Hard to say...especially when it comes to the first movie. Zazu, I guess. He's annoying, sorry banana beak!
That's not to say I'd like to see the movie without him because he makes some of my fav scenes possible, but his character just always annoyed me.
In Simba's Pride? Well Zazu is even more annoying in that one, ha! I don't mind Nuka and Vitani, the plotholes and questions/debates that SP causes bother me more. Some people are determined that these two (but not Kovu) are Scar's cubs and the fact that
ALL those outlanders were
nowhere to be seen in the original (only the hyenas are on Scar's side...well, at first anyway) it just causes too many questions. I tend to believe Scar had no cubs, he may have been planning it (as seen in the musical play when he tries to make Nala his queen) but it didn't happen. Of course this debate won't ever end so who am I to spoil the fun, lol
It always bothered me that we were never told what became of the hyenas. Just that they "ran off". Yeah realistically hyenas and lions are natural enemies, but yknow something that always annoyed me was how they were excluded from the balance in which we "need to respect all the creatures from the crawling ant to the leaping antelope"...but not the hyenas, I guess. They have a part in the circle too (and realistically speaking are
not just scavengers, lions steal from
them a lot too) Just always seemed hypocritical of Mufasa to teach that lesson while one species was still excluded from it.
[quote="Jiirani"] and let's face it, the first TLK movie only had two cubs which is unnatural. It was nice to see more than just one and I felt bad for Nuka, being neglected by Zira :[/quote]
Well, they're the only two cubs we
see, I tend to believe there were more (as seen in the storybooks etc) but the movie's plot didn't need them to make an appearance. There
was meant to be at least one more originally (not counting the six new adventures), Mheetu (Nala's little brother) but he was written out thanks to story changes and lack of time (so I've heard) I assume the same can be said for any other cubs unseen in the pride...but maybe I'm thinking too much into it, this
is Disney afterall and they don't play by the rules of realism
