Awesome movie
This is a video about lion wandering into hyena's den. If it wasn't for his brother, there would have been 1 less lion.

(Sorry, at first wrong link was added. It's fixed now)
You should watch Lion King 1½ movie.
What does this have to do with the movie reaction?
@@p.l.j.9825 The presentation of Simba definitely echoes it.
It doesn't matter how many times I've seen the movie, the scene where Simba finds Mufasa dead in the gorge always gets me in the heart.
Made me cry in class the day after I saw it in elementary school. So embarrassing.
Me too.
I cry every time
Same
Even in the 2019 live action
The Lion King is basically the animated version of Hamlet.
And then, the sequel is more like Romeo and Juliet.
5:13 and half sister
It also ripped lots from a Japanese cartoon called Kimba the White Lion
@@IAmThatBit-- it really didn't, educate yourself with the video by YMS on the subject
Add some Henry IV.
"Make a handsome throw rug." He actually was a background rug in another movie. I forget which one, though.
It was Hercules.
The way Scar is introduced is so significant. He plays with his food and because he doesn’t go for the kill immediately he loses it. (Zazu: “didn’t your mother ever tell you not to play with your food”) He toys with Simba before ordering the hyenas to kill him. He didn’t have to say all those things to him, because he was planning to kill him all along, but he enjoys the cruelty of making his prey suffer before the end. Just look at the little smile he has when Simba runs away from him. He relishes in it a little and gives Simba a head start, and it costs him the kill, again. And even when Simba hangs from the rocks he specifically wants him to die knowing he suffered all these years for nothing thinking he killed his father. And, again, his prey escapes him because he does exactly that. It’s an interesting dynamic they gave him. Scar is, imo, one of the most evil villains in Disney movies because he isn’t just evil, he is cruel.
This is a wonderful breakdown!
It's the typical cat and mouse game
@@U-Gozoo You mean lion and mouse-game.
@@jonathanhallberg3009 lol 🤣🤣 yes that 👏👏👏 nice one
Scar, despite his actions, is not evil. He has an inferiority complex. He just wants power and ignores the wellbeing even of himself. His story is so sad and it leaks out to poison everything he was dreaming to have.
Such an impactful movie for me when I was a child and even as an adult. The scene were Rafiki points to the water and says “No… Look harder. You see he’s in you” with Mufasa echoing in the clouds “Simba” still gives me goosebumps. I think it hits me harder because my dad passed when I was 13 years years old. I’m 33 years old now and that scene still touches my heartstrings. Just a phenomenal movie!
This was the first movie I ever saw at the cinema. _Tremendous._
Seven-year-old me was SHOOK when Scar tossed Mufasa off that cliff, fr.
This is the best Disney movie, nothing touches it. The dualogue, the depth, the music by Hans Zimmer!? Nothing comes close
@@user-jg555kjl this movie and the sequel is nothing like that show☠️
@@user-jg555kjlmy dad told me the same thing, but this is still my favorite Disney movie
Hans Zimmer music...timeless. The Prince of Egypt score is my other favorite
He made the music for this?! 😮
Its still very sad that Mufasa and Scar have such a bitter and resentful relationship with each other. It was implied that Mufasa was the favorite in the family while Scar wasn't. Of course, that is not the truth but Scar perceived it that way. Its also interesting that the two are such polar opposites. From personality to build. Mufasa's only real weakness was his poor judgement of character. He knew Scar didn't like him but he never would had imagined that he'd actually try to kill him the way he did. He didn't see his brother's hatred of him until it was too late. Scar hated him so much that even when is dead, he made it so petty to made a law to NEVER mention him when he is around is both petty and sad.
That dynamic between Scar and Mufasa is rooted in a lot of real life situations between rulers and siblings, there has been quite a few situations in the same way.
@@Cramblit best prime example is Hamlet.
At least it’s not the 2019 one. Glad you got to enjoy this literal animated Disney masterpiece.
