Watching Bambi 2 (2006) FOR THE FIRST TIME!! || Movie Reaction! 

The mother calling “I’m here…helloooooooo…!” Used to creep me right out as a kid. Turns out though that his mother’s voice calling to him was actually a hunter using a deer caller, and the crows that fly out of the brush are actually warning Bambi by squarking “Man! Man!”

Pretty sure it’s implied that Ronno ends up being the deer Bambi fights in the first movie when he’s grown up

I prefer this movie over the original because of the beautiful story. The relationship build between Bambi and his father is incredible.

One of the best Disney sequels for sure. I loved the fact that this took place exactly after the mom's death. The time skip in the original was too out of place and cheerful. Didn't give a chance for viewers to grieve. This film took the perfect opportunity to show how everyone coped with the event.

Fun fact: The Great Prince was voiced by Patrick Stewart, who declined the role of Jafar in Aladdin, and said it was one of his biggest regrets.

Rewatching this I’ve only just realised Mena says “Faster, Bambi, don’t look back, keep running” which is exactly what his mother said to him before she was killed 🙃

Honestly, the loss of a parent is already hard enough, but having your only remaining family member not show you love or make you feel unloved is even harder. Especially for a small child. To be honest, it’s probably that serious issue that makes the movie so entertaining.

Ronno is the deer that was fighting Bambi for Feline when they were adults.

Bambi II is up there as a Disney sequel we didn't need, but really appreciate. Also, Alison Krauss singing 'There Is Life' is enough to make me believe Heaven is real!

When Bambi is frozen and can't move, it's a literal deer in headlights moment. That's why the lighting looks like a pair of headlights, and he doesn’t snap out of it until his dad knocks him over.

This was one of the few Disney prequals/sequals that I enjoyed when I was younger. It's honestly really cute and I love Bambi's relationship with his dad. Glad you liked it, too!

If I remember correctly, the initial title for Bambi 2 was called Bambi and the Great Prince. Seem a like a more fitting title than Bambi 2, since this film is a continuation of Bambi’s younger days.

The original "BAMBI" carries a lot of respect in the animation community. So when Disney Toon studios decided to make "BAMBI 2", they decided to make it right by doing what Walt's animators originally did. With the help of veteran Disney animator Andreas Deja, the crew studied live deer for study and reference.

This movie gets me every time! It's so damn emotional! And as you said the visuals are STUNNING! Patrick Stewart was the perfect choice for Bambi's dad too imo. I would love to see you react to Arcane. It's a new series over on Netflix and it has some absolutely gorgeous visuals that I think you would really appreciate and such a gripping plot too!

I loved the sequel. I thought it was a magnificent idea to what Bambi was like living with his father.

Ill say this, if you EVER watch beauty and the beast: enchanted Christmas, just prepare yourself because the villain, is Absolute NIGHTMARE fuel

Sooooo happy you liked this one. It's so underrated and I love it so much! Watching a hardened character soften up through their bonds is always so heartwarming. Especially when you realize why the great prince is the way he is. For example, he wasn't telling Bambi not to talk about his mother for no reason, it was because talking about her hurt him and he couldn't handle it at first. So beautifully done.

The amount of moments in this movie that makes me cry is unreasonable and unfair I’m in tears in every emotional moment in this dang movie 😂

I haven’t seen Bambi 2 in so long, but it’s actually a pretty decent sequel-ish. Seeing you reacted bring me back how surprisingly solid it was. And it shows that 2D animation isn’t as dated as society pushed you to believe when it can be enchanted. You’re feelings on The Aristocats we’re pretty on point. It’s not a bad movie at all, but it’s one of the less favorable golden era Disney classics.

Patrick Stewart as Bambi's dad did a great job in this film and his voice does sounds like the original actor from the first film

This is such a great sequel. I was a bawl baby when I watched it.

I absolutely love this film! The quality of Bambi 2 is really good, in terms of visuals and animation. I like how the story revolves around Bambi growing into adulthood and focuses on his relationship with his father. This film, in my opinion is very charming and enjoyable, much like the first. Great reaction Nick!

