it was really, really boring.
>background music never stops playing
>too much talking
>terrible delivery of jokes
>musical numbers lack soul
>*whispers* be prepared
>no luau joke
I don't know if the movie was two hours long, but it felt like it was dragging on and on. literally soul vs soulless. only went because the kids wanted to go and it bored one to sleep and the other one wouldn't stop complaining how bored they were.

Kevin Richardson
>whispers be prepared
This is the biggest sin of them all really
Cameron Murphy
Wait, so he whispers "Be Prepared" but he yells lines like "Long live the king" and "Run away and never return"?
Fucking hell, what else did they fuck up in this movie?
Benjamin Parker
>yeah, ok so I paid to see it.
>and took several kids.
>BUT I SWEAR TO GOD I DIDN'T *LIKE* IT!
It's too late, faggot. Leave your Yea Forumsntrarian card on the table and go.
Jacob Jones
>actually spending money on this to confirm that it's bad instead of already knowing it would be bad based on the trailers
what the fuck is wrong with you
Blake Wright
Sorry you and your kids had an awful time. At least your kids have good taste.
Logan Wilson
imagine paying money to go watch a lesser quality version of a movie you could watch for 3 bucks at home
Angel Wood
I'm glad you enjoyed this movie Yea Forumsstumer
Wait, you didn't? You still gave money and will see the next live action adaption anyway. See you soon.

>dad can we go see lion king?
>fine, not like we got anything else going on
>kids hate it
>stuck watching it, hoping it gets better
>movie thoroughly sucks
>spent 50 bucks on shitty movie
fuck disney
Sebastian Miller
It wasn't just jokes. The delivery of everything was bad and all the dialogue changes were for the worse. They even fucked up "I'm 10x the king Mufasa was!"
Colton Cook
>delivery of everything was bad
That was honestly my main issue. particularly the slimy limey, he sounded like he'd taken about a dozen Ativans during I Just Can't Wait To Be King.
David Bell
You better have at least waited for a cheaper day to take them
Aiden Richardson
3 bucks? Where?
Noah Sullivan
>it bored one to sleep and the other one wouldn't stop complaining how bored they were.
then get up and leave. "Fuck things that suck and waste your time" is a great lesson to teach kids.
William Evans
A nitpick I have is that Zazu (aka Current Year) actually says "your majesty" in the rain scene. They were going to do that in the original, but decided not to at the last minute, and thus made the scene more emotional.
Jeremiah Nguyen
>not making them watch the thing they thought they wanted to watch as punishment
ha. incel
Jace Price
It's already made over 500 million dollars. Expect more remakes like this in the future, OP.
Joseph Sanchez
>Zazu (aka Current Year)
Hoo boy
What did they do to Zazu?
Eli Stewart
they let john [current year] oliver voice him
Zachary Martinez
He screwed up "I just can't wait to be king" by not singing
Nathaniel Carter
That's pretty bad
I probably should be glad I don't know who that is
Caleb Kelly
Why the fuck are people still watching these movies? They're all terrible. Yes even the supposedly "good" ones like The Jungle Book. They all completely miss the point of the animated versions while simultaneously invoking them for nostalgia purposes. They're not good as remakes and they're not good on their own merits. Fuck mainstream audiences.
Michael Gonzalez
They gave him a line about Tweeting that was as subtle as a wilderbeast to Mufasas head
Lincoln Diaz
Ouch, too soon
Robert Carter
>A twitter joke in a "Realistic" Lion King with a "Documentary style"
I swear to God user you better be fucking lying to me....
Nicholas Hernandez
>john oliver tweeting
why is this significant?
Robert Harris
Timon and Pumbaa sing be our guest as a distraction
Josiah Anderson
also,
>mufasa's death reaction ruined by a lot of cutting and not enough time to let Simba laying there with his dead dad sink in
>that fucking beyonce song
>his dad just being a shade in the clouds instead of there
>fucking up the mufasa dialogue in that scene too
Blake Howard
50 bucks on 3 tickets?!
My local theater charges 8 on weekdays and 12 on weekends, what kind of fucked place you live in
Aaron Mitchell
he insulted glorious leader now we must circlejerk in hatred
current year current year current year
hail glorious leader
Ian Nelson
So bizarre how Disney is eager to exploit nostalgia yet makes such arbitrary changes that get in the way of it. I guess they keep making tons of money so they have no reason to re-evaluate what they're doing. But people will look back on this as a cinematic wasteland. All these films do is remind people that the animated versions exist. Maybe they're intentionally inferior for that purpose.
Brandon Perez
Fuck off mate I'm not even American. John Oliver having to get a Trump joke into the Lion King is just pathetic
Daniel Cox
SEETHING
Anthony King
A ton of foreigners obsess over American politics, you're nothing special. It's all a big circus.
Colton Lewis
The sad part is that the only song that was done better than in the original was Timon singing The Lion Sleeps Tonight.
Kevin Campbell
No, they're to snag children and Millennials who don't know things ever existed before they were born.
Jonathan Cox
That was neat.
Ryder Clark
Same for Be Prepared. That chanting shit sounded like the actor was having to enunciaste words he couldn't handle.
