Broderick is probably most known to people as Ferris Bueller in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off", but to us he's the known and loved voice of Simba! What do you guys think?

I've sadly only seen one movie in him starring in it and that was The producers. Matthew Broderick was a good actor and I ended up enjoying the movie.

Oh yeah? I haven't seen that movie. He's gonna be in The Tale of Despereaux

I think he is sooo hot and his voice <333 makes me melt.

Ahh, good old Simba! ^^ MB is like the lifeline of TLK, since he's supported all three movies thus far and hopefully will reprise Simba's role in the next TLK movie, assuming Simba's still alive, and better yet, assuming Disney actually gets off their tails and makes the next TLK movie! ^^ I honestly don't think they could get rid of Simba, let alone Mathew Broderick, since there's just no substitute for his marvelous talents. I might have liked the Timon & Pumbaa show if he had lent his voice to the series for the episodes that featured Simba in them. There again, I probably would have liked the show a LOT more if every character had their original voice talent playing them, and not only Pumbaa. lol. Gotta give Ernie Sabella credit for keeping his character true at least. >.>

Never seen him in anything other than TLK :\

I really enjoyed Matthew Broderick as Simba! He has a very unique voice that works great for the cartoon. I've seen a couple of his other movies and really like his work. I'm so glad he stuck around for all of TLK movies! There's nothing worse than a new voice on a cartoon sequel haha

O.O You've never seen Farris Beuler's (sp) Day Off? I thought everyone and their mom had seen that movie by now. lol. That's probably the most famous movie MB is known for, aside from TLK of course. lol. ^^ I've seen a lot of his work, but of course, my favorite will always be TLK. ^^

Stuff I've seen him in is Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Godzilla, TLK of course, and maybe some other stuff I can't think of right now. FBDO is hilarious, but him in TLK is the best.
