As much as I like Simba, I didn't really like him in TLK 2 either. :bleen:Quote:

You know, I have a GREAT theory.
The lions in TLK2 aren't the same lions from TLK at all, they just look vaugely similar have the same names!
IT'S PERFECT!
*weeps in corner*
I have noticed the same thing. And the forbidden love storyline is a popular one. Also, the kid wants what the parent had but gave away - if you get me. Like Scamp wanted to be an outdoor dog like his dad was, Melody wanted to be a mermaid like her mum was (even if she didn't know, I'm not sure I remember the storyline so well). Oh the irony of Disney sequels!Quote:

I can kind of understand it with Ariel, since her father was the same way with her and that kind of thing tends to happen in families.*shrug* Tramp acting like that bothered me. If there was going to be an overprotective parent, I thought it'd be Lady. But back ontopic.XP
I just read somewhere(thanks, Sharifu;)) that they indeed, didn't really use the original model sheets for the characters in SP, at least they didn't for Timon.
:D
The people that had made the Disney sequels were the same that made TV shows, so they had zip experience in the movie making business. Since they didn't know what they were doing then, they always went by that formula, which got real old real fast. At least, now that some animators from Feature Animation are working in DTV, the sequels should be getting better. At least, I can see that the animation quality in them has improved.
One thing though, Kopa was not just in the 6 new adventures. We have two story cd's here with Kopa in them. One where he becomes friends with a Hyena pup, but they realize because of the past they can never be frineds. The other has to do with a cheetah trying to take over when Simba becomes ill. But when Simba's Pride was going to be released, I guess they removed. So he also has a voice (although it's a German one)

Ignore the cover art, they were just lazy : p
Wow, I didn't know that :confused: Cool :cheese:
Simba was such a jerk in SP! And Nala was an airhead.
Edited to say: Just my opinion:alone:
Ahh! I have that cassette "Freunde f?r's Leben", too. =D It's quite cool! But I have never seen the other one...:confused:
It's all right, Serengeti. I agree with you. They didn't stay true to the original characters.
Yeah. This sums it up:
Simba: You can't do anything because I have a big ego and think everyone's out to get me!!
Kiara: )-<
Nala: Wheeeeeee....
..haha. sorry.
Haha! :lol: Simba needs therapy. :DQuote:

Yeah x) I like TLK Adult Simba, but SP Simba - eugh. :woeisme:
What did you expect him to become? Perfect? :vitsm:
I couldn't see adult Simba any other way in SP.
Good Point :)
true
if his personality or any other characteristics was perfect the film would be a little boring. :yuck:
I guess his character needed to change for the purposes of the story. :D
If they had to change his character completely in benefit of the story, I say they shouldn't have done that story..
Hehe, me too. :D But the story isn't that bad, lol. It's a pretty routine love story though. Since I have been a member here I have appreciated SP more. :D But poor Simba and Nala. And Timon and Pumbaa were pretty annoying.
Funny, since I've been here I've appreciated the story less >_<" but never mind.
Even though Timon's my fave character behind Scar, I have to admit T&P were a bit annoying. Disney messed them up, too - I think at least Pumbaa would've had the decency to disagree with Simba asked them to spy on Kiara..?
Simba = too overprotective. He looked weird and he didn't have the same characteristics as he did in the first movie.
Nala = her personality changed. Her looks and eye colour changed and to me, she looked like a completely different lioness. She also never had the same characteristics as she did in the first movie.
;)
Yeah, Nala looked WAY different in SP :confused: At least you could tell Simba was Simba, but I think that if someone who had never seen SP and wasn't a die-hard fan, wouldn't be able to recgonize her. =/
Lol. :D How do you appreciate it less? :browlift:Quote:

I dunno, I thought SP was cool until I joined the online fan community.. were there's been tons of SP-bashing and the like. I've seen all the flames and even the sensible stuff, and I've watched the movie again and realized that it's mostly true.. so I guess in a way, LH has effected my opinion - opened my eyes, maybe? Dunno if that made any sense, but yeah.
one thing that annoyed me aswell, nala's voice sounded completely different in sp at the beginning of the film :grrr:
and the person who replaced rowen akinson as the voice of zazu didnt do a good job either.
I've said this before; Zazu sounded stupid in SP. He wasn't the same without Rowan Atkinson's voice. :cringe:
I think the most that bothered me about it was they seemed to turn Nala and Simba into Sarabi and Mufasa.
Nala became the quiet observer who would speak up here and there and Simba, not only his personality but the way he looked:

To me, at least it looked as if they tried to shadow Mufasa in Simba's looks as he got older. While the characters can look similar, Ahadi, Mohatu, and Mufasa, they all had different looks in the end, but Simba as time went on seemed to look just like his father, none of his mother.
Ack, I know.x_x I also hate how they got lazy when animating his mane. It looks like a pile of puddy on his neck in SP.:eww:
I just realized that... :eww:Quote:

Yeah... his mane looks weird in SP. I wish they kept it like it was in the original. :eww:Quote:

I haven't seen LK 1 1/2 but it doesn't look as Good as The Lion King and Simba's Pride i love both of them :D
Personally, I like TLK3 WAY more than SP.. just my opinion. ;)
I'm not sure about overall quality, but I do like the song "He Lives in You" better than "Circle of Life".
People get older, and I would imagine the same to be true for lions as well.Quote:

You will like it if you like comedy and parody films because thats what it is, there is not really much sad emtotion, drama or somthing that will catch your heart. But you get to see simba in his adolescent stages, that bit is cool.Quote:

TLK 3 dissapointed most fans cause they were hoping for a lion king movie not a timon and pumba movie. Some parts may have been funny for a 30 min cartoon but not a whole movie.
timon and pumba get a bit annoying after a while.
instead of telling the whole story again (which is a bit boring because we know what happens) Timon and pumba should of at least told alot more about the bits we wanted to see or extended the bits we wanted to see in the original film. eg simba growing up in the jungle.
I agree with you This land.. and I hate the part with Pride Rock.. it just disturbs a legend. Darn movie.
Hear, hear! :ayecapn:Quote:

It's just a bloody parody, people.. of *course* that's not what really happened.. because TLK didn't happen at all! It's a movie >_<;
Haha, I agree with Somby. I like TLK3 (1.5) because it is for FUN! It's not serious! :D Like me really. :D Uncle Max pwns all, enough said. :DQuote:

I like TLK 1 1/2 too because of the humor. And you can never guess who is my favorite character in TLK 1 1/2. :cheese: For TLK 2 Nuka is my favorite then next in line is Vitani and Kovu.
I really enjoyed 1.5 Especially Ma. I wish they made a plush of her : ( The scene when Timon leaves, puts me on the border of tears for some reason. Probably the aspect of leaving home and going far away. : p
