The Lion King is a wonderful animated movie. I remember seeing this film for the first time years ago with my family when it came out on VHS tape. I think that my dad enjoyed the movie the most. Amazing. Although my dad has been gone for three years now, it really does not seem like it. This really is something. This post is about The Lion King and my father’s name was Leo. Next, I see that there is a character named Nala.
I wonder if Halle Berry thought of this name when she named her daughter. I think that her daughter’s name has a letter “h” at the end of her name though. Cute post. Very cute and memorable.

Lion King was based off a Japanese animation called Kimba the White Lion. I dob’t believe Disney have EVER done an original story.

  And? Why do you have to share this information? A good amount of people have known this already, just like you. The quotes aren’t from Kimba, so there’s nothing here about it.

Kimba’s and Simba’s stories are entertaining and worthy of praise. Kimba was simply first, entertaining thousands from late 1950 on. The character parallels in each universe are too numerous and precise to make coincidence believable though. I have fond memories of the Kimba jungle lord series from my childhood. I have many more fond memories of enjoying Simba in the lion king movies with my daughter.
