[quote="Si Targaryen"]I don't know yet how I feel about this, one of my favourite movies being remade. I hope it's good though.
My concern with these Disney remakes, is that new generations of kids may not be interested in watching the "old-fashioned" original movies, whiich would be a shame.[/quote]
I don't know, I've always wanted to watch the original material on any film / book / game etc I've seen that's based on or a direct reimagining of something else.
I could imagine kids seeing this film and then they go to school and their friends are like "Did you know The Lion King was actually a cartoon first?" and the other kid is like "No way?!"
If nothing else, this will get people talking about Lion King again
Edit: but they must redo the music and get as many of the original composers back as possible or else this film can go away forever.
