How amazing would it be if they actually DID rip off Kimba completely for this movie, despite all the time YMS already spent defending Disney from this argument 😂
Fuck I could respect that. It would be taking a horrible reality and using it to create an atmosphere and tone. They're not going to do that because they only do sanitized nothings
Honestly, the whole "born without a single drop of nobility in his blood" part baffles me. If anything, it made me understand why Scar was jealous in the first place.
Isn't that also contradicted by the fucking real movie too? When Mufasa talks about the great kings in the sky? Are we supposed to believe he was outright lying to his son?
@@arnold20139exactly. In new context he's basically like loki from mcu. That dynamic works better and he straight up doesn't look like mufasa either. But disney lol
@@txwtw i dont think lin's style of writing music fits the universe of lion king Like it will just sound like a lin manuel miranda musical than of a mufasa movie
Don't tell me Mufasa knew Pumba and Timon. Not everything has to be ''connected''! I hope Timon is the one who scratched Scar just for the memes. It's Nick Fury all over again!
My best guess is that it's just a joke about Timon saying how he was the one who fought Scar and saved the Pride Lands, just to inflate his ego. Disney wouldn't be this stupid to use the "It's all connected" trope on The Lion King of all things, right? *_RIGHT??_*
I made a comment in that trailer talking about how in The Lion King 1 1/2, Timon and Pumbaa didn’t know who Mufasa was, and it surprisingly blew up (you can see it at 11:21). But unfortunately, because UA-cam is fucking UA-cam, the trailer is labeled as “for kids” and you can’t see the comments anymore.
@@troin3925 Besides, the ”interconnectedness” that is seen in The Lion King 1 1/2 is mostly done for laughs and isn’t to be taken as 100% canon. In either case it makes sense for Timon and Pumbaa not to be caught up with lion politics, since they live far away from Pride Rock, their philosophy hinges on avoiding needless worry, and they don’t believe ”a bunch of royal dead guys” are watching them.
Ugh, I hate how clean everything looks. They're trying to be photorealistic but because of how clean and smooth everything is, it just makes everything look synthetic and fake. It looks like one long pre-rendered cut scene from a video game.
If anything that big ol' carousel coulda been what happened in I Just Can't Wait to be King instead of just running through the waterhole lol it's close enough to what the original version was
That slow mo shot of a meerkat leaping off a warthog looking like it's going to punch a lion like some Marvel Universe action scene... if one were to make a parody trailer of what a Lion King prequel / sequel would look like, that's exactly the kind of shot that would be in it.

i wonder if he is gonna review it, i think he said something about it during the editing highlights or the review itself, but i forgot what he actually said on it
I'm gonna predict it now. The white lion is gonna be named Kimba or at the very least an in your face homage to Kimba. He's gonna be a mentor character that has a strong influence on Mufasa's life, will probably die and then Mufasa is like "Noooooo I will name my son after you but not really because you were such an inspiration!"
I feel like the white lions are actually gonna be an homage to Kimba, just so Disney can act like "Oh yes, we love Kimba, it was such an inspiration to the lion king." Even tho it really wasn't and Disney doesn't care, they just don't want to get any negative press from the Kimba crowd
I think the fur looks so fake _mostly_ because they all look like they've just barely finished drying after some mad shampooing. It's WAY too clean to look remotely realistic more than it has any _actual_ rendering artifacts.
"Just release in 4K! You're supposed to be a tech demo! I guess the animation isn't finished.." Well, unfinished animation didn't stop the first movie from releasing.

