Everything Wrong With The Lion King (2019) In The Circle Of Minutes

this movie exists also dear robot wall to spine owning Marvel's Star Wars and to top-notch Animation Studios we don't have enough cash to fill the Atlantic Ocean yet a wish you stated in your will so we remade the animated Lion King and turned it into a movie posing as live-action even though it's still animated we are five years away from having the money to create actual animals that act in the lab and when we do we will proceed with our remake of Finding Nemo also also wow it really is the same movie only here unlike all the other live-action remakes we don't have any human actors on screen whatsoever so this is a cartoon this movie is basically Disney saying we got way better at drawing Jurassic Africa or Africa or Ice Age six let's do Africa is it just me or is it weirder that all the animals are attending the opening ceremony in this movie since these animals look real it's harder for my brain to process that real animals would ever do this ah Twilight baby oh wait that's Simba I get back all the sins if he dropped him right here and the movie was about the trial of Rafiki for a simple slaughter I'm trying to put my finger on why this new circle of life song is so off-putting and then I realize it's being sung by that Bee Gees impression Jimmy Fallon a Justin Timberlake did on SNL well look who's come down to mingle with the Commodus aslant Surabhi and I didn't see with the presentation of Simba look I can't think of a better voice than James Earl Jones either if you're gonna make Lion King again he makes total sense hearing someone else would be weird but hearing anyone other than Jeremy Irons as scars weird too so why not find someone else to play with awesome don't turn your back on nice car oh no Mufasa perhaps you shouldn't turn your back on me remember when everyone gave Gus Van Sant unmerciful for making a shot-for-shot remake of psycho yeah I remember that when as far as brains go I got the lion's share the Lions make puns about lions the Lions even know poems about lions and long live the king what am I gonna do with him kill him or banish him I'd kill him if you killed him everything would be fine but because you are still keeping him around I guess because your blood relatives this entire movie will be allowed to happen how good of a ruler can Mufasa even be if he can't sniff out his biggest threat we both know he should have been expelled from the pride lands long ago Zazu would be excellent at sunup a sense [Music] coordinated insect art also the first few bugs formed together on their own and he started grabbing other bugs to help out so it was mystical at first but now it seems like he's making the image he wants to see Jonathan Taylor Thomas is sitting at home going I could have done that what a dick just walk past a bunch of sleeping lions and he didn't want to get up either so now he's forcing everyone to be up what a dick everything the light touches is on kingdom this seems vague and immeasurable yes but nothing behind me or to either side only this land in front of us everything you see exists together in a delicate balance as king you need to understand that balance and in case there are too many other things existing together you'll need to snap your fingers so half of it goes away yes Simba but let me explain when we die our bodies become the grass and the Antelope eat the grass well you skipped a few steps but I can be mean but this is only true on an atomic level you have the Morning Report 10 flamingos are taking a stand a 2 giraffe will caught necking this morning tonight with John Oliver also this is either a terrible and insignificant morning report or it's a rendition of the 12 days of Christmas watching Simba get enchanted with this totally CGI but realistic looking flying insect and I suddenly realize these [ __ ] are gonna make a new live-action bug's life next aren't they don't laugh that's not a joke they will do this and you know it then you guys better flood social media with a timestamp YouTube linked to this since video to prove I called it go back to your den Simba I don't babysit he is literally just outside his own den so why ask arse layer so close to Pride Rock and elephant graveyard multiple choice I love it Grady already is a New York's hottest club featuring ivory stripper poles pachyderm hide bar chairs and a menu featuring artisan baloney sandwiches speak the name of my middle school ska band see the name of a spicy Albanian Cola drink or D the name my college girlfriend gave her sexual era of large boyfriends which occurred just prior to me and remember our little secret uncle's oh how lovely it is to see the future king with his future Queen what do you mean future Queen the Lions really have arranged marriages or two Zazu just know by looking at Cubs that one day they'll have wild lion sex we are never getting married on them we are never ever ever getting hit together we are never ever ever come out of Africa they are so casual man every single person they know is warned against going here and yeah that might pique one's interest but no hesitation no fear you just give me a little bit of space I'm helping we have talked about this before no you haven't that's what comic relief villains always say in the effort to inject humor into a kid's movie anyway let me guess because you guys look so really he didn't want to be scary to the kiddos so you made them rip and joking out close Emma the hyenas stop the attack to argue about the plan and who is supposed to be where which rhymes me of that scene in Django Unchained where