I believe this just came out a couple of days ago. Much though I’m not a fan of Disney, or indeed the “live action” (in this case, that’s a lol in itself) remakes, at least this is an original story, even if it completely retcons the entire Lion King plot, lol…
I won’t spoil it, but, umm, I would say it is to The (original) Lion King what Wicked is to The Wizard of Oz. Very much the same concept. And doesn’t really make sense, if we’re taking the story from the original as being the (fictional) truth.
Anyway, it also features tribes of lions differentiated by fur colour (lol), quite a lot of the biblical story of Moses, and lions climbing snowy mountains (in Southern Africa??), so… Yeah.
Looks relatively okay though, all things considered. But I would be interested in hearing the thoughts of others on it.
Gladiator is probably my favorite, along with Pirates of the Caribbean
Gladiator is (like the Lion King) mostly not his work, though he does deserve credit for it. Same with Pirates, of which the most well-known bits were composed by other people.
So I do agree that they are great, but all three of these were collabs that he has mostly taken all the credit for, lol…
