Well yes, and that was the point of the scene.
Agreed, but his subjects singing and dancing along takes a different tone if you thing of him as a violent and petulant predator that could decide to kill any of them at any point. Beneath the smiles and harmonies, they are terrified of the boy-king and his betrothed sister-consort, who hold their lives in their pathetic little paws.
But don’t worry, he eventually befriends a pair of losers, murders his uncle, impregnates his sister, and institutes apartheid once again!
i don’t rlly remember the lion king, but that sounds a lot like Star Wars. i don’t really remember star wars either.
both kinda remind me of hamlet. huh, weird.
It’s worse than that. It’s less a maturing trust, more a post-death inheritance. He is eagerly awaiting the day of his Father’s death - his patient, present and loving father - so that he can take his power.
I was surprisingly old (about 10 or 11) before I understood on an emotional level that “everybody dies” meant that the people I cared about would die. Before that time, I could have logically reasoned that these people were a part of “everyone” but I still felt like they would live forever.
What I’m saying is that I think it’s realistic that Simba knew that if there was a new king then the old king was dead, but he never really thought about what that meant about his own life.
I won’t pretend that I know about the intricacy of lion monarchies, but it could be possible his father would have given him the crown before dying.
That didn’t happen lmao
It doesn’t matter, he’ll never get past the monkeys.
Go to the options screen, enter BARRY, skip this level
[save state] [load state] [save state] [load state]…
Simply get good
Memorizing where to go in the monkey maze isn’t getting good, it’s just a chore.
One persons chore is another’s dark souls
/s
Actually very true!
The flesh is weak but the mind is strong. Upgrade simba’s zweihander to chaos +5 and the monkeys will fall like dominos.
Also
I like how Americans think that humans don’t have kings anymore. Kings? Nah those are just for disney cartoons, like talking animals or China
Trust funder - no that’s horrible, hobos are gross, it’s much more rewarding to sign these songs to someone working two jobs to make ends meet.
I think that Weird Al should do a cover of Trustfall by Pink and call it Trustfund. This post could work as inspiration for the lyrics.
