      After the original film was released the LGBT complained Jeremy Irons performance was too British gay and was presenting a negative stereotype because he was the villian. So obviously they had to ditch the outrageous queeny number.

Lemme tell you as someone who's actually studied CGI, at least enough to be able to you know give good critque on it in the future, yes the animations can have little ticks here and there to let us know what the animals are thinking and feeling. But let's look at Mufasa's death. In the original, Simba calls and screams for help MULTIPLE TIMES before breaking down and nuzzling up to his dead father. His ears are pulled back against his head, his eyes flit about and his tail flicks nervously. it's clear he's afraid and scared and upset. With the remake, he calls for help like once, and *THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE SIMBA'S EARS PINNED AGAINST HIS HEAD.* Why. If they had done that it would've been at least better. But no he just stares blankly at his father's corpse, paws at it a little, and then curls up next to him. We only feel sad, because the music tells us to feel sad.

      Or leave the lions expressionless and realistic....and do the story LIKE a nature documentary. I'd have tipped the hat I don't wear to that idea as well. It would have been a daring, creative idea. Like the movie The Bear (1988) The animals were real and didn't emote like animation, but it was still a good movie. Something like The Bear SHOULD have been what this LK should have been because they wanted to go to the realistic route.

    I really hate the idea that "realistic" must mean "dull, lifeless colors". Real life environments can be very bright and colorful. Just go look at some photographs of different landscapes.
    Disney wanted this movie to be super realistic with its animal characters... despite being a movie about funny talking singing animals that act human. It's just not going to work. You have to choose one or the other. Some of my friends were like, "Well, real life animals aren't expressive!" But we, humans, are the audience and we, humans, are built to read facial expressions. That, and real animals can be very expressive. Not on the level of human expression, but more so than this movie.

    "It's like a slightly off NatGeo episode with even less expression. HOW?! This is a work of fiction, it's animation-" and *_THAT_* is why so many more people are finally seeing the issue. And the issue is that we see light everyday, we see shadow everyday, we see texture, emotion, animals, water, the living world has so much to offer and CGI can only do so much to recreate it. If we see something off, instinctively we go "oh weird." Because while we don't really register those thing at the time of seeing them, when it's recreated in CGI, _that's_ when we remember and go "oh huh that's off."
    Now these live action remakes aren't completely terrible ideas, but with the Disney Renaissance films the big 4? No. They should've left well enough alone with those. And I actually don't even mind the LA Aladdin. But with the Lion King ,so many people have said they should've done this live action film with Mufasa and Scar growing up actually really get a feel for their relationship at least then it would be different. And yeah I agree. Bring something new to the table at least. And it's funny favreau did this and also the jungle book because that had the perfect mix of realism and emotion but for some reason he didn't like that. Why I've no idea.

    Interesting fact here: The director (who also directed the live action The Jungle Book), didn't like how "cartoony" the animals were in The Jungle Book live action film. He said he wanted the animals to look more "realistic." He felt like the animals had too many face expressions. So when he directed this movie, he took that opportunity to make the animals more "realistic", and he took it at full force! This is no joke, this was literally said by the director.
    And the reason why this REALLY pissed off Disney fans the most, then any other shitty Disney live action flick, is because this is The Lion King! One of the TOP, and I mean ONE OF THE TOP BEST Disney films of all time! Not to mention, it's personally MY favorite Disney film of all time too, just to see that film reduced to....THIS! Is REALLY insulting! The Lion King live action movie deserved better! I'm not a parent, but if I was, I would NEVER show my children this! I would want to show my kids how FUN a Disney film can be! With all the colorful characters, songs, animations, everything! And if you're a parent reading this, DON'T let your children watch this! Or any of these Disney remakes!

When I saw one of the older sisters biting her little sister's tail, I could both see and hear how mad the little sister was, and she had a helluva lot more emotion than Nala did when she challenged Shenzi to a fight at the Pride Rock battle (which is a scene where I would expect to see a similar expression).

    Yes! I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thinks Black Cauldron would be perfect for the live-action remake fever Disney is experiencing. There's so much more they could do with that movie...like make it a franchise since it's a book series (The Chronicles of Prydain) and they wouldn't have to cram it all into a single animated film. If Disney would be willing to take it seriously and keep its dark, almost horror elements (such as the creation of the cauldron-born), they could bring in a different audience to their films and, possibly, surprise those who had never heard of their animated telling of the books. The only thing I would be sad about would be that the late John Hurt wouldn't be able to reprise his role as the Horned King.

    Unlike other live action remakes that tried to add a bit more context or stake to the story, this one actively removed elements due to political correctness. Goose-stepping hyenas and dead elephant bones seemed to be too much for the PR department.
    Hell, the original had a more subtle story that heavily relates to today with political candidates trying to appease the uneducated masses with plans that would more than likely irreparably harm the economy in the pursuit of lining their own pockets under the guise of "helping women, minorities and the poor".

If you think new people need to see Lion King or something else, just do a theatrical release of the original.