@@Phantomphan613 lets face it, Favreau was just a name to stick in the director slot. the director's actual input in how these remakes turn out is practically negligible. Lion King and Jungle Book don't feel like Favreau movies. Cinderella doesn't feel like a Branagh movie, Mulan doesn't feel like a Niki Caro movie and Aladdin doesn't have like... 0.0000001% Guy Ritchie DNA in it.
So wait, Jon said that Monkeys do not usually carry sticks in real life like how Rafiki does, so why would you have what I think is Rafiki in the opening shot of the Trailer holding a stick? Like I know he gets his stick later in the 2019 film, but none of this makes any sense.
I love how I can’t tell any of the lions apart, it really helps me connect with the story to not know the difference between Mufasa and Scar. If only there was a way to bring a single drop of creativity into the mix, but alas it’s a live action movie so the lions’ appearances can’t be changed at all
Can't wait for the scene where Mufasa and the rest of the animals somehow build pride rock as a symbol of their unity or whatever, instead of it being a naturally formed structure that the animals reside in
@@burtmacklin1880 It's not for the benefit of people with 4K resolutions. There actually is a very noticeable boost in quality if you watch a video in 4K even on a 1080p monitor. I was blown away when I screenshotted videos in both resolutions and compared them and saw a difference on a 1080p monitor.
So... what, Scar gets his scars from Timon, and the reason why Timon and Pumbaa don't like carnivores isn't for like, the food chain reason, it's because they had some kinda fight with the lions?
"Introducing Blue Ivy Carter" you gotta love that blatant nepotism. Also sad to hear about the health issues Adam is suffering with. I hope he can get things sorted out and be able to find a much more comfortable way to work.
It sounds like they're retconning the absolute hell out of the Lion King lore. Scar and Mufasa are going to be adopted brothers cause Mufasa will be an orphan, and Scar will already be in line for the throne and I guess be replaced by Mufasa? Very weird.
Adam how am I supposed to know its snow the lions are walking on if no character wiped it with their paw, put it in their mouth and said "Snow."? Youre assuming a lot about this movie right off the bat here.
I ONE BILLION PERCENT guarantee that scene with Timon and Scar at 8:00 will be the scene where Scar gets his scar. YOU KNOW that I'm right. It's the most 202X Disney thing ever.
You can't rush art. Or life. Something Disney no longer respects as common sense, and thus we have this trailer. I'll be back in 3-5 years when the part 2 is released.
Ever since getting on ADHD meds I finally had the ability to work on long term projects. They're nothing too ambitious and it's stuff I know I can finish however, there is no worse feeling, no feeling more demoralizing than having to put a project on hiatus because of life being too much especially when it comes to health issues. And every now and then I'll get DMs from random people on reddit asking if the project is out yet or if they can see a demo and it just breaks my heart because it's something I'm passionate about that I know I can do but my body and life situation is holding me back. I wish Adam all the best and I hope they get through all the chaos and return to a stage where they can do what they love. Not just with big work projects but also with music and anything done in their free time. I don't know what it's like to have my work be viewed by millions and I don't know what it's like to have people's income depend on it. That must add so much more pressure and I just want to offer my sympathy and moral support.
I cannot stand the direction Disney has gone. They took EVERYTHING that made Disney successful and loved and THREW IT OUT THE WINDOW! Why do they obsess over trying to make everything Realistic yet it makes everything AWFUL! I can't stand it. Bring me back to the 90's.
Why? Nostalgia and live action. Easy peasy money. But this one lacks that comparison value to the original, so it won’t make as much cash. Might still make money though, animal movies have universal appeal world wide.
@@JohnDoe-uf3lj"easy peasy money" all for what? Some worthless money?, money has absolutely no worth if its earned through a bad way, quality > money,
Judging from the trailer, it seems mufasa will be placed in many life threatening situations which is an interesting choice considering we know for certain that he will survive each one - bravo disney
They are making a “LiVe AcTiOn” origin story around Mufasa? My god they really have no fucking ideas do they? Prediction: Their mother will tell Scar “you’ll be a better king” or something on her death bed & he’ll resent/blame Mufasa for her death after she gets stampeded by elephants or something.
If you read the trailer’s description on UA-cam, it claims that Scar was originally the intended heir, and his family took an orphaned Mufasa in. The trailer itself claims Mufasa doesn’t actually have noble blood in him. Needless to say, that’s a BIG retcon to TLK lore.
@@BrandonPilcher then Scar is completely justified! Why do they keep justifying the villains 😂 It’s not making them nuance when you give them an excuse
I never saw the trailer, so I legitimately thought the Lin-Manuel Miranda was a Hamilton joke from Jack. Good Lord, they just hire people solely because they're popular.
Nah they hire lin because he's the ONLY songwriter who will work for them. They can offer money but that's not enough if they're not even gonna let the writers write.
