Brother Bear	comment	2003's Brother Bear is the 44th film in the Disney Animated Canon, and the second-to-last traditionally animated theatrical film produced by Disney for five years, until 2009's The Princess and the Frog. It was also the last movie produced by their Florida studio. Home on the Range succeeded Brother Bear, which actually DID end their traditional animation department until 2009.The story tells the tale of Kenai (Joaquin Phoenix), a young man growing up somewhere in the Alaskan wilderness about 10,000 years before present. He is busy preparing for his coming-of-age ceremony along with his two older brothers, Sitka (D.B. Sweeney) and Denahi (Jason Raize), but when said ceremony occurs, heâ€™s... less than thrilled with the totem, or "spirit animal" that heâ€™s assigned, which turns out to be "The Bear of Love." To prove his toughness, he attempts to track down a basket dragged away by a bear who had stolen some food during the ceremony, and angrily provokes the bear after finding it. His brothers rush after him to find him cornered by the bear, and the three try to ward it off. Kenai and Denahi get out okay, but Sitka dies saving them. Later, Kenai hunts down the bear alone and slays it out of vengeance. The spirits of the land - Sitka now among them - are greatly disappointed with Kenai's needless violence, and, in an attempt to teach him a lesson, turn him into a bear.Denahi encounters Kenai's bear form stumbling around, disoriented and confused right after his transformation, with Kenai's shredded clothes at his feet. Because of this, Denahi mistakenly comes to the conclusion that this bear has killed Kenai — though the bear actually is Kenai — and resolves to track it down and kill it.In order to change back into a human, Kenai needs to find a certain mountain to converse with the spirits, while avoiding Denahi, who he is unable to communicate with as a bear. Though on his way there, he picks up a hanger-on in the form of a small, energetic, orphaned cub named Koda (Jeremy Suarez). Initially, Kenai is just as annoyed with this as he has been with everything else that's happened to him, but he slowly grows to like the cub, and as the two bond with each other, Kenai grows and begins to see life from a different perspective.A Direct to Video sequel, Brother Bear 2, was released in 2006.Not to be confused with the other Brother Bear or the children's book Thank You, Brother Bear by Hans Baumann and Eric Carle.

Brother Bear / int_17a45ff5	type	Misplaced Wildlife
Brother Bear / int_17a45ff5	comment	Misplaced Wildlife: For the most part the movies are pretty good with their wildlife placement, however, there are a few inaccuracies due to the film's setting meant to be Alaska. Raccoons are featured in both movies, once during the 'On My Way' montage in the first movie, and appear again with a larger role in the second movie. However, the furthest north Raccoons naturally range is the northern parts of the provinces of Canada (i.e. south of Alaska). Chipmunks appear in a few scenes, and while they do inhabit parts of the neighbouring Canadian Yukon territory, they don't inhabit Alaska. Early in the first movie Kenai makes a mention of Saber-toothed Tigers (Smilodons) as a favourable totem, however, the northernmost remains of Smilodon fossils come from Alberta, Canada. Fortunately, as the Smilodon don't appear in either of the films, the mention could simply be explained by stories passed through trade. During â€œOn My Wayâ€�, we see a pair of what appear to be box turtles when Koda is telling a story to a group of animals. In real life, these live no further north than southern Canada, and in fact there are no turtles in Alaska â€” or reptiles, period â€” aside from the occasional sea turtle.

Towards the end, when Denahi and Sitka suggest Kenai will have an easier time raising the orphaned Koda as a bear, Kenai worries what this will mean for them as brothers. Denahi, having truly grown into his totem of wisdom, says "No matter what you choose, you'll always be our little brother." The fact he uses the word "little brother" instead of "baby brother" lends itself a sense that Kenai has truly become a man in Denahi's eyes.

Kenai spends the majority of the film believing that bears are monsters and incapable of love. When he and Koda discover some cave paintings depicting humans hunting down animals, Koda says something that makes Kenai realize that bears aren't the real monsters, humans are.

