I absolutely love it! And yeah, I know the movie word for word. A note to all fans out there: Never be ashamed of your own interests. Another persons opinion shouldn't have anything to do with your obsessions. ^-^ Saying I’m a huge Lion King fanatic is an understatement. \':)\'

Gads I feel old... Thanks for the fun lion facts. It's great to see the effects this movie had on you, even at that young age. I know if I had seen it as a kid I would have been obsessed with it then too (as I was as an adult). I love all those 'Art of' books. I have quite a few, though now I try to find them on sale! Pricey suckers. I wish you much luck in your career path and glad you found the blog. If you ever have any questions, just fire away. :) K Hi Rachel and welcome!

And the reigning pride males, even if they were aware of the indiscretion, would probably not kill the cubs because there's no way to know whose cub it is for sure. (Assuming that they even think about it that way) And thus, I was able to live with it. :P But as for the actual film... The Lion King opened my eyes and is probably the reason I'm even looking into the animation industry in the first place. I was 8 when it came out (??!) and it just blew me away. My mom recently told me that she even noticed the difference in my reaction at the time. Thanks to the local library system, The Art of The Lion King was the first "artbook" I read. It's where I realized that PEOPLE do this stuff. As a JOB. Now, I understand that the industry is not as romantic as I thought it was as a kid, but led me to majoring in animation (with a preference for animation/storyboarding) and I'm still loving it. I've read through several of your posts this evening and it's been really inspiring. I still believe I've got a lot of ground to cover before I'm employable, but I'm in school yet and the more inspiration I can glean from whatever sources I can find, the better.

I forget how or why I ended up looking into that, but I think I read that it has been placed back into the vault just recently. So I don't have much hope unless I find it on Amazon (which is how I normally shop) or wait until 2010 or something. I remember now, I was watching Aladdin on YouTube. In parts. A bit annoying, but I needed my fix since I haven't watched it for about 10 years. Makes me shudder just saying that. I'm interested in Kung Fu Panda, so I will run out and rent it first.

Yes you do. Run to the story now! (If you can find it...has it been locked in some Disney vault?) :) I loved Aladdin too. Very high energy and lots of fun. My Iron Giant post is on it's way soon. And word has it Kung Fu Panda is out on DVD November 9th. Yay! K Yes. Yes you do. Run to the story now! (If you can find it…has it been locked in some Disney vault?) \':)\'

This movie and Aladdin are my all-time favorite movies that I grew up watching... and I'm still in shock these movies are as old as they are... which makes me feel older than I am. It's scary. But just looking at those screen shots... especially the passed Mufasa... I started to feel that tear come on. I haven't seen part 2, but I thought Lion King 1/2 was funny because I love Timon & Pumbaa. Thanks for the review. I really need to own this movie on DVD immediately.
