When Mufasa confronts Simba late in the film and tells him he is more than what he's become, I get this feeling inside that I've never felt before. The score, the beautiful visuals, the powerful voice acting by James Earl Jones. It's like the stars all aligned to make the most perfect scene. I'm always transfixed by the stars and background when I watch The Lion King. The atmosphere just takes me over. The Lion King is with out a doubt my favorite film of all time.

SalmaX33 SalmaX33 I hope you like it! It's by far my favourite movie based on a religious story; usually, the writers/directors simplify the story and characters to the point that no one acts like real people (because being a true believer means you never make mistakes or stress about what path to take, right? Right?), but this movie makes the people relatable and their actions understandable. Also, the music is quite good. :) Now you have me curious about how similar the versions of the story are between the Old Testament and the Quran... To Google!

I believe they were talking about how all those movies didn’t do well in the box office. Almost all the movies shown in that second are I love but a few bad choices mixed with bad luck made it hard for them to make a little more money with those movies. Hence it being the downfall...

I'm surprised that Rob doesn't know the translation of "Nants Ingonyama." It is as follows: "Nants ingonyama bagithi Baba [Here comes a lion, Father] Sithi uhm ingonyama [Oh yes, it's a lion]Nants ingonyama bagithi baba Sithi uhhmm ingonyama IngonyamaSiyo Nqoba [We're going to conquer] Ingonyama Ingonyama nengw' enamabala [A lion and a leopard come to this open place][Chant repeats]" Edit: The chant is Zulu, not Swahili.

"Nants Ingonyama" is Zulu. Also, as far as I know, TLK is the first ever Disney film to be totally dubbed in Zulu. Ingonyama is Zulu for Lion. Here is an interesting Quora answer on the chant. This person says that, in this context, it's no ordinary lion, as "Ingonyama" is used to refer to a Zulu king. Also, only royals can wear leopard print (www.quora.com/What-are-the-lyrics-of-the-Lion-King-introduction-What-do-they-mean/answer/David-Barnes-76?srid=RjQl).

In canonical Lion King books it said that Scar had a much more normal name similar to Mufasa’s (I can’t remember it exactly) and he chose to be called Scar as a reminder of his failure as he attempted to get Mufasa killed but the plan backfired and gave him hi scar

I was 2 years old when this movie was released on vhs, and i learned how to rewind a vcr with this movie, and after my 52nd time watching this movie the vcr ate the lion king, and i cried for 2 days until i got a new copy, and now i get a copy of the movie every time it gets re-released.

To be fair, mufasa is a Lion who only knows the world as he has seen it. So he believes that his whole world and thus everything the light touches, is his

i was at a different point when i saw the lion king and didnt really get the same impact from mufasa's death that i can remember, but the music department of my high school took a trip to New York a few years back to see the musical version. We had a sort of behind the scenes tour before hand, though, during which they explained the swords and costume choices of more human characters. it was after that tour that watching the musical left a VERY different feeling than i expected to get out of the musical version of an old disney classic. That's when the "realness" of the story really sunk in...

@poppyraima5342

I've always been a life-long _Lion King_ fan, but I never really appreciated the 'realness' of the story until I started getting into sub-Saharan African music (particularly South African music) and realizing how much they were influential to the film and Broadway show's soundtrack, because once you actually learn the words to the various isiZulu songs and lyrics you realize how deep the themes run (especially in the Broadway show's 'exclusive' songs) and it just makes the whole thing that much more powerful.

I'd imagine that he'd be under contract to deny that they took the concept since the movie was so heavily advertised as being disney's first original movie. Also it would look very bad on him and probably ruin his chances of being hired to work on any future projects.

@James Mulchrone is most likely accurate. Still feels terrible. The whole discussion about showing the death of Mufasa - and how we already know anime have always taken the challenge of portraying death and its finality. The fact that this was not a slightly inspired clone but a blatant copy in characters, theme, art, story. The fact that this was touted mainly as an original idea. The fact that they got away with it and now want to milk it again with a remake in the age of internet.

He was actually super chill and cool, honestly surprised me a lot. Thanks for this interview ❤️

Is so cool to see the director of one of the greatest animated films of all time be so cool and humble. Also, kudos to him for designing Ursula. As an artist myself I have always considered that design quite brilliant. Also, what is wrong with bad guy themes? They are awesome! Frollo's "Hellfire", Scar's "Be Prepared" and Ursula's "Poor Unfortunate Souls" are the bests. Ratcliffe's "Savages", even though is not a villain-only song is very good as well.

7:23, according to one of the Disney shows spun off from The Lion King though not the movie itself, Scar was originally named Taka before getting his scar and accompanying nickname

I hate to say this, but Lebo's words were in Zulu, not Swahili.

Nants ingonyama bagithi baba (sithi uhm ingonyama) Nants ingonyama bagithi baba (sithi uhm ingonyama) Ingoyama nengw namabala (repeated) Translated: "Here comes a lion father (Oh yes, it's a lion) Here comes a lion father (Oh yes, it's a lion) A lion comes to this open place (repeated) If you're having trouble reading the top part, try it like: NAAAAAAAAAAAAAANTS ingonYAAAAAAAAA ma ga bi thibaba (sithi uuuuuuuuuuhm in go nya maaaaaaaaa) Also, "nengw" is pronounce "nen gwey" so In go yama - nen gweynama bala

I don't care if he or someone else was subcontiously inspired by Kimba, because Osamu Tezuka, the guy who created Kimba, was largely inspired by classic Disney films. Just look at Astro Boy and you can see parallels. It's each artist and studio inspiring one another.