“There Is Life” is perfection in my book. I know the original Bambi has gotten flack for the gear shift from saddest scene ever to the bright and cheery bird song, and I feel THIS is how to transition from tragic death scene to something a little more hopeful. 💖

I feel like Disney rarely explores father/son relationships this movie was sooo good

Bambi II killed it as a sequel. I love that the textures and shading in this movie give each scene a storybook illustration quality. It certainly highlighted the gorgeous design and animation for the Great Prince. Thank you for another great reaction, Nick! I hope you can watch Mune if you haven't yet and if you have time. It has almost the same color palette, but in 3d: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-X-YuxDOO8pU.html

You see the thing is Ronno is jealous of Bambi, because he's a prince and he gets attention from the other forest animals. That's why he picks on Bambi and he is the buck Bambi fought in the first movie.

I often refer to you as the "Bambi" of reactions because all of your reactions are so wholesome and kind.

I really loved the slow build up in this movie. A lot of people don't like the prequels, but I really love this movie. If you like visually pleasing movies, I would suggest "Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole" The visuals are stunning and I just love this movie. It sadly gets way to little attention...

For its out of the darkness that we learn to see And out of the silence that songs come to be And all that we dream of awaits patiently There is life 💖

I will say, for a Disney sequel, I am very impressed with how gorgeous the animation is on this movie, as well as how good the story was. The lighting and the colors just bring the forest to life onscreen...especially the snow scenes. And the film answered a very good question left from the first movie, and let us know what happened to Bambi in the time between his mother's death and when we see him as a young adult reunited with his old friends. And I liked how the Great Prince was willing to soften his gruff demeanor and stringent parenting style with his young son and have fun with Bambi, instead of just being so stern all the time. I enjoyed seeing their bond grow in this movie. And Patrick Stewart was an excellent choice to voice the Great Prince. He had that noble and powerful presence that paired well with his appearance. And the actors they chose for Bambi and Thumper sound a lot like the original voices. I was impressed, considering how long its been since the first Bambi. I also loved that they paid homage to Bambi's mother in this film in such a beautiful way.

Moral lesson of the movie: a prince can, sometimes, woohoo.

I loved your first reaction to bambi, it was such a childhood comfort for me. It's been so cool seeing you grow from about 15k to this! I hope you're having fun in what you're doing!

The music in this is beautiful.

I'm so glad you got to it! I thought this one to be really emotional, so it comes to Bambis relationship with his father

This movie’s more of a midquil because there still young. This movie took place right after the first one where Bambi’s dad surprised him and told him his mother can’t be with you anymore. So that’s where this movie takes place. But great reaction Nick as always.😊

12:29 It's the men's whistle Ronno was talking about. 17:21 - 17:27 I just realized Thumper reminds me of Bunga from"The Lion Guard".

So happy you reacted this movie. Bambi 2 is definitely one of the best sequels. I love how the relationship between Bambi and his father develops. And I’m such a crybaby when it comes to this movie, especially for the ending🤣

This was one of the sweetest sequels I watched growing up. My dad and I had watched it so many times and each time, both of us always teared up at the end when The Great Prince decided to keep Bambi with him. Loved the reaction!

Ronno should theoretically be the deer Bambi fights with, when they are older (Bambi 1)

Remember in Bambi 1 where Adult Bambi fights the bad deer that tries to get Faline? That was Ronno as a young deer that you've just watched.

This movie is so precious 🥰🥰🥰

This song at begining is hearthbreaking. In Bambi is see how song can make feeling from movie.(When you know he lost mother and in Bambi2 its started with sad scene. This literally got me xd)

It was an interesting at on a second movie. The father was less of a character in the first, more of a force. Being able to see that grieving that a lot of people go through, including the point where certain types of people try to close themselves off to the rest of the world, was pretty humanizing for his character. A wonderful sequel.

I love your reactions so much! They're so honest and pure. Thank you for always making my day!

EYYYYY ITS EARLY!!!!!

I got teary eyed so many times 😅 I really love the theme of grieve and Bambi and his dad's relationship developing

If you haven’t seen it yet you should check out the show The Mandalorian. The relationship between the two main characters and the situation they’re put into is incredibly similar to that of Bambi and his father and is even more heartwarming.

