Hey Arnold: The Jungle Movie First Look

I'm glad this is getting made but what exactly is it for? Is it testing the waters for a new series of Hey Arnold?

>>93791754
To end the series

>>93791698
Fuck I was half expecting a round-about "we gave her breasts" when we got to Helga

>>93791698
I don't know how to feel about this. This is the conclusion it should've had but I feel like it's way too late

Can't wait to see /co/ hate the movie because it's not the best cartoon film ever made

How will they deal with the new VAs? Most of the original cast probably couldn't reprise their roles.

>>93791770
What was really needed to end it? It wasn't some plot centric series

>>93791782
>"we gave her breasts"
They didn't

My queen didn't get a single spoken line in the previous movie.

>>93791942
The series ended with Arnold finding a map his parents left him. Remembers his parents went MIA on the jungle. So I guess the movie is going to give some closure to that.

>>93791698
>cool sneakers
I mean they all do have pretty cool looking sneaks

>>93792106
I wonder if we'll get a good end where Arnold finally sees his parents or a bad end where he finds they've been dead for years.

>>93791754
to give 90's fans something

>>93792182
>a bad end where he finds they've been dead for years.
dumbaas

>tfw no cool sneaks

>>93792182
We know that Pigeon Man will be back at least.

What Iggy is the bad guy in the movie?

This movie is going to SUCC

>>93791828
Phoebe, Harold, Rhonda, Helga can still do the original voices and have been among the biggest spearheads in getting the Jungle Movie made.

Most of the new voices for kids such as Arnold, Gerald, and Sid are stars for some of the newer live-action Nick shows

Was never my favorite series, but I did watch it the first couple seasons. Anything that breathes new life into pre-Y2K Nick is, I suppose, a good thing. Will track.

What are some underrated HA! episodes you enjoy?

I think "What's Opera, Arnold?" is very well made. And, from the early ones, "Roughin' It" is really comfy, especially with how every character managed to get along with each other, even Big Bob and ORPHAN BOY.

>>93791998
We can dream anon

>>93792668
Second for roughin' it, that was comfy as hell.

Any of the ensemble cast ones are good, I particularly like wheezing ed and mudbowl

>>93791698
>>93792052
Not wearing socks.
Gotta love it

>>93791754
Its the Hey Arnold equivalent to Samurai Jack season 5.

>>93791698
I half expected this to be more Timbox BS

>>93791754
Nick is cashing in on 90s nostalgia

>>93792668
>even Big Bob and ORPHAN BOY.
That was a surprise, Bob sharing those juicy, delicious steaks with the Arnold and Gerald.

>>93792668
Dino Checks Out is an underrated ep. Starts with what looks like a suicide(!!!) and shows the life and times of a singer who isn't as forgotten as he thinks. Some good visual jokes and some neat songs.
And one of my favorite one off characters, pic related.

>>93792668
The one about Helga's and Miriam's road trip is hilarious.

>>93791698
Where the FUCK is Lila?

>>93795442
Away for the summer in the movie. Supposedly, there was some issue with the VA not wanting to reprise her role.

It's been over a decade since this show aired. When it finally returns, it's as a two-part TV film. Only one year has passed in the movie, half the cast has new VAs, including the titular character, and some major characters, like Lila, aren't even going to make an appearance.

I'm glad HA! is finally going to resolve its story, but it really should just be a series finale for the show. I don't know how Nick plans to market towards a new audience of children, most HA! fans are adults now. And this film is all about a cartoon that ended 13 years ago.

>>93795523
Don't make up shit, especially since all the kids are getting new VAs.

They simply don't want her to get in the way of the eventual Arnold/Helga romance even if this movie should focus on Arnold finding his parents.

>>93795794
>all the kids
No.

>They simply don't want her to get in the way of the eventual Arnold/Helga romance
Resolved back in "Timberly Loves Arnold".

>>93792668

>I think "What's Opera, Arnold?"
Is that the actual title? Way too similar to "What;s Opera, Doc" from the Looney Tunes. Similar themes too.

