Bambi (DVD)

...---About the film--- Bambi was Disney's 5th animated classic and was first released in 1942, when it was nominated for three Academy Awards including best song. Right that's all the history I'm going to tell you, because quite frankly that's all I either know or care about. And onto the film itself, and what a wonderful animation it is, in fact it's an animation against which all others should be compared. While the backdrops are rendered with ...
...characters from the film with Bambi taking the prominent position. This is then enclosed in a cardboard slipcase, which is identical in design to the actual case and helps keep it looking pristine. The actual DVDs are beautifully printed with scenes from the film, but the lack of gloss finish does give a little bit of the impression that I could create just as good printing using my Epson DVD printer. All in all though I would say that the presentation ...

Cool eh?! -------------------------------------------------------- What I thought of the new revamp of a classic -------------------------------------------------------- To revamp this classic what the fellers at Disney did was to re do some of the colouring and make the voices crisper rather than in the original which I have seen as well, they were dull and hard to hear, sort of muffled ...

Review of Bambi (DVD)

...I don’t know if Bambi does stand up to the time test, like so many other people say! The music to me is dated, as are the songs. The colour perhaps not as sharp as you get in animated films now and the story not quite what most kids would expect and want. OK, that being the case, why write it? Because, for me it was a time of innocence lost. I learned that man is not always nice and that he can do cruel things, I learned that mothers die and that ...

It was also said that Disney held a premier in Lincoln Theatre of Damariscotta which is in Maine to thank Maurice Day an animator credited with bringing Bambi to Disney’s attention! It was also ...

...it all over again. Bambi was first shown in Cinemas in 1942, but work on the film originally started in 1936. Acknowledged by Walt Disney himself as his favourite film. The film was aging and needed to be restored before transferring it to DVD, if the film had not been restored it may have been lost forever. The film was scanned framed by frame and digital software was used to clean each frame. When the film was cleaned it then went through a colour ...
...This is the story of Bambi a little fawn and it charts his life from birth to becoming a great stag (and prince of the forest). It's quite emotional and deals with difficult issues for example the loss of his mother. It's a fantastic tale that keeps you entertained with all the loveable forest creatures that are very life like. It's a Story that everyone knows and loves and hopefully the DVD will allow another generation to love it as much as we ...

...to comments. Thanks. Bambi was written by Felix Salten in 1923 and began production in 1936. It took 6 years to make and Walt Disney was very proud of it. Bambi is a cute little deer that is born in the forest. The film features Bambi's life and that of his forest friends. There is Thumper the rabbit, and Flower the skunk. The film takes you through each stage of Bambi's life, from being a young Prince, to becoming a grownup Prince fighting for ...
...that I have read on Bambi mentions this, so I don't see how I can get in trouble for doing the same!! The film is a little short compared to todays standards and lacking a little in plot and details, however you must remember that this is an original Walt Disney film and that things were very different back when it was made. At the time the film was ground-breaking in its originality and the quality of the animation was superb. Of course now, against ...

Review of Bambi (DVD)

About Bambi: Bambi is a film of emotion, growing up and love and is probably one of Walt Disney's most original masterpieces. The film is about life in a forest where deer are powerful but are always at the risk of humans. Bambi starts off as a small newly born foal ( who may I say is very cute ) and is the son of the prince of the forest. Bambi has many struggles through his childhood ( like learning how to talk and walk ) but his good friends ...
...who is called Philline and Bambi finds her very annoying as a foal. His mother takes great care of him but as winter comes, tradegy strikes. She's shot by hunters. Heartbroken, Bambi relies on his father until he's old enough to fend for himself. May I also say that when Bambi's mum dies it is very depressing. The older Bambi soon falls in love with Philline and after a dramatic escape from a forest fire, becomes the new prince of the forest and ...

Bambi definately has to be that film in which every family will remember and love to watch it. It's also a really sweet and realistic movie about a young deer that has a hard life living in the woods. Bambi was born to a young lady deer and his farther who's the king of the woods and who every one respects. For a while this is fine but danger lurked just around the corner for him and his mother, as man would come in to the woods wanting to hunt ...

Review of Bambi (DVD)

...such a morbid fashion and Bambi being an orphan, 'Dumbo' is a great example with an underage elephant, getting drunk with a grown-up mouse!) That is why grown-ups can laugh along with the older Disney films, but the children who have been wrapped in cotton wool could prompt to ask difficult questions like my younger sister did when we sat and watched it together. The questions I was asked during Bambi "Why did the mother die? Will my mum die? I don't ...
...being sad when I watched Bambi as a six year old, not because Bambi's mum had died but because I then realised there was a very real possibility that my mum could die and it was something I have never thought about before. There is a certain relevance with children to have a more imaginative brain and their use of escapism is frightfull, they would quite easily place themselves in Bambis shoes. Having warned parents (perhaps young parents new, to ...

...mechanics of animation, showing how Bambi was made. The film itself is a masterpiece. There are moments where you can nitpick, when Bambi's mother died we then go into a joyful scene very suddenly, and some of the songs sound a little dated in their arrangement, but they're good tunes nonetheless. Bambi is the star, but Thumper isn't far behind with his infectious joie de vivre, and that irritating thumping greeting! The film isn't twee, as the ...
...other magical moments are when Bambi shyly discovers love, and when he reunites with his father again. The dark terror of the animals fleeing the forest when its's burning is also impressively conveyed. The film has quite a strong moral stance, and man is portrayed as cruel, and this was a film made when animal welfare issues were not as prominent issues as they are today. You won't find many better animated films than this one. Ah yes, those ...

Review of Bambi (DVD)

Bambi is essentially a story about a young deer as he grows up to become "The Great Prince of the Forest". It tells the tale of Bambi and his friends Thumper the rabbit and Flower the skunk as they grow up and fall in love. First released in 1942, Bambi is starting to show its age. With new Disney films such as the fantastic Finding Nemo, Bambi seems out dated and stale in comparison. However, the film is still enjoyable as a classic Disney animation. ...
...but this is by far the worst song I have ever had the misfortune to hear. Bambi is a good, enjoyable film.The story itself is ok, the animation is ok and the film as a whole is ok. Nothing spectacular but still worth a watch if you haven't seen it. ...
