Talk:The Jungle Book (2016 film)/@comment-5933172-20150126024343/@comment-1672596-20150317205738

Considering the content of the original book (the elephant basically being a vengeful monster, Baloo being a huge jerk, and Shere Khan being pathetic. Oh, and also the animals destroying the man-village in the end), they'd need to at least make it PG-13, if not R (since frankly, the original Kipling book was NOT kid friendly. In fact, it was so depressing and graphic that when making the film, Walt Disney specifically told them to not read the book beforehand).

Besides, as long as they don't ruin things like the 1990s remake did by making Shere Khan an anti-hero or making the main villain a British hunter who wasn't even in the original book, I could care less if it's not completely like the Kipling book.
