That's why Lion King 1 1/2 worked for me and it's my favourite Disney Direct-to-video sequel. I loved the comparisons. I was going to make this comment about their Shakspearian influences until I saw that you beat me to it by 11 hours. :-)
Iron Man 3 was literally all flashback, judging by Tony narrating and that it’s revealed in the post credit scene that he was using Bruce like a therapist
I'm surprised you didn't mention that Simba's Pride is a reference to how some dad's will call their daughter their "pride and joy" Like, my dad doesn't, but some dads do.
I hope he does, they’re on Disney+ so it would be easy to access it. Used to spend a lot of time in the car as a kid so I’d watch it on a portable DVD player constantly
And it showed how strongly Simba associated Kovu with Scar and viewed him as a Scar 2.0, and Kovu's entire struggle was unlearning what the Outlanders taught him and seperating himself from Scar in everyone else's eyes
Also the thing about Simba not learning anything makes no sense. His issues as a ruler are not the same his father had, and his prejuice makes sense taking the first film as context.
Actually I’d say Simba did learn from Mufasa’s mistakes as seen by him being very overprotective of Kiara to try and prevent her from getting into the kind of trouble he did as a cub.
I mean, arguably he did have a part in his father’s death, so it’s kind of understandable that he doesn’t want his own daughter to end up in the same kind of catastrophic troubles.
He didn't learn because he should have known that the method of completely stopping her from doing something will make her want to do it more, thus putting her in danger.
@@coyraig8332 very true... but maybe the best method would have been to explore the bad areas with tour child. Show them how awful they are and out them off that way. Heck bring half the pride with u to prevent casualties and bobs your uncle
Fun fact: In early production, it was supposed to be a _suicide._ Kiara tries to get Zira to take her paw so she can help her, Zira looks up at her with an insane grin and whispers "No... _never..."_ and lets go of the ledge, falling to her death. Look it up, there are pencil tests of it on youtube. It's pretty dark and frightening, but I honestly think they should've kept it in. It suited her character morbidly well.

