Another week spent mostly in front of the drawing table, nothing spectacular happening...

I think you hit the nail square on the head with the AD&D ref. --when I woke up from the dream the image in my mind was a pen&ink drawing I'm sure came direct from one of the manuals--(incidentally, I think I can out-dork anyone in the room in that I only "role-played" once of twice, but I've read a lot of the manuals & supplementary materials)

'The Jungle Book" has been on my "to read" list for a long time, & I'm going to try & get to it in the next few weeks as one of the projects I've been mulling over concerns a "feral child" in the manner of Mowgli, Tarzan ( & a number of historical precedents), worked around the framework of the "Little Red Riding Hood" Mythos.

good luck with the deadline, eh?

ratsonjulia:
little niece & nephew are addicted to Disney movies, so I've seen the animated Jungle Book a number of times (but not the subsequent live-action versions)--I've got admit a certain fondness for it, mostly for the vocal talents of Phil Harris & Louis Prima (the "I Wanna Be Like You" rocks, if you can shut off a somewhat disturbing latent message that seems buried therein)

I still can't bring myself to watch the animated "Hunchback of Notre Dame", altho I have a certain morbid fascination--I re-read the novel recently, & it seems to me to be about as apt for the "Disney Treatment" (chipper songs, plucky side-kicks) as Stephen King's "The Shining" (which led to the somewhat diverting mental game of "What would the Shining be like, given the Disney treatment?")

& finding "The Hunchback of Notre Dame 2" at the rental place a while back struck me in pretty much the same way as if I'd heard they'd made a "Hamlet 2" (opening with Hamlet & Ophelias wedding)

I suppose I should actually watch them if I'm going to keep bitching about them, but bitching about them gives me a certain comfort, & I shall continue to do so whenever the subject comes up. it's, like, my thing.
