I don't know, some ideas come original as they get.

SpongeBob? I mean really, SPONGEbob? Shocked

Nah, that's how Hollywood is justifying all the crap they've put out in recent years. Laughing

One thing that I forgot to say earlier and I thought about it all through my last class - on the "Story Behind the Story" on the BatB dvd, they claim TLK as an original story of their own.

I'm a bigger Osamu Tezuka fan then I am a Lion King fan. >_O

Er... what was this thread originally about, anyway? XD;;; I forgot while reading through.


I think it was Aladdin using ethnic stereotypes or something.

Yeah, it's like the ol' quote: If you copy one source, it's plagurism, but if you copy from more than one, it's research.

Yes, my spelling isn't that great.

They are lying if they say it was an original story. On TLK dvd, they said that they started, it was going to be original, but then they realized some parallels to Hamlet and went with it.

HA!

Yeah, Lion King was supposedly Disney's first completely original idea used in a movie, but it's pretty darn similar to Hamlet. I wasn't a real big fan of the movie at all anyway.

And who the hell is going to get that "Lion King" is based on "Hamlet." I dont' even really see the connection, all though I never studied the story Hamlet either. But I want to know one little kid who would relate the two.


I didn't even know TLK was based on Hamlet until a few weeks ago! I've never read about it and the most I've heard about it was in "Freaky Friday". Until I was about twelve, I thought Hamlet was an omelette!

Hades Rocks! He is a God!

Well, that's a little redundant Laughing

But, then it isn't always the humor, it's the characters themselves... like Frollo in "Hunchback of Notre Dame," or Ursula in TLM... she was just a villian to the children, but to the adults... she had a great persona about her... she wasn't just the bland villian.

That's what attracts an older audience.

Yay...that makes me special x3 ...what I've been dying to do, actually, was a contest at the TLKFAA that ended before I could enter...it was "Draw your favorite movie with TLK charries as the cast..." and I was gonna do Kovu and Kiara as Aladdin and Jasmine riding on the carpet in a whole new worldish type deal...I specifically chose Kovu and Kiara because I think they're more similar to Aladdin and Jasmine than Simba and Nala...
