Entrepreneurial theatres would just show the OG film instead of whatever the fuck this is.

Nope. Kimba was inspired by Bambi, and Lion King was also inspired by Bambi plus Hamlet.
Bambi - forest + African savannah= Kimba
Bambi - forest - humans + African savannah + Hamlet = Lion King

There are only about 7 distinct stories. All other stories derive in some way from those 7.

There's a difference between being inspired and flat out plagiarism. The Lion King is the latter.

It's not that good, but it's better than the new one. The new one somehow took stuff out of the original, didn't add anything new, yet is still a full 30 minutes longer.

The difference between the original Disney movies and these remakes is that people still love the originals while nobody will care about these remakes in 10 years.

Lion King in particular will age horribly as CGI evolves.

I liked the original as a kid but I dont like it much now and Beauty and the Beast has risen. Honestly, the only good remakes have been Petes Dragon, Maleficent, cause it was at least something imaginative, and Jungle Book. Everything else is a word for word reenactment of the animated original with garbage that adds nithing to the overall story. Seriously, why does Beast have a magic book and why is Lefou gay? Stupid.

I disliked the Jungle Book remake because the kid couldn't sing worth a damn.

All the money they spent on that movie and couldn't have the kid take singing lessons

Lion king isn't word for word, and what they took out it modified is the shit part.

Never saw it.

I've seen bits and pieces, watched the beginning few minutes the other day for the first time. Maybe like 15 minutes altogether I've seen.

Cinderella added a good deal. Best one so far.

Ever After with Drew Barrymore is the better Cinderella movie.

Yeah that scene with Simbas hair in a ball of shit was really vital to the story. I learned so much about the characters and their motivations. Truly an Oscar award winning scene.

Agreed. And they rushed other scenes or cut them to include shitty new scenes like the dung beetle or the shitty running montage to Beyonce's garbage song.

The only added content I enjoyed was Nala's escape and the Scar/Serabi interaction.

Seriously I dont understand why they have to make the movie so long in the first place. Like the 90s films were an hour and a couple minutes long and told a great cohesive story that was compelling. I watched this movie and all I got out of it was the urge to watch Planet Earth 1 & 2

Rewatched the original cartoon 2 or 3 days before I saw the new one in theaters. I feel like I watched a movie I've never seen before with the cartoon, since it was so long since I saw it as a little one. Great movie, best part was Be Prepared.

The new movie was okay I guess, but underwhelming considering they stripped some of the songs down to nothing save for Beyonce's overly indulgent Can You Feel the Love Tonight. The whole movie felt like a "millenials are definitely i now in the workplace" meta-experience, and I say this as a millenial lol.