@@ursidae97 they actively work with people like the Lopez's, Alan menken, add more controversy Julia Michaels and Ben Rice. Disney keeps a rotation of songwriters but typically rely on the same groups of people
Paperwill just posted a 6 hour long video on Korean Propoganda after working on it for 11 months, and the comments were all just happy with his piece. I see the Lion King video going over in a similar way, especially since you are so passionate about the subject. And even if it ends up hella long, i will watch the whole thing twice
The major studio trailer videos aren't in 4k because they haven't finished the final renders on the CGI (which there is always a ton of on major studio releases), so they are hiding that lack of detail with a lower resolution.
There's a good reason you feel this way. The 3D modeling engine the film utilizes is based on Unity, which is primarily used as video game design software.
I've heard Beyonce's daughter is voicing Kiara, Simba's daughter from The Lion King: Simba's Prime. Are they making a sequel or a prequel? Is there going to be a scene where Mufasa is looking down on everybody that's alive and they say a couple lines?
I looked it up and apparently it’s going to be both. Rafiki is going to be telling Kiara the story of how Mufasa rose to power, with witty commentary by Timon and Pumba, and that’s the framing device. So like a bad version of Lion King 1&1/2
I know a lot of people say "dude get that bag" but I stopped watching Dr. MIke and that famous news story guy whos name i cant remember because they got sponsors from Better Help and when it was revealed that better help was, uh, not great with personal info, they were like "yeah fuck you." If Adum wants to take AG-1 sponsorships and pretend that he's being held at gunpoint like Some More News, sure, whatever. Just don't lie to my face or give zero shits about my medical info.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN WITHOUT A DROP OF NOBILITY? He descends from a line of kings. You know, the kings of the past in the sky that look over the members of the ROYAL FAMILY? WHY, DISNEY? WHY? What is the purpose of this retcon? It's "woke"? I hate the way that word is used with all the fibers of my being, BUT it does read like an attempt to "woke-ify" Mufasa. If Musasa isn't descended from a dynastic line of kings, what does it change? Does it make him more good-er? He's so much better-er because he's not from a royal family see??!!!!????!!!?.??!!!???! He's morally betterrrte, he's not like the Winsdor or whatever the fuck HE'S STILL A KING THAT WAS CHOSEN BY WHAT THE FUCKING GODS IT SEEMS I DUNNO WHAT ARE YOU DOING WHAT IS THIS WHY IS THIS HOW IS THIS
alternatively: they did it because they're lazy and having a character fight to be king is an easy way to create a story with zero effort. not everything is an attempt to "woke-ify" shit, the assholes at Disney are just lazy, hence every attempt they make to "woke-ify" something is terrible instead of actually thought out. If you can't immediately tell something is Disney faking being "woke" with 100% certainty then chances are they're just being lazy some other way.
I guess it's not so much of a ''woke-ification'' but an actual attempt to give it some kind or development arch to Mufasa instead of ''yeah he was always meant to be king and that's it'' but more of a ''yes he was the undesired underdog and you will see how he overcame everything and transformed into king that you love''. Not that it makes it less of a senseless retcon, they just didn't think it through I guess.
It’s 100% to affirm that Mufasa would be nothing with the matriarchal lionesses making him into what he was, and not any patriarchal-related lineage (aka, a KINGLY dynasty)
I can’t believe they opened the trailer with Scorcher VI: Global Meltdown Been waiting for this for the past few days, so fucking hyped to see Adam tear this apart
I was working at the cinema when The Lion King was premiering and parents were often asking me if I recommend this movie. I always answered "Do you want to hear official answer or my personal one?"
You get the impression in the first movie that their society has stood the test of time for centuries, and now this one seems to say that everything is only being formed once Mufasa came around?
"Born without a single drop of nobility in his blood." Wasn't there a line from the movie about Mufasa being a prince who got in trouble allot as a kid?
Yeah after learning about the actual process that is required for creating pieces of media, I really don’t feel right demanding that creators rush their art, cuz creativity is a long process, and everyone’s dealing with crap. Adum’s managing a lot, and GRRM is trying to find the best way to right out a logical continuation of a massively complex story, if it’s rushed, it’s gonna turn out bad.
In 2013, when the royal lineage of the Pridelands was called into question... the savannah called on the one lion who could make a difference. When it happened again, the world called on him once more. And no one saw it coming... three more times! Now... the one lion who made a difference five times before, is about to make a difference again. Only this time, it's different... 0:40 "Who left the fridge open?" The Lion King 6: Mufasa. Here we go again. Again.
i feel like theyve tried to add more faciel expressions to the characters but that just shows how stupid the idea of making them look realistic is because the look really uncanny with any amount of facial expression
I liked that the animals are a little more expressive… but that’s about it. I hope Barry Jenkins will elevate it, but he’s not even writing it this time, so that’s not a great sign.

