To be fair, they weren't wrong

yeah he could've just stayed there and enjoy the chill way life there BUT he chose to help the lion clan that was under the dictator and the hyenas, so he chose to save his people. Like something in the bible probably

It's based on Hamlet. So Shakespeare, not the bible.

Shakespeare wasn't one person, he was actually a collection of Bibles writing under a pseudonym

Biblically accurate Shakespeare can't hurt you.

"And before they could nail him to the cross, Jesus immediately vanished before them. All who saw this were amazed. Then a voice from the heavens, sounding as though it were the son of God spoke saying, 'The better part of valour is discretion.'"--The Gospel According to Sir John Falstaff

Shakespeare wasn’t one person, he was actually a collection of ~~Bibles~~ monkeys with typewriters writing under a pseudonym

"Collection of bibles" makes it sound like it was supposed to be a device to control the masses written by absolute psychos on substances not even known to mankind anymore.

It's based on Kimba the White Lion, which is based on Hamlet, which is based on an episode of The Office (US).

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And that episode got its source material from Game of Thrones.

I'm waiting for The Lion King based on Oedipus.

That would definitely require a hakuna matata attitude after Simba gouged his eyes out.
