Clever foreshadowing...?

[Mike]

Your future king doesn't imply that Scar would ever be king o.() Unless you misspell it as

You're [the] future king. That doesn't fit with the rest of Mufasa's speech though. It's a non sequitur

[Misiziri]

Well lions dont spell things, so... and your and you're sound exactly the same. And foreshadowing usually coincides with another thing a charcter is saying, it doesn't really have to fit because it's not part of the story (the foreshadowing, not what the foreshadowin is implying.)

But considering how angry Mufasa was when he said that, I hardly believe that he would even imply that he would one day let Scar reign over the Pridelands. I mean, look how THAT turned out.

*Facepalm* How shall I explain this... Mufasa is saying : "And YOUR future king!" implying Simba will rule over Scar one day so he'd better show some respect. The WRITERS, and the writer's using THEIR OWN voice, not the writer's developing and showing Mufasa's character, I THINK implied Scar was going to be king later on in the movie. Of course it ended up as a disaster, but it DID happen. I think, for the story part Mufasa was indicating Simba's rule, but to add a second, more elusive meaning that Scar would be future king.

That's my take on it anyway.

^ Completely agree. Besides, it's a really good compromise.

It's good to see agreement

I understand what you mean, but I disagree. I really don`t think there was any foreshadowing, just Mufasa demanding some respect from his rude little brother.

Opinions are opinions, and unless I confront a Disney official, we'll never know. I'm just trying to illustrate my viewpoint and make it a little more understandable.

Of course.

Lions don't speak either =3

If it were "you're", the rest of Mufasa's speech just doesn't make sense, and Mufasa isn't prone to spouting verbal diarrhea ^.^
