My Lion King Forum

timon and pumbaa is a great and funny team.

Timon and Pumbaa are definitely supposed to be funniest characters in the stories they are in. And I think they are there for the kids, mostly. Fart jokes, sadly, are they're go-to thing. But I think they got over-exposed. Lion King 1/2 was... a little too much for me. I'm just more of a Zazu guy.

But remember, they sing the song so good, and i like the timon voice when he singing.

timon and pumbaa was chased by nala.

Haha!!! Those line is very excite for me. Simba was appear when Nala wanted to katch Pumbaa...

There's one of the things that we can learn from them:
"Friends stick together to the end."
I have this kind of bond with my best friend and Timon & Pumbaa are really great.

They were my favorite as a kid, espicaly Timon but I was disapointed with the cartoon and TLK 1 & 1/2. Timon will always be my favorite.

I'm not sure if I've already posted to this topic some time. Well, here I go anyway.

Sometimes I wonder what the story would've become without them. Probably too depressing to fully entertain even a drama lover such as myself, but... I still wonder how else Simba could've been saved. If they could've come up with something that didn't get so over-rated in the end. Is it because of how dark the story would be without them, why they're making such a big deal about them in the franchise? Are they for some reason trying to turn people's attention away from the true nature and heart of the original story? Because they are not that funny! o.O I mean, so funny that they'd deserve practically more space in the franchise than any other character, even Simba himself.

Don't get me wrong, I like them. But mostly in the first film, there and there in the second. The 1½ I wish never happened. I hate it how I can't help but be generally amused with the stupid fart joke while I still genuinely hate it for it ruins/disgraces the most majestic and one of the most touching moment of the original story.

I know Timon and Pumbaa were supposed to be the comic releifs but I found them very annoying.

^ I agree. They may have moments where I find them slightly amusing, but for the most part I find them annoying and hyper.
