** The film originally opened in Rafiki's tree as he spoke to the audience and introduced the premise of telling what Timon and Pumbaa were up to during the original film. It was deleted because it was deemed too grand and epic in contrast to the lighter tone of the film.

** In addition to the above, there is a bit of back and forth dialogue between the duo and Nala before she leaves. In the late 1993 draft of the original film, Timon initially acts panicked about Simba's well-being before turning to AngerBornOfWorry, while here Timon acts a bit more selfish, leading to him and Pumbaa having a falling out.

** A minor example is Simba and Nala heading to a waterfall at the end of Can You Feel the Love Tonight, with implied GRatedSex. The shot was shortened in the final cut of the first movie to remove this, but in this movie the shot is restored to its original length as it pans to Timon and Pumbaa.
** The idea of Timon refusing to help Simba retake Pride Rock also originated in the first film and was reused for the story of this one.



** Another deleted opening had Timon and Pumbaa in Rafiki's tree as ''they'' set up the premise by drawing on the tree, only to be chased out by an annoyed Rafiki.
