I would love to see the Lion King movie in the theater.  My 23 year old granddaughter saw it and absolutely loved it.

I'll pass, but I love the new Elton John song on the soundtrack. <3

I haven't seen the movie yet, but based on the comments and reviews of those who have seen it, I am absolutely excited to watch it for myself.

I grew up watching the 1994 Disney version, so I am trying not to be too biased. I will be honest, though, one of the main reasons I want to watch it is because Beyonce is involved.

I would love to see The Lion King.  My work schedule prohibited me from getting to the theater this weekend.  I guess I'll have to wait til it's available for rent at a Red Box.

I have not seen the new movie yet. I am a little afraid to see the new movie because I don't want it to be bad. The original animated cartoon version is my favorite cartoon movie of all time.

I want to see the new version, but I'm also afraid it will be bad despite pretty good reviews.

I saw it and my previous post was pretty much right. In this one the animals looked so close to real (in an uncanny valley way) that it was like watching nature footage, they did not really emote the way the cartoons could with full-on facial expressions, and for that reason I felt a lot of the emotional resonance was sucked out of it, for example Mufasa's death felt about a tenth as sad. I am not on the Beyonce worship train and was not impressed by her or really anyone's voice acting in this. And they all but scrapped the only musical number I ever kind of liked.

Final verdict: okay but inferior. Save your money and wait til it shows up on netflix.