I don’t know how anyone can watch that and think it’s on par with the original. There’s absolutely no emotion behind those animals eyes.
@@dylancole1910 It was dull, and ironically lifeless. It pales in comparison that’s for sure.
Agree with everyone. 2019 version is not anywhere close to the animated version.
Yeah, that version it's bad
I personally liked the 2019 version just how phenomenally realistic everything looked
Absolutely one of Disney's greatest films. Don't bother with the live action. This movie cannot be redone. It's a stand alone masterpiece.
Maybe let people watch things a and form their own opinion. Robbing people of that chance based on your experiences is selfish and narrow-minded.
So true
@@ruarikelsey1793 oh please, they were just giving their own opinion, not making them not watch it. Ever heard of recomending something? Leave them alone. Or are u just some snowflake that gets offended at everything? 🙄
1:52 “he would make a handsome throw rug” well in a later Disney movie he is a throw rug i think it was Hercules but im not sure
Yep it’s Hercules!
I highly recommend you to watch The Lion King 2: Simba’s Pride. It is a criminally underrated film. A large portion of those who have seen it opine that it’s arguably just as enjoyable as its predecessor. Some even say they liked it more than the original. That’s a tremendous testimony to its quality because we’re comparing it to not only a classic, but one that is globally the considered as the “greatest” movie ever produced by Disney.
I love the 2nd Lion King movie ❤ The scene in that movie that I really love the most was when Kira told Simba "Them? Us. Look at them. They are us. What differences do you see?
It's probably one of the better "direct to DVD" sequels Disney did back in the 90s. Not as iconic as the first film but still good. Now that Lion King 1 1/2 movie on the other hand...
10/10
The Best Animated Film I Have Ever Seen
The Lion King is a great film. Along with a great story (inspired by William Shakespeare's Hamlet), terrific animation, and an all star cast of voices, there are the lessons that are learned from this film (despite being a little rough for the younger children). Like responsibility and honor.
I rank this animated film among the great films I have ever seen. It was part of my childhood and it is a film experience I will never forget. And hopefully, you won't either. A++
I was 7 when it came out and remember how big it was… 1994 was a year for alot of great movies…
Ace Ventura: Pet Detective
The Mask
Dumb and Dumber
Forrest Gump
Shawshank Redemption
Pulp Fiction
Natural Born Killers
Interview with the Vampire
Speed
Lion King
The story the names and almost everything about this movie was inspired by Kimba the white lion.
You know as a kid I got used to characters losing one or both parents early in a movie (i.e. Bambi and Littlefoot) but Mufasa broke me because he was in a full third of the movie! Letting the viewer get to know him and form an attachment was painful enough but on top of that (unlike Bambi's mom who dies off screen or Littlefoot's mom saying her last words) they linger on his corpse for an uncomfortable amount of time as SImba tries to get him to move. It's a scene that's only meant to deliver as much pain as possible😿
Then Scar comes in to add the cherry on top the misery sundae. "Your dad is dead and it's all your fault."
I've struggled in wondering whether I should show my 6yo these movies. She already has the occasional nightmare of losing her parents in the crowd or to a T-Rex!
@@jlinkous05 I'd say absolutely show it to her. The trauma builds character. ^_^
Just have her watch the Mario Bros movie to cheer her up after that.
I just saw the musical and Mufasa's death lingers on even longer. His dead body lays there for an entire scene.
Hey Gabrielle! Have you seen 'The Prince of Egypt'? I think you'd love it as both a filmwatcher and a Christian.
I haven’t seen The Prince of Egypt, I’ll have to check it out
I'm retired now, but I was a Spanish teacher for 30 years and during much of that time I used to show Disney & Pixar films to my classes with the Spanish language audio track playing. This is one of the videos I used to show. Now every time I watch it, I hear the dialogue and songs in Spanish from my memory.