Quentin inserts himself into the film furry super unfunny scene that ultimately distracts from the main narrative howl and the ever-loving Zazu find them why would he even bother checking that place where the lion cubs are worn by everyone else not to ever go thankfully there is a lion cub sighs only tunnel nearby that these lion cubs are able to find immediately what are they waiting for we're shaming even Mufasa would be overwhelmed and killed by 35 hyenas man how can you go so hard at making him a supernatural badass here but then in a few minutes suggests to me that he dies in a stampede of animals he regularly eats you deliberately disobeyed me I knew you could have been killed and what's worse you put Nala in danger let's talk about this shot for this conversation it's a pretty shot and we can see the blue Fawcett hours over Simba showing the contrast between the two but it feels like something is lost when we don't see Mufasa face during the scolding this is a different choice from the original and I'm wondering why it was made it may not even be a sin but I'm counting it as one do you understand what's at stake um no I'm just a tiny baby cub on understand stakes and world politics look at the stars look how they shine for you well you're in luck he's right behind you I'm sure this has far better eyesight than I do with this dark and in the fog but it's not like we can see any line until 2 or 3 seconds after he says this what could you possibly offer us peace dialog setting the hyenas is a sensitive burned-out would-be King why does this feel like I'm eavesdropping on a meeting at Trump Tower [Music] this song is less menacing and a lot more shouty than the original lots more shouting might even do a different version there's no way Simba would be able to stay this far in front of the Stampede for this long Simba Simba Oh got a question when Simba goes to play with uncle scar is scar considered the chief babysitter at that point even though Mufasa knows he's an evil dick is that wise Ozzy wasn't watching him seems like Zazu would always be near whenever Simba Bizet's is Uncle John I know Lions can use their jaws to grab Cubs by the neck and can they do it in midair and from this angle seems like jumping is more dangerous than just hanging onto the tree also this whole scene calls into question the circle of life opening where animals consciously come to Pride Rock to anoint the new future king and it knowledged the Lions authority as their ruler because why can't with fossa just roar until these [ __ ] wildebeest to chill the cow yeah might be a Blues Brothers cop car situation but they'd get over it how did scar get his name he's clearly got a massive scar over one of his eyes but he didn't come out of the womb with that scar so did they name him something normal and then after he got the scar scar became a nickname when he get pissed if people were always calling him a derogatory nickname based on his appearance or did the monkey see the future and knew there would be a real scar later so they named scar scar at the birth because of the future scar scar [Music] skaars entire plan hinges on Simba not being able to see this and remember he told Zazu to find the pride and bring them here to help which is a stark contrast to the original where he merely slapped Zazu into a rock and knocked him unconscious so now he's got to hope nobody sees this No what have you done where the [ __ ] is the pride that Zaza flew off to get you got the pride there was no way that they're that far away from the ravine and they totally forget about this for the rest of the movie I was gonna do a simple survives this thing but that wouldn't do it justice this cat Miracles himself to safety these two hyenas were told by boss hyena to go down and make sure a symbol was dead they don't this is like when scar told all the hyenas to go kill Simba and they agreed but didn't finish the mission this movie wants us to believe good only conquerors because evil is too lazy or an F to organise or gain fall in line followers and I'm alive right now in 2019 and the world is on fire because evil can organize and fall in line goddammit wow it's like this cliff was made especially for lion cubs to survive Falls wasn't it other names besides Pride Rock that were considered for this formation include Dickon ball rock permanently down seesaw rock it clearly fell so how did it fall on that round rock without breaking at the centre rock and Leonard to lose a brother such a deep personal loss none of these lions believed this book though right they see through this right because scholars are known evil and Simba's too young to be responsible for a death right scar a skinny and bony and weak and you could take him and little Simba who had barely begun to live so did they go and check to see if Simba's body was anywhere what did they do with Mufasa do they have burials or do they just have to leave him down in the ravine to get picked apart by wild animals and saw zoo he just accepted that Sybil was dead and didn't look for yeah we're worried on that one did does he have to walk on the very tippy top of the pointy sand dune is he trying to stay as close to the scorching Sun as possible Hakuna Matata he's gonna eat you and then use my body as a tooth these two are the only good thing about this movie they're not good enough to earn us in removal so they end up earning an added sin by making the rest of the movie shameful laziness so obvious repeat after me kid Hakuna Matata is this better is it different enough to warrant its existence do you not feel the same feels by just watching the