@@Phantomphan613
lets face it, Favreau was just a name to stick in the director slot. the director's actual input in how these remakes turn out is practically negligible.
Lion King and Jungle Book don't feel like Favreau movies.
Cinderella doesn't feel like a Branagh movie,
Mulan doesn't feel like a Niki Caro movie
and Aladdin doesn't have like... 0.0000001% Guy Ritchie DNA in it.

This feels more like the 0/10 2019 is -1/10

So wait, Jon said that Monkeys do not usually carry sticks in real life like how Rafiki does, so why would you have what I think is Rafiki in the opening shot of the Trailer holding a stick?
Like I know he gets his stick later in the 2019 film, but none of this makes any sense.
Because it’s like his lightsaber
To be fair, Jon Favreau isn't directing this film. Barry Jenkins is. So, I guess Barry tossed Jon's logic out the window with this one.
Maybe it's a fight scene. He's beating the absolute snot out of baby Mufasa for some reason.
JOOOONNN!!!
@@hubertcumberdale6221 He's trying to prevent this movie by taking out the source
I love how I can’t tell any of the lions apart, it really helps me connect with the story to not know the difference between Mufasa and Scar. If only there was a way to bring a single drop of creativity into the mix, but alas it’s a live action movie so the lions’ appearances can’t be changed at all
There was no Pride Rock in this trailer 0/10
Dude wheres my pride rock?
There was no pride in this film, -10000/10
Dude, no Pride Rock.
Can't wait for the scene where Mufasa and the rest of the animals somehow build pride rock as a symbol of their unity or whatever, instead of it being a naturally formed structure that the animals reside in

I was blown away when I screenshotted videos in both resolutions and compared them and saw a difference on a 1080p monitor.
When adam is higher resolution than the trailer hes watching lmao
So... what, Scar gets his scars from Timon, and the reason why Timon and Pumbaa don't like carnivores isn't for like, the food chain reason, it's because they had some kinda fight with the lions?
"Introducing Blue Ivy Carter" you gotta love that blatant nepotism.
Also sad to hear about the health issues Adam is suffering with. I hope he can get things sorted out and be able to find a much more comfortable way to work.
It sounds like they're retconning the absolute hell out of the Lion King lore. Scar and Mufasa are going to be adopted brothers cause Mufasa will be an orphan, and Scar will already be in line for the throne and I guess be replaced by Mufasa? Very weird.
New low for disney: Both an unnecessary prequel AND "live action" in one.
Adam how am I supposed to know its snow the lions are walking on if no character wiped it with their paw, put it in their mouth and said "Snow."? Youre assuming a lot about this movie right off the bat here.
I ONE BILLION PERCENT guarantee that scene with Timon and Scar at 8:00 will be the scene where Scar gets his scar. YOU KNOW that I'm right. It's the most 202X Disney thing ever.
Naw, it'll be a "And then we fought and killed Scar and were big heroes!!", and Simba will smack them down saying that's not how it happened.

