I saw the movie myself. It truly does save the integrity of Disney definitely. Especially the fact that it has no woke culture involved in it. Just good clean traditionally animated fun.
Inside out does have some but it’s not really noticeable unless you really look for it. It makes it look like the real world which is what I’ve wanted and I think everyone else does to. Don’t let the political agenda ruin the story. Story first then politics
I was 8 when The Lion King came out. Even then, I thought it was great, but not THAT great (“Aladdin” always did it for me more). As an adult, I now realize why: Simba was a wack protagonist.
As a kid, he was a spoiled, arrogant, obnoxious, privileged little brat, running around bragging about how he couldn’t wait to be king so he could do whatever he wanted and boss everyone else around. As an adult, he had a bland personality at best. Across the board, he had no agency or independence of thought whatsoever. Every single move Simba made in that movie, he had to be either manipulated, tricked, or shamed into making. Scar manipulated him into visiting the elephant graveyard; Scar took him to the gorge to be in the path of the wildebeest stampede; Scar tricked him into going into exile from the Pride lands. Then 3 different characters—Nala, Rafiki, and Mufasa’s ghost—had to shame him into going back to Pride Rock. He doesn’t even really defeat Scar in the end; the hyenas do. In short, Simba sucked.
I saw it in the theaters when I was 17 and am now 47 and still remains o be my all time favorite movie. I have many collectibles that I started acquiring in 1994 when it first came out. I will always consider to cherish this movie as I share with my 4 year old grand daughter the wonders of pride rock. I will admit I do have her hooked lol

He definitely defeated Scar at the end.
