The Lion King Walt Disney Signature Collection

SCORE: 82

I am very thankful Disney sent Family Friendly Gaming a reviewable copy of The Lion King Walt Disney Signature Collection on Blu-ray + DVD + Digital. I was a bit confused by the name at first. Why? The bottom of the case has: "The Circle of Life Edition," on it. So initially I thought this was the circle of life edition. When I did some research I found it actually referred to as the Walt Disney Signature Collection.

I am very surprised that Family Friendly Gaming has not sounded off on this movie before. Better late than never. Besides haste leads to waste. So no need to rush into things. The art work and animation in The Lion King Walt Disney Signature Collection is stellar. There is some action adventure animal violence in The Lion King Walt Disney Signature Collection.

The big lesson in The Lion King Walt Disney Signature Collection is the circle of life. If you are not familiar with it, then let me explain. The lions eat the antelope, and when the lions die they go into the ground and feed the grass. The grass feeds the antelope. See how it all circles around? I know that is a simplistic way of explaining it. I am just using what the movie gave me.

The Lion King Walt Disney Signature Collection has well known songs. In fact the movie can be played normally or in the sing along edition. There is a witch doctor like baboon in The Lion King Walt Disney Signature Collection. There is also a short scene where the dead father appears to his son. The son disobeys his father and that leads to problems later down the road. Scar manipulates Simba to take the throne from him.

There is plenty of humor in this movie with an African feel, and some words. I am not sure what language exactly those words are from. Tons of bonus content can be found on The Lion King Walt Disney Signature Collection. There is recording sessions, inside the story room, visualizing a villain, songs, bloopers, previews, and more. The Lion King Walt Disney Signature Collection takes eighty-eight minutes to watch. Then there are three hours of extras.

I enjoyed watching The Lion King Walt Disney Signature Collection on Blu-ray, and DVD. I did not watch The Lion King Walt Disney Signature Collection in the digital format. Scar is an excellent villain in The Lion King Walt Disney Signature Collection. The peril that surrounds him is apparent. It is nice to know this franchise continues on to this day. I am shocked at how old The Lion King is. It felt like just yesterday it was released. That just yesterday was 1994. Digitally remastering worked really well on this movie.
