I saw
The Lion King in 3D yesterday! Which was fun, but it didn't really make any difference to the movie, except for making the scenery seem cooler and as if it had more depth. But it was great just to be able to see it at the movies again. They should re release more Disney movies at the cinemas! They don't even have to bother with the 3D part. Anyway, watching it again made me feel really sorry for Simba's mother. Her husband (is it still a husband when you're a lion? I think they refer to Thomas as a potential husband in
The Aristocats and lions are basically cats so husband should work. idc.) dies, she thinks he son is dead, she's no longer queen and she has to put up with Scar as the new king. Despite all this, when Scar calls her to talk about the lack of food and she has to walk through all those hyenas, she still looks SO regal and I loved that. Then, she finds out her son isn't deal but that he killed her husband (which is thankfully all cleared up eventually, but for a few minutes she thinks that). I think it'd be really interesting to see the movie from her pov and see how bad the pride lands were with Scar as king because you only ever see it when Zazu and the hyenas are complaining and never get to see it from the lion's pov.
Also, I am finally on midsemester break! Except it's week 9 so it's more like 3/4 semester break but whatever, a break is good no matter when it is! Now that I've got some time until I go away for the long weekend, I'm going to do some memes! Also,
corsair , I think it'd be fun/interesting to do backstory/prequel type logs for ~scandaled (not necessarily this week because I don't know how busy you are! but at some point). because flashbacks in gg are always interesting and I loved the prequel book because it explained so much in the later books. and mainly I just think it's be fun to see more of tiffany, audrey, max and baxter and their friendship before things got all complicated and it'd be good for character development.
