LION KING

i downloaded it today because i cant afford it on dvd and my video player is bust.

i know all the words.

:)


haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

savaaanyeeeeee


bbabbadeee bibba doooo

okay i dont know that bit PROPERLY


me too!

oh god i must have watched it about 50 times as a kid. nostalgia <3


"as far as brains go, i got the lions share,

but when it comes to BRUTE STRENGTH, i'm afraid i'm at the shallow end of the gene pool"


the best song....

I'm gonna be a mighty king
So enemies beware!

Well, I've never seen a king of beasts
With quite so little hair

I'm gonna be the mane event
Like no king was before
I'm brushing up on looking down
I'm working on my ROAR

Thus far, a rather uninspiring thing

Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
(You've rather a long way to go, young master,
if you think...)

No one saying do this
(Now when I said that, I -)
No one saying be there
(What I meant was...)
No one saying stop that
(Look, what you don't realize...)
No one saying see here
(Now see here!)

Free to run around all day
(Well, that's definitely out...)
Free to do it all my way!

I think it's time that you and I
Arranged a heart to heart

Kings don't need advice
From little hornbills for a start

If this is where the monarchy is headed
Count me out!
Out of service, out of Africa
I wouldn't hang about
This child is getting wildly out of wing

Oh, I just can't wait to be king!

Everybody look left
Everybody look right
Everywhere you look I'm
Standing in the spotlight!

Not yet!

Let every creature go for broke and sing
Let's hear it in the herd and on the wing
It's gonna be King Simba's finest fling

Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
Oh, I just can't waaaaaait ... to be king!


jungle book has the best tunes

i hate disney(p?) though. there's something evil going on somewhere.


Yeah Lion King

But they don't sell the DVD any more :(


really?

i got the deluxe edition when it came out, THANK GOD.


Peter Pan

TICK TOCK!


DRIP DROP!!

;)


cool runnings

obvs

"feel the rhythm! feel the ride! get on up! it's bobsleigh time! coool runnniiiiiingsssss!"


AMAZERING

I <3 Cool Runnings. I watched this 4 weeks in a row at the Watford Canon Cinema.


alice in wonderland

or jungle book. I got ratatouille yesterday. Yays!


either

The lion King
The Jungle Book
Toy Story


^knows


fantasia

observe my indieness.


Armageddon


beauty and the beast

by such a large margin


i hate choosing

but the Lion King. It's just so affecting. We had to watch it in the assembly hall once in p5 when it was raining, and i gave myself the worst throat ache ever trying not to cry in front of the whole school. I had all the merchandise as well, inclusing Simba himself.

Actually, the Lion King may be my favourite film ever.


i used to paint simba

and zazu, back in the day. i wish i had the pictures still. and i had one of those awesome cases with the crayons and felt tip pens from the disney shop. it was like my pride and joy, i never had a lot of stuff as a kid 'cause my family didn't have much money 'till i hit my teens, but lion king pens were like the best thing EVER.


oh and i used to take my notes in VI form

on a lion king notepad.


i think i might cry right now

it also the first film i saw at the cinema and the soundtrack was my first CD.


i'm not crying

false alarm.


i'm the one watching it!

i might be crying in like an hour. oh jeeze when mufasa dies...


you know its going to happen

which somehow makes it even sadder. the people who made it are very, very clever.


Aristocats

or Fern Gully.

Or Signs- hahaha.


yayy

i want to call my first cat tolouse


Aristocats is up there

one of the best Disney soundtracks.


Alice In Wonderland

or Robin Hood.


oh man

Robin Hood <3

I remember the copy we have which was taped from the telly and Feivel Goes West was after it :D


:D

mine was taped off the telly as well! Ah man, that film was ace.


I cried at the end of The Lion King

amazing scenes.


awwww


Was Land before the time Disney?

