"Good Luck"?

[CalmSurrender]

My take on the "good luck" from Zazu is that the movie is from a different era with regards to how kids were punished and cartoon violence also. (Homer Simpson strangling Bart for example)
Simba was expecting a spanking -watch his little eyes widen in fear as he puts his tiny paw in his dad's massive paw print!! And he's just witnessed this guy give three hyenas a good thrashing.
Zazu doesn't know what Mufasa is thinking either, he probably knows that Mufasa would never hurt Simba but Mufasa is pretty angry and Simba will have to work hard to talk his way out of it.
Zazu has probably seen Mufasa angry before and thinks Simba is about to be either given a slap or verbally torn to bits.
He has no words for him, maybe he's a mixture of relieved the ordeal is over and in shock that cubs were almost eaten on his watch (even if it was unreasonable to expect a small bird to babysit two lion cubs!) He's weary and to top it all off now he has to escort Nala home in the gathering dark - coz that's safe!
So he wishes Simba the best and carries on his duties.

I'll never forgive myself for putting all of these worthless topics on here.

No, we don't know that. Many parents who love their kids do because it is a form of punishment that works, I would know. We only saw Mufasa briefly and what we are shown is that he loses his temper easily. Chances are he might have done it, but we are never shown enough to reasonably conclude that he would or wouldn't have.

BTW, this topic is not about what Mufasa did to the hyenas, and no1curr if you hate him for it or not...

I know this all must look ridiculous. Hopefully these topics I made will get removed (I'm OK with them being removed).

Simba would know what to expect, but we can't know what that would be as it is the only time we are shown that he punishes Simba. All we know is that Simba was terrified, so he surely expected something bad.

And, by 'briefly' I mean we aren't given much insight into Mufasa's character. We see him much less frequently than Simba or Scar or even Nala. And when we do see him, he's often angry and temperamental.

What do you mean we only saw Mufasa briefly? When did we only see him briefly?[/quote]

If you think about it, Mufasa is only in 6 or 7 scenes out of a 20 scene + movie

Well, to be fair, most of the time he's angry, it's justified.

[quote="Simba the Lion King"]And since Simba had never been hurt and never gets hurt until Rafiki hits him as an adult[/quote]
We don't know that. It's your assumption.

[Ninaroja]

[quote="Simba the Lion King"]Well he's dead 4 half the movie---I think that explains a lot!!
[/quote]

Well you were the one asking "when did we only see him briefly"

Anyway, Zazu was probably just trying to reassure Simba, seeing as he was clearly in a lot of trouble.

Don't see why it deserves a whole thread though?

Again, I know this must look weird. I'm sorry.
