, but I do have that up as well. So anyone picks mine.

I'm doing a curve. Yeah. It just that. It just that.

It just that. I'm not going to do that one. No. Yeah, quite like that.

But this one, it's my favorite of a Disney song. So it involves, like, it brings so many different smiles. It's not one of the old ones. Well, it's way because Disney films are, it's probably is old.

But I still think about it as new. So it's kind of 1994. And I'm going to sing it. So I've got to line it up.

So yes, this is just for you to use. And I did say that everyone has to sing on this podcast. I think a few years ago about it. So I've got a little think of it.

So that's not worked. It's not worked. Sorry. Yeah.

I'm going to be a mighty king. So let me be where? Well, I've never seen a king of beasts with tigers. A little hare.

I'm going to be the main event. Black and white before. I'm brushing up. I'm looking down.

I'm working on my raw. That's fucking sick. Oh my god. Yes.

So they're equal. I've generally told them I should be laughing at you. But no. No, no, no.

It should be laughing at us. But yes. I said I thought we'd have a laugh and thought I'd try. It was something that silly.

So yes, the Lion King. Again, I'm not more old school when it comes to Disney films. Like I'll go back to my childhood. Like all the ones I love.

All the ones I'm watching. But let me say I've got an old parent's hat. You said you could watch all the old ones. And if I was being naughty or quiet, it used to be second on Snow White or something like that.

And I never used it really. Because that's how I was born. Yeah, it's pretty much. I like to say, but I was like, talking on these little boys.

But yes. But yeah. I've got a lot of things going somewhere. I've got a few of your mouse's.

But I'm not. I said this was one, as I said, when it comes out of the news, Disney films, like I saw classic You in the Beast, Little Mermaid, as New Year Disney. Especially for- Only 30 years older. Yeah.

Yeah. I can still remember going to pictures to see them, buying them on VHS when they first came out. But when I saw the Lion King for the first time, I was absolutely overwhelmed. That's the visuals, the visuals, the colors, the characters in it as well.

Like I've got some of the saddest scenes you'll ever see. I know Disney do sad really well. Like I'll be able to be a parent in a Disney film because I know it wouldn't last that long. And I'd like to say when the Kill, like the same as Father Mafasta and like Scar, Jeremy Irons, but absolutely scenes dealing and actually two in scenes, definitely.

And as the most violent, so Dr. Villan, that thing he just draws you in. You can't help it. Yeah.

You can't help it. You can't help it. Sorry for a lot of times, but I can say, and the hyenas, I can't be Goldberg as a hyena. It's absolutely amazing.

And hello, some likes to say the little turn up the end when the old turn on Scar, as well as... LAUGHTER It's quite sinister and scary as well. But even the pride of themselves, and then you get coated like Timon and Pumbaa. And like cool, and it's filled with just, there's only one bit that makes it, I think that kind of makes us feel a bit awkward if it's basically the song when Simba and Nala are getting it on.

It's about to get it on. I don't know. I didn't really need that in a Disney film, but I can understand why they had it in. But yeah, it's close to a perfect cartoon film.

I was like, there's not much I would complain about for it. Yeah, it's not my top five, but it is. You said Carton film. I think it's called a perfect film.

It is perfection. Like apart from maybe the seductive eyes of Nala. LAUGHTER But the animations, the songs, the voices, I will say it, I'll give it a little bit off because I don't know why. Actually, I do know why.

I hate Matthew Broder and I don't think he's a good Simba. LAUGHTER And I hate him because he killed people. This is what you know. LAUGHTER Right?

LAUGHTER This one, when I was doing the talk, I was just texting me down the other week and this one was on my dad's list. He adores this film. It's not my top five, but it's definitely my top 10. And it was actually on me back up list.

And for me, it's just memories of watching it with my dad and animation. My dad's favourite scene in it is when Simba is running back to Pride Rock. And it's just the music and him running. It's like, you can see his legs running.

When you see his legs running and then in the background, it's like the full lion running back. Like, I could watch that over and over again just for the animation. But it is probably one of Disney's more perfect films. Yeah.

So never going to lie back to you. I'm being terrible. I mean, come on. Visually?

Visually, it was stunning. It really was. I was expecting high expectations for this because Jungle Book. We really love Jungle Book.

