This thread is to discuss all about the movies and shows of The Lion King.
So let's begin with my rankings...
1. The Lion King (1994) 2. The Lion King one and half/Hakuna Matata (2004) 3. The Lion Guard (2016-2019) 4. The Lion King: Simba's Pride (1998) 5. Timon & Pumbaa's Show (1995-1999) 6. The Lion King Remake (2019)
It's not that I have nothing against SP (I liked Kovu, Nuka and Vitani) and the ones below but I enjoyed a little more the three top, the second movie I'm neutral (Simba's attitued towards Timon, Pumbaa and Kiara was awful and the colours in that movie...), while the Timon & Pumbaa show well... I didn't watch the episodes with humans in it (don't ask me why, I just don't see LK clash with humans) but other than that it's okay (even thought I've watched the first season), there's some funny moments but that's all, nothing special (unlike other LK fans who loves it). As for the LK remake, it didn't impress me much, especially if they sang the "Can you feel the love Tonight?" song in the day.
As for my top three, the reason why I love them will be explained. The Lion King, I don't need to give you an explanation on that one. The third one, because not just of my favourite characters but like I previously said I enjoyed it better than the second one and how we see some glimpse of the duo raising Simba was pretty cute and the ending where Simba hugs them was fantastic, so I put this movie as semi-canon. The Lion Guard, what I liked about it was it was fresh and had new characters, the colours and the backgrounds were beautiful, even thought there's some things that didn't impress me much I still liked the two first seasons and some episodes of the third season (I wasn't too fond of the third season).
What about you guys, what did you think of the shows and movies of The Lion King?

Interesting. I know I'm boring and I guess out of the loop, but I never knew there were so many Lion King movies. The only one I've ever seen is the original. I knew about the 2019 remake but that looked terrible to me so I never saw it.
I like the original a lot and I wouldn't want to diminish my love of that one with(IMO) a sub-par sequel. Some things don't need to be messed with or need a sequel, I think.
So, in short, I've seen nothing but the original Lion King and I love it. Sorry to add nothing of relevance to your post.

I've only see the original too, but I'm interested in The Lion Guard, it looks well animated. I saw a scene where Scar is now some fire spirit in a pool of lava. What can you tell me about that? There is a popular stage musical, that I've seen clips of as well.

That's alright, the original is always going to be a masterpiece but like I said I did love the midquel/parody of it also, and it's okay if you only watched the original, it's not the end of the world.
Silent Scream Queen , sure go search the user Catalina D Jones on Youtube and you'll see all the episodes are there. It's nice that there was something new after around 20ish years, however I only knew about it last year so, this was a nice discover for me. I won't say anything else to spoil for you if you want to watch it. I'll share you my first and the most favourite episode from that show...

HoneyGoddess57 Thank you. I'll watch later today. I'm sure I'll enjoy it. When does Scar reappear? Is it later series?

I watched it and enjoyed it. And I'd probably watch more, it's finding the time. Like so many things.
