re: Jon Favreau will helm a Live Action Adaptation of The Lion King

Favreau doesn't get the credit that he deserves. He set the tone and launched the entire Marvel Studios / Disney Megamovieverse and now he's the architect of Disney's latest goose that will lay an unlimited number of billion dollar golden eggs.

If you didn't see him on Robert Rodriguez's Director's Chair show on El Rey last week, check it out. It's a great interview.
