What are you excited about?

July 19, 2019

Do you know what’s happening on this date?

It’s the day that many millennials are looking forward to because it will take them down memory lane. The Lion King remake will be released!

A very dim memory I have is sitting on a bed in a room with my cousins from my dad’s side and watching this movie. I was raised on Disney movies and princesses while Angel didn’t watch any when he was little. When we went to Disney World for our honeymoon, the first show we watched was the one for Lion King. I loved it! The singing was so good that it made me tear up. I am not crazy about musicals (big exception for The Greatest Showman) but I really like Disney songs.  I bought the original Lion King movie on Blu-Ray for him to watch when we came back from our trip, but he didn’t finish it. He couldn’t get past the simple graphics, so I am hoping that he really likes the remake.

My favorite character is Timon! He cracks me up. If you like Timon, you should watch the Lion King 1 1/2 movie because it’s filmed in his perspective. I think meerkats are the cutest animals, and I would love to play with one in real life. But I’ll settle for now with seeing Timon in the remake.

Who is your favorite character in The Lion King?
