about Lion King: saying "one of" the highest grossing animated movies is a bit of a disservice. It was *the* highest when it came out, and held that for 16 years before succumbing to inflation and Toy Story 3 in 2010. To put it in perspective, it is still number 12, and the only animated movie from the 1900s in the top 50 highest grossing, (using worldwide numbers)

[@dorkfish1275]

I'd argue it's still the most profitable Disney property ever made, not including Marvel or Star Wars. The original stands at number 55 highest grossing film of all time, whilst the remake stands at number 9 (unfortunately, it really should be the other way around). And the Broadway show is literally the highest grossing Broadway show of all time. The Lion King is a cinematic POWERHOUSE!

Just a note, Mel Gibson's accent is on point. The British accent we hear today did NOT develop until after the American Revolution. So all the other characters actually stand out. Americans still speak with a rhotic accent which is what most people of Britain, Scotland, etc, spoke with way back then. We are more akin to speaking how Shakespeare did now than the British do. Once the loyalists returned to the UK, the people of London started teaching themselves how to speak in a fancier manner to separate rich from poor, but that failed. Everyone has picked up some of the posh accent and it developed into multiple dialects of today. So yeah....Cary Elwes is a worse Robin Hood in terms of speech. ;)

As a brit- I will still make fun of the American accent and spellings even tho they technically are the first

For me, Hunchback will always be the best movie, because of how brave, inspiring and heart-breaking it is. The scene when that little girl approches Quasimodo, touches his face and hugs him, leaves me sobbing every single time. The musical is also one of my favorites, and I enjoyed the book as well, but the Disney film captures its magic so perfectly in tiny details, and the score is so wonderful. I love that Heaven-Hell narrative expressed EVERYWHERE in the movie, and both Heaven's Light (one of my favorite songs ever) and Hellfire one after the other. I didn't really understand the film as a kid, I simply liked seeing gypsies represented, as I myself grew up in a gypsie community, but this film is not only dark and deep, but also powerful and groundbreaking. I learnt to love it as a teen. Every time I see it, it brings something new. This movie will stay with me for the rest of my life❤️

It subtly shows how war changes people, the soldiers are all goofy and fun until the war becomes real to them.

I always disliked how they did the "both sides are wrong!!!!" thing with pocahontas (disclaimer, I'm not native american) were the native americans always these perfect, spiritual, and kind people? no, native americans are human too, there are certainly native americans that did shitty things, as with every single group of people on the entire planet. but the anglo-powhatan wars weren't really this morally grey issue like pocahontas the movie portrays it as. the british settlers completly took advantage of the native americans initial kindness and welcoming. what the british did to them is unacceptable. the native americans were right to defend themselves and react the way they did, unlike the movie which seems to make a mockery of this tragic story. it implies that the native americans shouldn't have fought back and that the solution was just love and acceptance. even tho in reality the only love in the actual story of the real pocahontas (she was actually known as matoaka, and born as amonute. pocahontas was just a nickname) was the fake love of john rolfe and the innocent native american woman he kidnapped from her people, her father, and the fellow native american husband that she already had again, native americans arent infallible, but the anglo-powhatan wars had a very clear villian

[@mldavid4056]

Many scholars don't believe Kocoum (Pochahontas' alleged first husband) actually existed, and the only known record that mentions the name "Kocoum" is believed by some to actually be referring to John Rolfe because of when it was written, John Rolfe wasn't even remotely involved with her kidnapping, their marriage actually created a brief period of peace between the colonists and the Powhatans, and as far as I can tell there was legitimate love between them.

It was treated as more of a side movie that wasn’t meant to do that well, while Pocahontas was expected to be the real deal which would make a ton of money and be a hit with audiences and critics. Pocahontas earned mostly middling reviews and wasn’t exactly that much big of a hit, while The Lion King earned fantastic reviews and became one of the highest grossing animated movies of all time.

I was born in May 1991. As much as I "loved" these movies as a mindless toddler, I was honestly too young to truly "appreciate" or understand the release of these movies, I just realized. But this must have been a phenomenal experience for those 10+, to see a huge beautifully animated epic on the big screen, one year after another, and just as soon as the 90s started. This was when Disney has become an exciting yearly event. This must have left people wondering what they'll bring next, only to be amazingly surprised by their next movie.

[@lovelyfluer]

8 year old me was more interested in the songs and Beasts transformation with beauty and the beast. However just last year when I rewatched beauty and the beast I could finally understand and see how their love blossomed. This made me find a new love for Belle and I think she mightve been the first Disney princess at the time who had a personality.

[@R0man.Geck0]

The reason mulan has so few songs is because after the scene where they reach the Tung Shao pass, the film was supposed to have a lot more of a darker tone. Hence the lack of songs in the second half

I mean I guess that makes sense but it doesn’t follow the musical theatre format. The character are supposed to speak until the emotion gets so high that they have to sing until the emotion gets so high that they have to dance.

They were going for a Best Picture nomination like they got with Beauty and the Beast but didn't realize what made that movie get a nomination, ie its amazing writing and well-written characters, especially in the arc for the Beast.

They wanted people to believe this was an important, meaningful story without actually giving one.

[@starfyre59]

@@Account_Not_Applicable It's honestly sad that the Lion King didn't get a best picture nomination. While I honestly love Pocahontas (to each their own) The Lion King is one of the most genius movies ever conceived. Take one of the greatest stories ever written, Hamlet, and add the Disney energy. Charming characters, hilarious jokes, more heartfelt moments, and incredible songs, it creates one of the greatest movies I've ever seen.

BB Gunz170 EXACTLY. Even ignoring that it looks nothing like a jaguar... Why would there be a jaguar in AFRICA?? watch some damn Big Cat Diary people ffs Edit for more info: Not only does it look nothing like a cheetah, in spot pattern or body shape... more importantly, cheetahs cannot climb trees, because they have doglike paws more suited to running, rather than catlike paws with retractable claws (which are ideal for climbing). Also, a cheetah would NEVER go after a gorilla... cheetahs are small, and always go after small prey like gazelles. Lions can't really climb well either, but for a different reason - they have the right paw structure, but they're simply too heavy/big to climb once they're adults, generally.
