"The Lion King"

from Pop Culture Double Date Hosted by Pop Culture Double Date

Is Jon Favreau's photorealistic version of "The Lion King" a visionary re-imagining of a beloved tale or the latest in a series of increasingly cynical, nostalgia-soaked cash grabs by our entertainment overlords at Disney? What, if anything, does this latest retelling of the story of Simba and his slow acceptance of his destiny add to versions we've seen and loved before? Both these questions, and more, are grist for the mill in this week's pop culture double date.
