"The Lion King 2: Simba's Pride"


Again, as with the first one, I just wasn't up to watching it, but the 13 year old in the house forced me, too.

This film centers on Simba's daughter, Kiara, who falls in love with Kovu, the boy lion raised as one of Scar's followers. Wanting so badly to be together, they must ignore the two people that keep them from one another; One being the most evil creature ever on film (pretty close, I think) Kovu's mother, Zira, and the other is Simba, who is still holding a grudge against the Outlanders. Kiara is the key to a resolving the bitter hatred between Simba's pride and the outcast pride led by the mate of Scar.

I didn't find a single song I liked in the soundtrack and I was surprised to find that Joss Whedon has written some of them.

It was okay. Maybe it was better than I thought it would be. I tell ya, though… I'm about Loin King-ed out! Yet, this scene is awfully cute! Oh, and a lil' scary!
