@@lol-pf7dl I'm English so my perspective might be different, but I honestly agree because of how the tone of his voice and mannerisms go. He just comes across as so charismatically deceitful.
A bunch of other people have already said it but; I think the biggest thing against this is that when Simba returns, Scar thinks that he's Mufasa, which implies he didn't actually do anything with the body and was therefore able to doubt that Mufasa had died.
Mufasa's explanation of the food chain is awesome. He explains death to a kid, in a meaningful way and respecting Simba's intelligence and ability to learn. He leaves the gory details of being eaten or decomposing, but still introduce their place in the Circle of Life.
I believe that Matpat is really enjoying this, not so much because of the theory itself but because he can be the "you didn't check this fact" guy for once
Also when simba comes back at the end, doesn’t scar say something like “mufasa I thought you were dead” and if scar had eaten him, he wouldn’t even think that it could’ve been mufasa, as he’d have eaten him
@@vfe3fghwevkcdegfwf2wegwykv42 I don't think someone who can take over an entire KINGDOM while controlling a different group (hyenas) is dumb. If Scar is dumb despite of all of his accomplishments, that is one lucky lion. The most plausible explanation as to why he reacted that way is most likely because of shock. Or the fact that there are no more male lions around the time of Scar's rule. So naturally, he'd assume a male lion standing in front of him would be Mufasa because Simba is literally his son and they would naturally look somewhat similar
How Pride Rock ended up so desolate and wasteland-ish is because you have (in movie presentation) two massive groups of predators hunting in the same turf. Overtaxing of the prey animals tips the scales, and yes, when Scar becomes Lion Tartar is when things start to go right, because Simba tells the Hyenas to beat it, thus lowering the number of Predator groups back down to 1. That's how I see it anyway.
It's also possibly supernatural, cause why on earth would a ghost of Mufasa appear in an otherwise grounded film (as grounded as it can be what with the talking animals and all)?
I always imagined that Mufasa's body naturally decayed, and became a patch of grass beneath the tree he died under. Y'know, because of the whole speech he gave Simba. I imagine that spot being kinda like a grave site that Simba and his pride visit to pay respects. Anyway, thank you for debunking this theory.
i would have rather want that than what actually happened to his body, he didnt turn into grass and instead his body was consumed by vultures and/or bugs, my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined
Ya but that doesn’t change the teeth shape. However, it is possible from a fictional perspective since this would further add to scar’s character. Also the fact that scar isn’t an IRL lion and doesn’t follow all their behaviors
Also don’t forget that Scar thought Simba was Mufasa when he returned to reclaim the Pride Lands, meaning that Scar probably just left Mufasa’s body in the gorge and never went back to it. It was plausible to Scar that Mufasa survived, which wouldn’t make sense if Scar ate Mufasa.
Anyone else remember the fact scar referred to himself as a monkeys uncle to Simba at the start? And then plays with a baboons skull. Now THATS symbolism.
@Gianna Blades it’s been a hot minute so I clearly got mixed up, but it’s still not a far leap in logic. I know baboons get mentioned soooomewhere...hm
Some more proof is that when Scar sees Simba, he mistakes Simba for Mufasa, and if you’ve eaten something (or someone in this scenario) you know it’s gone. So, yes, MatPat is right.

