When they animated the original lions they studied lions up close. When they animated this movie they assumed lions were stoic and only selected footage that suited that perception. Making an animated lion pin their ears back when they are scared or angry, is not applying human emotions to an animal. It's literally just what lions do when they feel that way. But in this movie they make their ears barely move outside when they flick them for 'realism.' Clearly they only observed sleepy lions if this is the only emotion they got out of them. The only two human facial movements you cannot apply to lions is puckering your lips and showing the whites of your eyes.

As realistic this movie looks, this version to me lacked a lot of color within the planes of Africa and emotion from the animals. All say this, the best quality of this movie, would have to be timon and Pumba. Love how even though its the same story, the jokes here are refreshing and the chemistry between the two are unique, but respects the original. I wish the whole movie did the same.

Shenzi _is_ the leader of the hyenas in the original as well, but she's just a little smarter than the rest and her status as a leader of the whole clan is much less noticeable as she's just shown to be with the other two. Spotted hyenas are interesting animals, because for some reason they're super matriarchal: females are bigger and stronger and males are always much lower in rank than them (even baby females have more authority,) so Shenzi being a more active and competent leader here reflects that. I like that little realism, since the lions are also shown a little more realistically than your average animal story with their pride mostly consisting of females and one or couple males. In real life, hyenas are smart social animals who are an important part of the real circle of life and one of the criticisms of the og movie was the way they were _all_ portrayed as stupid barbarians and automatically evil (while it didn't include the hyenas themselves, maybe the second movie's "we are one" message was made partially because of that.) This is also addressed in the newer Lion Guard show, where there are good hyenas despite the lions originally thinking they're all bad. One of the biggest criticisms (well, among many) of this remake is the way they completely removed Rafiki hitting Simba's head to teach him that past may hurt but you can learn from it. Like that was one of the major messages of the og story. I guess the movie creators thought it wasn't "serious" enough.... I also noticed they made kid Simba much less of a little shit and he is innocent in a more cutesy way here, probably because he looks so adorable to us human viewers now. The big part of his character as a child was that he was full-of-himself and wanted to be a king to do whatever he wants (kind of like certain _other_ lion....) Speaking of him, yeah, Scar is much more serious. I think they did that partially to make the movie more "serious" and partially to avoid queer-coding. In the past, Disney villains were quite often given stereotypical gay traits like flamboyance and sassiness and more "feminine" body language and diva mannerisms. In fact, Scar and some others were designed by a gay man. However, in later years, there's been more criticism for making villains like that, so I think Disney wants to avoid that now...even though LOTS of gay people LOVE these Disney villains and simply would like to have non-evil gay characters too. And like you said, the music and singing isn't as strong in this one. Like it's notably softer and it doesn't help that the visuals are also much duller. The one with the most oomph is the new modern song they included.

They basically said: "Here's what we're gonna do, we're gonna do it exactly like the original detail by detail but removing all emotional expressions from the characters to make it plain, dull, boring and lifeless. Let's basically remove the charm of the original."

There's a room for creativity in the animation medium that can't be recreated with the live action. The romance, the feelings, the magic of animation just can't be recreated, and I think that this is something important that we should all know. I've noticed that in a lot of Disney's animations, they can add in a lot of different elements for romantic scenes, they can work with the coloring, movements, expressions, the surroundings to create the effects that they want, but with the real life action, it just feel lifeless and lacking the beauty of the original ones. You can animate animals, but putting those animals into live action remakes just wouldn't work because they're all CGI and looks so bad.

The Original Lion King was the first Movie i have ever seen in Cinemas when i was a Kid After so many Years when this Version came to Theaters i was sitting in the Cinema with Tears in my Eyes So many Feelings

I love the old and the new Lion King. The old one has always been my top favorite Disney movie of all time. I feel like there’s no way to win if the director would change, add, or kept the original story because the 1994 movie is special to so many.

