When Simba is done singing the song "We are One" to Kiara he looks at Pride Rock and then to Kiara, confused. Why does he do that?

Do you have a moment that you didn't get?
Hmm, I don't get that one neither. Could anyone explain us what the scene means? :?
I believe Simba is reacting to Kiara's confused look when he is looking at Pride Rock and saying "we are one". Simba then smiles, and explains: "as long as you live here, it's who you are".

So basically, Kiara didn't understand how they could be one with a bit of rock, Simba notices her confusion, and then explains.

That's how I saw it anyway.

Yeah I thought that too, but I thought they didn't show Kiara looking at pride rock. That's why I was confused.

They do show Kiara looking at Pride Rock. When Simba looks up at it, the very next image is an extreme closeup of Kiara's face gazing and then looking confused. Then the 'camera' goes back to Simba, who turns to look at Kiara, and then frowns when he sees her confusion.

I suppose this might have been nitpicky, but it really bothered me at the time (and continues to). How could such a huge error slip through? Or am I missing something?

Hey, I don't remember that one, but good catch! It's probably an error - I found one too. After the forest burns down and right before Bambi comes across the water to the island, there are two big raccoons and a couple of babies. One of the big ones starts cleaning her baby, but then the baby disappears and she's left licking the air! :P It makes me laugh so hard . . . I show it to all my friends. The thing is, this is on the "Fully Restored" 55th Anniversary VHS. Hm. I wonder why they didn't catch it? :?

Heh, a restoration isn't supposed to remove mistakes that were originally in the film. :) That would be altering the film. The meaning of a restoration is the opposite, to preserve the film in it's original form.

Yeah, that's the confusion. You see Kiara looking confused, but I thought she was looking at Simba. Then I thought that Simba had like a "Are you looking at me, or at the rock?" look :p

This isn't really from a Disney movie, but from the promotions of a Disney movie. Disney keeps saying "Bust-a-Moo" about <b>Home on the Range</b>. Why is this supposed to be clever? Am I missing something or are they really doing a play-on-words with Young MC's classic 1989 rap "Bust a Move"? :?

How about this: Who is Chip's father? Is it possible that Lumiere got it on with all the women in the castle, or did perhaps she and Cogswoth have a bit of a romance at some time. We need answers.

I'd hate to think of the possibilities of inter-silverware love making - especially between Ms. Potts and Lumier. What would their baby look like?

I just thought it was the play on words...


As for the whole chip and Mrs.Potts thing, I guess somethings are better left unsaid, besides I doubt the father would be Lumiere or Cogsworth, since her name is Mrs. Potts, I would think Mr. Potts was the father, perhaps he is now dead, or on holiday from the castle...

One, I never did get in the movies how people fell in love with each other at one glance. Which reminds me of my English class when we went over love and the teacher said, "Don't look up while your in the cafeteria, you might catch someone's eye and be in love." :lol: It sounded better when he said it, cause I can't remember exactly.

Anyway, I also didn't get why Ursula in TLM, when she was a giant, held the trident over Ariel forever, she sure was taking her time. I know they weren't gonna let Ariel die, but still. If your gonna do that to someone, your not going to take all day(not that I ever would, don't get that idea, it was just a thought!!! :oops: )

This forum keeps saying invalid session every time I try to post, I'll be suprised if this post gets through :evil:

*I've often wondered why everything in Cinderella went back to normal after midnight except for the glass slippers.

*I've also wondered why the psychedelic dream sequence in Dumbo came about. Do animals get acid-trips from champagne or something?

*The Beast: would the people in the village realise some bear cum hog thingy is ruling them?

*Snow White's Queen can change herself ugly, so why can't she change Snow White into a hag so that she [the queen] be the most beautiful in the land?

Not only that, but how long has the enchantment gone on? (More than a decade, I would say). That kid is probably six, judging by him losing his tooth, so he was probably born a cup. Who did she have sex with shaped like a teapot (and how)?

What do you think the spout is for? pouring liquids?

That's a very good question...something went wrong with the magic?

One thing I never get is the end of Aladdin where the Genie is in the moon laughing like a crazy person and then pops up saying "made you look." What is that? Is it supposed to be a joke? Made you look at what? Crazy Laughing Moon Genie?

I've heard people say, "made you look" before but it usually makes sense.