Honestly he didn't have to go through this thoroughly to prove it Legit for the hyenas dont eat lions claim he could have just mentioned how scar was eaten by hyenas at the end, and for the skull part he could have just simply stated that the skull looks absolutely nothing like lion skulls
Do you really think they could finish an at least 330 pound lion with a rapidly spreading fire and many enemy lions around them? I bet they just killed Scar and bounced.
If we believe that the skull in the scene is in fact Mufasa, then I think the most logical conclusion is that Scar took the skull as a sort of trophy for him to privately gloat over. Like serial killers take keepsakes from victims to relive their murders.
@@teletoonandytvarchives4004 Never trust Tik Tok as a reliable source because it's not. And the skull is way to wide to be a lion's skull, it was a primate skull.
Bro you uploaded a Food Theory and accidentally called it Film Theory a few times because it was about ads, now we're doing a Film Theory about a Lion eating another Lion and you didn't think to put any crossovers in there?
I’m not try to be mean but Matt is talking animals eating other animals not animals eating food or types of food and food theory is about cooked or edible food that you can eat
“Hyenas don’t eat lions” If they are willing to pay attention to the kind of scull that scar is holding, how did they miss that SCAR WAS EATEN BY THE HYENAS.
By the way this is another theory from him he said"scar escape and was killed by humans and was turn into a rug and you can see the rug in the Disney show Hercules"and again this was the by film theory
Matpat: Doesn't trust Tiktok Most of society, who doesn't even like Tiktok: Ah yes, I see you are a man of culture as well. (Edit: thanks I didn't notice) (2nd Edit: There you go)
the fact that 6 adult male lions somehow found peace and decided to group up as their own different kind of pride without fighting for leadership all the time is already impressive to me. but its even more metal that all they did was eradicate other prides.
Yeah And biologically speaking if I remember correctly The mapago brothers were two families of brothers that joined together and became the genghis Kahn of lions with not only one of the largest territories but the longest reign of any male lions The only thing that brought them down was another group of about four male lions while the brothers had lost two of them and were about 8-9 years of age(lions averagely live for about 10-12)
I would also like to point out that the "Lions" skull shown has a much thinner and longer noise than a lion nose. So, that as well says it is not a lion skull.
@@AlfredEiji Well it's also necessary. The worst problem within the theorizing community has always been the poorly thought out theories that go viral and are accepted as fact by the masses who prefers to listen to a short condensed idea over a carefully explained analysis And this phenomenon increased exponentially with the rise of TikTok. We need people to get things straight. And MattPat had always been interested in chasing trending topics (most proefessional youtubers do) so he'd be suited for it
They might have intentionally made the skull a baboon skull to parallel how a baboon was Mufasa's friend. Showing a dark twist with a deceased baboon being Scar's play-thing.
It could also be more referencing Hamlet, which was where the story of The Lion King originally got inspiration from (I know that there was some Japanese movie in the middle, but whatever). Likely a reference to the skull of Yorick, which Hamlet is most iconically known for holding. Since we don't have humans in this movie, the skull of a baboon would have been the closest thing to a human skull that they could get.
That actually makes a lot of sense. You could also apply that to the fact that Zazu was a servant or helper to Mufasa, and then becomes a slave to Scar, thus parallelism again
the irony in this theory is that when i was a kid i asked my dad about wether the skull belonged to the brother lion aswell.. and he was a big fan of animals and stuff and he even told me that it most likely was the skull of a Mandrill, and Rafiki is a mandrill so it would make sense that they would use the same type of monkey for that skull.. but that's talked about in the video as well and i am glad how in detail matpat goes with these!
Did your dad didn't tell you that lions wouldn't ever try to hunt a baboon or a honey bagder? They prefer to hunt a crocodile rather than those 2.. Unless it's in a very desperate condition like prolonged draught.. That baboon skull is a very nice touch to say it's a very desperate time..
@@nu-nisamiracle2401 it is after all just a skull laying around, there is no context to it.. scar just picks it up to play with, there is a lot of bones laying around in these zones, even more so if a drought and famine have affected it, so its no probe that scar eat the thing that he is holding, it is not important either.
I always thought people were idiots because the entire time I knew it was a baboon skull. My sister showed me it and I was like "boi these people dum dums"
"When your dad dies and you have to act like you didn't just do a choreographed musical number called “I just can't wait to be king”" Edit: for those who are saying "stolen meme" 15:40
To be honest I think scar was just an incapable leader that didn't plan for the dry season because of course we're in Africa and Africa has periods of dry seasons so his poor leadership skills almost doomed The pride because he refused to follow the ways of nature any refused to learn the lessons that Mufasa was instilling in Simba at least in my opinion that's how I want to see that and it wasn't Simba that returned the reins it just so happens that the dry season finally came to an end

I always thought that the pridelands became so unfertile because Scar and the Hyenas ate too many animals all the time, and didn't let them repopulate.
That explains the lack of animals, but not the lack of rain and grass. That last part can only be explained as a cosmic punishment for Scar's actions, an unnatural unbalance or a huge coincidence. Now, imagine being crowned king just to face the dryest year in the Pridelands just because of coincidence or bad timing. That would be like being elected president just before a pandemic.
@@Alejandroigarabide It’s also very Shakespearean. Just like this story draws a lot from Hamlet, Macbeth also features scenes where nature is discussed as being corrupted and turned on its head after the unnatural death of the king and break in succession.
“Hyenas don’t eat lions” So you just gonna skip over the fact that the three hyenas tried to eat Simba, Nala and Zazu at the beginning of the movie? Don’t ever trust Tik Tok kids. Edit: Yeah just don’t use tik tok period lol
Now punctuation is important here. Are you saying not to trust kids on tik tok? Don't trust those tik to kids. Or are you trying to appeal to children about not trusting the app tik tok? Don't ever trust tik tok, kids.
Well, I think it’s more of a spur of the moment reaction than anything. Seeing how Scar only knew Simba as a kid and that Simba grew up to look a lot like Mufasa, he probably freaked out thinking the worse possible scenario. I mean, even his mother had mistaken Simba as Mufasa.
11:41 So the entire scene was meant to give those who knew all this a heart attack that Rafiki was dead, when, prior to that, he basically held Simba up for the kingdom and then screwed off somewhere. And lived through the ordeal, even being able to help Simba, Nala, Timon and Pumba.

