New Lion King film cutting the song “Be Prepared” from the film

Uhhh... it’s the best song in the movie. I said it when the cast was announced. It’s great they brought back James Earl Jones for Mufasa, but they also needed to bring back Jeremy Irons for Scar, but they didn’t because they want all the lions voiced by African Americans, which I didn’t really care about but now I do because it’s resulting in the best Lion King song being taken from the new film because they probably did tests and realied the new Scar voice actor can’t even come close to the Irons performance.

Is it cause of the goose stepping hyenas?

We actually watch Lion King at our house yesterday after breakfast. We put it on for our 2.5 year old son, and he just ran around the house playing while Mom and Dad watched the entire thing.
And yes, Be Prepared is the best song in the movie and the best Disney villain song ever.
Spin-off...is the opening of the Lion King one of the GOATs for movie openings? I think so.

Wait, this isn't a sequel, it's a remake? Of a cartoon movie aimed at kids? That seems like a dumb idea. Is the problem that parents are passing down their DVD copy to their kids and so Lion King Blu Ray sales aren't high enough?

Lol.
Whole generations grew up on family movies with drama and well done scripts and villains and symbolism and they're as awesome for a 3 year old and a thirty year old alike.
I'd bet they cut it either because they deemed it too scary for kids or racist or some dumb shite like that.
Disney killed Star Wars. Now it's going to try to snuff out its own IPs as well. This movie has nonsense written all over it. Looking at the cast list they're adding characters and changing the plot.
I enjoyed the new jungle book. I even thought the new Beauty and the beast was OK, but neither of them can come close to holding a candle to the amazing originals.

Be Prepared is amazing in the original. The last 30 seconds or so are really epic.
The hyenas marching in sync like Red Square or Berlin is awesome too.
RIP Be Prepared.

I was skeptical already when I heard Beyoncé was cast in this movie 
. Now I’m really debating on if this movie will do the original source material any justice by them eliminating Be Prepared.

The lack of quality original content in movies today is really disappointing. Studios have basically caught on that they can just stick with a brand/series until the brakes absolutely are beat off and still make tons of money.

It sucks they cut a really good song from a cartoon full of really good songs.
But be prepared would probably be hard to flow into a live action Lion King.

If Rogue One is anything to go by, I’d much rather they bring back Irons than JEJ. JEJ sounded like he was on the verge of death in that movie. I think Idris Elba would have made a fine Mufasa, and would serve as a nice reflection from Shere Khan. And if you’re not going with Jeremy Irons as Scar, go with Benedict Cumberbatch. I don’t buy that they should all be black anymore than everyone in the Jungle Book should have been played by Indians.

Actually Jeremy Irons didn’t sing most of Be Prepared. That was Jim Cummings.

Sounds like you always cared b/c you completely made a up a reason in your head for why it was cut.

My second favorite Villain Song.
In the Dark of the Night from Anastasia is the best. I think Kesley Grammer songs it

That's one hell of a sentence

I distinctly remember the exact moment I realized what that scene was all about. I'd seen that shite 10+ times as a kid then one day watching something on TV about WW2 when I was 11 I was like "Oh, it's Nazis".