I also feel like this movie follows the original a little bit too closely sometimes. A few little things were added that weren’t in the original, but it doesn’t feel like enough to differentiate it from the original animated one. Whereas something like 2016 Jungle Book feels like it’s own thing, it takes elements from the animated version, but it also gives the audience something new in return. It feels like they played it a little too safe with the 2019 Lion King.

Watching it in the theaters greatly helped to make it happen. But then again, I hate what they did with Scar, and especially with how Be Prepared was reduced to basically nothing.

One thing I can at least appreciate about this movie is they re-did the soundtrack instead of reusing the old one, AND they mixed in more animal biology by having Shenzi be the queen of the hyena clan, compared to the original where Scar automatically controlled all of the hyenas by himself. I like that Shenzi is an established leader on her own, and then Scar has to convince her and her clan to join his side.

Speaking as someone who literally grew up with the original, it will always be better due to the huge impact on my childhood. However, I loved this version just as much. My only critiques were that “Be Prepared” could’ve been longer with some of the original lyrics, the deleted song “Where Do I Belong” should’ve stayed and had Young Simba sang it as he flees before transitioning back to Pride Rock where Scar takes the throne, the fight between Shenzi and Nala and Simba and Scar could’ve been longer, and the song during Simba’s return should’ve been “He Lives In You” and used Beyoncé’s song for the end credits. 🦁💛🧡❤️

I think this is the only live action remake that is not needed, as Disney shot himself in the foot with ultra realism (Nat Geo Wild documentary). It was necessary to at least cut out all the musical numbers, so as not to create the effect of the uncanny valley. In addition, Scar himself is not perceived here as a character who fawns on Mufasa, but strangely enough, a lion who is ready to kill is only the character turns away.

@matveynoname7083

Жыл бұрын

But the CGI itself looks just divine, they did a great job here.

The 1994 version will always be a classic but this version however made animals look and behave more realistic as if they were all an actual part of nature. There’s also many possibilities that could’ve happened in either versions that actually happen all the time in the wild. 1. Cats always land on their feet which means Mufasa would’ve used that same talent to his advantage which would’ve resulted in survival meaning he would’ve still been king, let alone alive. Cats twist and turn their bodies so that they land on their feet. 2. Since Scar and Mufasa are technically brothers, Scar would’ve been just as much of a king of a pride as Mufasa was. They both would’ve ruled the pride together as equals. In that actually happened, Scar would not be the jealous bastard we all know him as. 3. If Scar took over the pride, he would’ve killed all the cubs so that he would have a chance to score wit Sarabi and the rest of the females which means Nala would’ve been dead and so would’ve Simba. 4. As much as I hate to even think bout this particular fact of life and in this case, lion law, when Simba became of age, he would’ve been kicked out of Mufasa’s pride to take over a pride of his own. Ironically, since Simba was away during Scar’s reign, that meant Simba had an actual chance of challenging Scar. 5. Shenzi addressed bout hyenas and lions being at war since the beginning of time. That is an actual truth. She was referring to all the times that lions and hyenas fought and even killed each other over food, territory, and even just to kill. Just like what the hyenas tried to do to Simba and Nala, hyenas and lions will stoop so low as to even killing each other’s young to avoid future competition over God knows what. Lions are also responsible for 70% of the death of hyenas. 6. Although Mufasa was strong enough to fend off an entire clan of hyenas, it’s still however possible that the clan together as a whole or at least 20 or more hyenas would be enough of hyenas to have just as much of a possible chance of killing Mufasa as he does of killing them, the same way they all lunged at Scar and killed him for ratting them out. Plus, normally, when a lion lunges at a hyena, he or she wouldn’t throw that hyena around. He or she would at least just try to kill it on the very spot. But, I guess since there was God knows how the hell many hyenas, Mufasa wouldn’t’ve had exactly enough time to strangle a hyena to death at least not unless he snapped open the neck or the back of said hyena. 7. When Shenzi brought up the irony to Scar bout a hyena’s stomach never being full just before the hyenas killed him, this could be about some certain acids hyenas have in their stomach that allows them to digest even bones except however for horns. 8. You ever notice all the lionesses standing by while Scar had an oryx kill or I think it may have been a gemsbok or a blesbok. This could be on account of males including Scar often dominating the kills and eating first before everybody else in the pride. Sometimes, after the males are finished wit their part of dinner, the scraps would be the only thing left for everybody else in the pride, let alone the hyenas leading to part of the irony of the ancient war lions have wit hyenas. 8. Males always want loyal females. I know, right? In the 1994 version, there was a deleted where Scar was hitting on Nala to the point where she bitchsmacked him. When a lioness is disloyal to the males of a pride, they kick her out of said pride. That’s exactly what happened in the deleted scene of the 1994 version. 9. Mostly in the Lion King 2: Simba’s Pride, an entire gang of lionesses could’ve easily overpowered any male the same way they were gaining the upper hand on Simba twice which means they could’ve definitely overpowered Scar as well. 10. There was word that the roars in the Lion King of 1994 were not actual roars. There were some roars coming from tigers, mostly from Scar but some of those roars were the same roars used by the lion in the MGMUA logo like when Mufasa asked if Scar was challenging him over the throne, when Mufasa was beating the shit out of the hyenas, and when Simba was fighting Scar. People also made Sabor in Tarzan sound not just like a leopard but also like a lion, a tiger, and a cougar as well. The makers of Kung Fu Panda also made Thai Lung sound like a leopard, a lion, and a tiger as well as even a bear. In the first Kung Fu Panda, the makers had Tigress sound like a cougar instead of a tiger then in Kung Fu Panda, they made her sound like a lion, still instead of a tiger. Sometimes, people even make tigers in movies sound like lions. Idk why people make animals sound like other animals but I can only assume, they haven’t done much research.

