Silly tankie snek. In 2020, homosexual allegory isn't enough. The protagonist will have to be a trans masc asexual lion who otherkins a human by default to check all those juicy identity boxes.

So now we're getting live action adaptations of shit that was bad enough that it went direct to video in the first place?

The absolute fucking state of Disney.
 
The first Lion King remake was so poorly produced that Adum from YMS is still finding new shit to criticize during his dissections, prompting him to delay his review of it by more months. Considering this is a sequel that barely anyone remembers, what makes them think this will do just as well, if not better, than the 2019 remake of the first one?

Fuck you! I remember it BIGLY. In UPENDI and Not One of Us are better songs that 90% of what's in the original movie, and I still love the original movie.


That said hopefully it fails. Moonlight is a shit movie and I absolutely hate that we are seeing clear segregation gaining prominence with "black" movies being roped off for only black directors to do.

Lion King ain't even a black movie :(
 
The movie will be a continuation of the studio’s 2019 photorealistic remake, rather than the 1994 cartoon.

Sources say the new movie will partly focus on the early years of Mufasa, the regal father of Simba whose death forms the emotional heart of the first film and its remake. Jeff Nathanson, who wrote the screenplay for the 2019 movie, is returning to write the follow-up.

Say what you will about Simba's Pride I remember it fondly enough tbh , but at least it adhered to the "it's Shakespeare but with lions" formula while introducing new conflict to the story. I don't trust NEW IMPROVED LIVE ACTION Disney to care about themes to even that level.
 
It's cute that you think this is going to be a live action version of the original sequel-which I will to this day still defend as being better than it had any right to be. I'm expecting something far worse.
 
The OP is a fucking faggot that can't make a decent thread.

The ride never ends, my dudes.

‘The Lion King’ Follow-Up Set With ‘Moonlight’ Director Barry Jenkins To Helm For Walt Disney Studios
EXCLUSIVE: The Walt Disney Studios has set Oscar winner Barry Jenkins to direct the studio’s follow-up to the 2019 blockbuster The Lion King. Jeff Nathanson, who scripted the last installment, is back in the fold and has completed an initial draft of script. Jenkins won the Oscar for scripting the Best Picture winner Moonlight and was nominated for adapting If Beale Street Could Talk (he directed both).

The film will continue with the photo-realistic technology that director Jon Favreau used in the 2019 film and 2016’s The Jungle Book. There is no release date set for The Lion King follow-up or for the production start, but it is understandably a top priority for Sean Bailey’s division after the last film grossed $1.6 billion worldwide.

They are keeping the logline under wraps, but I’m told that the story will further explore the mythology of the characters, including Mufasa’s origin story. Moving the story forward while looking back conjures memories of The Godfather: Part II, set on the African plain with a continuation of the tradition of music that was a key part of the 1994 animated classic, the 2019 film and the blockbuster Broadway stage transfer.

This is Jenkins’ second film project at Disney, as he is also planning to direct a biopic of famed choreographer Alvin Ailey for Searchlight. Jenkins has completed for Amazon a limited series adaptation of Colson Whitehead’s National Book Award- and Pulitzer-winning The Underground Railroad, directing all the episodes and writing several of them. Jenkins has separately scripted a drama based on the first American female Olympic boxing champ, Clarissa “T-Rex” Shields, and an adaptation of Netflix documentary Virunga, about the battle to save the Congo’s mountain gorilla population.

Why do the have to do this? Who needed an origin story for Mufasa? Who wanted more dead-eyed CGI lions? How will this faglord shoehorn in his love for racial and queer elements? Will we find out that Mufasa was actually a stunning and brave bisexual transgender lion expelled by a pride of all-white lions for the crime of being a FOC? (Feline of color)
He probably had to overcome feline AIDS as well, I am sure.

Who wants to place bets on which completely inappropriate whispy-voiced, bad-acting baboon they will get to voice young Mufasa?
 
There's no fucking way that they will put any LGBT stuff in a major movie like this, the CCP doesn't allow a movie with an openly LGBT character to be released in China, that's why Disney does this shit where they have minor gay characters kiss for 2 seconds so that it can be cut out before releasing the movie in China, Russia and other not-so-tolerant places.

Woke points on social media are nice but Disney is struggling financially right now so they will make the most bland non-controversial movie ever in order to make a large profit.
 
Go ahead and add LBGT stuff to something you market towards the black community. I'm sure it won't back fire.