I never watched this as a kid. Will i still enjoy it if I watch it now?

>>93795585
Its like the Legends of the Hidden Temple movie Nick crapped out last year.

Nick knows nobody gives a shit about cable TV, so they're going for anything that may get ratings outside of 8 billion Spongebob reruns

>>93792668
It Girl - Deconstructing Arnold. Helga becomes a model and the kids go a day without Arnold watching over them.

>>93791754
They just want to wrapped things up. Kind of like Samurai Jack.

>>93791784
Yeah
I feel like they should have aged them up like 10 years

>>93795896
I watched it very very rarely as a kid but just went back and watched it all this year, I liked it. To get hooked start on some Helga-centric episodes, as she's the most interestingly written and psychologically complex character

>>93795896
Yes. Hey Arnold is practically slice-of-life masterpiece. The kids are written like kids, face somewhat complex problems sometimes. Can be funny, can be sad, there's character development.

Helga on the Couch is one of the greatest episodes ever.

True.

Gotta rewatch Helga on the Couch now that someone mentioned it.

Honestly I'd say the Opera episode is one of my absolute favorites.

>>93796333
>The kids are written like kids
Not really, even when I was 8 I was surprised that they were meant to be nine years old.

They always looked and acted as if they were much older.

>>93796475
Arnold and Helga being a little more mature makes sense.
Helga has neglectful parents and has almost had to raise herself. Plus, she has escaped to a world of books and poetry, many of which probably have mature themes.
Arnold is dealing with not knowing what exactly has become of his parents and the possibility they may not return. In the series, you see him interacting with the renters to collect rent or helping his grandparents with things around the boarding house. And he's already had a job at the flower shop across the street.
He has great grandparents as well but has to have considered they may not both live to see him fully into adulthood.

>>93792668
The one with the Jolly Ollie Man. Career Day, I think.

That's the fucking reference, jesus christ

>>93795794
>They simply don't want her to get in the way of the eventual Arnold/Helga romance even if this movie should focus on Arnold finding his parents.
Lila has been nothing but supportive of Helga's attraction to Arnold. She even gave up her acting role, just so Helga can kiss Arnold. If anything, if Lila did appear in the final movie, she would put more effort into pairing Helga/Arnold together. Hell, at this point, Lila is Helga's second closest friend and part of her clique, so to speak.

>>93792668
Best episode is Helga On The Couch. Underrated is Helga's Parrot.

>>93798029
Yes, but some of the writers still seem to consider her an obstacle to HelgaxArnold.

She wasn't even in the other movie iirc

>>93798063
Best episode is Ernie's in Love, Lola was fucking hot

>>93799189

>Ernie's in love

WHEN WILL THEY EVER LEARN

>>93798029
It's confirmed that Arnold gave up on Lila in "Timberly Loves Arnold"

Helga episodes are best episodes.

/co/ is from 2006/7 though, so it wasn't really here on the early 2000s , only mid and ahead.

Did anyone else look up to Arnold as a kid? I thought he was a good role model.

I lost my dad when I was little too so I could relate to him a bit.

>>93804189
Yeah, but Arnold's parents might still be alive. They're just deadbeats. Also, what happened to Arnold's maternal grandparents?

>>93804383
>They're just deadbeats.
Being lost in an uncharted jungle with no technology isn't exactly deadbeat behavior

>Also, what happened to Arnold's maternal grandparents?
Dead or irrelevant. Since Stella seemed close enough to her father to name her son after him I'm guessing that he at least is dead.

>>93791754
Hey Arnold ended on a cliffhanger, this movie is to give the series an actual ending

>>93791698
>Arnold is finishing the fifth grade
>isn't fucking HUGE
I have to go back and see how the fifth graders looked, because I remember them being fucking HUGE.

>>93791698
i hope this ends up better than samurai jack did

>>93792668
I STILL get some of the songs from the opera episode in my head once in awhile.