That's a really good idea, showing the Spanish audio version! We're sitting here on Duo Lingo and they're learning things naturally.
@@jlinkous05 I also used Duo Lingo with my students. I liked the platform and it supplemented the curriculum well, but the variety of activities in class had a heavy focus on audio / video media in the target language from a plethora of sources, both from the curriculum and from authentic, real-world sources. Disney / Pixar have just always been great about including multi-language audio tracks, first by offering VHS options in Spanish & French, then by offering DVDs and Streaming Media with a whole list of language options. Mixing Spanish audio with English subtitles (for the entry-level learners) on a movie that many of the kids were already familiar with made it more fun. I regularly showed Toy Story, The Lion King, and Coco for animations, as well as numerous live-action films such as Selena, Stand & Deliver, The Sea Inside, Pan's Labyrinth, Man Facing Southeast, The Official Story, and more. Obviously the more complex, thematically sober movies were reserved for the more advanced students. Maybe now is a good time to mention that at University, one of my degrees is in Communications with a specialty in Broadcast & Film Production, so I may have a bias for the media.
My Spanish teachers did this too, and I can't remember whether it was Mrs. Medina or Mrs. Martinez who showed Spanish Lion King, but I remember everyone only halfheartedly watching because we couldn't figure out what was being said XD
Scar really is the Lyin’ King…
This movie is my childhood. Omg. I would watch it religiously at my grandparents’ house, more specifically the scenes with young simba and young nala. This movie is so special to me 💖😭 and lions just happen to be my favorite animal 👀
at my last job, was talkin' to some coworkers. i asked, "favorite disney movie?" and one of them said the lion king, "i cried in the theater"
and i was doing math in my head because she just had her 22nd birthday. Turns out she meant the live action one, whereas I saw the animated one when I was 5
probably the coolest cinematic experience in my life to be in a dark room, Rafiki holding up Simba's son, and the song ends with the OF LIIIIFE--BOOM
The Lion King marks a turning point in the Hans Zimmer's career winning his first Oscar ✨
Ed was the shit hahaha. You should go way back to older Disney animation classics like Cinderella and snow white, sleeping beauty, Pinocchio etc. These are the Disney movies I grew up with a a kid. Anybody agree with me? Loved your reaction. You look absolutely adorable in your Mickey or Minnie Mouse ears.
i agree... if she hasn't seen those then she should definitely check them out
Disney brought in wild animals for the animators as live models.
Good to see this movie holds up.
Yeah, but when they put real animals on the screen people complained. People like people and human expressions, That's why animals are going extinct.
Man it is impossible to watch this movie without crying. 💔 The Lion King will always be one of the greats
One of my favorite Disney movies. Amazing soundtrack too. Although prefer when Elton John sings Circle Of Life and Can You Feel The Love Tonight. He's the one who wrote them.
Probably the greatest Disney movie of all-time ✨️... I remember as a kid seeing this in theaters (and I was blessed to see it twice at the time)... Watching Mufasa trying to save Simba in the middle of that stampede in a THEATER?!?!?... Definitely soul-shaking!!!... Glad you got a chance to check this out... Not sure if you've ever checked out Toy Story and Babe... But if you haven't, definitely check them out (and I heard you singing at the end so you definitely have a nice voice on you 👌🏾)... #LionKing #CaliforniaBlend
Never mind best Disney movie, it’s one of the best movies of all time
@@marktallentire3464 💯
The live action cannot even come close to this masterpiece...everything is perfect, the live action Although it was good at certain points, it feels lifeless, on the other hand, the Original has more impact.
@@imaxischerhangus3578 Yea, I heard the same thing... Most of the people I talked to said that the live-action was "trash", especially since it didn't capture the emotion from the animated film... This is the issue with remakes because trying to catch lightning in a bottle usually only works once... A lot of remakes (especially now) are watered-down, along with pushing certain narratives... My thing is if the story is flat, so will the movie 🎬
You just seeing The Lion King???? Well I know this will be a great video!!!