I don't like the Disney animated Jungle Book. I kind of bided. But we went to see the live action one. It was absolutely different.

It was incredible. Honestly, one of my favourite live action Disney films I bought was a maze. So when I saw the lion king, I was like, this is going to be the same. The cast vote was unbelievable.

The managers just didn't... The voices were just flat. They were just sounding like a board. Even James L.

Jones just sounded like he was just... They sounded like they were just reading from a script. Yeah. And I love John Oliver as well.

But I was just talking about it. I was like, please, just getting bored. That's another fun play. Yeah.

And you have one of the best musical scores with lyrics. There's a reason why it's the one of the best seagulls we've been still to the day. And you've got... Nah, I'm going to like start these songs and do something a bit different.

Yes, because Tim Ryser and John go totally wrong. Yeah. If it is, bro, don't fix it. Be prepared.

The song Be Prepared is one of the best moments in the animation. It is absolutely amazing. And then it was like... It was like two evenings in the live action.

And it was just like, what are you doing? It was just short about, like, really... Me and a killer have many drunk nights together where we end up starting with the short tunes. And then we get into a bit of Disney and be prepared.

We would just sit at the top of our lungs. Very drunk version. And again, how many Disney films got we with a far short as well? And you still have to do it?

Yeah. I'm going to stay downwind. I'm really faulty and I still laugh at that. A lot.

Up there somewhere. The hula, pumbar in the hula, I don't know. I'll have it. But now you can feel the feel.

How can you, like, go from back to death? Like, that's the scene where he's lying and he pushes the paw. Oh, God, do it. I'm like, no, I'm saying.

It's the saddest, most beautiful thing in the animation. Do you know why that's so sad, though? I can't remember what the vice-class call should do as young is in that. Yeah.

So it was about a month before the record of that, his dad actually died. Wow, I didn't know that. And I've read something about it somewhere. And he said, I don't know if I can do it.

You might have to get somebody else to stand in. And they said, no, whatever you're feeling, put it in that scene. Yeah. And that's why it's so.

Oh, I just made it even more. Even today, I'm like. I'm trying to think, because I think this was the second time that they use computer-generated images again, the start of it with viewing the bass. It wasn't in the scene.

But when they use the buffaloys coming down the hill, that was the first and second time that they used the start playing about with computer- variations. But I'd say that all the scene, from start of the finish, we even joined around with the cast. I can see when Ruby sat on the sore phone, Diana's like, jumping up to it all. This is going to do it.

We do the same thing. We can blow that. And I love that meme. That's someone in a Disney store got the two lines scarring in the back.

I thought it was one of the top one kind of an offer to get someone to get a dark sense of humor in that Disney shop. That's not the reason. Oh, I'm a Disney Shummer. It's gone now.

Yeah, I've got London to go into Disney shop for the best. No, I'm not. My mum's watching into it. Well done, Charlotte.

Just kill the mood. At least just I made it sound. To be fair to Disney, there's going to be dark and sad more. Never Disney found where to be throughout.

No, at least it's not me pointing to this stuff out, because I normally have to play with objects. I've already had a Crying Master's before, and I'm talking about my lance in our thanks on Crying. We love Charlotte's mum. Yes, so that's my first pick there.

So we'll have to pick up. I miss my turn because Michaela picked one of mine, and I'm not like you. I didn't do back ups. And Charlotte stole Michaela's second.

So we are back to Charlotte. Oh, right. My second one, Sam just mentioned actually released in 1967. It was re-released in 1993 when it was remastered, and that's when I asked for it.

And my first ever trip to pictures with my dad. It's got the soundtrack as well. It's got one of the first Disney songs I ever learned, and ever remembered when I was four. And I was like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

It's the Jungle Book. Ah, yes. I really don't like this. I just don't like it.

I really don't like it. And that is one of them. I just had some punch movement in the face. You're not watching it because of Mobley.

But he is going to kill it. He's right there. I love how they use characters from this film and loads of different things from the Jungle Book as well. This scene is stolen straight out of the Jungle Book that couple in Robin Hood, where they just changed the best.

