I can't download it... it asks for authorization (log in and password)! Do you know what can I do?

And I'm afraid TLK will really be 1.85:1... do you remember the DVD was announced as 1.66:1 but it ended up being 1.85:1?

:? Huh?

Why don't you just wait for the DVD? Did everyone watch out of anticipation, or curiosity? I, personally, am waiting, because you don't get the same experience watching on a computure...

Well, from what you all've been saying it doesn't seem like it will make much of a difference...

Wasn't the new song shown in I-MAX? Did anyone see the Lion King in I-MAX?

No, it wasn't! I think the scene wasn't ready when the film premiered in IMAX.

super cool... Thanks a bunch... dude!

You're welcome everyone.

This is the morning report! Not a tale I distort.

Hmm, singing Simba doesn't sound like Jason Weaver. Ok, Jason will be about 24 on July 18. Simba sounds like he's singing of key. Compare the English singing voice to the French Simba and Scott Irby-Ranniar from the Original Broadway Cast.

Zazu doesn't sound like Rowan Atkinson nor Edward Hibbert. Ick.

The Morning Report looks and sounds silly. The animation is ok. I love the bright and sharp colours though. :) Yay, no film grain!

Simba has a high pitch voice. I thought a girl was singing. lol. He's hitting some really high notes around B5, 987 Hz.

73 everyone. Err, au revoir.

I agree! Someone suggested Shadowland from the Musical. Jeromy Irons, Moira Kelly and Matthew Broderick are awsome!

Big Nala or little nala? What's Shadowland? What's the song about where are they? I'm guessing they're grown up?

All this revisionist filmmaking sucks. I see no reason for any of them.
Most of my Blu-ray collection some of my UK discs aren't on their database

Yeah, but look what happened to Beauty and the Beast: the Human Again sequence is fine in the musical and on its own, but inserted into the movie, it sucks! Now they've ruined a great movie!

Well, yes. But the company needs more special features than original color disc art! :lol:

I agree, but I would have rather seen "Human Again" as a bonus feature (not included in the film), much like "Music in Your Soup" on the Snow White DVD. I'm sure no one would ever dream of adding the soup sequence to Snow White.

I don't see how it could have "not been ready" for IMAX if they were planning the IMAX release for so many months in advance. There's so little action in this sequence that it seems like it could have been completed in a short amount of time, utilizing backgrounds and details already in place.

What this sequence lacks that the rest of the Lion King has, I think, is a point.

I think the Morning Report was made for the kids. The sequence is short: it's about a minute and a half. Writing and scoring the music would've taken about a couple of montsh. The lyrics were already written. Hmm.

I think, if you don't want to see it, all you have to do is watch the OTR version, I actually thought Human Again fit in perfectly...

Also maybe they didn't add the song in I-MaX ,MR, because they knew many of the adult viewers wouldn't like it.

It's a song that Adult Nala sings in the Musical. Nala is singing about Scar's destructive rule in the Pride Lands.


The resolution of the AVI is 544 x 320 pixels. This comes to 16:9 and an aspect ratio of 1.7. ( 544 / 320 = 1.7 ) :?
