Well, yes, they took some images and elements from Kimba and injected it into Hamlet's story.
Hamlet is about a Danish prince who's father was murdered by his uncle so he could take over the throne. He finds out about it when he sees the ghost of his father (have I got all that right? I haven't read it). Obviously there's differences (for example, Simba didn't know jack s*** until the end), but overall it has the same story. The Kimba stuff was already detailed in the link.

well either way...i like The Lion King the best for 3 reasons
1. Im not going to read Hamlet unless its for school
2. I have never heard of Kimba before and dont plan on seeing any of it
and 3. The Lion King is the only thing I have read/seen

That's less you preferring Lion King and more you flat out refusing to involve yourself in the other two.
Also, why is it that Shakespeare is always associated with reading? They're plays, it was meant to be a visual experience.

Heh heh, every time I think of Hamlet, I think of MST3K where they watch the Screaming Skull.
There's one scene where a woman picks up a skull, shrieks, and throws it out the window. And Crow talks over it with "Alas, poor Yorick, I threw him well."
Midsummer Night's Dream was my favorite. Followed by Hamlet and Othello. Didn't particularly care for Romeo and Juliet. I have yet to read Richard III, even though one of my favorite songs was based on it.
<rant>
I blame the public school system for making kids hate reading. An illiterate populace is easily controlled. -_- That's why they make you read depressing, pointless, idiotic crap in elementary and middle school, so that they can pretend to expose highschoolers to quality literature, knowing quite well that no one will care about it if they even bother to read it at all.

There's a movie of it I've seen that's quite good... they've done the play itself fairly straight but the setting is dressed up as 1930s-England-as-a-banana-republic.PariahPoet wrote:I have yet to read Richard III, even though one of my favorite songs was based on it.
We got that in my day as well, right up to high school. Dour and depressing stuff like That Was Then, This Is Now and To Kill a Mockingbird that I just couldn't stand. I ran with a small crowd who tended to listen to down and depressing music (Joy Division, Marianne Faithfull etc. - we'd probably have been called "goths" nowadays). Luckily we had a geography (!) teacher who was also a prominent (and quite mad) amateur theatre producer. So the school was inveigled into sending school groups to his Shakespeare productions. The classic (one I still remember a quarter of a century later) was A Midsummer Nights Dream, with all the fairies done up as bikers (Titania and Oberon looked like they'd just stepped out of 1952 Vincent Black Lightning) and Puck, in brightly coloured, spiked hair, pedalling his way across the stage on a child's bicycle. Bizarre but so memorable.PariahPoet wrote:That's why they make you read depressing, pointless, idiotic crap in elementary and middle school

I like to read. although I still think that Comics are a better format for fiction than books (Nonfiction books like "The Assault on Reason" are better in book form). Anyone read Graphic Classic, all those old stories adapted into comic book form? Kicks a**.PariahPoet wrote:Heh heh, every time I think of Hamlet, I think of MST3K where they watch the Screaming Skull.

Hehe... I made the barrel roll comment because i haven't seen that one (and prolly judging to the DTV animation standard at the time, i'd be too scared to), and apparently according to some reviews i've seen of 1-1/2, that seemed to be the most prevalent comparison on that one.Dreamer wrote:I get the first one, but not the joke on the last two (I know what you're referencing on the second one though)AladasianTheMeerkat wrote:All you know about the three TLK's is this...
TLK1: Hamlet
TLK2: DO A BARREL ROLL
TLK1/2: Rosencrantz and Guilderstein are Dead
I guess that's one you might need to google as well.

Holy crap, you're right! For the record, though, the second one is Romeo and Juliet.

What about the lesson of not placing your home around steep ledges so one does not fall and die? What about that? I don't know about you, but acuna mawhata(not having any worries) kind of gets you killed in the end since one chooses to be so careless.
Two lions die from falling off of rock ledges. Another nearly bites it twice(Simba). Stupid lions. Ledges are for lawyers and stockbrokers.
But really, I liked the movie, but it just reminds me of another movie I grew up with. BAMBI. I vote Bambi over the Lion King any day. That one always bring a tear to my eye, especially when his mommy goes boom.
