How did you get the TLK movies?

[aj2590]

How were you able to get the Lion King movies (TLK, SP, & 1/2)?

[Nephilim]

I has a pirate copy!

On video that is. I believe I got the TLK DVD one Christmas, LKD/Fuzzy bought me SP, and my brothers got me TLK3 for my birthday.

I bought them in store. On exactly the day they came out

[Shatara]

Lol, pirate copy here x3

My mum was too cheap to buy it, so for the original I had to settle for a mix of taped off TV versions (complete with commerical cuts), or a pirate copy with crappy sound and color

When SP came out I picked it up from Wal-mart about a week after it came out, round Veteran's Day.

The Special Edition DVD I pre-ordered from the Disney Store.

The SP DVD I picked up from some movie store, IIRC.

1.5 I saw on Disney Channel, sans the first 10 mins or so. Have no intention of spending any quantity of real currency on procurement.

i could not afford the brand new ones, so i got some good used copies from amazon

All I had to do was peek in my stocking ^^

So I'll poll that it was from a person

P.S. Any copyright material received by .torrent files is SO illegal. I can say so becuase I used to do it but I was young and foolish at the time, and...

I got them all in person on their original release dates. I actually was able to get TLK the first time around on VHS a few days early. It was released on March 3rd and I had it on February 28th. Because I'm cool like that. I went to get the DVD on October 7, first thing in the morning (I skipped class ) with my best TLK friend. We kind of attacked the poor people at the Disney store.

I got my mum to buy me the TLK boxset the day I had my braces put in because she felt sorry for me. She ended up getting in Safeways or Tescos me thinks....

But previous to that my mum got it me TLK on video.

[King Simba]

I think my mum first bought the movies when they were released on video the first time. No idea where she bought them from, but I think she bought the original TLK on VHS around 1995 and SP on VHS around 1998-1999. Still have them both.

As for the DVDs, I bought the full box set with my own money from Sainsbury's about 2 years ago.

TLK 1 (VHS)- My mom bought it when it came to the stores
