The Lion King (Laserdisc)

Edit
Comments Share

I've heard a lot about the laserdisc print of The Lion King. In fact, the one that I know most about is the Deluxe CAV edition. Unlike the CLV edition, this is more expensive and much different. You see, it's a boxset of 4 discs (which is a LOT). Discs 1 and 2 contains the film, which is split into four parts. Disc 3 contains the documentary "The Making of The Lion King", with Side B containing supplemental material. Disc 4 contains more of that, just like the bonus material seen on DVDs, for a total of 75 chapters in all.

There are four discs. Discs 1 and 2 contain the entire film split into four parts (1-27), Disc 3 contains The Making of The Lion King on Side A (28-35), as well as storyboards and character designs on Side B (36-58), and Disc 4 contains deleted scenes from the film on Side A (59-70) and all the rest on Side B (71-75).

Probably the best (and most offending) scene I've ever viewed on this laserdisc is "The Fight" scene (Chapter 69). Luckily, it's in storyboard format. In this scene, just after Scar says "Good night, Sweet Prince" to Simba, he ends up getting flipped by him, and now clings on the edge of Pride Rock. Scar pleads Simba to help him, and confesses that Simba is no murderer, and that he deserves to be king. Then comes the scary part. Scar throws Simba off with one paw, and he falls off the edge of Pride Rock. Simba escapes, while the fire rises up to the top where Scar is. He's still standing there, cackling as he doesn't watch getting engulfed by flames. Soon, his cackling goes away, and rain starts to fall. Simba finds a lioness laying on the ground, just like the scene in the final film after Scar knocks Sarabi down after telling her that he's ten times better than Mufasa.

"The Making of The Lion King" also appears on the Exclusive Deluxe Video Edition, which won't be easy to find at all.
