as much as the original 1967 Jungle Book will always be my favorite Disney movie..... I would pay anything to get THIS version of Disney's Jungle book being more dark and gritty as the original books were..
I fucking love "Song of the Seeonee." it totally fits the spirit of the original book. It's a song I'll find myself singing on the trail, guaranteed. As a bushman.
"The Song of the Seeonee" sounds like something The Weavers would have sung. This makes sense, as Terry Gilkyson once did a song with them and he was a folksinger.
Bill Peet, Disney's veteran story artist, was the original screenwriter for "The Jungle Book", as he did for both "101 Dalmatians" & "The Sword in the Stone". Bill Peet began his career with Disney when production for their first full-length animated motion picture "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" was near completion in the late 1930s; the film was released on December 21, 1937. Peet also served the story adaptation for Disney's 2nd animated feature "Pinocchio" (1940), though uncredited, and was an "in-betweener" for the Donald Duck cartoons. After almost going over the cuckoo's nest by seeing nothing but Donald Duck here, and Donald Duck there, Peet almost quit the studio but came back after forgetting his jacket, only to find an envelope from Walt Disney saying that he had been promoted to the story department. From the late 1930s to the early 1960s, Bill Peet was involved in all of Disney's classic films, including "Song of the South" (1946), "Cinderella" (1950), "Alice in Wonderland" (1951), and "Peter Pan" (1953). But his big break with Disney occurred when he solely wrote the story for the 1960 animated short film "Goliath II", which he originally intended to publish as 1 of his books in his subsidiary career as a children's author. Narrated by the OG Winnie the Pooh, Sterling Holloway, like a handful of other Disney shorts beforehand, "Goliath II" was nominated for an Academy Award for "Best Animated Short". The cartoon's success was followed a year later when Disney's 17th full-length animated motion picture "101 Dalmatians" was released, the first animated Disney feature Bill Peet wrote/storyboarded all by himself. An adaptation of English author Dodie Smith's 1956 children's novel of the same name, she had been hoping that Walt Disney would adapt her book into another one of his blockbusters. Bill Peet would even send her some of his sketches for the movie, to which Smith praised and told him that he had improved her story, saying his version was better than hers. Released on January 25, 1961, "101 Dalmatians" was a commercial/critical success, pulling the House of Mouse out of its financial slump caused by their 1959 animated feature "Sleeping Beauty", which Peet did additional story. After "101 Dalmatians", the 9 Old Men and 2 other Disney animators, Ken Anderson & Marc Davis, spent many excruciating months trying to adapt the verse play "Chantecler", titled "Chanticleer", with real storyboards, new songs and large paintings. And just like "101 Dalmatians", they tried to take the satirical tale of "Chanticleer" and place it in a more contemporary setting. Bill Peet was the only person in the House of Mouse who showed no interest in the "Chanticleer" project. He criticized it, & decided to work on his own project, a rather lighthearted take on the King Arthur legend which other animators and even Walt Disney liked more than "Chanticleer"; Peet's project later became "The Sword in the Stone", Disney's 18th full-length animated motion picture, released on December 18, 1963 in the UK, & December 25 (Christmas Day), 1963 in the US. Although it was another box office success for Disney, "The Sword in the Stone" was not as successful as "101 Dalmatians", receiving mixed reviews from critics. Bill Peet suggested to Walt Disney that the next animated film be English novelist Rudyard Kipling's classic 1894 story "The Jungle Book", saying that the animators can do more interesting animal characters. Funny enough, "The Jungle Book" first caught Walt's eye back in the late 1930s, same with "The Sword in the Stone". But he wouldn't acquire the film rights until 1962, a year after he acquired the rights to English author/playwright A.A. Milne's classic "Winnie the Pooh" stories. Also, after the disappointment of "The Sword in the Stone", Walt Disney got more involved in the production for "The Jungle Book", which started this sort of clash of egos between him & Peet. As the film's original songwriter Terry Gilkyson wrote