Protect me, from what? | Balto II (2002) | Screen Bites 

Balto is not to blame for anything, these are genes he carries with him .

It's funny, because Aleu looks like the huskiest husky to ever husky. Wolves don't even carry the gene for blue eyes.

I don’t know about you, but I feel this scene hits differently in 2020 much more than it did in 2002.

I'd adopt Aleu in a heartbeat tbh

I own wolf dogs. They are magnificent. I'm glad she learns to be proud of her heritage

I would've adopt Aleu when I was a child in that movie😍😍😍

If I had to choose between Balto I and Balto II... Balto I, no doubt no second thought on that.

Aleu may be kind of a drama queen, but I feel really bad for her, every pup got a new owner but nobody wanted Aleu. The ending was probably one of the saddest animation movie endings ever (I'm not gonna spoil what happened). I also feel bad for Balto, he became pretty hard on himself, because he thought it was his fault that Aleu ran away. We should probably blame the people for it, because everyone wanted the pups that look like Jenna and Aleu was the only one who wasn't getting adopted.

1:19 is the weirdest and kinda the cutest face I ever seen with Balto

I stand by the idea that Aleu is less mad about being part wolf than she is about Balto not telling her that's the reason why she hasn't been adopted. I understand where Balto is coming from, but withholding information about his and Aleu's origins/genetic history, especially when it has an impact on how society will view them, was not protecting her; it just allowed her to walk into dangerous situations because she never knew better (i.e. almost getting shot by a hunter), and it gave her false hope that she could have been adopted, despite their town's prejudice. In today's day and age, and perhaps in different regions of the world, I'm sure people would be more likely to adopt Aleu, I know I would have, but the environment they were living in and how wolves/half wolves were viewed should have been reason for her to know the truth.

0:06 Aleu's tail fluffs up like a husky's does

"She was as white as snow" the way Balto describes his mother Aniu is almost exactly how I describe my best friend, Bella. the only difference was her fur was as black as ebony.

I know at first Aleu hates being part wolf, but I'm glad over time in the movie she grows to accept it, and finally finds her place in the world.

0:16 Aleu is so innocent..

That scene right there made me feel for her. If i were there, i would have adopt her. Plus, i could tell her myself so she wouldn't get herself in this. I'm her fan all the way!

I love Aleu, but first time I saw this movie I didn't see it coming when she said she hates her father and ran off and I'm like "Oh Great, Great, it's one of those child and parent relationships"

In Alue's defense, she's still very young, barely older than one year old, so she's technically not a little puppy anymore, but still in human eyes, a pup, or a teenage puppy, she won't be a full grown adult until she's at least 3 or 4 years old, which explains why she's acting so immature. Also, you have to take in that she has been shunned out by the humans her entire life for a reason she didn't know while she was forced to see how all her brothers got families, homes and got adopted except her, something that really must have hurt her self-steem. Remember she claims how "I knew there was something wrong with me", meaning she blamed herself for not being like the others. It must have been extra hard because she grew up believing she was a pure husky, so finding out that a human tried to kill her because they thought she was a wolf, and that the reason why no one adopted her and no one will ever do it is because of something that she can't control like her own genes, that she carries because of her dad, who lied to her her entire life about it, must have hurt. Is it fair she lashes out at Balto like that? No, of course not, but she's a puppy, a teenager at her best that has just been attacked and got revealed the biggest and most important secret of her entire life, and finding out that her dream of having a human family will never happen, all because of her dad's genes, all because she had the worst luck that out of ALL her brothers and sisters, who share the same genes as she does, she had the worst luck to look more like a wolf than the rest. It's an incredibly cruel and unfair situation...which hurts her deeply...and makes her lash out, in this case, at Balto. Was it wrong she blamed him or told him what she did? Yes, but it was the heat of the moment, later she still loved her and didn't resent him.

Why do people think Aleu is being a drama queen? Like don't u understand? Aleu grew up thinking one day she'll be adopted but never happened which could have damaged her self esteem, she had to grow up with her dad and mum and almost killed by a hunter and then finds out by her father that she's part wolf (don't forget some humans think wolves are pests and are mostly disliked when they enter human settlements). Her father tells her all this now when she's too late to be adopted like I'd be really mad if i was in her situation

In Balto II you realise Balto talks so much more in the second one than the first one😂😂 it’s kinda scary

I had a wolf dog growing up. He was a wolf/husky/German Shepard and we had all these acres for him to roam around and play. He was my baby and we would sleep in the chicken coop together. I still have his tooth because my biological dad kept his ashes. I miss him everyday♡

Balto was like there’s no way I’m not going to let me fail to protect and save Aleu

That's actually not Jodi Benson as Aleu, btw. Aleu's voice actor is Lacey Chabert. Jodi Benson is actually Jenna.