You can't rush art. Or life.
Something Disney no longer respects as common sense, and thus we have this trailer.
I'll be back in 3-5 years when the part 2 is released.
Ever since getting on ADHD meds I finally had the ability to work on long term projects. They're nothing too ambitious and it's stuff I know I can finish however, there is no worse feeling, no feeling more demoralizing than having to put a project on hiatus because of life being too much especially when it comes to health issues. And every now and then I'll get DMs from random people on reddit asking if the project is out yet or if they can see a demo and it just breaks my heart because it's something I'm passionate about that I know I can do but my body and life situation is holding me back. I wish Adam all the best and I hope they get through all the chaos and return to a stage where they can do what they love. Not just with big work projects but also with music and anything done in their free time. I don't know what it's like to have my work be viewed by millions and I don't know what it's like to have people's income depend on it. That must add so much more pressure and I just want to offer my sympathy and moral support.
Is that Timon and Pumbaa??? Why the fuck would they be in it?
I cannot stand the direction Disney has gone. They took EVERYTHING that made Disney successful and loved and THREW IT OUT THE WINDOW! Why do they obsess over trying to make everything Realistic yet it makes everything AWFUL! I can't stand it. Bring me back to the 90's.
It pains me the "live action" Lion King made over a billion dollars. Just why? Hopefully this one flops.
Why? Nostalgia and live action. Easy peasy money. But this one lacks that comparison value to the original, so it won’t make as much cash.
Might still make money though, animal movies have universal appeal world wide.

Judging from the trailer, it seems mufasa will be placed in many life threatening situations which is an interesting choice considering we know for certain that he will survive each one - bravo disney
I THOUGHT IT WAS A JACKSFILMS MEME HOLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY LMFAO
They are making a “LiVe AcTiOn” origin story around Mufasa?
My god they really have no fucking ideas do they?
Prediction: Their mother will tell Scar “you’ll be a better king” or something on her death bed & he’ll resent/blame Mufasa for her death after she gets stampeded by elephants or something.
If you read the trailer’s description on UA-cam, it claims that Scar was originally the intended heir, and his family took an orphaned Mufasa in. The trailer itself claims Mufasa doesn’t actually have noble blood in him. Needless to say, that’s a BIG retcon to TLK lore.
@@BrandonPilcher then Scar is completely justified! Why do they keep justifying the villains 😂
It’s not making them nuance when you give them an excuse
@@Fredric_CedrichScar Joker movie
This prequel is not beating the kimba allegations.
I never saw the trailer, so I legitimately thought the Lin-Manuel Miranda was a Hamilton joke from Jack. Good Lord, they just hire people solely because they're popular.
He's the biggest Broadway guy working right now.
Hamilton in many ways is what started Hollywood's new obsession with trying to dish out musicals
Nah they hire lin because he's the ONLY songwriter who will work for them. They can offer money but that's not enough if they're not even gonna let the writers write.

Paperwill just posted a 6 hour long video on Korean Propoganda after working on it for 11 months, and the comments were all just happy with his piece. I see the Lion King video going over in a similar way, especially since you are so passionate about the subject. And even if it ends up hella long, i will watch the whole thing twice
Hell yeah, Paperwill!
The major studio trailer videos aren't in 4k because they haven't finished the final renders on the CGI (which there is always a ton of on major studio releases), so they are hiding that lack of detail with a lower resolution.
It looks ugly now lol, let alone in 4K
We wont see jon hit the drum like pre schooler :(
Maybe we will see Barry playing shitty flute
i'm genuinely astonished at how ugly this movie is. modern video game cutscenes look better than it.
Is it bad that I thought it looked like a modern video game cutscene…?
There's a good reason you feel this way. The 3D modeling engine the film utilizes is based on Unity, which is primarily used as video game design software.
Why do they say blue Ivy like she’s important she’s just her kid . Not to be mean but
Right no one’s looking at that and being like “woah blue ivy’s in this?!”. It’s more like “oh Beyoncé’s daughter”.
They overestimate how much people care about Beyonce's daughter 😂
Nepotism
I've heard Beyonce's daughter is voicing Kiara, Simba's daughter from The Lion King: Simba's Prime. Are they making a sequel or a prequel? Is there going to be a scene where Mufasa is looking down on everybody that's alive and they say a couple lines?
I looked it up and apparently it’s going to be both. Rafiki is going to be telling Kiara the story of how Mufasa rose to power, with witty commentary by Timon and Pumba, and that’s the framing device. So like a bad version of Lion King 1&1/2

