NNNNNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SSSSSSSSSIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIBBBBBBBBBBEEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAA GET THE HELL UP FOR SCHOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!! Thats what i say to my brothers at the beginning of a school day
One of the single-most powerful pieces of animation ever created. The perfect blend of animation, art direction, perspective and the sheer magic of the music to top it all off. Breathtaking every time!
When I was a kid, I used to cry when Mufasa died during the movie. Then again... after 1 and a half decade I don't cry anymore.. Because I know this is how we should live. This is the circle of life........ I'm 24 years old at the moment and this movie still gives me goosebumps...
best disney movie ever along with probablly beauty and the beast cinderella finding nemo snow white but definitely this first best intro to any movie in history
Easily one of the best openings in a movie ever. And that's not only compared to other children's movies, but compared to anything in the whole industry.
POST THIS ON EVERY YOUTUBE VIDEO OF THE LION KING AND CLICK LIKE IF YOU THINK THIS IS ONE OF THE GREATEST MASTER PIECE OF WALT DISNEY MOVIES!!!! :D ;D
Why did Disney have to go down the drain with their new movies?
In this, the animals were realistic, not JUST cool looking and insaney agile or strong. They moved realistically and acted realistically aside from speaking English. THIS MOVIE IS EPIC!!! (sparta kick)
Amazing....just amazing....it is a fantastic movie...every time I watch I feel young and you think you do not have to worry about anything except the end of the movie
Nants ingonyama bagithi Baba [Here comes a lion, Father] Sithi uhm ingonyama [Oh yes, it's a lion] Nants ingonyama bagithi baba Sithi uhhmm ingonyama Ingonyama Siyo Nqoba [We're going to conquer] Ingonyama Ingonyama nengw' enamabala [A lion and a leopard come to this open place] [Chant repeats] this pleases me greatly!
it's one of the few melodies that will always bring tears of joy to my eyes. i've been to kenya as a kid, to the masai-mara, and trust me: the scenery, the wildlife, the pure freedom and peacefulness of the place, it really is that beautiful!
@Tdot21st uh dude I'm a fellow American, but outside of Disney being an american company, we didn't have much with this, the songs are either traditional African or made by a British man
just imagine when this movie came out and people were sittin in the theater and little did they know that they were just about to watch the best disney cartoon ever made
One of the best sequences in animation history. However I disagree that Disney make 'junk' today. The Princess And The Frog and Tangled show the magic is still there - let's hope we are entering another golden age for Disney animation.
Wonderfull, just wonderfull. This is one of the few movies I know who is absolutely perfect. Not a single flaw. Anyone else who agree with me that this is Disney's most exelent movie, despite they have make a lot of masterpieces?
Lion King has one of the best intros in all of the movies ever. And eventhough it has been years since this movie was released, it still never fails to send chills down my spine whenever I watch this and I just keep coming back for more.
It's strange... when ever I look back at a cartoon from my childhood, even though they may induce some very blissful nostalgia, they don't nearly have the same charm they had when I was a kid. The acting is terrible, the animation is terrible, the shows didn't just age quite well, and you get the feeling that you've outgrown it.... but not this, even with all the advances in technology lately, and the changes in directorial style, this remains one of the most awesome things I have ever seen.
simply Priceless.... thank you so much for this uploading in a true HQ quality. I miss so much this movie, I want this movie in Blue - ray for my kid, (hopefully someday) whom I show true "cartoons" old animated movies FAR MUCH better than the new ones; and whose birth teached me the meaning of Mufasa expresions in the intro: True Pride and Happiness for his Son.
tears went down my face, thanks again for the intro man!
This is awesome, I've been searching for this and you basically have the best quality and right volume and also.... the pitch of the song sounds like its supposed to unlike some of the other HQ versions. This is the best intro for a disney movie and most people dont know how much went into making it, thats what makes it a classic. Thanks for the right upload!
@exmortis Ohhh man, i seriously took a look at most if not all post for the lion king intro and some of the video qualities were either bad to horrible or the actual song was just off key... What I mean by that is, this video here, looks and sounds just like the movie where as others, it would be the same tempo but the pitch was higher. It didnt even sound like the movie version at all.... lol, madness
@Fionntan1000 *scratches head* Ok, there's been A LOT of controversy surrounding this movie but 1st off, there's around 30 writers involved, so says imdb.com so im gonna need you to specify. 2nd What does your statement/question have to do with my post about the clarity/sound quality of Christophermatar's video? And 3rd, whats with your statement, are you askin me something or making a point? Its a bit confusing.
Listen to that. The lyrics have meaning and the music is incredible, written and composed by true professionals. Unlike the shit the Disney of today does.