@@triasha3790 she was answering the original post's question (what about Cinderella?). Her point is that Seamus was only going to cover Disney Renaissance sequels, so he wasn't planning to review Cinderella for this series. She wasn't denying it wasn't the best.
I'm pretty sure a big reason you didn't like Lion King 2 that much was because you had high expectations from people telling you it was good so I almost don't want to say this but- Cinderella 3 is the best. Fight me.
I'm not saying that I like it like I like the orignal movie. It's more like the orignal is a hamburger while 1/2 is a Cookies and Cream bar. I like both, but I'm going to choose one over the other when I feel like eating/watching something.
Plot of Hamlet: A prince's father dies right before he's old enough to inherit the throne. His uncle inherits the throne and marries his mother. His father comes back as a ghost to tell him that he was poisoned by the uncle and that his son must kill him. The prince pretends to be going insane, so everyone justifies his actions. He hesitates on a plan to kill his uncle. He makes a play version of his father's murder to check his uncle for guilt to make sure that he surely was the murderer. He accidentally kills his girlfriend's father. His uncle sends him on a ship with a note for another king to execute him as a personal favor. The prince escapes with pirates. He returns home and learns that his girlfriend committed suicide. He tells everyone that his madness has been cured and morns his girlfriend's death. His girlfriend's brother arranges a fencing match with him. He and the uncle remove the cap from his sword and dip it in poison, so if the prince get scratched, he'll die and prepare a poisoned victory wine for the prince in case he wins the match without a scratch. The queen drinks the victory cup after seeing her son doing well. The prince, his girlfriend's brother, and his uncle all get scratched by the sword. Everyone dies and a prince from another kingdom takes over the entire kingdom.
And 1 and 1/2 is kind of Rosencratz and Gildenstern are Dead - two minor background characters of Hamlet running around behind the scenes oblivious to the main plot proceeding behind them while they break the fourth wall, but not dying because Disney. I mean it’s a bit of a stretch from the deeply philosophical Stoppard play but the resemblance is there.
Also when I was younger watching the Lion King Simba's Pride I thought the animation was so much better than it actually was XD Like I also remember the first Toy Story movie's graphics weren't actually that bad? But watching it now is just like, OOF
I keep trying to watch toy story with my kids l, because I loved them as a kid...but they are 4 and 8 and *terrified* of the movie because of the people lol
@Darth Traya Reviews ARE opinionated though? I recently rewatched Lion King 2 and while it's not *bad*, it's not good either. It's pretty cringy at parts. But it's decent in terms of Disney sequels.
I know that I'm 6 months late, but just try to use your earphones from now on (also btw it's not written in my youtube name, but my name is also Paola, soooooo hi Paola😆)
I definitely liked the "Cinderella: a twist in time" the best. It was based off of the stage production that was created for the Disney Cruise' opening season. Also, I really liked "The Rescuers Down Under", which is the sequel to "The Rescuers", but I don't think that sequel counts because it actually made it to theaters.
Me too, in fact we still have Lion 1 1/2 on DVD and occasionally watch it to this day (side note, why is Ma the only meerkat that has irises when everyone else only has pupils?)
Yes I want to see the Cinderella sequels! My favorite straight to dvd Disney sequel is Cinderella 3, you can have your own opinion on it but you have to admit it’s a fun ride
Amber Leigh Well, it is still a straight to dvd sequel let’s not get ahead of our selfs, but it is pretty good. I’m so happy that they actually gave the Prince Charming, and Cinderella personalities. And the story is really creative, I mean who had the idea to put time travel into the Cinderella canon!
@@chantald.6104 If you want to you can say the story with Anastasia finally severing ties with her mother and sister for good in Cinderella 2 after meeting the Baker is canon but it takes place after Cinderella 3 since nothing technically says it had to have happened in the "original timeline."
Mufasa didn't make really that particular mistake though. The elephant graveyard thing was Simba's own fault and the stampede was all Scar's doing and Mufasa protected him.
@@Nightman221k If Mustafa had any mistakes (and this is pushing it, I think) it was that he was too trusting. He was too trusting of Scar, who stabbed him in the back, and too trusting of Simba, who went and almost got himself killed. It'd make sense for Simba, looking back, to be a little less trusting, whether it was of the former allies of Scar, or of his own child's decision making skills.
Its because Zira killed his first child, Kopa, the baby you see at the end of The Lion King. The Zira part is all fan theory, but there was a cub named Kopa that was originally supposed to be Simba and Nala's first child. There were 6 books released that were about Kopa growing up and establishing backstory and lore for the Lion King. But they technically got retconned when Lion King 2 was released and they decided Kiara was supposed to be the baby at the end of LK1. Even though the scenes are different and the cubs look different, as well as Simba and Nala looking older in LK2.
Lion King: Hamlet Lion King 1.5: Rosencrantz & Guildenstern (honestly one of the underappreciated and better Shakespeare-related plays) Lion King 2: Romeo & Juliet (bruh Kovu is angsty and HOT...but your rating was accurate😂)
@@danyr1886 Yep In the original concept, Zira was supposed to let go of the cliff willingly, just to emotionally scar (heh) Kiara. A hint of it is still in the movie, cause when she falls into the river, she doesn't really look terrified, instead she's kinda smiling
I remember when I was in school my friends wouldn't believe me when I told them there was a Lion King 1 1/2. No one else had seen it; it was like the film where Timon and Pumba watch what they were doing offscreen during the original and then all the other Disney character silhouettes show up at the end to rewatch the movie, was a mere figment of my imagination. And I fell into the former category, when I watched it as a kid.