Brother Bear / int_56515a39	comment	Artistic License â€“ History: The movie is set around 10,000 years ago at the latest, as evidenced by the presence of woolly mammoths, and the mention of other fauna such as the sabre-toothed tiger (Smilodon). However, this means that despite the tact implications (especially with the use of the IÃ±upiat language), the culture shown in the movie is not Inuit, as the ancestors of modern Inuit only arrived in America around 5,000 BP, several thousand years after the movie is set. This wasn't really avoidable, though—we don't know much about the culture of era, so it made more sense to use a later analogue. The movie and its sequel do, however, display an archaeologically accurate depiction of the Native Americans during the Upper Paleolithic era- as seen with the accurate clothing, settlements, the use of â€œClovisâ€� spear tips, the use of red ocher during ceremonies, and jewellery.

This proves awkward but not impossible, which is true to real life as bears can actually walk this way and will do so to get better vantage points sometimes. But it's not the most efficient way for him to travel, so he eventually switches to all fours.

In a worded example, when they're resting on the mammoths, Kenai reluctantly opens up to Koda about Sitka's death. He says that Sitka was killed by a "monster", referring to a bear. Later, the two see a painting of a human with a spear fighting a bear. Koda says that "those monsters are scary... especially with those sticks". And after learning that the bear he killed was Koda's mother, Kenai tries to tell him what happened in the form of a story, mentioning that his tale was mostly about a monster, referring to himself this time.

The unusual circumstances makes this more understandable. Kenai is still new to being a bear, and not fully grown, and since he was originally human, doesn't really want to hurt Atka.

Brother Bear / int_9d12bbc1	comment	Foreshadowing: The movie has several hints to suggest that the bear Kenai killed was Koda's mother. Notice how the bear doesn't directly attack Kenai or his brothers, only ever attacking in self defense. It also doesn't stop to finish off Sitka. Also, when Kenai is hiding the in bushes, the bear looks around as if looking for something before running off. Despite being large enough to be a threat, if the bear was the monster Kenai saw it as, it wouldn't be running away unless it was luring him away from something. Or, more accurately, someone. As it turns out, she had been protecting her son from hunters and clearly wasn't trying to hurt or kill Kenai and his brothers, just escape them until they made that difficult. Koda notably brings up how he and his mother had recently been separated, only for Kenai to disregard it. In addition, his first appearance is him being afraid of the presence of hunters. He was present when his mother fought off Kenai and his brothers, and had he told Kenai the story earlier, Kenai would have known what it was that turned him into a bear.

Brother Bear / int_a4c37cbe	comment	Mood Whiplash: "Brother Bear" journeys through a lot of different tones and moods in just eighty-five minutes, which earned it some criticism about the tones clashing. It starts off breezy and lighthearted like your typical Disney movie, then it becomes incredibly dark for a while after Sitka dies, then it becomes lighthearted again (with occasional moments of darkness and intensity) as Kenai and Koda embark on their journey and bond in the middle act, then it becomes violent and intense again in the last act, following The Reveal, before it finally wraps up with a semi-happy ending.

Brother Bear / int_a56e3cba	comment	Language Barrier: Kenai transforms into a bear and gains the ability to talk to animals, but also loses the ability to talk to humans. This becomes an issue when Denahi mistakes him for the bear who killed him and tries to avenge him. Most of the animals speak to each other in English, but there's a bear who only speaks Croatian, to the confusion of every other bear.

Brother Bear / int_abad35b4	comment	Soundtrack Dissonance: Kenai starts to tell Koda what happened to his mother. This is arguably the most important part of the film. What does Phil Collins do? Sing over it. A deleted scene shows the entire story without singing, averting this trope. In the introduction to said deleted scene on the DVD, co-director Aaron Blaise explains that the filmmakers felt that the confession scene and the song were basically the same beat in the story, so they were merged for simplicity. YMMV on whether keeping the song over the confession was the better choice, but one of them had to go.

The Great Spirits transformed him into a bear as punishment for his actions, although he didn't know what he'd done wrong. He soon meets the bear cub Koda, and bonds with him throughout the film. Eventually, it's revealed that Koda's mother, who he's been separated from for a while, was the bear that Kenai killed. This revelation horrifies them both, though Koda comes to forgive Kenai (mostly because the latter regrets his actions). In the end, he becomes the older brother/foster parent of Koda, choosing to stay a bear.

It is narrowly averted at the film's conclusion when Kenai lunges at Denahi to protect Koda and Denahi braces himself against his spear. Fortunately, Sitka intervenes before history can repeat itself.