original on the zebras even care about warthog farts are zebras like people in the antelope oh so wait does this antelope have some sort of character that the other antelope Simba's eaten didn't have when used to go on hunts with his dad at the antelope scream God please don't kill me and make a reference to Billy ocean or some before they die this is going a long way to proving Jules Winfield's philosophy about not eating dogs because they have personality personality goes a long way mmm sometimes why are the insects indi different from the mammals in this world it's all these species can speak to each other why don't the bugs have any way of communicating kind of convenient for their no murdering policy isn't it where have you been I'm sorry Nala I came as soon as I could what exactly as a zoo been doing where he's had to be away for a long time did he go do research on the One Ring yeah overhunting scar I've simply perfected the kill with the help of my army that's not really answering the accusation over hunting implies food supply concerns whereas your perfected kill suggests that the prey will be limitless or that at a minimum you don't care I mean not sure not her real line but you know the kind of eats I'm gonna go he is never gonna want a frolic with a carnivore yeah but in this world you have the ability to communicate to each other and learn from each other's actions this is where the movie wants to have it both ways it's either a jungle out there or it's a civilized society the antelope is acquainted with Simba enough to know he's not going to eat it because he's been here for however long it's been and he hasn't eaten any animals this is just like that bull from racing stripes when the Frankie Muniz zebra was afraid of getting into the starting gate for some stupid reason even though he was fully conscious of his actions hello I'm saying is racing stripes we're entrusting you to make a plan for us today this is important think about all you've been taught even the new scenes in this remake feel stale and regurgitated like there was a reason the original film didn't contain them and this piece of Simba's mein travels a force gump en route that is so insane the odds of it reaching Rafiki and that he would recognize it are astronomical to an insulting degree and besides this movie saying there are no other lions this main hair could it be from seriously are the Lions in the pride lands the only ones within a butterfly effect' radius also oh my god it's a bug rolling a circular giraffe turd with the tuft of lion hair in it this even passed through the first draft of the script even dreamwork king of poop jokes in animated movies has never stooped quite this low that is a bug pushing poo Oh Olli they did make a live-action bug's life I just put it in the middle of this live-action Lion King movie [Music] oh my god damn there's more bug eating in this movie than I don't know twelve Monkeys this knowledge chases boomba scene goes on for some time it must be more Lions out there if Nala isn't immediately yelling Simba I'm doubling down on Rafiki knowing that that was his tuft of Mane earlier lady you've got your lion's cross more lion pawns and does Timon know about telephone lines of old where sometimes the lines would get crossed and you'd get connected to the wrong number on accident after Timon opens the song Nala and Simba suddenly begin to sing can you feel the love tonight which is weird because Timon literally just sang that Nala and Simba had no clue they were falling in love also forcing donald glover to do wet with beyonce is super unfair he's a fine singer but more of a rapper and beyonce is freaking Beyonce it's like asking Jeremy Renner do went with Adele no one will be seated during the Simba and Nala act out a scene from Attack of the Clones part of the movie lion porn also I don't know what kind of love potion number nine is in Lion pheromones but these two are in love after one date you think all the horrible scar stuff back at the pride lands with dull knowledge horny but it hasn't I'd remove all the sins and retire if Simba mounted Nala and this turned into a clinical nature film would that even make this movie r-rated all it would be is just CGI lions doing it on action I know he died a long time ago he's alive Rafiki gets Simba's hopes up that he'll see his father in the flesh but it'll merely be the ghost of his father Rafiki is like obi-wan talking about Luke's father to switch dead for a line and both happen to be voiced by James Earl Jones do you know how much right moonlight you would need to see a clear reflection of your own face in nighttime water since it's a lot Simba I do have to admit that this is way better than the live-action remake of Kimba the White Lion it's only me Ken I never left you I never will accept that I'm technically leaving you now but try back in about 30 minutes you sometimes need to unplug spirit net for a while and plug it back in so it can reboot I am Simba son of Mufasa [Music] well that was easy also at this point an hour and 28 minutes in and with a full half-hour left of this movie and just FYI the original one it ended by now this new song that I'm not gonna play for you goes spirit watch the heavens open Oh spirit and that is just a bunch of nothing spirit watch the heavens open is this song talking about Mufasa in the cloud that was last night this song is present-tense simple returning home somehow like the heavens opening the song would be equally impactful if she were singing I didn't want to believe you yes scars rain has made it where all the animals have run away and the grass