How do you have 169 Subs by making no videos and having your channel name be identical too a famous RUclips channel except with the added word "fan" at the end
Lion King 2 has a lot going on for it. Let me explain why it fits so well with TK1. Simba had an original son named Kopa and Zira killed Kopa which led to her and the outlanders banishment. He is protective over Kiara for this reason and doesn’t want to lose her as well. Zira was one of Scar’s most loyal followers and not only being more of like a mate figure but someone obsessed with him. Zira had two cubs Vitani and Nuka. After Scar saw how weak Nuka was and then a girl cub was born he found it upon himself to steal someone else’s cub who he felt like was strong enough to be his heir. Zira raised Kovu as her own because Kovu was the chosen one. This led to most of the events in TLK2 and how Nuka wanted his mom’s attention and hated Kovu throughout the whole movie. The end with the outlanders realizing they are one of them... it’s kind of like they are us... they are no different let’s give them a chance ...... Zira brainwashed so many followers similar to how Scar did.... and anyways THAT is why I’ll always love TLK2 because the actual TLK story does tie into everything quite well and it follows Romeo and Juliet when the first film followed Hamlet.
Man, if only they spent time explaining this during the movie. Would have been longer but I would soooooo watch a longer version. TLK2 was always my favourite song wise, TLK1 has iconic amazing songs but damn the sequel ones hit different
Kopa part is fan theory not real proves it happend. Yes there is book where is Kopa, but no proves Zira killed him. Later disney just replace Kopa with Kion who is almost same age with kiara and other cubs of lion guard serie .
I love this story but this is a fan theory, not cannon. Kopa is not a cannon Disney character, he was written into a series of kids books like 20 years but the guy who wrote the stories wasn’t writing cannon for Disney. He had permission to write the stories but he wasn’t working for Disney so all the characters he made up for his story are not official Disney characters. I still enjoy the fan stories about Kopa though, they’re very creative and fun. But just in case anyone wondered why Kopa wasn’t mentioned in the movies that’s why.
In lion king one and a half i laughed so hard when all the disney characters came because like when the lion king characters came i thought oh thats it and then mickey came and im like they are finished and then everyone else came and i was so suprised i laughed
How about after this series ends, you could do the "animated" cartoon versions of these like Tangled the Series, Hotel Transylvania the Series, The Lion Guard, Jake and the Neverland Pirates, etc.
these were my favorite Disney sequels as a kid. i own Simba's Pride on DVD bc it brings me so much nostalgic joy. the "deception....... disgrace....." song is iconic
.....Cinderella III is being held over us like a consolation prize when its actually the BEST direct to tv movie Disney has ever made. You must watch that movie.
I need more terrible Disney sequels, but the bonus disc for lion king 1 1/2 is full of games and a safari, I recommend looking at all the bonus discs for all the lion kings
when i was younger i only watched lion king 1 1/2 bc we only had the regular lion king on vhs so it has a special place in my heart and I was glad to see it ranked so high
The lion king two is my favorite movie ever, I’ve memorized all the songs, and I’ve watched it so many times. Also, when Kiara said “look at them, what differences do you see?” I believe that might be themed towards racism, I could be wrong, but that’s what I took from it.
Love Will Find a Way is the more obvious one. Upendi to me is more along the lines of Hakuna Matata, but instead of being about letting go of your responsibilities, it's about embracing the love.
My friends and I got high once and watched Lion King 3 and it actually made me cry, my best friends got it for me on blu-ray and it's still my favourite Disney sequel after LM2. I'm happy to see it up top of your list too!
Uhmm Peter Pan's sequel was the best one and everyone knows that. It was so good it got a theatrical release. And also 101 Dalmatians Patch's London Adventure is SO GOOD.....And Cindetella 3
Oof, I personally don't really like it. Please don't take any offence to this,this is just my opinion but, the guy who does the voice for the pup (can't remember his name) just sounded so old when the character is supposed to be a puppy. And I just found the main character (the pup) super annoying. Maybe its just because I didn't really grow up watching it. Idk.
For those of you who don't know, in The Lion King 1 1/2, there's also a hidden mickey game. And I would know. my siblings and I watched that until the CD wore out
I found the villains in simbas pride to be really enjoyable. They're all just so interesting and I love how their relationship to Scar was left open, we don't know who zira was to scar or why the outlanders still chose to follow him and be banished, all we know is that somehow scar had chosen kovu to act as his heir. I know the story was based around Romeo and Juliet, but zira gave me lots of Morgana le fey vibes with her raising her children as instruments in her revenge against simba.
Please continue this series!! It's really funny and fun to watch, and then go watch the Disney sequels you talked about after cause I want to be more in on the jokes and have no self control... The important part of this comment is to ask you to please keep doing these videos they are great
Omg i love your videos I also had Disney movies on VHS!! I loved the sequels as a child but I take pleasure in seeing you pick them apart it's so funny!!!!
The Lion King 1 1/2 is a masterpiece :D One boy in my primary school had the VHS and it was passed around constantly, because everyone wanted to watch it over and over again.
I think The Lion King sequels (especially The Lion King 2) are probably the best Disney straight to dvd sequels ever made. I loved them as a child and I still like watching them and getting that nostalgic feeling...