The Lion King is the Disney-ized version of Hamlet.
All the voice actors for this is like the who's who of the 90s celebrities...
it does have inspiration from the Bible... also from Shakespeare- Hamlet speicifically
I'm not sure if you have already seen it or not but Treasure planet is a great Disney movie.
The emperor's new groove and Atlantis the lost empire are also great movies as well.
Just a few suggestions 😁
This was primarily inspired by the Shakespearean play Hamlet. Following this are two more films, two animated series and a Broadway show
Also partly the story of Moses from the book of Exodus
Please watch "The Neverending Story".
And 'Labyrinth'
🔮
Great suggestion.
Let's be honest, who DIDN'T like Nathan Lane and Ernie Shelly on this movie? They were iconic favorites.
I really enjoyed your reaction, it was so wholesome and lovely, I can’t believe this is your first time watching this movie. I hate to think what you grew up with if it wasn’t classic Disney💔 but seriously most people that react to these movies, psychoanalyze and break down a lot of things that critics might be interested in but it’s nice to see just a genuine reaction💋🤙 very nicely done
The producer of The Lion King claimed that Moses and Joseph were characters who Simbas journey is partly inspired by, but it's also heavily inspired by Shakespeares Hamlet. Both stories center around a prince whos father is killed by his brother to take the throne, the uncle convinces the son to exile himself while trying to kill him, their fathers appear to their sons as spirits, and they exact revenge, but they're not identical mirrors. For instance, in Hamlet, he's indirectly responsible for his lover and mothers death rather than his fathers, and he also dies at the end after killing his uncle.
I love Hamlet, I had the opportunity to play Ophelia in a play. I didn’t realize this had a similar story. Thanks for sharing!
@@Californiablend All three Lion King films take heavy influence by Shakespeare plays. This one being Hamlet, Lion King 2 is Romeo and Juliet, and Lion King 1 1/2 is Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead
(At 16:50) oh yeah, I forgot Matthew Broderick was on this movie.
No wayyy! First time watching?
I enjoyed seeing your im impressions like this was real life happening in front of you
You should watch Lion King 2. Id love to see your reaction to it!
The greatest intro possibly ever. A true masterpiece. Arguably the most heartbreaking scene that traumatized many children. Its definitely a timeless classic.
It's a blatant rip off of Kimba the White Lion
@@steve8510 regardless of it is, Disney did it better than the original story.
This is a cute movie
It’s one of the biggest animated movies of all time!
I hate scar but man the voice actor did an awesome job! The whole cast did so amazing this movie will always be a must watch
Scar's a great heel. If Jeremy Irons wasn't excellent, that wouldn't be possible.
Jeremy irons...did an amizing job voicing Scar He knew how to put the evil and sniky plot of The character very well Also let's not forget the excellent job James Earl Jones did as MufasaMufasa.... We also had Mr Bean as zasu..
13:07 this little side shot of Mufasa, To me, he looks a little like the Grown Up Simba. Which is awesome if that was intentional by the creators
There are theories that since mufasa is the leader he’s the father of both Nala and simba but nalas eyes look more like Scars so scar was probably fooling around on the side like happens in nature sometimes.
Very nice scripture reference, cool react, Timone dancing to advertise Pumba killed me. forgot how I loved that dance, Stay safe k..
This is my favorite disney movie hands down the message and the animation are great
Mine Too and Agreed Also Scar is My Favorite Character in The Lion King!
Saw this 6 times in theaters, and so many times on home release I could recite it from memory. One of my favorites.
6 times?😱
That’s awesome 😎
Your parents are cool
Fun Fact: The Lion King was based on Mansa Sundiata Keita who was the prince of the founder of the Mali Empire and Great-Uncle of Mansa Musa The Richest Man Ever!!!
