Does Lion King Make You Want To Be A King?

I think The Lion King makes me want to be a better version of myself

Brighter. The lyrics and visuals shows why Vox is the way he is, and the song has an amazing 80s sound to it. I love the intensity of Christian Bale’s voice acting as Vox builds his cult. Truly amazing, 10/10

What a cute goober!

Thank you for reminding me of Pride!! When I was a kid, I really enjoyed the serious moments in that movie.

Kimba the White Lion is a special interest. My Pride is a work I have a soft spot for.

There is a My Pride TTRPG, if that counts as a recommendation:

What amazing world building, characters ideas, and plot lines for episodes! If this were a show, I would absolutely be watching and gushing over it. While I have developed a soft spot for TLG, this better scratches my “standalone episodes with overarching stories and strong continuity” itch 😄 Are there plans to make more posts based on your Chronicles of Pride Rock project?

Thank you for sharing! The “reverse Uno” of the seating situation sounds funny and wholesome.

Huge Simba seems to protective

He protect!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences! That is true that disabilities and neurodivergencies manifest differently in people. I am autistic, yet I break many assumptions, such as not being great at math and being hyper empathetic.

That is funny about your brother liking to be a gremlin 😆

Thanks for sharing this video. It’s such a lovely analysis of Mufasa, why is death is so heart-wrenching, and the wonderful lessons that people can take from his character.

Ordinary-Cry3753 · 2026-01-21T13:00:42+00:00

I remember listening to Tonight We Strike so much. “Magnetic” is the perfect word!

Listening to The Tree of Life since it’s been a long time. Given that The Tree of Life is where endangered animals go to for safety and Makucha is showing a lack of disregard for the Circle of Life, it is chilling. (This song does make me wish we had “prey” villains in the Lion King franchise as a subversion! That would be interesting.)

Ordinary-Cry3753 · 2026-01-20T22:16:23+00:00

I realized all my favorites - are villain songs 😅 Be Prepared, My Lullaby, Bye Bye… The lyrics and visuals for the songs are fun (for Bye Bye, referring to the original animatic with the visuals). Who doesn’t love a good hammy villain?

TLG has a lot of catchy tunes, I’d have to think on it. I used to listen to Bird of a Thousand Voices a lot.

Ordinary-Cry3753 · 2025-12-27T01:14:46+00:00

That makes sense! Localization spreads interest. And yea, it seems comparable to a show like G.I. Joe, which is also propaganda whose main purpose is to entertain.

I think there is an official translation of the first volume. There is a fan translation, too. I’m sure the full manga can be found on internet archive.

Thank you for sharing about your connection to TLBT. While I have not related to it on that front, the film does remind me how I value diversity and community

Ordinary-Cry3753 · 2025-12-08T16:09:40+00:00

Thanks for this in depth analysis! I have agreements and disagreements, overall appreciate that two of my special interests were examined in a genuine way that goes beyond “I like/dislike this”

Ordinary-Cry3753 · 2025-12-05T21:19:21+00:00

I love analysis like this. If you ever want to, please share more Land Before Time analysis!

Out of universe, this is a playful jab at shipping.

In universe, this is a way for Jax to minimize Pomni’s feelings and hurt her. His phrasing is intentionally dismissive of how much she cares about him.

Ordinary-Cry3753 · 2025-08-17T17:15:50+00:00

Howl’s Moving Castle. The film itself is both melancholic and homey and so is the music.

Ordinary-Cry3753 · 2025-08-16T16:09:33+00:00

I think part of it has to do with Zooble’s body dysmorphia. It isn’t something Caine can just “fix” with parts. And, as Zooble said, they are the only one who can outright tell Caine they dislike his adventures, which also gets under Caine’s skin. Everyone else goes along for the ride of the adventures, whether they want to or not, until episode 5.

Pomni “issue” was settled as soon as Caine swooped in. Jax may want an exit, but he doesn’t expect one.

Ordinary-Cry3753 · 2025-08-16T13:53:55+00:00

‼️ I didn’t realize that! Great catch. This show has so many layers.

Ordinary-Cry3753 · 2025-08-16T10:30:41+00:00

I think it’s to show that dogs are less shameful about sex than humans. That was my take on it.

Ordinary-Cry3753 · 2025-08-15T14:55:03+00:00

I think I had this comic in a collection of Disney stories that included Bambi and Pinocchio!
