I don't even remember who Bubba is and now I'm afraid to look him up and ruin my memory of Duck Tales.
Even if we can't agree about Rescue Rangers, I think we can all agree that Tailspin was the bottom of that barrel. Not bad, but not as good as the others. I never understood why they recycled Jungle Book characters like that.

Tailspin is excellent. It was a pretty boldly unique move to take Jungle Book characters and shape them in to something else entirely. The relationship between Baloo and the young bear was effective. And the sky pirate aspect of it all was exciting.

In his book Disney A to Z, Dave Smith gives a glowing review of Talespin. Furthermore, the thing had an exceptionally mature conception that borrowed on a lot of 1930’s archetypes. Art Deco, screwball comedy, serial adventure. The same stuff that fueled Raiders of the Lost Ark and Romancing the Stone and other stuff I loved at the time. And although I didn’t know it at the time it was influenced by the air piracy in Miyazaki’s Castle in the Sky.

Will Gadget be in it? If not Numerous people including the cult from Russia will no doubt boycott the movie
Also I doubt this will be about the Rescue Rangers in the end. It will be just about Chip n Dale. An Alvin and the Chipmunks type movie

The SHIELD Helicarrier debuted in Marvel comics in 1965.

I'll give you that it was weird to humanize Jungle Book characters but I disagree in that it really worked well. The relationship between Baloo and Kit was an emotional grounding point. Also the stories were more mature and developed compared with Duck Tales or Rescue Rangers.
Agreed.
I never knew that about Castle in the Sky influencing Tailspin. Yeah the 1930's archetypes were played up in a really fun fashion. The world they created was fun too with airships of all kinds being really common. Plus they had a helicarrier way before SHIELD did

Castle in the Sky is today called steam punk. I did some googling and evidently Talespin and some other things are now considered Diesel Punk.

Since this became the "Disney Afternoon" thread with no new news of this Chip and Dale movie, figured I'd post this here (it's already in the Duck Tales show thread):
https://ew.com/comic-con/2019/07/19/...gers-talespin/
Rescue Rangers, Tail Spin, others are going to be in the next season of the rebooted Duck Tales cartoon. The link has the poster with all the characters, including a grown up Kit.

Who there's a lot to process in the poster. I see Don Carnage, Kit has really gained weight and looks like Baloo. The three caballeros!! Is that Genie from the lost treasure movie? The rescue rangers are so tiny but look exactly like their 90's counterparts. Darkwing Duck was already on this show but cool he'll be in it for real instead of just as a TV show. I have mixed feelings about this reboot. It's not quite as bad as the Mickey Reimagining but I'm not a fan of the new art style and the method these new cartoons deliver lines. I don't know how to explain it. It's just very spastic and quick. Like they're just reading their lines and not acting.

Plot twist. The Rescue Rangers showed up in an inexplicable cameo in the new Ducktales. And all the old RR episodes are on Disney plus and my 12 year old loves it.

Yeah, I was hoping the cameo would be more than it was. No lines or anything. It was more of a blink and you'll miss it type thing.

Plot details for Rangers are being squirreled away, but it will not be an origin story nor detective agency story. Rather, the take is being described as being meta, something self-referential and cool. Dan Gregor and Doug Mand wrote the script.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Always loved the old show and the NES game was great, one of my most played games from that era.
Hope they dont get too weird with a modern take - the original was basically Magnum PI and Indiana Jones as rodents.

Rescuing the world takes a pair.
A comeback 30 years in the making, the hybrid live-action/CG animated action-comedy catches up with the former Disney Afternoon television stars in modern-day Los Angeles. “Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers” premieres May 20, 2022, exclusively on Disney+.
“Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers” stars John Mulaney (“Saturday Night Live”) as Chip, Andy Samberg (“Palm Springs”) as Dale and KiKi Layne (“If Beale Street Could Talk”). Also joining the cast are Will Arnett (“Arrested Development”), Eric Bana (“Dirty John”), Flula Borg (“Pitch Perfect 2”), Dennis Haysbert (“24”), Keegan-Michael Key (“Schmigadoon!”), Tress MacNeille (“The Simpsons”), Tim Robinson (“I Think You Should Leave”), Seth Rogen (“Pam and Tommy”), J.K. Simmons (“Being the Ricardos”), Chris Parnell (“Saturday Night Live”). The film is directed by Akiva Schaffer (“Saturday Night Live”), written by Dan Gregor and Doug Mand (“Crazy Ex-Girlfriend”) and is produced by Todd Lieberman (“Wonder”) and David Hoberman (“Beauty and the Beast”), with Alexander Young (“Extinction”) and Tom Peitzman serving as executive producers.
In “Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers,” Chip and Dale are living amongst cartoons and humans in modern-day Los Angeles, but their lives are quite different now. It has been decades since their successful television series was canceled, and Chip (voice of Mulaney) has succumbed to a life of suburban domesticity as an insurance salesman. Dale (voice of Sandberg), meanwhile, has had CGI surgery and works the nostalgia convention circuit, desperate to relive his glory days. When a former cast mate mysteriously disappears, Chip and Dale must repair their broken friendship and take on their Rescue Rangers detective personas once again to save their friend’s life.

That looks better than it has any right to be. The movie may still suck but at least that trailer made it look decent.

Not sure what to think about that. The self-aware aspect isnt what I expected, but it looks like it could have some fun moments. Not sure if I like that Chip is classically animated and Dale is more of a CG animated character. Since its going to be on Disney+ Ill check it out most likely.

I also saw Scrooge McDuck and My Little Ponies, there's probably others. Oh, also a few bars of the Indiana Jones theme.
But yeah, this looks fun, and a great way to settle the cel animation vs CGI debate by putting it as a plot point and calling it out.
I'm cautiously excited.