My only issue with it, is that the fairy godmother didn’t restore their memories at the end, and it bothers me still to this very day
Yessss. Way better than any of the other Cinderella films.
Tbf Simba's nightmare did have a purpose. It was to show how much he didn't trust Kovu
That's exactly what I thought!
You don’t have to be mean it’s just his opinion! And plus it was a really fun video to watch!
And it showed how strongly Simba associated Kovu with Scar and viewed him as a Scar 2.0, and Kovu's entire struggle was unlearning what the Outlanders taught him and seperating himself from Scar in everyone else's eyes

And the story is really creative, I mean who had the idea to put time travel into the Cinderella canon!
I'm just still upset that they erased anastasia's character development :'(
@@chantald.6104 If you want to you can say the story with Anastasia finally severing ties with her mother and sister for good in Cinderella 2 after meeting the Baker is canon but it takes place after Cinderella 3 since nothing technically says it had to have happened in the "original timeline."
Arguably Simba being uber over protective of Kiara was the movie's attempt at having him learn from his father's mistake
Mufasa didn't make really that particular mistake though. The elephant graveyard thing was Simba's own fault and the stampede was all Scar's doing and Mufasa protected him.
@@Nightman221k If Mustafa had any mistakes (and this is pushing it, I think) it was that he was too trusting. He was too trusting of Scar, who stabbed him in the back, and too trusting of Simba, who went and almost got himself killed.
It'd make sense for Simba, looking back, to be a little less trusting, whether it was of the former allies of Scar, or of his own child's decision making skills.
Its because Zira killed his first child, Kopa, the baby you see at the end of The Lion King.
The Zira part is all fan theory, but there was a cub named Kopa that was originally supposed to be Simba and Nala's first child. There were 6 books released that were about Kopa growing up and establishing backstory and lore for the Lion King. But they technically got retconned when Lion King 2 was released and they decided Kiara was supposed to be the baby at the end of LK1. Even though the scenes are different and the cubs look different, as well as Simba and Nala looking older in LK2.

Lion King: Hamlet

Lion King 2: Romeo & Juliet (bruh Kovu is angsty and HOT...but your rating was accurate😂)

The who- the what- the when- the where...?
@@danyr1886 Yep
In the original concept, Zira was supposed to let go of the cliff willingly, just to emotionally scar (heh) Kiara. A hint of it is still in the movie, cause when she falls into the river, she doesn't really look terrified, instead she's kinda smiling

The nightmare scene was the show that Simba had PDSD and didn’t know whether to trust Kovu

@@OsmSkylandersCheats Bahahahah

CSG no not draumatic
It’s post dramatic stress disorder
I remember when I was in school my friends wouldn't believe me when I told them there was a Lion King 1 1/2. No one else had seen it; it was like the film where Timon and Pumba watch what they were doing offscreen during the original and then all the other Disney character silhouettes show up at the end to rewatch the movie, was a mere figment of my imagination.
And I fell into the former category, when I watched it as a kid.
I completely agree, the lion king 1 1/2 is sooo good! When I was younger I actually liked it more than the original 😅
If you didnt have a crush on Kovu when you were younger, what planet were you living on?
Planet lesbian
I had a crush on go Diego go when I was 5 :)

Okay these answers are actually fantastic! Lmao thank you for these 😂🤣

Same
Yes 100% yes
I laught so hard everytime i watch it 😂😂😂
The whole movie is a *MEME*

