The Lion King

Beauty and the Beast rips off scenes from "Legend of Sleepy Hollow" and "Pinocchio", The Lion King rips off an entire movie (Bambi).

And it's no secret that Disney got their idea for "The Lion King" from the anime series "Kimba, the White Lion".

"The Black Cauldron" totally ripped off this one book called "The Book of Three". I mean, even some of the names are the same! Come on, Disney.

Wasn't "Black Cauldron" supposed to be based on the Prydain Chronicles "Book of Three? Or was your post a joke?

I still like to think that TLK is orignal, thank you very much.

Oh please! Simba...Kimba....Disney could've tried covering their tracks a little better than that!

"Simba" means "lion" in Swahili. "Kimba" is just what the kids at school called my best friend in 4th grade when TLK came out.

I figured that you knew, but I just had to defend Disney!

I watched the first 5 minutes and shut it off. The line, "Wow, that shell is really beautiful but its nothing special" kinda did it for me LMAO

This is painfully bad. Couldn't watch more than 2 min.

This makes the Golden Films/Jetlag Productions movies lool like masterpieces!!

Wow... That movie has severe identity issues.

It starts on the beach, which makes me think Jamaica. But the characters look African... But the princess's room looks like a typical room from the suburbs decorated to look like a Disney Princess room!

Not to mention the fact that it looks like a long time ago, it keeps using modern terms such as "movie star" and "radio". I also love how the princess' pupils keep moving all over the place.

I made it through the whole first part, and then gave up.

The SPIIIRIT of NAAATUUURE!!!

Also, you mentioned how her pupils keep moving around, Dragonlion. Did you notice the time when they actually moved off of the side of her head!?

That was pathetic! But it was so bad it was funny! It's like the kind of thing you watch when it's 2:00 am and you're sleep-deprived, so anything is funny!

The drawing look like something from Polly Pocket but I don't see her logo.

As for the video, i like the fact that all or majority of the voice actors there are 4Kids' voice actors, another shitty production company.

Notice the grammatical error tagline "The best gift for friend". Really? Cause if one of my daughter's friends got her that, I'd be telling her she needs to find new friends.

But damn, they totally ripped off the Cinderella and Disney logo!!!

On the Frog Prince, I never got far enough to see all the mix ups with time and place. I did hear a modern phrase like movie star or something. I am trying to forget ever watching that.