No wait aleu! Don't go away

although she has wolf genes she is unique and beautiful.

I love ❤️ this movie. Not many people remember this movie.

Balto's face ❤ 1:19

I feel sorry for both of them

Lacey actually sounded like Mila Kunis in this scene

"You never told me that I'm genetically related to one of the strongest, most badass animals in the world? I hate you, Dad. Don't call me."

I would adopt a wolf😃😃😃

Aleu: I knew there was something wrong with me. Balto: There is nothing wrong with you, you have a proud heritage. Aleu: Oh, sure. Balto: your mother is a purebred husky. Aleu: Then what are you? Balto: I-I-I'm the one who's part wolf. Aleu: Who could this happen? Balto: Look, Aleu, my dad was a husky who had pups with a wolf. Aleu: Great, my grandmother was a wild animal, did the wolf teach you how to know when a human wants to kill you? Balto: I was accidentally separated from her when I was young so, l-I-I never spent much time with a wolf, but I remember that she was as white as snow, and she had this warm voice that made me feel safe, will and Boris took me in, after being raised by a goose it's a wonder I don't hog instead of bark. Aleu: Why didn't you tell me this before? Balto: Because I wanted to protect your. Aleu: Protect my, from what, from the fact that no human will ever want me, because I'm part wild animal? Balto: Aleu I-? Aleu: And what about my brothers and sisters they got wolf in them to, why did humans want them? Balto: Because they don't look it (sigh), and you do. Aleu: Oh, it's not fear, I HATE YOU! (sodding) Balto: Aleu, Aleu come back? Aleu: Leave me alone! Balto: (sigh)

1:19 looks funny

This is so weird hearing Maurice LaMarche using his normal voice in a cartoon. I'm just expecting him to talk like The Brain.

Happy birthday, Lacey Chabert.

I know it wasn’t right for Aleu to say she hates Balto for something he couldn’t control, much less change about himself, and transferred on to her through genetics, but I can understand that she’s so young that she has no idea how to process what she just learned. I mean, think about it in terms of Naruto learning the Nine-Tailed Fox was sealed away inside of him for years and everyone else knew except for him, and that was why he was never accepted in the village. Look at how he responded. He was angry, confused, and ready to lash out at someone because he didn’t know how to process it. Aleu just learned she’s part wolf and looks more wolf than husky, which is why a Hunter just tried to kill her, and Balto kept this information from her her entire life, so why shouldn’t she be pissed off about her situation. She’s still just a pup, barely old enough to be considered an adult, so she still has a hard time understanding how the world works. It’s not fair, and it’s cruel, but it is what it is. Balto can’t change who he is, and neither can Aleu. Doe that make it right to be angry and lash out at someone? In many situations I would say no, but when it comes to something as serious as finding out something about yourself that you never knew but everyone else did, hell yes it’s right to be angry and want to lash out. But I would also say that not getting adopted was probably the best thing that could’ve happened to Aleu, because she learned that she’s not meant to be a dog, she’s meant to be a wolf, and succeed Nava as the wolf clan leader. That, I would say, is a better opportunity than being a dog.

0:52 boris is like i heard that

I would have loved to adopt Aleu. I am not afraid of wolves. I love wolves and wolf hybrids. They are beautiful and misunderstood animals. I would have taken her in a heartbeat.

Never would understand why his daughter would be upset to be part WOLF. Literally the foundation of their species, the most hardy, built to survive canines to exist! Her level of disrespect annoys me

Aleu reminds me of Kiara from The Lion King, only more annoyingly stubborn and leaving her parents forever.

Yes, Balto is not at fault, but there is a flaw in the script, I mean, if I'm talking about the human Rosie and her parents, did Rosie's parents actually give Balto permission to have puppies with Jenna? And most importantly, since Rosie or her parents didn't know that Jenna had puppies, Rosie could have taken care of Aleu, Balto saved Rosie's life, because her parents or everyone rejects her just like Balto.