That almost got me as a kid...


nah, i think that was warner.

infact i'm pretty sure it was.


we had to watch that in school too

and i actually did cry and embarass myself greatly :(


The Jungle Book

Fantasia
Dumbo


Also

The Sword In The Stone
Alice In Wonderland


The question wasn't 'Name as many as you can'.

But well done anyway, you've had a good try x


*good cry x


Treasure Planet

is the bestist by miles I love that film even though I aint been a fan of Disney for a very very long time.


no one has seen it have they

its so good people should see it, surly it aint a obscure film its freakin disney


Probably as many people have seen it as

Atlantis, the lost world. This was my hangover film for a year or two. It's pretty gash, but it does star Michael J Fox as the main guys voice! Result.


Obvs not nominating

Atlantis as best Disney film though! Just to be sure.


I used to be convinced that all the animals

were singing "ARSENE WENGER" at the start of The Lion King when they're singing abou the circle of life.

Dumbo is also incredible, the pink elephants section used to really confuse me as a child.


We actually sang this at school

during some kind of lower school dance class. Thus starting my obsession with turning songs into football related ones. I think we managed to get Chris Kiwomya in there as well somewhere.


I haven't seen one for years

but I used to chain watch Lady and the Tramp


the jungle book

or aristocats. Running with the classics here. Disney is rubbish now; pixar's where it's at


lion king

IS a classic.


but it has really sad bits

like bambi :-(


and also words of priceless wisdom.

"i eat like a pig"
"pumba: you ARE a pig"


Mighty Ducks!

The Brave Little Toaster

I think I'm the only person in the world who's never seen the Lion King


BRAVE LITTLE TOASTER!

I'm pretty sure that wasn't Disney, but fuck it, what an amazing film.


It's on wikipedia's list of Disney films

(I had to look because I couldn't think of any good Disney films that I'd actually seen)


American animation

...always freaks me out whenever I see it now. It looks all wrong. So wrong.


The Hunchback of Notre Dame

Um, I dunno why but I've LOVED it since I first saw it aged 7. Second favourite - Beauty and the Beast. I think I just like the slightly 'darker' Disney films.


those two completely slipped my mind

lack of watching has made me a disney amateur


has no one said aladdin?

it is a work of genius from start to finish. definitely my favourite disney film


it is brillaint.

but it's no lion king.


as much as i love the lion king

i think aladdin has it beat. its a close run thing though


i think aladdin is the funniest Disney film

i could be wrong.


can i call you Al?

or maybe just Din?


The Rescuers


i think

Jungle Book is second, then Alice in Wonderland.


Robin Hood

you bunch of gaylords


ahhhhhhhh yes

i forgot that one. Bedknobs and Broomsticks is pretty good too. And The Sword & The Stone.


BEST THREAD EVER :D

the aristocats


yes.

finch good?


no, it was turbo-gash and i left early.

Also: The Sword in the Stone is a beast!! In addition, see: Aladdin, The Lion King, The Rescuers, Robin Hood


what why?no gash :(

you left out peter pan


Oops. Aye, Peter Pan.

They only played 3 SHTS songs (all superbly) and 2 new ones (very much in SHTS vain) albeit to no crowd reaction whatsoever. There were maybe 10 of us moving at all. Untillllllllll.....the criminally awful debut songs were played (in mass). I hate over 14s gigs.


well just as long as the new songs sound like SHTS im happy

which ones did they play off SHTS?did they sound ace though i mean the band not the songs cos whenever iv watched videos of them on youtube and whatnot they sounded a bit weak.well his voice did anyway :S


voice very strong.

SHTS songs = the first two (can't remember names) and one towards the end (not Gak 2 unfortunately).

New EP due out in July. Debut album to Oxfam tonight.


I asked the same question to Stephen Fry. He said:

Fantasia, Snow White and Beauty & The Beast


The Incredibles


fucking Tron

actually not as good as the lion king. but still brilliant


Dumbo AND Sword in the Stone

And also the Little Mermaid.
