Vuk Tempest And I mean it. This cartoon was the most successful of the 80's Hungary for a reason. Unlike Gát's "Kis Vuk" labeled monstrosity, which in no way connects to this one despite being titled as "A Sequel", Vuk delivers allegory of freedom and slavery (The Foxes are on the rebel side, fight for Nature and the Spirit of The Fox, while the Hunters and their dogs represent Slavery, kinda like any dictatorship in history, including the Soviets, under whose power Hungary was first tortured, then unhealthily spoiled.) Gát György says "they were working on the footsteps on this one". Well, with a movie that makes no sense, lacks a story, and is just outright a mockbuster, you may claim you are into Video Brinquedo footsteps rather than the master of Hungarian Animation's, whose name was Dargay Attila. And Dargay, Indeed, was an angel in the Makuta's pool of evil, which needed his works to think about freedom. The line included many masterpieces, like "Ludas Matyi" which decipted a medieval Hungary, and a boy who stroke the power of an evil man in power. Vuk did the same: Decipting a world where Foxes fought for their freedom against the Hunters, who killed their families. If Disney contacted Dargay to work on a sequel right away, it would be a better fate for this Classic than have a mockbuster claim itself as a Sequel. Before Lion King, and After the year Vuk was released, Disney was living it's golden age. So why not? Why didn't it happen? Well, maybe that's for the best too, because Hungarians are a bit sensitive towards their materials. My respect goes for the now dead Dargay, who borough us tales of freedom. And one of them was told in the POV of foxes. And they deserved it, because most of the time, Foxes USED to be the villains or bad guys in stories. Here, we find out they are not. And why they aren't.SPOILER Oh and the sequence when Karak teaches Hunting to little Vuk? That's cute!
joestratocaster86 This was my absolute favorite movie as a kid. Foxes were always my favorite animals, and I believe this movie was what started that. This had to be one of the first movies I saw because I watched it for years and years after that. It still brings back many fond memories. I can't quite put my finger on the reason why I liked it so much, but I don't really care to anyways. I liked it then, and I still like it now.Watching it now as an adult I can see the juvenile aspects of the film, as well as the non-North American influence. The animation is very unique (almost like anime, but completely different). This isn't a flaw, but instead a part of the film that makes it that much better. The dialogue is almost humorous in that it is very juvenile, but I can't bring myself to criticize this film. As a children's movie in the early 90's it was utterly flawless, but today's kids are getting smarter and probably wouldn't appreciate a film like this (unless they were very young).I still have the old VHS copy of the movie, but would like to find and purchase a newer copy so that someday my kids could enjoy it as well. They need to re-release it as a classic on DVD. I'll bet many people could appreciate something like that.If you've never seen this film, find somebody who owns an old VHS copy and watch it with your young children. You'll find that it is a welcomed escape from some of the distasteful modern cartoons they put out these days. I can't say everybody who watches it will enjoy it simply because people have different tastes. But you will have to admit that it is unique in a good way. Cheers
krifek I have seen above post just now, and even it is an old comment, I must react. The original story of Vuk the fox has been written by a Hungarian author, István Fekete in the 1950's. The book became very popular, so the animation has been created 1981. The author died in 1970, so the answer for the question: was The Glacier Fox the story he used, is NO.The story itself is very sweet, enjoyable for kids and for adults as well. Nowdays it is even recommended book for elementary school children, so if you find the book version, don't hesitate to buy it. For smaller kids the comic book is available also. Have fun with the book or VHS/DVD as well :)
Inry Full-length movie about foxes. The main hero, a little fox Vuk lost his parents and was adopted by another old fox, Karak. When he grows up, he avenges a hunter and rescue a vixen Panny from the cage. Style of that movie is classic, but not Disney's, Hungary made own different animation (and this is not anime!). The movie himself exists in two version: one for TV in two parts and second for movies. That versions slightly differs in some episodes.
