The Jungle Book-Mowgli

MOWGLI


One of my favorite cartoon characters is Mowgli, the protagonist of the Jungle Book.



Description

Mowgli is a boy with brown skin and black and long hair.
He is short and always wearing a red loincloth. His eyes are black and often he makes a strange gesture with the nose.
  

Why I like this character

I love this little boy because I always wanted to live the same adventures as him.
Mowgli is an orphan boy who was found by a panther, Bagheera, and raised by a family of wolves.



But when the tiger Shere Khan returns to the jungle with the intention of killing him, Mowgli must be taken to the village of humans to be safe.

Along the way he meets Baloo, a lazy bear, who turn a father to him. Later they sing and dance together this song.


Here is kidnapped by the King Louie and his band of monkeys swing enthusiasts who want to learn to use fire because the King wants to be like a human and he believe that mastering the fire will make it like Mowgli.


Mowgli also meets an elephant:



And when she's sad is animated by vultures:




At the end of the story he meets a beautiful girl who convinces him to live on the village people
In short, he lived all the adventures that may want a child.

A.F.S-P
Ariel is the main character of the film "The little mermaid" by Walt Disney, based on the book with the same title by Hans Christian Andersen.
Ariel is a young mermaid, with red hair and beautiful blue eyes who wants to be a human, so she can explore the world and meet the prince Eric, who she is in love with since she saved him from death in a shipwreck. She wants to have legs, to see sun, to feel like a human...


 She's desesperated, so she decides to talk with Ursula, the witch of the sea, who hates Ariel's dad. Ursula tells Ariel that, for having legs, she must give her her wonderful voice, just having the chance of getting it back if Eric gives her a true love kiss in three days. Ariel, excited with the idea of having legs, accepts.

She goes to the beach, where Eric finds her (he was in love with the girl who saved him, and with her voice, and he thinks that that girl is Ariel). They spend a lot of time together, but they never kiss, because Ursula and her henchmen are always there to ruin the moment. There is another problem, Ariel is voiceless, so Eric is having doubts about her...


Taking this chance, Ursula becomes into a beautiful woman, and she uses the voice of Ariel, trapped in a shell-shaped necklace, to confuse Eric. He believes Ursula, and they get engaged. Everything seems ruined, but, when Ursula and Eric are celebrating their wedding, Ariel's sea friends (Flubber the fish, Sebastian the crab and Scuttle the seagul) take the necklace from Ursula's neck, so she appears as she is: a fat and old octopus woman. The truth is discovered, Ariel gets back her voice, she marries Eric and the marine world and the human's one become a community. 


I like this character because it is very funny and innocent, it's also beautiful, and the whole film is one of the bests of Walt Disney, whose films I love, with their wonderful soundtracks.

Tarzán


Tarzan is a child with his family shipwrecked on the coast of Africa. To survive into the jungle,  where his parents built a house on top of a tree. Meanwhile, a pack of gorillas, including Kerchak (the dominant male) and Kala care of your little baby gorilla, but is killed by Sabor (leopard), so Kerchak is severely affected. The same leopard, also kills Tarzan's parents, but sees Tarzan, leaving him alone. Kala Tarzan hears the cries, rescues and adopts him as his son, but refuses Kerchak. Years pass, and Tarzan will be accepted by Kerchak searching to no avail, and she realizes that is different from other apes. Searching for her identity, he meets British explorers, Professor Porter, his daughter Jane Porter (which investigated the lives of the gorillas in their territory) led by Clayton, Tarzan falls in love at first sight for Jane. They discovered and realizing his situation, teach them to be have like a human, earning their trust. Comes time to return to the UK, and Tarzan asks Jane to stay, this, confused, unable to answer. Clayton, in turn, asks Tarzan to teach where the gorillas live, with sinister intentions hidden, in exchange for stays Jane, Tarzan agrees, but falls into a trap. The difficult situation is resolved thanks to Tarzan protects his pack, gaining the acceptance of "their father" Kerchak. Tarzan, when her father dies of flavor, comes to help and ends up killing the leopard as honors his father. In the end, Jane and her father stay with Tarzan in the jungle, accepting to live in the style of the African jungle.
  
What I like this story is:
-the loss of loved ones as Kala who lost her son or her parents Tarzán, both because of Sabor.
 -The acceptance of living even of different races.


-The friendship that had the animals in the jungle with Tarzán.




-The love felt by Jane Tarzán.



That showed the courage to protect Kerchak Tarzán being attacked when he had never accepted into the pack.

D'Artagnan

D'Artagnan.

D'Artagnan is a young man  (between eighteen and twenty years old). Alexandre Dumas describes him as a young Don Quijote, pround, brave and a good fighter. He is impulsive and sensitive.
D'Artagnan leaves his native town, Gascony, to go to Paris and join the King's Musketeers. There, he fights against three musketeers (Athos, Porthos and Aramis). But while they are fighting, Cardinal Richelieu's guard finds them. They want to arrest the four mans, but they fight and the musketeer and D'Artagnan win, and they go to see King Luis XIII.
Then D'Artagnan becomes part of the King's guard (which is different of the Musketeers) and Athos, Porthos and Aramis become his best friendes.
They discover that Richelieu wants to kill the King and support England in the war against France. Her ally, Milaidy, helps Richelieu in his plan. So the three musketeers and D'Artagnan go to England to safe France and the King, and break Richelieu's plans.
They get their objective and D'Artagnan becomes part of the King's Musketeers. He released his dream. While they are living their adventure, D'Artagnan realized that he was in love with Constance Bonacieux (who works in the Palace). Milaidy poisons her and the D'Artagnan and the others musketeers kill Milaidy.

The character are based in real people who lived in the XVII century. That story happens between 1625 and 1628.

There have been a lot of films about the three musketeers and D'Artagnan. In my opinion, the best ones are:
-The Three Musketeers (1993). In this film, Constance doesn't die and the story is a bit different, but it's a very good film. D'Artagnan is interpreted by Chris O'Donnell, who plays very well the value and pride of D'Artagnan.
This is D'Artgnan in this film:

  

-The Three Musketeers (2011). This film is the first half of the story. It is very different from the book, because there are boats that can fly. The explain at the beginning of the film that Leonardo Da Vinci invented them, and they were a very dangerous weapon of war. In this film, D'Artagnan is interpreted by Logan Lerman, who plays very well the teenager's  innocence and the feelings produced by the first love.
This is D'Artagnan in this film:
