My Lion King Forum

I think I didn't saw any topic of this so I thought I'd post it.

Some weeks ago I saw the deleted scene that was supposed to be when Scar took over the Pridelands
I find it quite good, and I don't know why it was deleted.
And it's also a sticky song, I can't stop singing it.
I love when they say 'It's like any other who murdered a brother' and 'Oh, Imagine if anyone dared'
What do you guys think?

Here it is in case you haven't seen it:


(Scar)
It's time you were all introduced to
Your ruler's executive staff
Perhaps not the kind you've been used to
But certainly game for a laugh

(Hyenas)
We'd like to assure you no fooling
Red meat is no longer our scene
And if now and then we're seen drooling
It's only an ancestor's gene

(Scar)
So prepare for a glorious future
Be prepared for the pride's golden age

(Hyenas)
It's like any other
Who murdered a brother-
If we don't spread rumors
He'll feed us and room us
With friends in high places
We hold all the aces

(Scar)
So don't try and rattle my cage

(Hyenas)
Oh, imagine if anyone dared
Be prepared
Oh, imagine if anyone dared

(Scar)
Be prepared

I think it would've been a good scene to add to the movie. I think the movie really needed some more scenes of life in the Pride Lands with Scar as king. It seems like it would've made his position there seem a bit more menacing and permanent.

Although they didn't add this scene to the movie, I saw it in TLKoB when I went to see it yesterday (they changed it a bit, obviously). I also saw a few more added scenes in TLKoB including Nala's departure (Shadowland).

I think I saw that before, but thanks for posting it again ^^
I'm with Moka, I think it would have been a great scene to add to the movie, there was a distinct lack of any insight into the Pride Lands while Scar was king

i prefer the original but hey i dont like change so

I prefer the original.The deleted scene seems like a recycled original.It would be good if they added the scene,but not as a song as it would seem too repetitive...

Seen it before but thanks for sharing it with those who might not have. ^^
