I have too.... But The Lion King? I have to see it. Like, this is my everything haha. A top 5 film of all time for me, I NEED to see this through. I have so much emotionally tied into this film.

I’m not happy. Leave it as a cartoon or use humans, but don’t have an entire movie with CGI animals.

Me too. I love when someone cherry-picks a verse (usually homophobic, sexist or to further a racist agenda), insists the entire Bible is “god-breathed” and therefore every word is the word of God... and I can quote five other verses that directly contradict what they quoted. Often people tell me I’m making my verses…

The Lion King is my all-time favorite musical. The live show is absolutely amazing and the music never fails to bring me to tears. I am cautiously optimistic about this. Please don’t ruin this for me, Favreau!

word for word you wrote what I was about to write.

I’ve stated this before (too drunk to find the permalink) but I have always ranked The Lion King as my #1 Disney film and also my #1 animated movie. More than The Little Mermaid, more than Beauty and The Beast, more than Aladdin. I have been reallllllly cautiously optimistic about this, but fuck if I am not bouncing…

Doesn’t surprise me. I’m a non-believer but grew up vaguely Catholic and went to a Catholic elementary school. Religious studies was all about critically reading the Bible, seeing all the contradictions, never cherry-picking... there is an “intellectual Catholic” tradition, my school followed it, and I was very much…

You lost me at couldn’t have cared less. Lion King is my #1 Disney movie and it isn’t even close, so I’ve been oddly emotionally attached to this project

I don’t hate her, but everyone needs to cool their jets with the “YAAASSSS KWEEEEN” foolery.

I have never seen The Lion King because I dislike animation in general, especially Disney, so the boyfriend had to give me a detailed explanation of what it is about (beyond what I assumed was a lion that was a king of somewhere). Beyonce still isn’t enough to make me want to see this movie. This is probably going to…

But Beyoncé can’t act.

I go to church every Sunday. During the rest of the week I go out drinking and gambling, beat my kids and cheat on my wife. I am what is known in America as “a good Christian”.

I’m just really curious about the logistics... will it be humans in lion makeup? Real lions with human voice overs?

Bobby costs extra, obvi.

I am literally pissing all over myself

Unpopular opinion: I hate Beyoncé. And all musicals. I won tickets to Hamilton and gave them to a friend. Bleh

3rd gear will do that to you.

I’m afraid my take is a little more cynical. I think they (companies) are cutting ties so quickly because they knew, or had strong reason to know, about the allegations, but didn’t act.

I’m afraid there’s going to be a backlash. A lot of men who haven’t harassed or assaulted are still probably thinking this is all overblown and that some of what’s been reported is no big deal and/or made up. So they’ll retaliate/protect themselves by excluding women wherever they can. Men are still the majority…

I follow a number of abolitionists (hardcore anti-choicers), who are very religious people, and I’ve actually found that most of them can’t stand Trump. If you can imagine it, they don’t think he is nearly tough enough on abortion; they support candidates like Roy Moore and Dan Fisher. It’s pretty frightening, but at…
