    Storyline

    • Trivia
      The Vultures were originally going to be voiced by The Beatles. The band's manager, Brian Epstein, approached the Disney studios about having The Beatles appear in the film, and Disney had his animators create the Vultures specifically to be voiced by the band. But when Epstein took the idea to the Beatles, John Lennon vetoed the idea, and told Epstein to tell Disney he should hire Elvis Presley instead. The look of The Vultures, with their mop-top haircuts and Liverpool voices, are a homage to The Beatles; one bird's voice and features are clearly based on George Harrison's. That's What Friends Are For was originally to be done as a rock and roll song. When the Beatles departed the project, the song was rewritten as a barbershop quartet, to make it timeless.
    • Goofs
      The story takes place in India, yet King Louie is an orangutan - they live in Borneo and Sumatra. Disney's promotional materials later solved this problem by declaring that Louie is an undiscovered "cryptid" species, which is also mentioned in Le Livre de la jungle (2016).
    • Quotes

      Mowgli: Oh, Baloo, I wanna stay with you.

      Baloo: Certainly, you do.

      Bagheera: Oh? And just how do you think he will survive?

      Baloo: "How do you think he will... " What do you mean how do you think he... He's with me, ain't he? And I'll learn him all I know.

      Bagheera: [sarcastic] Oh? That shouldn't take too long.

    • Crazy credits
      There are no end credits for this feature film. However, the credits are at the beginning.
    • Alternate versions
      In the 1991 Demo Tape, The film opens with the original Buena Vista logo. The original 1991/1992 home video release hides the original Buena Vista logo. In the 1997 home video release, the film opens and ends with the 1990 Walt Disney Pictures logo. The 1999 DVD release contains the 1960 Buena Vista logo as the film opens and ends with the 1990 Walt Disney Pictures logo. In the 2007 Platinum Edition release, the 1990 Walt Disney Pictures logo was silent and the original Buena Vista logo was restored. In the 2014 Diamond Edition and 2022 Walt Disney Signature Collection releases the 1990 Walt Disney Pictures logo was not used at all and the movie just opens with the original Buena Vista logo and the 2011 variant of the current 2006 Walt Disney Pictures logo only appears at the end of the film.

    What racist overtones? Don't jump to conclusions....
    It may interest readers of these reviews that the voice actor who played King Louie is not in fact black.

    If you follow this helpful link right here at imdb ( http://us.imdb.com/Name?Prima,%20Louis ), you'd find that Louis Prima is in fact white, and was quite well known at the time for his musical repertoire, of which the song "I Wanna Be Like You" is a prime example. I don't think he was chosen for that role because of how 'black' he sounded, but rather for his musical abilities, and how that fit into the character of King Louie.

    As with all the other voice actors chosen for this film, Walt Disney made perfect choices.... so much so that the film works perfectly: animation, voices and story all mesh together perfectly to make one of his best films, precisely because it *is* so simple, yet effective.

    No need for fancy computer graphics here.
