  1. Ya, Disney movies don’t hold up like they used to. I think the last 10/10 film Disney made was Wreck-It Ralph in 2012. I didn’t like Elsa in Frozen 1 or 2. Big Hero 6 was alright but needed something. Zootopia comes close to a 10, but the villain & emotional connection was lacking. A lot of people like Moana, but I am not a fan. The songs were good but needed more variety, Maui was underutilized, & the emotional connection for me again was lacking. Ralph Breaks the Internet ruined Ralph’s character & they broke their own rules from the 1st movie. Raya was cool, but the MC got the short end of the stick & the story felt empty. Encanto was really good, close to 10, but the ending was not handled well & the MC got the short end of the stick again. I haven’t seen Strange World, but from what I heard, the movie doesn’t have that Disney charm & was just not handled with care. Hopefully, Disney will improve, but I am glad you are watching the older films. Sorry for the long message.

  2. Real quick, great reaction. Watch Lion King 1/2 (Timon & Pumba POV and funny) and 2 (fun story). My sister & I enjoyed them a lot. Scar’s song is my 2nd favorite villain song & villain. The first would be from Hunchback. But my sister loves Scar, both song & villain. Scar planned and killed his brother & manipulated Simba many times. He is a villain who got what he wanted for at least four years. Izma from Emporer only ruled for like a day, and so did Jafar in Aladin. You could argue that Mother Gothel achieved her goal for 18 years because she kidnapped Rapunzel, but her goal in the movie was to get Rapunzel back and live forever. However, she fails when Rapunzel realizes she is the princes.

  3. Jumping on the Lion King 2 and 1&1/2 train!
    Also the Treasure Planet and Atlantis trains.
    And just get all the Phil Collins songs out of the way and do Tarzan and Brother Bear! ?

  4. You should definitely watch the ‘Son of Batman’ movie collection. It includes numerous breathtaking animated fight scenes starring Batman, Robin (Damian Wayne), and Nightwing (Dick Grayson, the Robin from Teen Titans).

  5. Watch the ‘Son of Batman’ movie collection. Lots of AMAZING animated fight scenes and it features Batman, Robin (Damian Wayne), and Nightwing (Dick Grayson, the Robin you see in the Teen Titans).

  6. Also, the craziest thing to think about scar is so much of a coward because even during that fight scene with him and Simba he had a better chance of winning Simba didn’t grow up fighting or hunting or doing anything. He might’ve been more physically strong, but scar grew up like a lion, and he was winning Simba got the upper hand for a split second but scar would’ve won that fight in the end, but he still chose to fight Dirty

  7. You guys have just gotta revisit hunchback of Notre Dame between that and lion king are two of the most masterfully, crafted movies of the Disney Renaissance and Disney history in general animation, plot, musical score and definitely the villains

  8. My issue with live-action remakes, is people who think it’s the more “mature/adult” option vs the original cartoon which is “just for kids” *because* it’s animation. It’s really frustrating how so many people think cartoons is kid-stuff, when cartoons were originally made FOR ADULTS. And so many animations, especially anime and the like, are made with so much heart and even serious topics, for an older audience, and these people will STILL see it as “kid-stuff” because of the media.

    I’ve never been huge on most live-action series/movies, always preferring animation/cartoons. The media is so amazing, and takes a lot of hard work to make it great. The dedication for artists to make animated series/movies is just… so impressive.

  9. Please react to the second one!! I always thought that it was one of the rare sequels that was actually on par with the original! Love watching your reactions 🙂

  10. Other then those mentioned already, also react to Aladdin if you haven’t seen it yet. One of Robin Williams best (if not THE best) performances in animation

  11. I would recommend that you watch Lion king 1 1/2, and lion king 2 ? they’re both great in my opinion. There is also a TV series from the 90’s following Timon and pumba, and a newer TV series on Disney called “the lion guard”, if y’all are interested ?

  12. My mom was TRAUMATIZED by this movie. I showed her the beginning sun rising scene and told her to guess the movie and asked ‘what is wrong with you guys’ ?

  13. Y’know I’ve always kind of felt bad for the hyenas. Their motivation is that they’re starving to death. They’re confined to the Elephant Graveyard and apparently it’s illegal for them to hunt in the Pride Lands as evidenced by the gopher telling Zazu that hyenas had committed the horrible crime of being seen outside their land. It’s like they’re the outcasts. They clearly only sided with Scar to get fed.

  14. Please, watch Lion King 2 and Lion King One In a Half those are my favorite Lion King movies. And if this means you’re gonna watch Disney movies I hope you guys react to the Lilo & Stitch series.

  15. Y’know funny you should mention Scar being an incel because there’s some unused Storyboard art for the film that’s…..disturbing. Basically they were originally going to make Scar SA Nala and try to take her as his queen. When she refused, he banished her which leads to her reunion with Simba in the oasis. Definitely an incel move.

  16. some movies i think ruff and bree ahould react to are mission impossible movies, star wars movies, the cornetto trilogy, the kingsmen trilogy and the lord of the ring/hobbit movies

  17. Ayyy! I remember seeing this in theaters when I was 8 years old. I asked for the soundtrack that christmas, and my parents bought it. I didn’t give a shit about the disney songs, or the Elton John versions on the CD, they were fine. But I FUCKING LOVED the Hans Zimmer and Lebo M score. It’s burned into my brain by endless replay.