I know a lot of people say "dude get that bag" but I stopped watching Dr. MIke and that famous news story guy whos name i cant remember because they got sponsors from Better Help and when it was revealed that better help was, uh, not great with personal info, they were like "yeah fuck you." If Adum wants to take AG-1 sponsorships and pretend that he's being held at gunpoint like Some More News, sure, whatever. Just don't lie to my face or give zero shits about my medical info.
i honestly kinda hope that the plot is just an actual kimba ripoff. that would be funny.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN WITHOUT A DROP OF NOBILITY?
He descends from a line of kings. You know, the kings of the past in the sky that look over the members of the ROYAL FAMILY?
WHY, DISNEY? WHY? What is the purpose of this retcon? It's "woke"? I hate the way that word is used with all the fibers of my being, BUT it does read like an attempt to "woke-ify" Mufasa. If Musasa isn't descended from a dynastic line of kings, what does it change? Does it make him more good-er? He's so much better-er because he's not from a royal family see??!!!!????!!!?.??!!!???! He's morally betterrrte, he's not like the Winsdor or whatever the fuck HE'S STILL A KING THAT WAS CHOSEN BY WHAT THE FUCKING GODS IT SEEMS I DUNNO WHAT ARE YOU DOING WHAT IS THIS WHY IS THIS HOW IS THIS
Uh............you good man?
alternatively: they did it because they're lazy and having a character fight to be king is an easy way to create a story with zero effort. not everything is an attempt to "woke-ify" shit, the assholes at Disney are just lazy, hence every attempt they make to "woke-ify" something is terrible instead of actually thought out. If you can't immediately tell something is Disney faking being "woke" with 100% certainty then chances are they're just being lazy some other way.
@@waterloggeddoggo Yes.
No.
I guess it's not so much of a ''woke-ification'' but an actual attempt to give it some kind or development arch to Mufasa instead of ''yeah he was always meant to be king and that's it'' but more of a ''yes he was the undesired underdog and you will see how he overcame everything and transformed into king that you love''. Not that it makes it less of a senseless retcon, they just didn't think it through I guess.
It’s 100% to affirm that Mufasa would be nothing with the matriarchal lionesses making him into what he was, and not any patriarchal-related lineage (aka, a KINGLY dynasty)
I can’t believe they opened the trailer with Scorcher VI: Global Meltdown
Been waiting for this for the past few days, so fucking hyped to see Adam tear this apart
the lin manuel miranda reveal gave me whiplash
When those people said “this is live action” I kinda wish Disney had done a live action version but made it like broadway. That would’ve been cool
I was working at the cinema when The Lion King was premiering and parents were often asking me if I recommend this movie. I always answered "Do you want to hear official answer or my personal one?"
Adum is my favorite UA-camr. He's honest and cares about his videos. Take your time Adum, can't rush art.
56:50 You caring is NOT your problem. It's what makes you you, and it's what makes you awesome.
no WAY i clicked on a YMS video for the first time in a year and its *still* about the trailer not being in 4k
I was thinking the same thing
You get the impression in the first movie that their society has stood the test of time for centuries, and now this one seems to say that everything is only being formed once Mufasa came around?
"Born without a single drop of nobility in his blood." Wasn't there a line from the movie about Mufasa being a prince who got in trouble allot as a kid?
No. Adum even brings up the actual quote in the video.
Buying tickets to the first movie is my greatest sin. And I would love to apologize.
Why did people paid a billion dollars to see 2019 Lion King in theaters?
No 4K makes it more disgusting.
Seeing this movie ever? County out
Is that Timon and Pumba? ... how? They had a previous fight with Scar and didn't remember when they did the second time?
Finally, an adaptation of the famous anime Kimba: Origins
Yeah after learning about the actual process that is required for creating pieces of media, I really don’t feel right demanding that creators rush their art, cuz creativity is a long process, and everyone’s dealing with crap. Adum’s managing a lot, and GRRM is trying to find the best way to right out a logical continuation of a massively complex story, if it’s rushed, it’s gonna turn out bad.
In 2013, when the royal lineage of the Pridelands was called into question... the savannah called on the one lion who could make a difference.
When it happened again, the world called on him once more.
And no one saw it coming... three more times!
Now... the one lion who made a difference five times before, is about to make a difference again. Only this time, it's different...

i feel like theyve tried to add more faciel expressions to the characters but that just shows how stupid the idea of making them look realistic is because the look really uncanny with any amount of facial expression
Rooting for your physical recovery stuff. That garbage sucks
I liked that the animals are a little more expressive… but that’s about it. I hope Barry Jenkins will elevate it, but he’s not even writing it this time, so that’s not a great sign.