What the fuck is up with Gerald's eyes for Christ sakes

>>93806771
His parents dumped him

>>93792280
He was a depressed mess whom literally jumped off the roof of his own building...


The pigeons saving him was not only illogical and forced, but was likely just Arnold's child mind making up memories to cope with what he had actually experienced.

I've always assumed that her perfection was meant to be played for laughs.

What do you think the film will do with the Arnold-Helga relationship?

>over the course of the movie Arnold's feelings for Helga grow and he has an emotional moment with her which she doesn't reciprocate as she is too angry and confused at this
>at the climax Arnold and Helga go through death defying action which rekindles her love for him again and she confesses outright that she doesn't truly hate Arnold and in fact loves him
>though the two don't immediately start a relationship on the spot both now know that they have feelings for each other
>the two of them dance together happily in San Lorenzo before they all fly home

>>93814913
It's a two-hour, two-part TV movie

Wait, so does the Hey Arnold Jungle film still take place in the 90s or early 2000s? It can't be our current year.

>>93816123
He said it in the fucking video
>only a year or two passed for them

To the anon who shared a download for the first movie the other day, is it edited or something? My copy I have is about 75 minutes long and the one you had was 72 minutes long. I didn't feel like watching both back to back, but I skimmed through each and couldn't find much difference and the credits/opening were about the same length. Sorry to be an autist about this, but I don't like missing out.

>>93816123
>>93816274

1997 or 1998.
I base this on the episode where Dino Spumoni fakes his suicide having old posters of his last tour with 1995 on them blowing around the streets. From this, the year must have been late 1995 or early 1996.

Arnold became too preachy to me. Originally, he was just a chill kid who tried to do the right thing, but was still a kid at the end of the day. In later seasons, he became too righteous.

I can relate to Harold, because i was the fat kid

>The new Jungle Movie is different from the original one cancelled in 2002; ideas, sequences, and elements from the original were reused or modified to fit the new, re-written version of script.
>The movie's intention answers questions fans have been asking, while also introducing the characters to a new generation of kids
>Craig Bartlett decided to instead re-start from scratch, as many of his goals and objectives with the decade movie had changed over the last 15 years
>The new movie features redesigns of the show’s characters, since Bartlett wanted a new look while still respecting the canon of the original TV series.
>The movie was developed in a way that it could serve as a series finale and tie up loose ends. However, if the film was very successful, it could actually become a pilot for a new series.

Man, I find this fascinating. I honestly thought Craig was just going to use his original script to conclude the HA! franchise, but not only has his intentions changed for HA! in the past decade, he now has different plans for the show. It's kind of cool that he wants to make it more contemporary and aligns with his changing interests.

Bartlett wants the Jungle movie to serve as a series finale, while also hoping a new audience interest of it can serve as a pilot if it becomes popular. I don't know how he can get kids who haven't even watched the original cartoon understand what's going in a film intended to be a series finale for a cartoon created before they were even born.

>>93822131
Who knows dude, this might get kids to watch HA! after the movie.

>>93791698

Deconstructing Arnold, the Cheese Festival episode, and Curly's Girl. I loved the episode where Torvald was being tutored and the undertones of when Arnold arrived at his house.

>>93795442
In Universe explanation is she's out of town


Craig mentioned if the show somehow got another season, she'd be back

>>93795896
I had vague memories of the show so I couldn't remember much, but I recently rewatched it and it held up nicely

>>93818764
But it takes place in Washington state

>>93813348
Pretty much, although I still would rate Season 5 an 8 or 9/10 and solid closure to the series.

>>93798029
>Hell, at this point, Lila is Helga's second closest friend and part of her clique, so to speak.
It's kind of sad that Helga only has, like, two friends she can depend on. Granted, it's self-conflicted because of her anti-social behavior, but that's because she fears rejection, is insecure, and doesn't to be seen as vulnerable. I would even say Lila just tolerates her more better than the rest. Helga is a pretty awful friend to even Phoebe at times.

bump, i Iike HA

So, who will be Hey Arnold's Ashi?
