No.

I didn't vote but I wish to comment on this.

Well, the first topic you linked to that had tens of random basic ideas for a series... the one with tax system, military Mheetu, religion, and all that imaginative but relatively weird stuff...

First of all, I sincerely want to give you kudos for colourful imagination - that is always great thing to have and I hope you'll never lose it. Don't let rude comments ever put that out.

But perhaps your imagination got too wild in that series' case. Especially if you wish to "bring back the Lion King spirit" as you stated in one of the later posts in that topic. I mean, I can't see what about those ideas has anything to do with The Lion King spirit? Even though I believe there could be humans in the TLK universe even though they showed none on the savannah, your ideas are too much weighted in the human world and human intelligence with the animals themselves. And then the time travelling idea which takes it even higher than human intelligence... And through all that some of the ideas are downright unrealistic, which is also why I wouldn't count on their wings carrying far, much less getting paid for making them. At least you'd probably need to make them into some hybrid lions to make it work or be less poingnantly weird... but then it would no more be TLK based much at all.

As for the Lion King spirit again, if I remember correctly the producer and the directors literally say on the commentary track or in some documents that "we wanted to keep it to the animal world as much as possible". They just gave it the human touch with the kingdom and monarchy and family relationship stuff to make it work as a story of morals and coming-of-age and responsibility.

Series might be a good idea but for this fandom's spirit, I believe realistic approach and a smoother human touch would work better, especially seeing to your ambitious goal with it.

thanks for the comments so far and ill give you some feed back
i will admit this idea was nearly completely destroyed by the amount of people who didn't like it but i soldiered on to make it better
the circle of life series was i think for me very complex it was ideas i stuck together. For example Marley a sprit who was once guardian to simba who would help in hours of need i completely scrapped.
Taxes was the huge thing people where annoyed about now i used this to explain many story lines like my fan fiction
Revoulution the begginnings of the Ahadi familiy line.
Also i used this to explain parts of story in circle of life i can now just pin point to food shortges. Though the idea of animal currency is still an idea in my head. Not like coins but kinda like this
ill give you a mango for 3 oranges something like that which was a thing i wanted to start where Timon starts a inn. Where he trades fermented fruit juice (yes fruit juices can ferment and become alcholoic in the sun)
Now i wll thoughly adit the time travelling which was supposed to take place from the powers of Rafikis evil brother Moadiu has been scrapped. It was a stupid idea to try and make a episode im sorry for all the anger it has caused
now when you say
your ideas are too much weighted in the human world and human intelligence with the animals themselves.
what did you mean by this
was it my idea about clergymen
or that the animals are showing too many human traits please tell im interested
2 episodes of the circle of life are around
in the fan fic section where i have potrayed them how i wanted them in novel form please read them and see what you think and i hope it explains any of the stuff here