I recommend for you the lion king 2 and 3, of course the original is the Best but their still amazing
Please watch the lion king 2, Simba’s Pride
i'm surprised you watched this movie for the first time only yesterday
If this is where the monarchy is headed count me out. But Rowan still went to the coronation.
One of my favorite movies as a kid!
I used to watch this over and over again, whenever I got bowed or got sick.
The remake could have been a lot better, as the animal characters in the film looked dull and dead.
Another live action remake they did that failed the original is almost perfection
23:24 - actually, if all the herbivores were eaten by lions and hyenas, this place should be drowning in greenery.
LONG LIVE THE KING
Really wish we could have gotten a sequel, where we see mufasa and scar as children and find out how they became who they are, especially scar being so evil, it really feels like he never felt important to anyone.
I want to agree but at the same time I feel like it would be hard to have a satysfying ending on that one since... well we know what happens.
wouldn't that be a prequel?
@@craigime yes technically it's a prequel but godfather 2 was a sequel and a prequel, you can do it like that.
@@Sway22 I'm not saying it's a easy project, but I believe with the right writers, you can create something special that makes the first one mean more, because we see why the actions of those characters were inevitable.
@@christopherking4932 I feel like ot would be better if they made a movie about Ahadi and Uru (Mufasa's and Skaza's parents). And it would wnd with them being born. They would have more freedom to make an interesting story sonce we don't really know anything about those two.
Amazing reaction! I really would love to react to the rest of the franchise! I’d do it in this order: The Lion King, The Lion King 1 1/2, The Lion King 2: Simba’s Pride, and The Lion King Live Action. There is a tv series called The Lion Guard, which follows Simba and Nala’s second born Kion as he becomes the leader of the Lion Guard and protect the Pridelands from their enemies; it takes place during The Lion King 2: Simba’s Pride and not long after its ending. Also here’s some trivia; Hyenas are actually part of the feline family and a clan of hyenas are led by a female. Also in the original storyline, they actually had planned for Scar to find Simba besides Mufasa in distraught. Scar would pick him up by the mouth and attempt to kill him. Only to be interrupted by Sarabi and the lionesses, and they would’ve thought Scar had saved him. Simba would grow with Scar being his adviser. However, the production team thought it would best for him to run away in shame, so he’d be more humble and actually grew up from his carefree life style to take his place. 🦁💛🧡❤️🖤
Another classic reaction. Ended my Monday with a laugh. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
17:22 I have been sick for 4 days and feel horrible. This made me laugh so much, thank you!
Thanks for watching! Get well soon !
Few things I met Matthew Broderick (grown Simba) when I was a child he is an amazing person, the stampede scene took the teams three years to complete and the teams were 3000 miles away from each other with some on the west coast and the rest in the east so there were a lot of phone calls, and business trips, Nathan lane ( timon) actually auditioned for the role of pumba and vis versa for pumbas voice actor but the casting thought they'd be perfect for the opposite roles... The look in Mufasa's eyes wasn't fear for himself it was for his son because he finally realized his brother would literally stop at nothing for what he wanted and that includes ki**ing whoever he thinks necessary, and with Mufasa not around Simba is defenseless....!!
CB, this movie is based on "Hamlet" a Shakespeare play. Although it has a Disney ending ;)
This movie was a huge hit. And Elton John wrote some great songs for this film. But you need to check out the "honest trailers" of this film. It is amazing lol
Hamlet but with a happy ending.
(At 6:45) the recognizable trio everyone can't forget.
Shenzi: Whoopi Goldberg
Banzai: Cheech Marin
&
Ed: Jim Cummings
In lion culture, it would’ve been appropriate for Scar to either be dead or banished as the secondary male lion, so he was lucky to even be there. Interestingly, Scar is also considered “more attractive” in lion terms, being dark haired and having more testosterone, so it’s likely the lionesses might have preferred him as pride leader (if they weren’t “humanized” to see his poor leadership qualities of course.)
Watch lion king 2 next!!
