I need to get in on the video essay game before someone makes the 5hr Lion King retrospective that only I deserve to
#not that I ever will...but I’ve thought about it
#I saw one for Warrior Cats today and it took me tf out
#and not to be all ‘I like this incredibly popular Disney movie more than anyone else the Lion King is MY movie’
#because that’s really reductive I hate when people say that like they’re the only ones to think it
#and it’s not even my favourite Disney movie. Lilo and Stitch all the way
#but I AM in the top 0.0004% of monthly Lebo M. listeners so gleam from that what you will
#but who else but me could talk about...the tv shows. the sequels. the Broadway show. the remake. the books. the fanbase..the Zazu Tiki Room.
#I’m sure there are people who like and are more knowledgeable about every one of those specific things more than me but all together?
#and I feel like the way I like the Lion King is Different to the way most do. Again not to be all Not Like Other Fans
#but I feel like there’s one side that likes the original movie just for the message and the music and the characters and the stage show
#like they’ll have tattoos of the Simba painting and have Timon and Pumbaa on a t shirt
#and there’s another section who were really introduced to it via the sequel
#so they like the idea of interpersonal lion drama and romance and new lion ocs and kingdoms and breeding Cubs on deviantart
#and at a certain point it just becomes scaled up warrior cats
#but I’m into like...the core concept. Animals can talk and have a functional monarchy. what are the ethics of that? who can eat who and when
#that’s the stuff that’s interesting to me
#but no piece of Lion King media really Goes There
#actually this might be better as a series of videos instead
#oh well I’ll just lay the groundwork so they hire me to write for the re-remake in 20 years
