I don't PREFER LK, I would never call it a turd and consider it to be an all time great. Just my least favorite of the real classics

I detest the Lion King.

I don't like the lion king because I'm not a huge fan of celebrity voice acting

Jeremy irons meh

Nathan lane and JEJ

I don't think there is anything extraordinary about the animation, I hate that it's animals, I don't care for the story, I just don't like it, but it is probably the single most popular Disney film.

And to answer your question

The voice acting is sub par
Simba is stupid, and his arc is kind of perplexing
The musical score is light years behind LM and BB IMO
While the animation is great, so is the animation in a host of other Disney classics

Lion king is, like you said, forgettable.

He goes from "I just can't wait to be king" to "frick being king" in a matter of 5 seconds. Now I realize why and how much time has taken place but we never see the transformation and the catalyst is him meeting some jungle bums. Granted I realize this is in conjunction with him believing he was responsible for the criminally negligent homicide of his father

Understandable and I don't need a 15 minute sequence but they basically show this though the hakuna matata sequence which, for me, is lame

Yeah, definitely "all time great" praise throughout this thread from you.

You actually said Jeremy Irons was meh. Jeremy fricking Irons as Scar.
