oh my god! :D that is so awesome :D everytime I think I've seen everything about TLK, a new thing shows up! I love the similarities between this and TLK, like the way that "animaniac" climbs up the Pride Rock, similar to Rafiki, even with that stick :D Why weren't there lions but tigers instead?
Thanks for posting this btw, really cool :) made my day ;)

Yup, I rememberseeing this parody way back when. To my knowledge, it was the first humorous poke at TLK that I know of. I think they used tigers instead of lions, just because it was so soon after TLK's release and the parody is really close to that of TLk itself, so Warner Brothers just didn't want to get sued. lol. :)

I love how closely they re-acted everything, I think this is the one of the best parodies I’ve seen!
I understand that Warner Bros. used tigers instead of lions to avoid a lawsuit, lol.

I've watched this vid a couple times and I thought it was hilarious. I like how they poke a little fun at TLK but don't overdo it like they did in TLK 1.5. It's a nice change. ^^ And I really like the parallels between this parody and TLK, especially the lyrics to the Surprises of Life. XD
BTW, in case anyone has trouble hearing, the "Rafiki" in the end says, "I thought they were supposed to land on their feet!" LOL :lol:

I remember seeing this a very long time ago. :)

It was interesting to see a parody for the first time. I got a kick out of it. ^^