Yes I can say it
Yes lion king two is one of my favourite move
I thought I was the only one who enjoyed lion king 1 1/2 everyone I’ve told said it was stupid 🤷♀️
Amaris Vale I really loved it as a kid
You’re not alone on that one
I loved it too
I loved it and still do
I love it ❤️💙❤️💙❤️
I love lion king and lion king 2 and the lion guard. I love lions. Lions over all.
2:50 the way he said “Wakanda Forever I guess.” Killed me and my corpse is writing this comment
How do you have 169 Subs by making no videos and having your channel name be identical too a famous RUclips channel except with the added word "fan" at the end
Lion King 2 has a lot going on for it. Let me explain why it fits so well with TK1. Simba had an original son named Kopa and Zira killed Kopa which led to her and the outlanders banishment. He is protective over Kiara for this reason and doesn’t want to lose her as well. Zira was one of Scar’s most loyal followers and not only being more of like a mate figure but someone obsessed with him. Zira had two cubs Vitani and Nuka. After Scar saw how weak Nuka was and then a girl cub was born he found it upon himself to steal someone else’s cub who he felt like was strong enough to be his heir. Zira raised Kovu as her own because Kovu was the chosen one. This led to most of the events in TLK2 and how Nuka wanted his mom’s attention and hated Kovu throughout the whole movie. The end with the outlanders realizing they are one of them... it’s kind of like they are us... they are no different let’s give them a chance ...... Zira brainwashed so many followers similar to how Scar did.... and anyways THAT is why I’ll always love TLK2 because the actual TLK story does tie into everything quite well and it follows Romeo and Juliet when the first film followed Hamlet.
Man, if only they spent time explaining this during the movie. Would have been longer but I would soooooo watch a longer version. TLK2 was always my favourite song wise, TLK1 has iconic amazing songs but damn the sequel ones hit different
Kopa part is fan theory not real proves it happend. Yes there is book where is Kopa, but no proves Zira killed him. Later disney just replace Kopa with Kion who is almost same age with kiara and other cubs of lion guard serie .
Thankyou, this really was needed to be cleared
Half of this is fan theory though....
I love this story but this is a fan theory, not cannon. Kopa is not a cannon Disney character, he was written into a series of kids books like 20 years but the guy who wrote the stories wasn’t writing cannon for Disney. He had permission to write the stories but he wasn’t working for Disney so all the characters he made up for his story are not official Disney characters. I still enjoy the fan stories about Kopa though, they’re very creative and fun. But just in case anyone wondered why Kopa wasn’t mentioned in the movies that’s why.
In lion king one and a half i laughed so hard when all the disney characters came because like when the lion king characters came i thought oh thats it and then mickey came and im like they are finished and then everyone else came and i was so suprised i laughed
How about after this series ends, you could do the "animated" cartoon versions of these like Tangled the Series, Hotel Transylvania the Series, The Lion Guard, Jake and the Neverland Pirates, etc.
Yes!
Seamus is a disney fanboy so i doubt he'll do the Hotel T series.
Holy crap I need to see Seamus react to Tangled the Series
That will take him a long time to watch tho, these sequels are like 1hour 15 lol

You do have a point about Simba's pride being rushed, but that doesn't necessarily make it bad
these were my favorite Disney sequels as a kid. i own Simba's Pride on DVD bc it brings me so much nostalgic joy. the "deception....... disgrace....." song is iconic