and trees don't grow any more and everything it looks like I'm wondering though how do you recruit animals back to the pride lands after this how do you say come back we'll only you have as much a scar did your dinner I know the hyenas are done but this should be very high on that this is a distraction scale nobody willingly draws attention to themselves to be dinner for any other purpose right especially when Timon says out loud well okay Pumbaa distracted like five Hyannis but we saw earlier there were thousands of them here working with scar so what about the rest of them all you have to do is be my queen Jesus we saw him ask her to be his queen ages ago in this movie and now it's before Nala found Simba so to Skaar call for Surabhi every day patiently ask her to be his queen then send her to bed without supper when she refuses and just start all over the next day my point is that while we were watching all that Simba Nala reunion storyline this storyline stood stone still and didn't advance at all for weeks on end the choice is yours Skaar step down or fight I'm pretty sure we brought this up in the last movie but Simba's been playing with bugs all this time since he was a kid why is he supposed to be a good fighter now because he's big yep good thinking we'll need that fire to light the battle scene thanks Jesus you told us you didn't get to the gorge in time that's true then how did you see the look in Mufasa eyes wait you heard him say that I understand you not hearing him actually admit to killing Mufasa but how did you hear him say he saw the look in Mufasa sign he was talking at a normal volume a good distance away they had to wait for a command to join the fight I see Disney is now employing MCU fight editing across all their properties pop and chubby chubby Pumbaa suddenly gets the power to fight just because someone calls him names this is that sports fallacy that motivation is the deciding factor in a contest like Watford would totally beat Liverpool in football if the Liverpool players said something mean to them before the game oh yeah Shenzi battle I have that long festering hate that this movie is totally showing us guys you made an animated movie there are no stunt doubles to mass there are no prima donna actors who don't know fighting moves while the dam cuts it's all already dark and the only light is provided by fire whenever you're running from someone that wants to kill you the best choice is always decline for the top of the tallest nearby thing you can find because that offers multiple escape routes that all equal death those revolting scavengers made me do it and they just happen to follow you up the mountain to hear this for some reason I just I'm wondering how did fiery amber get all the way up here and wake up on Pride Rock I'm not even sure why this fire is so huge either since all the Copernicus Mall dead trees on the ground 100 feet down even if embers did get up here they died out wouldn't they I'm no fire expert but this seems like wishful thinking on the screenplays part the hero doesn't plan to kill the villain but the villain insists on fighting and ends up still dying so the viewers can see justice served without the movie having to dirty the hero's hands cliche Wade he's still alive and he can still walk after that fall okay so it's pouring rain then part of the clouds part so Simba can see the stars then we cut to Simba roaring and this is not on my time shop you can't have stars behind the rain clouds but then have the rain clouds this bright I'd like to know how much time this represents the pride lands back to form all the animals are back and Simba and Nala have just had a child considering how thirsty they were for each other I'm guessing she got pregnant right away which means this represents roughly four months maybe they had responsible family play maybe Simba pulled out a few times while the pride lands got back up to speed and this took a year or two but this really does feel like the change back to the good days was instant and now sometimes you make a copy a copy it's not quite as sharp as wellthey original meet the flower she's the leader of a 29 strong family of meerkats all of this [Music] I need some personal space three stay out of my personal space for keep away from my personal space five get out of that personal space six stay away from my personal space thanks to the quick action of commander Lewis astronauts back Johansson Martinez and Vogel were all able to reach the Mars ascent vehicle and perform an emergency launch at 7:28 Central Time alpha like me yes but I thought I was the only one I thought I was come on mama now you can have ice cream in heaven

I've never actually seen this movie, because why the fuck would I, but MY GODS James Earl Jones, one of our lifetime's greatest voices, was fucking BORED with his "disappointed" lines. Dead facial animation is one thing, cynical production impetus is shit but understandable, but how can a director listen to JEJ sleepwalk through one of Mufasa's most important scenes and not ask for anything better?

And JEJ still knows his craft, he's been doing Vader in recent years just fine. For cartoons.

Y'know, I really did hope you were just going to pull the audio from the original Lion King sins video, at least for a good half of the sins. This remake, above all others, deserves that treatment.

How did this make 2 billion dollars? WHY did this make 2 billion dollars?!

[u/N-P_A]

How didn't they bring up that Timon and Pumba were turned to FUCKING NIHILISTS FORD FUCK S SAKE? I mean, why??? This is the Lion King, not No Country for Old Men.
