Of Kimba, the White Lion.


Just a couple picture examples, but much more in the link above, including plot points and info about Disney's denial:

I looked up that stuff after seeing this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFtBjc1dz7w

Funniest Honest Trailer ever, IMO.

it's hamlet.

kinda sorta

mostly that was their excuse to try and avoid a lawsuit.

its pretty clear they knew about the Kimba flick just by watching the movies.

no shit. it was originally being produced as a remake i thought everyone knew this? Same as pirates of the carribean started life as a monkey island movie

Who cares. Lion King = GOAT Disney movie. Best cold opening for a movie, too.

Deal with it.

So was Avatar, and yet for some reason people still paid top dollar to see 3D pocahontas.

Can't wait until 4D comes out and remix of 3 little pigs sells for $1B revenue.

I always likened Avatar to Dances with Wolves

A number of Disney's films are replications of projects that were once in the public domain. God forbid you try to replicate theirs though...
