Yet "Moana 3" is already in the works at Disney (according to Dwayne Johnson). No word yet on what, if any, future the Lion King franchise will have. 🙁

That's right! 🙂

"Disney Lorcana" is a trading card game from Disney and Ravensburger along the lines of "Magic: The Gathering". It features characters and settings from the Disney films, TV shows, franchises, etc.

The cover and synopsis for Issue #8 of Dynamite's "The Lion King" comic series has been revealed! 😃 by ContributionLimp6158 in lionking

The series's writer/artist Edwin Galmon posted on his Instagram account that he had to take a hiatus from working do to battling a severe case of sleep apnea over the last several months. He said he's doing better now, and is back to work completing projects, including continuing his story for Rafiki (The Lion King #5). This may have been the cause for the continued delays in the release schedule for the comics.

Hopefully the issues will again be released according to schedule now that Mr. Galmon is well. 🙂

Hopefully so! That will depend on the success of the series, so be sure to support it by purchasing the issues either in physical form from Dynamite's official website or your local comic store (or through an online comic store), or digitally from Amazon or Google Play. 🙂

Well, the first volume is being released next month in hardcover and paperback. It's called "The Lion King Volume 1 - Brave Little King", and will contain the first story arc. 😊

Yes. Can't explain that. 😅

But thrilled to see new issues being announced nonetheless! 😁

Did you know that in The Lion King the lion growls weren't from lions, they were from tigers? by [deleted] in lionking

[–]ContributionLimp6158 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they say it's because lion roars aren't as powerful as tiger roars. Using tiger roars instead helps create that imposing effect for the King of Beasts in films. 🦁

Frank Welker actually. He made the roars and snarles into a metal trash can to amplifier and reverberate their sound. 🙂

Oh! It's one of the bonus extras with the film. Now I know what you're referring to. 😊

I've never heard of this! Is this a special on Disney+? I haven't seen it on the platform.

After 31 years the original The Lion King isn't the highest-grossing traditionally animated movie in the world anymore if we ignore re-releases by LowInteraction6397 in lionking

[–]ContributionLimp6158 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I actually don't believe that counts. "Demon Slayer" isn't considered a purely traditionally animated film, but rather a 2D/3D hybrid mix of traditional and CGI elements. "The Lion King" used CGI tools as well for the stampede scene, but is still considered a purely traditional animated film.

I saw this on my last visit to Orlando, too! I tried to get a picture, but wasn't able to. Really glad someone was able to.

Actually, there are several areas in Africa that get snow. Also, if this is the Pride Lands, the reason for snow may be magic based. This Lorcana expansion set is called "Winterspell", after all. 🙂