Haha really? Its only fairytale for kids. Why is someone looking for logic in this?

I went to see this in theaters because my sister insisted and our grandparents agreed to take us there. I can definitely say that I regret it. Two years later, I asked her about it: she regrets it too. There were great movies to watch in movies and this is the one we choose out of all of them.

Yes, the “live action” remake that has no live action footage in it whatsoever. Except maybe the ground. And even then I’m pretty sure more than half of it is visual effects.

Rowan Wilkinson: If this is where the monarchy is heading, count me out. John Oliver: If this is where the monarchy is heading, "county out"?!!!!! If there was anything good to come from this movie, it's YMS dragging it.

Here's some differences: Rafiki now looks like he's supposed to, in that he no longer has a tail. Instead of using the same fruit from the ceremony as a snack, now the ceremonial dab uses red roots. This change was because the fruit from Rafiki's tree doesn't actually look like it did in the cartoon, nor does it contain red juice. They fixed Rafiki's ambidexterity, in that now he's consistently right handed. Be prepared was all but scrapped because most of it was used to ridicule the hyenas into joining him, when in reality, hyenas are actually extremely intelligent. Now the song is more of a war chant. When Timon discovers Simba, instead of lifting a paw, which would've been impossible for Timon's size and strength, now he just checks the teeth. Animals such as the gopher, giant anteaters and swinging monkeys are no longer there because they aren't native to that part of Africa. The leaf carrying ants were kept to keep the circle of life number exactly as is, and because they later help Rafiki discover Simba is alive. The elephant graveyard was completely redone because the skulls shown in the cartoon actually aren't anatomically correct. Now there's just a bunch of bones lying around a cave. Lions are no longer purring. Instead of getting stuck under a tree root, now Pumbaa just slips and falls.

30:08 - 30:23 it reference to the live action movie of the beauty and the beast of Disney but this scene of Timón and Pumbaa is still very funny 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

this version of be prepared is so underwhelming, also the raw emotion when scar throws mufasa off the cliff in the animated film cant not be imitated in the live action, that was underwhelming as well, cuz the animated film the light faded around scars face as he said long live the king

im surprised no one was like oh scar why didn’t you try to save mufasa

* I am simba son of mufasa * I got chills for 20 seconds

The way Simba and Napa’s scenes with the hyenas are reminds me of Thor and the Frost Giants in the first Thor movie

Love ur videos

7:54 NGL, I totally relate to Nala here - she's that one kid at school who refuses to watch movies that are rated higher than PG.