I never clicked so fast before! Bambi 2 is my favourite Disney sequel, it just just too cute, emotional and beautiful, I am glad you liked it and got invested in Bambi's relationship with his dad I cry everytime I watch this movie and this time wasn't the exception

I am glad you watch this movie. I love this movie and perfect plot for father and son: The Great Prince and Bambi

The music in this movie is one of my favorites tbh There Is Life is so pretty

What I love about this movie is how faithful it treats it’s source material like you can feel the love the creators put into it

Apparently Patrick Stewart is the only actor in the sequel to be alive when the 1st bambi became out. He was 2 years old I think.

That scene with the mom's voice, scared me to death when I was a kid. It stopped me from watching the movie for years.

You know the little deer Ronno is the same deer that Bambi fights in the first Bambi when there grown up, he is the one they fought when he tries to bully Faline a bit but tries to steal her from Bambi, but he fights him for her.

Right beside Lion King 2 this is the best Disney sequel during the direct to video era.

Ronno or Ronald I can’t remember his name but the bully deer is actually the same Deer that adult Bambi fights in the original. That’s what the line “some day we’ll meet again” is referring to. Amazing reaction Nick! I love this film so much :)

My mom had a deer growing up on the farm she lived on. She named him Bambi, he had his back legs cut off from a machine in the woods where they cut trees

Fun fact they were supposedly make a Bambi sequel, not the midquel, and it’s about Bambi and Faline’s kids but it was scrapped and decided to go with Bambi II, which is not a bad choice since this was well done and picked up the story right after the tragedy and before Bambi is all grown up. I want to see more of Bambi, Bambi is one of my favorites while growing up, but at the same time I don’t because I’m scared what they might do now a days and Disney hasn’t been making any 2-D movies is a long time

You're not the only one who prefers this over The Aristocats! :D They did a beautiful job with the Bambi sequel!

Easily the best thing about this movie is that Thumper and Flower get much more screentime. I also love the fact that we actually got to know Thumper's sisters this time around as well.

Bambi s dream is realy exited and sad and pretty i love this dvd😭😭😭😭oh dear mother😟

Another banger nick

Rewatching this Ronno as a fawn reminds me of Cera from The Land Before Time. Especially his "confrontation against Man" story.

This is my favorite movie, I cried so much watching this reaction, cause I could remember myself watching as a kid... Bambi's relationship with his dad it's just amazing, I love the scene when Great Prince shows the place where he meet Bambi's Mom...

The first movie is great with the colours and music. The little dialogue made the movie unique to me. But the second movie will always be my most favourite because of the character development and the song, “At the First Sign of Spring” is so beautiful :,) I just realized that the voice actor for the Prince voices a character from Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, which is an amazing Studio Ghibli film! Thank you for the great video and commentary as always :)

33:50- I highly doubt most people these days would call this beneath The Aristocats. This had actual passion. This actually works better than the majority of direct-to-video sequels.

Bambii shares a voice actor with Nemo (in this movie) and it’s great. Such a cute voice

I agree bambi 2 is one of the best sequels!!!

Sir Patrick Stewart voiced Bambi’s dad 😄 (aka Professor X from X-men)

marry Christmas nick 🎄🎅🏻🎅🏻🎅🏻🎅🏻🎁🎁

This was my favorite movie growing up. I can quote it word for word. The porcupine’s ‘back in my day’ rant is something my sister and I still joke about today.

Hey nice shirt Nick! And thanks for reacting to this movie!

I have always preferred this one over the first!! I used to think it was the first movie and that the actual first movie was the second movie, I just love the relationship between father and son, those relationships are so rarely shown in a good light!

I really like this movie because Disney has managed to tie the events of the first one into this one so nicely. There are so many parallels and references or foreshadowing to the things Bambi experiences as a young buck in the first one. Like fx the fight scene between Ronno and Bambi in this one has a lot of resemblance and could be a foreshadow to the fight scene in the first movie between Bambi and the buck that is supposed to be grown-up Ronno. The same kind of parallel can be seen between the dad's fight scene with the dogs in this movie and Bambi's fight with them in the first movie. And you see a parallel between the scene where Bambi's dad tries to get him up in this movie and the scene where he tries to get Bambi up after Bambi is shot by a human in the first movie. I think stuff like that are really nice touches and it really helps to tie the two movies together c:

If there's a movie with animals, snow, and a creek in the forest, I'm in. I wish I could live in a beautiful forest like that. Someday I will but for now I'll just dream.