The second one is awesome!!
The Lion King: Hamlet with animals
The Lion King 2: Romeo and Juliet with animals
The Lion King 3 (or 1 and a half): Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead with animals
Love your reactions God bless you🙌🏾 would love to see a reaction to prince of Egypt
Thank you! Coming soon
Loved your reaction! This is my favorite animated movie of all time. I'm disappointed in the live action version. It's almost word for word the same, and Scar's musical part isn't in it. I wish they would've went a different way for the live action. Expand on it, make it a bit different, etc.
If you like Clint Eastwood movies you should watch Every which way but loose and Any which way you can
Rest in peace to the beautiful Jamaican Legend Madge Sinclair. ( She also played the queen in the movie coming to America ).
I was nine years old when this movie first came out and there was nothing like seeing this in the theater. The entire theater room literally shook when Scar's giant paw slammed down at the beginning and don't even get me started on how thunderous and heart-pounding the roaring wildebeest stampede was on the big screen.
She is adorable in those Mickey ears
11:30 Scar is just terrible, he has children of his own and he dismissively says “father, son sort of thing” as if he can’t relate at all, no wonder Nuka turned out the way he did…
One thing I learned when I watch animated movies is that when the animated movies hit you with emotions, they hit you HARD.
And all because they combine the visuals with the music in such scenes.
Revisiting those scenes, whatever emotions and feelings those animated movies were trying to make me feel and have, I feel them and I have them, and that's how you tell amazing stories in this medium.
Classic from childhood. Love your reactions and personality (and looks lol). Keep it up
Sherlock Holmes
Conan the destroyer
Hell or high water
Lucky number slevin
Disney is great now how about some Don Bluth (my favorite childhood movies lol). Land before time, Secret of Nimh, An American Tale, All Dogs go to Heaven, Anastasia.
Mukfasa sent me 🤣
Love your reactions
One of the my top favorite movies.
I think the this was an adaptation of Shakespeare's Hamlet.
Please be sure to put *The Lion King II: Simba's Pride* on you watch list also.
You should probably see the sequel now Simba's pride
The Lion King is inspired by Hamlet, where a young prince seeks revenge for his father's murder at the hands of his usurper uncle.
Fun fact, all 3 Lion King movies are based off a Shakespeare play (or Shakespeare-adjacent). Famously this film is Hamlet, Lion King 2 is Romeo and Juliet, while Lion King 1 1/2 is Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead.
@@VegetaLF7 I knew about Romeo and Juliet, but not the last one. Always fun to learn, thanks 👍
I never cried when i saw this movie first time as a child i knew it was just a movie and i laughed so hard when Timon and Pumbaa always showed up 😂😂😂
9:36 "I won't be able to sit for a week"
I heard that right when I was a kid😶
9:40
Damn, they actually synced up pretty well there! 😂
your pigtails are too perfect they look fake. wish i could do that.
Favorite movie ever!!
I've watched this movie literally 1000 times, mostly when I was little. I know every line lol
Me too.
I loved your reaction I can't believe this is your first time watching this childhood classic. I went to the movies in the 90s to see it and it was great. I'm glad you got a chance to watch this great movie!!🎉🎉
Mufassas death aka the death that traumatized a whole generation
If you ever get the chance, go see Lion King the musical.
One of the best lion king reaction videos ive seen. You snapped girl
Second top favorite Disney film. 😄
You gotta see Lion king live reaction
Beyonce played Adult Nala
My little cousin loved this movie so much. When it came out for presales on VHS they were giving two animation cells with it. I bought it for him and he loved it.
I was a 90's baby and I even had the lions mane in '94!
There are so many similarities in the scene with Mufasas spirit and Star Wars Empire strikes back considering James Earl Jones also did the voice of Darth Vader.
Mufasa: "Remember who you are!
You are my son and the one true king!"
Vader: "Search your feelings, you know it to be true!"
