TLK Trivia

[Moka]

Originally, Disney had it so Kovu was Scar's son. What made them change their minds?

[Katelyn23]

Is this a trick question, or is there an actual answer, if so help me out. I have no idea.

[Moka]

Disney originally did have Kovu as Scar's son. But if this were true, then Kovu and Kiara would be related as cousins. Now wouldn't THAT be weird?

[Katelyn23]

Oh yeah.. that would be true.

Maybe they would of had to change the entire story! XD

The whole issue of incest made them change that detail of the plot line and they even inserted litle quotes here and there saying that Kovu wasn't Scar's blood-borne son. And yet there is still a whole bunch of people saying that Kovu is actually Scar's son. It's fairly anoying cause it makes me wonder if those people actually watched the second movie....

[Moka]

Yeah. I should make a TLK family tree to eliminate confusion

Ok new questions. Originally Disney had Vitani named _________ ?

[Katelyn23]

Ooooh.. that's a hard one.. Give me some help here...

[Moka]

Shetani, which roughly translated as "she-devil" from Swahili. They dropped the working name and replaced it with Vitani. A cool fact: If you look towards the end of TLK2, where Nala and Vitani notice each other. Vitani says, "Wheres your pretty daughter Nala?", and Nala responds, "Vitani!" but if you look closely at her lips they look like she begins the word with an "Ssss" sound as if she were saying "Shetani!".

[Katelyn23]

Yeah I once noticed that. I didn't know that was actually her old name though.

Heres a list of characters from all over the place. I have to give credit to Zac...but I don't know who that is. So here it is:
