I love the music, but nothing else appeals to me, except the stage play

I’ve not seen any version of it and currently have no plans to see it. Has never appealed to me.

I don't remember it being that emotional.  I did see it 100 times over the years because I had young children.  The original was a lovely movie and perfect for children.  I wich my grandchildren were older, it would be perfect outing for hubby and me to take them on.

My son turned 36 over the weekend and I still have the Lion King on VHS with a player to view all those old tapes from time to time.  My Granddaughter now watches that same tape of her Dad's on sleepovers.  Amazing feeling when you do all over again with new eyes @chrystaltree .  Grandchildren are our reward.

Saw the play, but it wasn't a tear jerker.

@Anonymous032819   Aww...I can understand. I was 25 when Lion King 1994 came out finishing my 1st year of teaching.  I can also relate to "Dumbo".  I loved the original as a child and crying about his mommy.  I haven't seen the new movie yet.  I do remember going to Disney World at age 4 and really wanting to ride the "Dumbo" ride.  My mom reminds me that i wanted to go home after riding Dumbo.  Thanks for the memory.   My goal is to eventually see both Dumbo and the new Lion King.Cat Very Happy

I'm not short...I'm fun size!

Most of the movies featuring animals are so so sad....Bambi, Dumbo, Old Yeller, Thomasina, The Yearling, Lion King etc etc.....They are just too sad and depressing......And the real life state of so many animals today is just as sad Cat Sad  I do what I can to help by contributing to organizations that help animals, but I'm not viewing these sad movies as my choice for entertainment....

Animals are reliable, full of love, true in their affections, grateful. Difficult standards for people to live up to.”