When it was made of downstairs, but this is one of my first ever, like, it's not me five. I thought I would get picked. But this was one of the first days in front of the Live of Watch, and I was obsessed with it. I was like, she was terrifying how sinister he was.

I loved the Jungle Book as well. But he's terrifying in the Live Action one. My God. I had never felt intensity like it when he was on the screen.

It was a good job. Oh, my Lord. He was on the middle. It was me and a little kid.

He was like, we were parabas. We were parabas. We were just like, hiding. There's a hyper-l Oh, see?

Yeah, it's really good. I think that's fine with it. I know we're killing some of the dragons, but I really like that. Let's keep it up.

I thought her voice was perfect for us. I just don't know why I don't like the... I don't know why did you all that love it? Good question, Vikilla.

It was probably the first Disney film I saw. It's the first one I remember saying. And again, my dad's love for it, because King Louis, who was based on Louis Armstrong, is one of my dad's favourites. We're still to this day.

If we're all Rami Mams and somebody goes, what do you want to do? Somebody else will go, I don't know. What do you want to do? I want to be like you.

It was Ben's song. That's the song I sang all over. That thing, like, John Although has some of the most iconic songs I can't accept by the necessities of life. And again, you say this thing when he's chilling in the pool and Morgan's accent when he's running, I do that in the bath.

I suppose I used to think about it. I was just thinking about the blue chillin' about. I love how he likes it. I just said he got spin-off as well.

He got teals spins, which was in the mia's and cardoondia's, like, of the Paris festival. From, yeah, to the blue. Oh, I do not know that. And I was so, I love teals spin as well.

It was Phil Harris's first Disney film as well. So Phil Harris was going to do a little John. He was Thomas Ormally. Without the jungle group, we wouldn't have got that.

I feel like the 1970s was very experimental. I think they were in a decline at that time. And I think the one getting like Disney loved the fantasy Cinderella shine, you know, like that. And then obviously he wasn't around in the 70s.

And I think because the hat cheapened everything down, even in the 60s too. And I think they were a bit more experimental. So it was like, let's do jazz music. Like let's do, you know, the jungle group was actually the last animated film that won't Disney all that's all.

Oh, really? Right. So. That's quite interesting.

But again, I could watch the jungle group, but the cardoond, any time. I don't think I would ever get bored of it as well. Like the characters are interesting. I still get sad when, like, I can say, the game receives more week off to the thing and finally leaves and what you understand is why.

But yeah, I, I, um, our eyes as well, like, our work is absolutely brilliant. Like the characters I remember drawing, blue and exhibit gear when I was a kid and trying to perfect it, but never quite getting like to the lines right and stuff. And but it was always been dream that I was one of the first ones I watched. I thought I want to be like, work for Disney.

I want to be like an animator when I was a kid. But I didn't quite work out what it is now. That was one of mine. That was me.

And it's funny because if you actually like looking at history of animation, it just makes you feel like it's really fun. It's all copy, it's all copy, right? It's like, you can see the scenes and just change their heads and stuff. No, you just feel like you feel like, uh, it's my partner's an animator.

It doesn't work for Disney, clearly. But, um, there's like, famously, like, uh, no unions, copy it. Very little, I think people think animation, you like, get paid. Like, it's a very, like, yeah.

Especially like when you're Disney picks up, you're a team of hundreds. Hundreds, yeah. And pick, like, it looks so fun though. Like the picturesque studios look like the best place I've ever had with it.

It's a lot. One of them hundreds who worked as a Disney animator was Mela Zempatrick. She, who, who, you know who Mela Zempatrick is? Cause you read about her.

And she did the creature. She did the model. She created a creature. She did the model for everything concept art.

She worked as a Disney animator because it was so easy to get in there because you were just never seen. Like, because it was so many of them, she just kept walks in. It takes a seat and just starts her on. And I have a very good friend who has been and done a few works with Pixar.

And he's, he's not allowed to show inside, you can show the reception area and it just, it looks magical. Really magical. Cool. So very good.

So I'm glad that you're moving. Got to mention that was always, I was, one of the ones I was worried about leaving out. I wouldn't have been upset. I'm not the biggest fan really.

But when I was thinking it's like, if we had like all the time, like 12, I'm on a marathon. Like, like, like a lot of people. Yeah. I'm sorry.