"Keep running, don't look back!" Bambi's Mother last words... @Nickflix

Remember the Buck Bambi fought for Faline in the first film? That’s adult Ronno! When you saw Ronno head butting at Faline to make her move away from Bambi in this Sequel, just like in the first film

This is one of the best Disney sequels. I'm so glad you decided to watch this one. And the music is beautiful ❤

Bambi 2 makes me cry way more than the first one, I'm sobbing 😭

The voice of Young Bambi in this movie is voiced by the voice of Nemo from finding Nemo. He did a good job

I don’t know why but seeing you geek over snow to the point where you hope spring doesn’t come is hilarious

One of the best sequels, love the music, thank you for the reaction! Just what I needed to cheer me up after a bad start to the morning. Make sure to check out Balto and Ferdinand sometime.

Classics live on forever

Fun fact: The person voicing Bambi in this movie did the voice for Nemo in Finding Nemo.

Great reaction to a great movie) Nick, it’s always such a delight to see your reactions))) Also, since you are starting to watch kinda remakes but different stories like “Maleficent”, maybe you should try “Oz the Great and Powerful”, it’s also pretty interesting.

WE NEED A BACKSTORY ABOUT THE GREAT PRINCE AND BAMBI'S MOTHER!!! @NickFlix

The Music in this movie reminds me of the music they put in the Tinkerbell movies. I hope you do look into those movies there quite entertaining.

Definitely one of the best Disney sequels ever, and one of the few that is an improvement on the original in pretty much every way. The animation is gorgeous, as are the songs. The voice acting is on point and the plot is interesting and emotionally investing. Honestly I'm not much of a crier, it's very hard for movies to get me to do that, but this movie makes me cry several times without fail. Maybe its because the relationship between Bambi and his father speaks so much to what I had with my dad, never living up to his expectations or being the way he wanted me to be, and me desperately wanting him to be emotionally open with me and treat me as his child, rather than just a younger him. Unfortunately that did not have the happy ending that this movie has, which is why I think I cry so much at this, because it makes me wish for what could've been, but wasn't.

This movie is a perfection! The songs are stunning!

For some reason the music in this movie reminded me of the Heffalump Winnie the Pooh movie 😂. Really loved that movie as a kid. Also love the reaction from today 😁

Man i love your reactions video!!

This one was a beautiful story honestly. I really enjoyed it as well. A deep message

When he has that dream of his mother, telling her how much he missed her and her telling him she would always be with him gets me every time! And there is an awesome theory, I don't know if it's cannon or not but I am totally accepting it as cannon because it works, that Ronno is the deer Bambi fights as an adult in the first movie! Remember that epic fight when Bambi was trying to be with Faline but another male deer came and tried to take her away, which resulted in Bambi battling him? That was adult Ronno!

I don't know if you remember but Ronno showed up in Bambi 1 as well XD

Merry Christmas,Nick!

Hi Nick, I subscribed a few weeks ago. I love your channel and your videos, keep up the great work. I love how you really connect with the story and the characters, reminds me of myself when I watch a movie, it drives my brothers crazy. Also, I'm so excited to see your Maleficent video, it's an amazing movie. By the way, I think maybe sometime you might want to look into the movie Little Shop Of Horrors (1986) . It's a little bit scary at some parts but overall it's a musical comedy and an amazing film. Again, love your videos and keep on enjoying these diffrent movies.

Nick! Hey!

Cats don’t dance is severely underrated animated movie

Bambi II is one of my favourite Disney midquels and I grew up with it along with the original Bambi in my childhood. Another you could watch is Peter Pan 2003, I grew up with that film too.

I am so happy that you do a reaction video on bambi 2! It’s one of my favourite sequels of Disney! Love your reaction!
