The Jungle Book 2
In this Disney animation, a sequel to Rudyard Kipling’s classic "Jungle Book," the boy Mowgli (voice of Haley Joel Osment) now lives in a village with a loving human family, but he misses his bear pal Baloo (John Goodman) and the freedom of living in the jungles of India. Mowgli sneaks away from the village one night, and his friend Shanti (Mae Whitman) and her little brother Ranjan (Conner Funk) follow him. They soon become lost, but Mowgli has a joyful reunion with Baloo and the wise old panther Bagheera (Bob Joles). Meanwhile, Shere Khan (Tony Jay), the vicious man-eating tiger, resumes his quest to destroy the boy. The lively music includes a few new tunes, Jungle Rhythm and W-I-L-D, along with old favorites Bare Necessities and I Wanna Be Like You.