a dark and mysterious song score, Bill Peet wanted to be faithful to Rudyard Kipling's book while creating a dark, dramatic and sinister approach; Kipling's book was a series of episodic adventures that had Mowgli go back and forth between the jungle and the man village. The idea of Mowgli leaving the jungle and returning to the man village was a complete idea of originality by both Bill Peet and Walt Disney. It also served as the anchor that Walt and his story team returned to whenever they struggled with writing the film. Peet continued to add dramatic details to Kipling's story. In his version, the character of King Louie, king of the monkeys and apes, was less comical and he shares a plot point borrowed from Kipling's sequel novel "The Second Jungle Book", a hidden treasure under the ruins. And the film's original ending features an evil hunter from the man village named Buldeo forcing Mowgli by gunpoint to lead him to King Louie's treasure. The ending was also a lot darker than the ending we know came to be, involving Buldeo getting killed by Shere Kahn, followed by Mowgli killing Shere Kahn with Buldeo's rifle. In retrospect, that version of the film would've been so great! Walt Disney, on the other hand, was definitely not happy with how Bill Peet was handling the story, thinking that it was too scary, depressing and disturbing for family audiences. Walt wanted a basic storyline that was straightforward and simple, while focusing on entertainment, comedy and personality. It seemed that Walt wasn't interested in Kipling's original source material, but rather the characters and the settings where they all lived. He insisted on script changes, but Peet refused. After the big heated argument with Walt, Bill Peet officially ended his career with Disney, quitting in January 1964. This would make "The Sword in the Stone" his last film for the studio. For the rest of the production for "The Jungle Book", Walt replaced Peet with veteran animator/screenwriter Larry Clemmons (who was also a writer for Bing Crosby), and made him 1 of the 4-story men alongside Ralph Wright, Ken Anderson and Vance Gerry, as Walt told them specifically to not read the book by Rudyard Kipling and to just have fun. Meanwhile songwriter Terry Gilkyson was replaced by the Sherman Brothers, Richard M. and Robert B. Sherman, who wrote the songs for "The Sword in the Stone", "Mary Poppins" (1964), "The Aristocats" (1970), "Bedknobs and Broomsticks" (1971), & all 3 of the Winnie the Pooh shorts that would later compile into Disney's 22nd full-length animated motion picture, "The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh" (1977). Bill Peet's original work for "The Jungle Book" remains uncredited as the film's initial draft was abandoned, though some of his ideas surprisingly did manage to make it into the final film. Released on October 18, 1967, "The Jungle Book" was an immediate blockbuster hit, and being Disney's 19th full-length animated motion picture, it was the last Walt Disney personally supervised before his tragic death on December 15, 1966, during which the film was still in production. As for Bill Peet, since 1964 he continued his other career as a children's author, and even published an autobiography in 1989 titled "Bill Peet: An Autobiography". Peet died on May 11, 2002 at the age of 87. Bill Peet's work with Disney has influenced Disney/Pixar storyman Joe Ranft, particularly Peet's storyboards for Disney's 1946 animated/live action feature "Song of the South". Ranft went on to become the story supervisor for Pixar's first computer-animated motion picture "Toy Story", released on November 22 (Thanksgiving Day), 1995.

The Bare Necessites (demo version) gives me the creeps because of the deep song and the tune. I like the bare necessities that we have now voiced by Phil Harris
Unpopular opinion: i think Disneys jungle book is the worst. It doesn’t fit the spirit of Rudyard Kipling. I wish they would’ve made this movie more serious and dark ... with Shere Khan killing Mowglis parents ... Tabaqui the jackal ... the wolves who decide to join Shere Khan because they don’t accept Mowgli ... old and wise Kaa who isn’t a villain ... and of course Mowgli who is killing the Tiger with the buffalo stampede. Damn, this movie would’ve been so much better
When exactly were Disney movies matching the source material? Take Little Mermaid for instance. The message movie conways is the exact opposite of the original book by Anderson. Hunchback of Notredam. Tarsan. Pocahontas. Peter Pen.