Tim did you know they looked at real lion movements and behaviors for the movie

32:40 this is probably one of the only lines i would’ve like to see in the original

The face Tim gives on the thumbnail is amazingly accurate

I actually liked Aladin and Beauty and the Beast live action, but this one just wasn't for me. I'm still glad you shared with us. Have you seen Enchanted? A great mix between animated and live action IMO. 🐾🐾🍻

Pumba reminds me a lot of Hoqsquel from The Spiderwick Chronicles tbh, especially w/ Seth Rogen now as the voice of both characters lol. Would love to see a reaction to The Spiderwick Chronicles on the channel someday, it's such a good film.

I love the animation because the lions remind me of actual cats, but I dislike everything else.

Your reaction are so good 😊

it's a little funny that YMS has a review out on this movie, which is longer than its entire run time ..and uh, it's only part 1 of the review

More like, 'how to ruin the work of hard-working 2D animators of the original movie'. I wonder how they feel when Disney announced, "hey, nice work, but we're gonna replace your work with 3D now. Just because."

The original still exists, this film didn’t replace it. They can both exist at the same time, chill out.

29:04-29:18 that’s the new song spirit from Beyoncé. Also, she voiced adult Nala from the live action remake.

11:17 - 11:52 I'm sorry, I cannot forgive them for cutting down Be Prepared with Chiwetel Ejiofer's great voice spoken singing but they kept Hakuna Matata same length with Seth Rogen's off key voice belting.

Agreed

Well for me adding some unique scenes and I liked some and many parts of it

Tim, I KID YOU NOT...I literally rewatched this movie yesterday! I honestly gotta say that it is fantastic imo. We all know it isn't 20% of the original, but this movie does certain things better than the og. I loved the scarier Scar(even tho Jeremy Irons' version is the best villains ever). I think this is the most underrated remake

@@justsomeguywholovesberserk6375 I agree that the og Scar is the best. But the remake at least made him a little scarier. And I was incredibly grateful that it was even in the movie, because of all the rumors it wasn't gonna be

They did to The Lion King what Limp Bizkit did to music in the late 90s. I did like the visuals, hyenas, and Timon and Puumba though, the ending was pretty cool too.

32:08 This scene reminds me of the ending of Khumba (2013) tbh

I think I like most of the live action more cause they are more realistic and I was only a child when I watched the originals, me remembering live action better

Okay, I'm going to say the thing you don't say you never ever say: James Earl Jones is bad in this. He's doing something he did over 20 years ago, and he sounds so old, so bored, and I feel *so* sorry for him. :(

Mufasa's death looks better in this when it's done by Danny Devito instead of Scar (There is video about that)

I'll never forgive them for adding that Beyoncé song to the "Simba running through the desert" scene. The African chant in the original was just perfect. This film was already not great (except the amazing animation) but after this scene, I was done with it !

And yes, Scar, in this version, is none other than Baron Mordo from both Dr. Strange movies.

It’s not ruined. The original is still there my man.

🎶 Can you feel the love TONIGHT 🎶 ...During the DAY 😒😒😒

the biggest problem with this movie being in live action is that the animals cant have near as much expression as they could in animation and that sometimes it was hard to tell the adult lions apart from one another

Is it a crime that I actually like this remake a lot and the recreations of all the songs and the beautiful African habitats? I'm a sucker for animals! Banish me!

Ok i tripped out i confused this with the live action jungle book. I probably never even seen this one

Tbh I actually liked this one

0:13 - 0:21 The ground! The ground is probably the *only* real thing.

fun fact the only real moment is when some of the producers and director actually shot the sunrise at the beginning and the rest is all CGI