Nothing wrong with being a wolf.

She is a drama queen, geez... Also if there is one thing u never say to ur parents it's I hate u. NEVER say that to the ones who raised u and look out for u and care for u! Never that.....err [EDIT]- This was something I said 4 years ago. Please don't go commenting hate, as I no longer believe this statement to be fully true. Thank you.

Wouldn't Aleu been upset anyway if Balto already told her that humans didn't want her in because she's a wolfdog because her father Balto is a wolfdog too in the first place?

Lacey Chabert playing with his character as hardcore

In my opinion aleu looks morehudky than wolf because her tail curves alot

Y am I getting a land before time vibe from the animation

Aleu:what about my brothers and sister they thought of wolves too. Why do humans want them. Me:because they don't like it, Aleu.

Didn't people have wolfdogs as pets in 1920s?

I actually created my OC wolfdogs for my Balto books. Their mother is a Karelian Bear Dog, while their father is a captive bred wolf. They were a pack of hunting dogs belonged to their master that lived in Nome. They were feared and respected by other dogs due to their hunting dog instincts. 1. Onyx: Northwestern wolf x Karelian Bear Dog mix (male) 2. Diggs: Northwestern wolf x Karelian Bear Dog mix (male) 3. Tobias: Northwestern wolf x Karelian Bear Dog mix (male) 4. Luna: Northwestern wolf x Karelian Bear Dog mix (female) 5. Spirit: Northwestern wolf x Karelian Bear Dog mix (female) 6. Jewel: Northwestern wolf x Karelian Bear Dog mix (female)

I don't know why the sequel's authors made up the white wolf is Balto's mother. The first film heavily implied that his mother is the dog and his father is the wolf.

0:30-0:33 I realize that it’s Maurice LaMarche as Balto, before mister freeze 🥶 from Arkham city, while Mark Hamill voiced as the evil 🐺 and the joker.

I wonder if Universal's intention was to make two sequels to Balto, or they were planning on making 6 sequels.

Balto successfully saved his and Jenna’s daughter Aleu’s life 3 times

I agree. Who’s ever seen red huskies?

Wow this came out when I was born

Me: Aleu the reason why Balto was protecting you because he was bullied by a dog named Steele. Aleu: Is that why he told me the truth? Me: Yes.

*Me who loves wolves and would’ve adopted her in real life* Well…wolves are badass and gorgeous-

“Fact. Aleu has a mate he’s the reddish brown wolf 🐺 his name taku .”

Balto and Aleu were judged by the way they looked, not by the way they treat people. They deserved to be treated like regular dogs even if they’re part wolf 🐺

Poor Aleu

I feel for alue and all but you can't hate alto cause he's 1/2 wolf. I tend to identify more with balto because I'm half white and half Mexican but never one or the other and I'm still trying to find where I fit in. I don't hate my parents for not being the same race and alue can't hate balto for not being a full husky.

the part when she ran off crying reminded me of nala in the lion king 2

Is Aleu, Eliza Thornberry?? that voice is so familiar

The struggle of being different in a society that teaches you a very young age that a part of you is fundamentally "wrong" or "broken" or "unwanted" when that thing is beyond your control

Balto lives in a ship

Oh here comes another "want to protect you" thing

Aleu: *runs away * me *follows her *

So the people didn’t really learn from Balto at the end of the first movie huh?

Alue has every right to be angry at her dad for him not telling her this sooner.

Of all gods creatures none in my opinion is more pure and magnificent than the wolf 🐺

Aleu reminds me of Octavia from helluva boss here

Aleu come on what are you doing you are definitely not a part of the wolf family!

Humans this days: oh a wolf… come here little boy, who is a cute wolfie?

Is no one really gonna bring up the fact that Aleu is voiced by GRETCHEN WEINERS💀

Okay, this is a total overreaction by Alue here, but it wasn’t cool of Balto to keep this info from her for so long. Balto doing his best doesn’t mean he’s made all the best choices; if he were honest with his daughter when she was a pup, she probably wouldn’t have run off as an adolescent.

How ironic that THIS film along with The Wild Thornberrys Movie came out the same year.

It’s not fair about the fact that humans don’t except quarter-half wolf dogs all because they have wolf on the inside of them.

