How Important is Zazu to the Storyline?

[KopsTheTerminator]

Any excuse to have Rowan Atkinson in your movie.
Short awnser: not very. Long awnser: nooooooooooootttt verrrrrrrrrrryyyyyyy

All he did as a character was, do what people told him to and get pushed about by everyone, poor bird even got put in the birdy boiler... How's that for importance? I think that when you have a character who, if you took out of the film, really wouldn't have changed much at all, equals an unimportant character... Gota love him though

Because without him, we would have a 20 minutes long TLK movie If the cubs went alone, they would be lunch for the hyenas. While Nala.. does nothing but be the character's 'love interest'.

I don't like Zazu that much but he did save Simba and Nala in a kind of way but i think he could have saved Mufasa if he went looking for help earlier.

He got knocked out, and he would get knocked out anyway.

Zazu was only important for the fact that he was a major tattle-tell and told on anything that got in the way of him and his perfect life. Oh wait, it that important? I guess not. But he did help... oh wait, what did he help with?

I'm beat.

Also every movie needs an annoying person and Zazu is perfect for that.

I officially love Zazu in the play! Don't think of me badly, but I think he's cute. Oh my gosh, I can't believe I said that! 0.o

I just can't see the importance of Zazu to the storyline

Well, he did show Mufasa where Simba was in the graveyard and the gorge.
