Mufasa was a despot. Scar was a champion of the underclass (the Hyenas). He was breaking social and class barriers when he rose against Mufasa and gave Hyenas a say in the dealings of the Kingdom.
The turbulence seen in the kingdom after Scar took over is akin to any post-revolution society. There's always going to be class warfare and some chaos, but in the long-run, any society will eventually thrive.
The Lion King was like Egypt post-Arab Spring. Mufasa was Hosni Mubarak. Scar and the Hyenas was the post-overthrow chaos that followed, and Symba coming back was like when Muhammad Morsi tookover and claimed dictatorship once again.
The real them in that movie, IMO, was that the upper class should always remain in power. It's just brainwashing by the oligarchy so they can remain in power.
i saw mufasa as ? , Scar as satan, Simba (Mufasa son) as Gods son Jesus..
but the mufasa set up wasnt satan killing ? .. that was another biblical story of cain and abel.. as a way to separate ? from the world.. cain killed abel out of jealousy..
the hyenas, scars people were his demons.. and the lions, were Gods angels...
and Simbas return to the land was Jesus' 2nd coming.
remember at the battle at the end of the movie, there was a fire, and who was casted into the fire.
in a nutshell.
The beauty of art is that it can be interpreted in many different ways. The failings of art is also that it can be interpereted i many different ways.
Like when you get those hippy ? who look at paintings of a fruitbowl on a table and talk about how the contrast of a shadow on the table is symbolism for the hungry and starved, and that a blue table cloth represents some ? like the struggle between the past and the future.
That said, The Lion King is just a re-rendering of an old African tale anyways, as are most 90's Disney animated movies.
biblical stories are washed and repeated in so many movies.. the Bible is the most famous book in the history of the earth... even tarzans appearance is based on Jesus as a baby.. found in a basket by a river, etc...
the lion king is exactly as i showed you...
why was scar jealous of mufasa and simba? because scar wanted their position of power... sound familiar, right? satan wants to be ? ... and hes not but his jealousy eats away at him so he declared war with ? ..
satan reigned on earth, as he is now.. just as scar reigned in the lion "KING"... whos the king of KINGS? ? . at the end of the movie, there was the battle of armageddon.. satan and his demons vs Jesus and His angels.. i mean, scar and his hyenas and Simba and his lions... and satan was casted into the fire... i mean scar was and his demons.. err.. hyenas. -
The Uncle dynamic from The Lion King and the basic story is largely if not almost entirely lifted from Hamlet. Not the Bible. I can see some of the similarities to biblical presentation, but it's not a complete Biblical retelling. If it was, then that would mean Hamlet and likely other Shakespeare stories were revisions of biblical archetypes. And the whole reason Shakespeare is so popular and so re-used is that he is credited with changing the dynamic of storytelling b/c of his introduction/popularization of little-used or previously-unused archetypes for stories.
And it was Moses in the basket, not Jesus. -

where do you think hamlet got their story from.
i explained it to you, the story lines over-lap. you cant deny the biblical influence but accept the hamlet influence.. cuz its all 1 and the same.

you so emotional. you probably spend the most time on the IC along with stopitfive... and you calling me a house ? .... not sure where this comes from lol. just had to get a insult in there i guess. -

except Satan wasn't Jesus' uncle and didn't ? ? .
and i didn't deny some biblical overtones, it's just that that is what it is...some biblical overtones. the story is almost entirely lifted from Hamlet, right down to Timone and Pumba being the Rosencrantz & Gildenstern characters from Hamlet. Two characters that have been reinvented in countless stories post-Shakespeare's Hamlet.
But you've digressed from my main point, which was the modern political overtones and its parallel to post-Arab Spring Egypt. -

Jesus is Gods son and satan was Gods most powerful angel.
whether satan is Jesus' uncle or not is irrelevant to the story the lion king used from the Bible.. its a movie.. they are allowed to mix-match different things. the base is still there. no matter the titles of the people.
anyway. im conflicted.
bowl of cereal or noodles.. im torn. never thought this decision would be so tough.
