    "Fuck you Scar
    I won't even need to sing
    Get the fuck out here
    Because I'm The Lion King." - Simba, The Lion King

    And they're remaking this shit?!

    Ugh. The storyline of The Lion King is filled with so many Disney-ish cliches. And in spite of all this, this movie has the most meme-worthy scenes ever created for a musical. I've seen a sports arena that tried to make parents replicate the Pride Rock scene by showing them on the "Simba cam." Gee whiz...
    Well, I guess the movie is good. It has music from Elton John. End of story.

      Editing … Be Prepared is possibly Disney's best Villain Song. That or Gaston; it's hard to choose.

      Editing … I've never really considered Gaston a villain song, after all Lefou sings most of it. It's more of a "brown-nosed suck-up" song. Still, whatever it qualifies as I put it miles above Be Prepared. Ya can't beat those Menken and Ashman (RIP) collaborations.

      Editing … I think Gaston is hilarious but Be Prepared is fantastic spectacle really sold by Jeremy Irons' delivery. Menacing and thrilling.

      Editing … If Gaston counts then I think "I Wanna Be Like You" is my favorite Disney villain song.

      Editing … "Friends on the Other Side" is a good contender for best Disney villain song and so is "Hellfire".

      Editing … Hellfire is also really solid. I haven't seen The Princess and the Frog since around when it came out so I can't speak with much authority about it, but I remember liking the villain and his song.

    I just love how insulting it is that on my movies list I have The Lion King right below Kangaroo Jack and the Bedazzled remake.

      Editing … Lion King's OST is great. Instrumental or not, both Elthon John and Hans Zimmer made a fantastic job.

    proof that 'The Lion King' is a shameless rip-off:

    The Lion King is a great movie with an epic scale and a very emotional story. That being said, I do think that it's pretty overrated. Aladdin outshines this movie when it comes to music, characters, and humor and I prefer Beauty and the Beast's story and art direction. (please don't kill me guys :()

      Editing … Honestly, I'm not sure if it's just by default for guys because the other Disney films from that era were "girly" (Princess films) but The Lion King just doesn't do all that much for me. :U

      Editing … It's overrated in the films of 94 list because it doesn't belong ahead of Shawshank Redemption and Forrest Gump but I think that's just because so many people have seen it and a lot of us grew up with it. I don't think it's overrated in general. I'd say it's between this and The Jungle Book for the best Disney film, unless you count Pixar and then I'd probably say Up.

      Editing … I think Up is overrated :v I LOVE the first 10 mins or so, but after that it's just basic Pixar (Which IS great, because Pixar, but still) I much prefer the Toy Story, Monsters Inc or Wall-E

      Editing … Ironically enough Crash I think two of those are overrated. For me Pixar films go Up > Toy Story > Ratatouille > Toy Story 2 > Toy Story 3 > The Incredibles > Finding Nemo > Monsters Inc > Brave > A Bug's Life > Wall E. I agree Up's opening's the best part but I'd have said that's because it's the best 10 minutes or so in any Pixar film. After that I like the rest of the film a lot too.

      Editing … If we're doing tiers I'd say Up, Ratatouille and the three Toy Story films are great, The Incredibles, Finding Nemo and Monsters Inc are good and then the rest are just okay.
