To be fair, they weren't wrong

yeah he could've just stayed there and enjoy the chill way life there BUT he chose to help the lion clan that was under the dictator and the hyenas, so he chose to save his people. Like something in the bible probably

[–] Ross_audio@lemmy.world 70 points 7 months ago (3 children)

It's based on Hamlet. So Shakespeare, not the bible.

[–] 0x0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 98 points 7 months ago (4 children)

Shakespeare wasn't one person, he was actually a collection of Bibles writing under a pseudonym

Biblically accurate Shakespeare can't hurt you.

"I'd like a cup of mead."

"Are you 21?"

"I'm 21... Bibles."

"And before they could nail him to the cross, Jesus immediately vanished before them. All who saw this were amazed. Then a voice from the heavens, sounding as though it were the son of God spoke saying, 'The better part of valour is discretion.'"--The Gospel According to Sir John Falstaff

Shakespeare wasn’t one person, he was actually a collection of ~~Bibles~~ monkeys with typewriters writing under a pseudonym

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 41 points 7 months ago (1 children)

It's based on Kimba the White Lion, which is based on Hamlet, which is based on an episode of The Office (US).

[–] Speculater@lemmy.world 10 points 7 months ago (1 children)

And that episode got its source material from Game of Thrones.

That kolanak guy is going to be sad when he sees your username.

We've crossed paths for months, he taught me how to do it, lol.

Sounds like a fun story

I'm waiting for The Lion King based on Oedipus.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

That would definitely require a hakuna matata attitude after Simba gouged his eyes out.

yeah he could've just stayed there and enjoy the chill way life there BUT...

He wanted that sweet Nalaussy

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 3 points 7 months ago
