POTATO ON THE GO (Movie):
The first time I saw Disney's THE LION KING was in 1994. I watched it together with my father and mom. It was actually a treat from my father as I made it to the Dean's List then during my first semester as a freshman. 'But I didn't know it will be the last movie I'll watch in theater together with my dad. And with that, THE LION KING is memorable to me not only with its enriching lessons in life and fascinating animation, music and characters, but its sentimental value to our lives.
THE LION KING is essentially a love story between a father and son. Movie Producer Don Hahn said, “It’s about that moment in life when you realize that your father is going to pass on to you his wisdom and knowledge. The Circle of Life. Someday we all become adults. The baton will be passed on to us and we’re going to have to grow up.”
An original story, breathtaking animation, beloved characters and award-winning music set the stage for “The Lion King,” a Disney classic that follows the adventures of Simba, the feisty lion cub who “just can’t wait to be king.” But his envious Uncle Scar has plans for his own ascent to the throne, and he forces Simba’s exile from the kingdom. Alone and adrift, Simba soon joins the escapades of a hilarious meerkat named Timon and his warmhearted warthog pal, Pumbaa.