There was no time to eat him. There was fire in every direction. Unless they can finish a 400 pound lion in a minute they didn't eat him.

Do you really think they could finish an at least 330 pound lion with a rapidly spreading fire and many enemy lions around them? I bet they just killed Scar and bounced.

It's actually one of the more basic gimmicks of editing floating around
If we believe that the skull in the scene is in fact Mufasa, then I think the most logical conclusion is that Scar took the skull as a sort of trophy for him to privately gloat over. Like serial killers take keepsakes from victims to relive their murders.
I do think it was probably a primate skull though.

Same with a random lion
They might have intentionally made the skull a baboon skull to parallel how a baboon was Mufasa's friend. Showing a dark twist with a deceased baboon being Scar's play-thing.
It could also be more referencing Hamlet, which was where the story of The Lion King originally got inspiration from (I know that there was some Japanese movie in the middle, but whatever). Likely a reference to the skull of Yorick, which Hamlet is most iconically known for holding. Since we don't have humans in this movie, the skull of a baboon would have been the closest thing to a human skull that they could get.
I thought it might be a hyena
That actually makes a lot of sense. You could also apply that to the fact that Zazu was a servant or helper to Mufasa, and then becomes a slave to Scar, thus parallelism again
@@cdesigner9178 What Japanese movie?

i like how matpat said he appreciated his editors.
the irony in this theory is that when i was a kid i asked my dad about wether the skull belonged to the brother lion aswell.. and he was a big fan of animals and stuff and he even told me that it most likely was the skull of a Mandrill, and Rafiki is a mandrill so it would make sense that they would use the same type of monkey for that skull.. but that's talked about in the video as well and i am glad how in detail matpat goes with these!
Did your dad didn't tell you that lions wouldn't ever try to hunt a baboon or a honey bagder? They prefer to hunt a crocodile rather than those 2..
Unless it's in a very desperate condition like prolonged draught..
That baboon skull is a very nice touch to say it's a very desperate time..
@@nu-nisamiracle2401 it is after all just a skull laying around, there is no context to it.. scar just picks it up to play with, there is a lot of bones laying around in these zones, even more so if a drought and famine have affected it, so its no probe that scar eat the thing that he is holding, it is not important either.

To be honest I think scar was just an incapable leader that didn't plan for the dry season because of course we're in Africa and Africa has periods of dry seasons so his poor leadership skills almost doomed The pride because he refused to follow the ways of nature any refused to learn the lessons that Mufasa was instilling in Simba at least in my opinion that's how I want to see that and it wasn't Simba that returned the reins it just so happens that the dry season finally came to an end

Since The Lion King was loosely inspired by Hamlet I always assumed this was a visual gag referencing the 'alas, poor Yorick' scene
That's likely what it was
out of context but hannibal just apearing out of no were is now my favorite scene ever ahahahah
I always thought that the pridelands became so unfertile because Scar and the Hyenas ate too many animals all the time, and didn't let them repopulate.
I thought they mentioned that in the movie tbh
That explains the lack of animals, but not the lack of rain and grass. That last part can only be explained as a cosmic punishment for Scar's actions, an unnatural unbalance or a huge coincidence.
Now, imagine being crowned king just to face the dryest year in the Pridelands just because of coincidence or bad timing. That would be like being elected president just before a pandemic.
I also thought that Shenzi or Sarabi mentioned that there's no water.

I believe this might have been said but proof scar didn't eat his him is that scar had mistaken Simba as Mufasa when they meet
What a Chad right here.
Well, I think it’s more of a spur of the moment reaction than anything. Seeing how Scar only knew Simba as a kid and that Simba grew up to look a lot like Mufasa, he probably freaked out thinking the worse possible scenario. I mean, even his mother had mistaken Simba as Mufasa.
I don't think that was true at all the way I took it was that couldn't believe it was him even though he knew Mufasa was dead.
