Okay i am finally breaking down and watching TLK3

[quote="FlipMode"]And toilet jokes, who doesn't love those?[/quote]

*Slowly raises hand*

Unless it is something like a person is using a disabled toilet and they pull the alarm cord, thinking it's the chain for flushing... That kind of toilet thing is funny, but not constant fart references, etc...

But anyway.

I don't think there is any real evidence out there that would tell us that when this film was in its very very early stages, the creators actually had other TLK character focus in mind. If I'm wrong on this and there was (and a member can point it out to us), then I'm wrong.

I guess. Actually even the early announce trailer which played on a couple of Disney VHS releases (WHY DO I FEEL OLD?!) was literally Timon & Pumbaa saying "What is that music? You would think a new Lion King movie is coming out."[/quote]

Well, I remember seeing the trailer right before it was released. I think it was on the DVD of Finding Nemo when this came out back in 2003. Because I used to watch that film a good deal (and because of Dory). **

I'll be really honest though. When I saw that TLK 3 trailer where Timon is fixing the film's title logo, also refreshed myself on him. I heard about the film at least another time before I actually saw part of it for the first time in late 2005 (on Disney Channel, one evening). But before that, I thought it was going to be a "rip-off" type D-T-V film where it was simply going to be about T & P all the way (no journey of Timon's and such), and just LOL with them and that's it. Just like some of the other bad sequels Disney was making back then.

Thankfully, I was wronged about this in TLK 3. I stumbled on the "Heart to Heart with Mom" scene when first seeing it on TV in late '05, and I actually wanted to see more of the movie after that.

I don't know why I never came back to the movie right back then. But one thing's for sure. I didn't come back strong to Timon, until as some may already know on here, early last year.
