The long awaited Lion King remake is out, and I have a lot of thoughts. The Lion King has been my favourite movie since birth. The original is flawless. However, it was only fair to give the Lion King remake a chance. I’m a bit iffy about remakes in general, I would much rather see… Continue reading What I Thought of The Lion King Remake
