Only a genius could think of this thread!

I remember fairly clearly seeing it back in 1994, I would guess it was one of the first movies I ever really saw, Home Alone & Alladian are the only ones I can definatly remember before it. And once I saw Lion King... for me... it was it.

I distinctly that my mate had the soundtrack, bastard. All the time I would want to listen to that whenever I went over. It was ace.

For me The Lion King was the last truly great Disney film made...

I thought he was talking about the stage show
I've never seen the movie.

I had the option of seeing the stage show in the West End last year, but I chose 'Phantom....' instead!

And you've never seen the movie?!?!

 

[yertle-the-turtle]

I've never seen the stage show, but I hope it comes here soon.

I saw it in IMAX the last time round, it was brill.

I've seen very few animated movies. Hardly any infact.
Is the Lion King still running in London? You should go, if you can. It was bloody awesome!

Timon's hula dance......("What do you want me to do? Dress in drag and do the hula?")

I loved Timon . I always loved the sidekicks in the Disney movies .

Yes. A very great movie, indeed .

Lion King is amazing (for a kids film). The actors used for the voices were great and Hans Zimmer's score is brilliant per usual.

I've never seen the stage show though...

Last month I did a presentation at a sixth grade cultural fair about my time in Tanzania and I opened by telling them "if you've seen the Lion King, you know what Tanzania looks like!"

 

[myusernamehere]

I've never seen the movie.

Now that is just wrong

Don't see it when you're in an odd emotional state.

The words "Come on Dad it's time to wake up" still make me weepy.

The Lion King is like my favorite movie. I it so much. It was the first movie I saw in theaters...I still have my Simba stuffed animal I got when I was 3. My dad bought me the tape and I watched it every day after preschool. I was so proud of myself when I could finally watch the part where Mufassa dies without crying. I knew every word to every song and basically the whole movie. I'm so sad that I can't watch in anymore cos it's on VHS.

Timon's my fav

 

[MrsSpringsteen]

the stage show is beautiful

 

[Mucca]

This is such a great movie! It's the only animated movie that has ever been able to make me cry.

 

[WildHoneyAlways]

I made one of my best guy friends go see this movie with me. Two years later he dragged me to see the Rock as revenge.

I still love the Lion King though. It was worth having to sit through The Rock!

 

[U2democrat]
