Disney is producing a live-action remake of their 1967 animated film The Jungle Book. At least they are calling it live-action, even though almost all the characters are CGI. In honor of the occasion, Screen Junkies is looking back at the first Disney Jungle Book with an Honest Trailer.
Sure, we know Disney played fast and loose with Rudyard Kipling’s novel book. But since I hadn’t seen this movie in many years, I’d forgotten how repetitive it was. Not a problem for little children, because they are going to watch an animated film over and over again on home video anyway. And how else are they going to learn all the songs? -via Tastefully Offensive

The Jungle Book is not a novel. It is a collection of short stories. Which is why the movie probably seems to ramble a bit and lack a strong through-plot.
