Ok, so I've been doing abit of exploring around TLK fandom lately, and apparently the word Sex is written in the scene where Simba collapsed in the pollen.

I NEVER noticed that until now! Is this the first time any of you have heard about it or am I an idiot? lol

That's what a few people have been saying, but I REALLY doubt that's what it really is.

No; It was confirmed by the animators that it was SFX^^

I know, but I still think that it was an inside joke between the animators, and they just said that so parents would go all PC on them.
I had a friend who used to work as an animator for Disney, he said that the word sex was in almost all of the animated Disney movies[I just never bothered looking for any of them until now lol] you just have to look hard for them.

:lol:

I'm almost certain that there's already a thread regarding this topic somewhere on MLK, although my memory is drawing a blank to where it might be, if at all, but yeah. lol. :)

1)There is a thread about this already.

2)Anyone who thinks that it means "sex" has their head up their a**. There is no debate. NONE! If the animators have confirmed that it means "SFX" then that's it and the debate ends there.

^^ viewtopic.php?f=34&t=618 Perhaps? C:

Anyway, it's kinda iffy for me. I mean, it could go either way and I KNOW that some people that worked on the movie claimed it was SFX. Then again, though... if it was 'sex,' do you really think they'd admit it? ;)

So in the long run, you can be fairly certain it's SFX. It does make you wonder, though. And if that was an ode to the SFX people, they sure picked a rather suggestive time to place it, eh? ^^

Unnecessary attitude, me thinks.
