Okay, this is something that's been on my chest for a while, but I swear Shota and Kyun are either the same guy on multiple accounts or really in-sync twins. Latter just picked up after the former without missing a beat, man. And this ain't the first time either.

Not trying to be offensive or critical. I'm more astonished than anything else.

This is a really awkward page-topper.

They both have usernames derived from Japanese words. Both have icons with an anime character with huge eyes and a Moe Stare.

Hmmmmm.

Take note, they confirm exactly what I said about this being unscripted and spontaneous, and that's why they forget things.

Just dropped in here to say to me, James Earl Jones and Whoopi Goldberg were the only voice actors that the average person could really immediately identify.

… most of the characters in Lion King are uninteresting. It's really a pretty weak film, in hindsight. By Disney's standards, I mean.

The last hurrah? Nah, I'd do it again.

[up][up] That was posted a few days ago so yes the time to discuss it has passed, but you are free to talk about it!

[up] This is the first time I am seeing an entire group concure that The Lion King was a mediocre film.

I wouldn't call Lion King weak...it is a really good film, even for Disney. But Disney has a lot of movies which are stronger in the story department, and that's the one point where Lion King falters a little bit towards the end, which is a little bit frustrating because the movie starts out really strong. It's easier to forgive a movie which starts weak but ends strong than the other way around. Lion King has great visuals, a great score and songs, some really touching moments...but in a way, it is a really safe movie. It is movie number four which is built up on the same pattern. And the moment you realize that you see the emperor without his clothes.

Disney has made other projects which were really unusual, not just for the studio but in general. They have done movies which required a lot of financial risks. And they have done a couple which are really strong in the story department.

And then there is the artistic aspect...Disney has done two movies which are very strong on the circle of life thematic, which both started and end with the birth of a new generation and both contained a shocking dead scene. If someone asked me, which movie I would rather watch on a lazy afternoon, I would say Lion King. But if someone asked which one is the more artistic, challenging and unusual one, I would vote for Bambi any day.

[up][up][up] I thought the point wasn't that Lion King was mediocre, but that there's nothing wrong with not knowing the entire voice cast.

I mean, I fully agree that LK is a fantastic film, but that still doesn't change that for the longest time the only voices I immediately recognized were James Earl Jones and Nathan Lane.

What happens at the end. Scar rules Pride Rock, becomes a **** at it, Simba returns home, he fights him, he wins, and Simba becomes the rightful king! ............ how is that weak!?!

You see the dead body of a main character's father. Then the main character is in self-pity for half the movie. How is that "safe"?

It's roughly what we expect to happen, though. The villain reveals himself to be an utter jackass and is promptly deposed.

Maybe you'd be less disappointed if you stopped expecting things to be Carmen Sandiego movies.
