My Lion King Forum

Wow! That language looks very cool on the cover of the movie!

Thanks for your compliment! XD It's Traditional Chinese. The first film is Diamond edition with Chinese paper box packed. Simba's Pride is printed in Chinese directly. Both of them have pronunciation of English, Chinese and other three languages. And subtitles of English, Chinese, and other four languages.

Aweome! I wish those were sold on eBay

I searched for it and found ‎Simplified Chinese version. It's not Traditional Chinese.(You can see the difference on the first word.)
Traditional Chinese is used in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Singapore. Simplified Chinese is used in China.

[quote="Elton John"]Interesting.... So the taiwanese version of the legacy collection is in a regular jewel case...

...Is the CD set in English or another language? Sorry i'm not very used to seeing foreign versions of soundtracks for american movies...[/quote]

So is the Australian Legacy set, jewel case. I hate the cardboard one, I wish I waited so I could have gotten a jewel case version.

And any foreign Lion King CD, if it has the titel on it in English, it's in English.
Every other CD has the title in their native language (just as info, hehe).

@MiKuna Matata: is that Cantonese or Mandarin? Or another dialect being used?

It's a little complicated. Mandarin Chinese is a tune, which is now used in Beijing, China and Taiwan. (Following by history) Taiwanese people came from China about 70 years ago. And they brought the tune(Mandarin) too. Now, we say the pronunciation in Beijing and Taiwan is Mandarin. But the writing is different, which is due to official rule. Taiwan uses Traditional Chinese, and China uses Simplified Chinese.
So, basically, the print on the DVD is different from my version. But the pronunciation is the same.

As for Cantonese, it's used in Hong Kong( sorry, I was wrong in the article before). The pronunciation is different from Mandarin. So is writing.

here is some of my stuff tho I don't have much

Look what i found stored away with some stuff, doesn't fit me any more, sad to see it go

So unless Disney comes out with a new better upgraded Lion King Video game i ain't letting go of this one, because its probably the very last of its kind, and im gonna play it now