Lion King 2 is just someone going "What if Deviantart was a movie?"
It really felt like it was based off of fanfiction
Nah that was Lion Guard lel and that's coming from a huge TLK and TLG fan haha
Why are the lions hot. Why oh why are the lions so hot.
Kovu tho👀
Uh oh furries detected
Out of all your comments, which i see everywhere, this is the best
I’m not a furry but these Lions Though-
Gaba Gaba famous last words
Okay but "I think I need to delete myself" is honestly such a mood
I Just realized that “Simba’s Pride” refers to his LION pride. I feel like an idiot
But it can also mean that his daughter is his pride and joy
@Emma Flintoff where did that come from
I need a Cinderella, brother bear, kronk’s new groove, fox and the hound 2, etc sequel reactions. I need all the Disney sequel content please 😂
Honestly, The Lion King 11/2 is EXTREMELY underrated!
Yeah, i watched it, and honestly it was a bit corny sometimes, but it was very enjoyable!
Yeah, I remember catching it on Toon Disney and expecting it to be bad but it was pretty clever.
ITS NOSTALGIC OML
.....Cinderella III is being held over us like a consolation prize when its actually the BEST direct to tv movie Disney has ever made.
You must watch that movie.
I need more terrible Disney sequels, but the bonus disc for lion king 1 1/2 is full of games and a safari, I recommend looking at all the bonus discs for all the lion kings
Arkidie I know there was a safari mini game were you explore the prideland
Out of all the endings to the Disney sequels, The Lion King 1/2 had the best ending ever. I wish we had more films like that.
when i was younger i only watched lion king 1 1/2 bc we only had the regular lion king on vhs so it has a special place in my heart and I was glad to see it ranked so high
i enjoyed lion king 2 and consider it the best straight to dvd sequels however I am named after kiara so maybe i’m biased
Bro same with me and ice age
My actual name is from my countrys version of the character
No I agree with Samus that it is lion king 1 1/5
epic vid Seamus my friend, but your singing is even more epic :)
I'm glad the song He Lives In You was included in the 2019 remake, it's such an underrated song
It was originally written for the musical! The musical is amazing!
The lion king two is my favorite movie ever, I’ve memorized all the songs, and I’ve watched it so many times. Also, when Kiara said “look at them, what differences do you see?” I believe that might be themed towards racism, I could be wrong, but that’s what I took from it.
"Are we the baddies?"-- Thank you Seamus for that.
I would say Upendi is more the Can You Feel The Love Tonight of Lion King 2.
I was expecting Upendi to be the one named
Love Will Find a Way is the more obvious one. Upendi to me is more along the lines of Hakuna Matata, but instead of being about letting go of your responsibilities, it's about embracing the love.
Who else really wants to see Seamus review the cinderella sequels?
Seamus: always there to make me laugh when I’m in my sad boi hours
My friends and I got high once and watched Lion King 3 and it actually made me cry, my best friends got it for me on blu-ray and it's still my favourite Disney sequel after LM2. I'm happy to see it up top of your list too!
2:05
The nightmare does actually serve the plot because instead of scar killing them it's Kovu. Therefore growing simbas mistrust of him.
lololol I was just watching this video and when seamus was singing "SIMBA'S PRIDE!!!" my dad was like "what weird sound is that"
Uhmm Peter Pan's sequel was the best one and everyone knows that. It was so good it got a theatrical release.
And also 101 Dalmatians Patch's London Adventure is SO GOOD.....And Cindetella 3
@Bshara Hourany We All Have Opinions Y’know
React to: lady and the tramp sequel
I love that movie.
Oof, I personally don't really like it. Please don't take any offence to this,this is just my opinion but, the guy who does the voice for the pup (can't remember his name) just sounded so old when the character is supposed to be a puppy. And I just found the main character (the pup) super annoying. Maybe its just because I didn't really grow up watching it. Idk.
Omg YESSS
For those of you who don't know, in The Lion King 1 1/2, there's also a hidden mickey game. And I would know. my siblings and I watched that until the CD wore out
I found the villains in simbas pride to be really enjoyable. They're all just so interesting and I love how their relationship to Scar was left open, we don't know who zira was to scar or why the outlanders still chose to follow him and be banished, all we know is that somehow scar had chosen kovu to act as his heir.
I know the story was based around Romeo and Juliet, but zira gave me lots of Morgana le fey vibes with her raising her children as instruments in her revenge against simba.
Please continue this series!! It's really funny and fun to watch, and then go watch the Disney sequels you talked about after cause I want to be more in on the jokes and have no self control...
The important part of this comment is to ask you to please keep doing these videos they are great
Yay! It really is the best Disney sequel. I don’t even like Lion King but I love Lion King 1&1/2 so much!
Now you have to react to Lion Guard: Return of the Roar
I am like that show
