The Lion King Article: The Lion King: Animation vs Musical

The King has Returned.

Hi guys, since my Beauty and the Beast: Film vs Musical made it on the front page. Now, it's the Lion King's turn to write about, since I only got the movie soundtrack version. I will also write the musical version too.

The Movie Version

Okay, I grew up with this movie since my childhood days, I love the song and got the soundtrack for the film. My favourite score is 'Under the Stars', because the music is soothing before gradually becoming more inspirational, African style!
I love the story very much as it introduces me about African culture, that I had always wanted to go to South Africa one day. It also teaches me about leaving the past behind!

The Musical Version

While the story-line remains the same, there are some additional songs that I really love and they are They Live in You and Endless Night. The former was in the Lion King 2: Simba's Pride as it's intro, what a great way for a movie introduction!
Endless Night is a very sad song, but one of the most excitable moments was Scar vs Simba till it leads to the dramatic ending. I really want to see this musical live so badly, maybe either on Broadway, West End or when they're doing an Asian Tour.

They Live in You!

So there you have it, the differences in the both the stage and the movie version, enjoy reading them and watch the show too!

I wish I could see this musical one day!

The life of a outlander:Mabaya's story Chapter 1

The first of the sun rays peeked over the horizon as Mabaya woke up.She let out a big yawn and heaved herself to her paws.She peeked out of the cave she lived in with all the other outlanders.She could see the fresh-kill pile,but there wasn't that much food instead of three scrawny field mice.She started to head over to the pile when something hit here.She rolled over and over when she hit into something.She then looked up into the face of Nuka.''What was that for''he asked,glaring angrily at her.''Sorry''she said scrambling to her paws.''You better be''he growled,biting at his flank.Mabaya...

Forget Me Not [Kopa VS. The Lion King]

This is NOT another rant about canon. No. This is about something I find rather sad instead of annoying.

Why doess this fandom's situation sadden me? Why do I take this so seriously? Why do I bother writing a lengthy article like this? Because I don't think Disney is ALL about enrichening people's life and encouraging creativity. It is essentially also about teaching values and morals. The whole point of this article is to remind people of that and how because of that any conspiracy theories and fan-made stories should not be falsely claimed as what really happened.

I honestly believe Disney...

Do the Kopa disappeared/was killed theories make sense to canon?

posted by bendaimmortal

I don't think so. And as canon I now mean the sequel movie The Lion King 2: Simba's Pride because it's the main source for those theories.

It's true, they can't show every little detail about crucial plot parts in a film. But what they can do is refer to everything crucial. Like, in this case, if there had been another cub before Kiara, they could've and would've said so in the film.

In example, they could've had Simba and Nala briefly discuss it instead of how much Kiara reminds them of Simba. Or, combined the two topics.

Nala: "She's just like you when you were young."
Simba could've replied...

What The Lion King had taught me?

posted by deedragongirl

Hakuna Matata.

Hi everyone, I just want to say before Frozen came into the picture. The Lion King had a number of things that taught me while I first watch this movie many years ago, here they are.

Let it Go!

Yes, the Lion King had actually taught us to let go of our past. It also taught me to improve my future along the way while learning from my mistakes in life, our life is full of ups and downs.

Parental Love

It also promotes about loving your parents like Simba and Mufasa did, I really love my parents despite that we do not agree on a number of things, especially with my relationship with my mother.

The Circle of Life

5 years ago, my favourite dog pet died unexpectedly and I was really sad over it. But I managed to let go of it because it's part of the Circle of Life, and I truly understood this line.

Thank You Simba!

These are the 3 reasons on why the movie will always cherish in my heart. So, do you agree?

Splendid View.

Lion King- Life during,and after the disaster, Part four

posted by nicker11500

PLEASE READ part one if you haven't read it yet it will give you better sense in what's going on in this story

Timon gets up and goes in front of Simba, Timon:" Simba, I'm sorry I was annoyed by what you two did to me and again I'm sorry do you forgive me?" Simba didn't say anything but then looked at him Simba:" (sigh) I forgive" he says giving a slight smile then giving Timon a hug. Night has fallen as Nala once again laying in the dead almost just ground grass, decided to stay out and look at the stars with her face still sore from the abuse of Scar, as she looks up rubbing her sore face...

Lion King- Life during,and after the disaster, Part three

posted by nicker11500

The next morning in the jungle Timon is the first to wake up as he looks around noticing that Simba isn't where he usually sleeps, Timon:" did he really sleep there all night?" Timon leaves Pumbaa to sleep as he goes to looks for Simba, Timon went to the area where they looked at the stars the other night and Timon found peaceful sleeping Simba who looks like he's in a very intense dream or nightmare by a guess of him moving his back paws rapidly. (In Simba's dream) In his dream it's about him, his father, Nala, and mother, it shows him throwing his father off the cliff as Nala and his mother...
