A young lion prince is cast out of his pride by his cruel uncle, who claims he killed his father. While the uncle rules with an iron paw, the prince grows up beyond the Savannah, living by a philosophy: No worries for the rest of your days. But when his past comes to haunt him, the young prince must decide his fate: Will he remain an outcast or face his demons and become what he needs to be?

    A damn classic should have never been made into a live action.

    Even after 30 years, it still holds up.

    It should be noted that Lion King is told from Simbas perspective where he idolizes his father and sees him through rose-tinted glasses. Mufasa might have actually been a racist and a sexist leader. I've even heard some of the water buffalos call him a fascist.

    I guess I don't like old school Disney because I don't like this, Aladdin, or Beauty And The Beast
