The Lion King 2 Simba's Pride - Nuka's death (deleted vs final comparison with subtitles)

  • Around June of this year, someone on Archive.org published a ''beta'' version of The Lion King sequel, which contained a bunch of deleted scenes, as well as others that were re-worked rather than entirely scrapped. After watching it for myself, I've decided to sit down and crop these parts separatedly, as well as add subtitles for those whose main language isn't English or cannot listen to the video at the moment.
    This one is one that everyone already knows very well. It's Nuka's last words, that were ultimately cut in the final version. A lot of people have brought up that maybe it painted sacrificing yourself to get your parents' attention as a good thing, and honestly, I can see that- It's kind of a waste though, as the final scene feels a little bit too short and it also highlights how desperatedly Nuka wanted his mom to validate him. One way or the other, I understand why it was cut.
    I hope you enjoyed the video!

    Honestly I prefer the original scene more. It gave Nuka more lines and showed that despite how Zira treated him all his life he still loved her. The part where he cracked that little joke before he died was so sad!:(

    You gotta feel bad about Nuka here; he may have been a pain but all he wanted was his mother's love. His death shows that, despite being a violent sociopath, Zira really did care about her children while Scar only cared about himself. Even Vitani and Kovu looked crushed here because in less than twelve hours, they lost their brother and their mother for a hopeless cause created by petty vengeance.

      Honestly, my theory is that scared did care about new cat. But Nuka had 4 jeans, though he couldn't be king because. He wouldn't be as strong as other lions. And yes he is a cruel and selfish villain But still in the wild father. Lions are not actually bad fathers more or less.

    It is theorized that Nuka was Scar’s actual biological son, but Scar rejected him because he saw Nuka as being too physically and mentally weak. Nuka resented Kovu because he believed that Kovu had taken his role as Scar’s successor and believed he was the rightful heir to Scar’s throne. Zira also ended up developing these same feelings towards Nuka and he became her most neglected child. All of Nuka’s life was spent trying to prove himself and gain his mother’s love and respect and prove that he could be just like Scar, but it was never enough. Scar may have rejected Nuka because he believed he was unworthy of his throne, but eventually it was not Kovu, but Nuka who ended up becoming just like Scar. Nuka may not have been as smart or cunning as Scar was, but he did inherit one major trait that made Scar who he was, his jealousy. Like Scar, Nuka became jealous of his brother for taking what he believed was his rightful spot on the throne and in the end his jealousy, hatred, and hunger to prove himself is what ended him just as it did Scar. Ironic isn’t it?

    The reason why this scene is deleted with Nuka's last word is only "I tried" is because the deleted scene serve as a bad message to younger audiences that they wil do dangerous stuff so they can make their parents proud.

    I will admit I get the reason why it was deleted, but personally I wish they could’ve actually animated it in full movie colour palettes and such, or maybe be in the movie. I’ve always seen Nuka as a character, who unfortunately got the portrayal as a “villain” but I see him as a bit of a tragic character, similar to Vitani in some ways. I wish there would’ve been more development for Nuka and at least give him a story too on why Scar neglected him and that. But I do like how this scene explores Zira’s hidden side; her love for her children, but in a more tragic way, I will say Zira is one of my favourite villains along with Scar, because of their potential and clever ideas.

    I always realise why Nuka looks like a mess and doesn’t properly clean himself causing him to itch all the time, I feel like it’s probably because he’s always depressed from his mother not paying him any attention or showing him any sign of affection! I feel real sad for him, he wasn’t a villain he was just a lost boy who wanted his mothers love! I love the shot where Zira finally smiles at her own son it was heartwarming! Nuka was misunderstood

      From what I've read, it was because there was concern that it would give kids the idea that they had to do dangerous and potentially deadly stuff to get their parents' attention. On one hand I kind of understand that and nobody wanting to feel responsible if a kid makes it into the headlines because they tried to emulate the film (especially if it was a kid with family issues like Nuka), but on the other it's not like Zira and Nuka's relationship is ever portrayed as normal. This is just another proof of how messed up both of them are and there isn't anything even remotely positive about it. I guess it's better to play it safe rather than dealing with any controversy, however.

      I understand that.
      But I think that this little scene would have been important to show the relationship between Nuka and Zira: Nuka only wanted her mother's love. The lioness only felt something for her son after she had lost him.
      Yes, for me Nuka and Vitani Scar and Zira biological cubs.
      And no, Nuka and Zira are NOT messed up both!

      @@balasabence4553 I agree that the scene would be really important and should have been kept. I think the same about Zira's original death; it would have been perfectly tragic to see her ultimately fall so deep in her hatred she would rather die than accept help or mercy from her enemies.
      When I said they were messed up, I didn't mean it in a mocking way! It's just that both Zira and Nuka are clearly not very stable; he's so starved for his mother's approval that he doesn't think twice about doing something incredibly dangerous just to get the attention he wants, and Zira is completely obsessed with revenge, to the point where she neglects her family to focus on it; and what is really tragic is that, knowing Scar, he probably never even loved her. She destroyed her sanity and family for someone who probably didn't even remember who she was.

      Yes, if we take it as Scar is portrayed in the first cartoon, this behavior is also conceivable, but fans have written a lot of "what if" stories (one of the best, if not the best, I read two days ago) where Scar loves Zira, and all three cubs.
      For me, Scar and Zira will always be Nuka and Vitani's parents, Kovu has been adopted.

    Truth is, Zira destroyed her children with her stubborness as did Simba but Simba finally chose the right course. Mufasa also destroyed Simba and who he was meant to be by how he chose to deal with the hyenas which then made Simba become the prodigal son. Mufasa and his parents treatment of Scar also comes to mind as well.