HER GRANDMA IS MOST BEAUTIFULL WOLF EVER WHITE

balto and aleu sounds like chief burns and Dani burns

Honestly, Aleu was never menat to be adopted by a human. She was meant to lead the wolf pack. Balto might of decided to leave the wolf pack, but Aleu joined it. There 2 stories are kinda reversed, Aleu joined the wolf pack as their leader, while Balto left the wolf pack.

Aleu is being very unreasonable in here.

Wow, I don't remember her voice being so high pitch. I think I remember her voice it's lower than this xD

Turns out it came out straight to video on my 10th birthday.

why did balto make that face . _ . 1:19

She got a cream coat, blue eyes that’s rarer in wolves, & also have a curvy tail that sled dogs were breed to have it so tails won’t get stuck or caught. Also probably she’s smaller than a wolf too.

My sister has a husky wolf mix and he looks like a husky but his face looks very wolf like!

I feel bad for both of them

Nice try but Jodi Benson was Jenna also known for Ariel and Thumbelina.

It seems that people, who worked on this sequel, never watched the original film. Because the characters are totally OOC. As well as there are contradictions to the canon of the original film, hence the sequel created logical holes and plot holes. 1. Why Balto is again ashamed of his wolf heritage, if he embraced his wolf nature and even howled in the original film? The entire character arc and point of the original film were just erased. 2. Why nobody wanted to adopt Aleu, if she is the pure copy of the wolfdog hero, who saved kids of Nome in the original film?! Rosie's family would adopt her no matter what! 3. Why Balto insisted the idea "dog is superior, wolf is inferior, Aleu has to be and will be a dog, her heritage is great 'cause her mom is a PURE-BRED husky", if in the original film Balto said "Since when you need a pedigree to help?" and if Jenna fell in love with the half-wolf, i.e. they rebelled against this obsession with pure breed and proved nobility in their deeds?! 4. Balto's origin. In the original movie Balto's mother was a husky, while his dad was a wolf (the white wolf was a male and a symbol of Balto's wolf side and self-acceptance), i.e. it makes sense, why he lived among humans and dogs, why they know about his mixed lineage, why he wanted to be a sled dog, denied his wolf side and didn't leave Nome with a wolf pack. It makes sense and works perfectly. What we see in the sequel? Balto's mother is the white wolf (according to the writer of the sequel, Aniu is the wolf deity, the Great Mother of all wolves) and his father is some unknown dead beat dog (according to the writer of the sequel, he is a stray dog loner, who mates and then never even knows about possible pups). That means, Balto was basically a wolf demi-god and lived only with mother and knew only his mother-wolf, until he accidentally got lost in the wild, and Boris found and adopted him, bringing to Nome. So, why Balto thought that he's a part wolf instead of a full wolf, if he never had a father and was only with his wolf mother? Why he so badly wanted to be a sled dog and denied his wolf side, if he had fond memories about his wolf mother and was raised by her and then by a wild goose, who disliked humans? He'd hate humans and dogs, he'd want to be with wolves, he'd perfectly know that he's a wolf. Moreover, why humans thought that Balto is a half-breed instead of a wolf? Why Balto didn't leave Nome to find his mother? Why Aniu mated with this random stray mutt? Why she, being a goddess, abandoned Balto to suffer among dogs and humans instead of finding a wolf family for him? According to the writer of the sequel, Balto was a only part of a greater plan, where Aleu is the true chosen one from prophecy. No comments...

Poor aleu

His father was a husky and his mama was a wolf. We thought it was the other way around I thought his father was a wolf and his mother was a husky

“From The Fact That NO Human will ever want me Because I’m Part-‘Wild Animal’?!” (: 😂😆😝🎭 💣

Balto 2 wolf quest aleu he looks beautiful 😍

I mean to be fair, Aniu gave up Balto for a good reason. He would’ve died with her if he stayed with her so Aleu had no room to talk here. and Jenna was with Balto cause he has a good heart, not because of his breed

What a drama queen

This scence would make me worried when I was younger ):

The same voice actress from "The Wild Thornberry" show😃

Anyone hear Eliza Thornberry talking?

The relationship between Balto and Aleu were both powerful. According to Balto, he’s half-wolf and he was separated from his family when he was a pup. Boris, his best friend, took him in and he was being raised by a goose. He doesn’t honk instead of bark. According to Aleu, her brothers and sisters got wolf in them. According to Balto, they don’t look it and Aleu do.
