Kopa

[atouchofgrace]

I hate when I'm talking randomly about the cub at the end of TLK and someone pops out of nowhere trying to tell me the "truth" about him and how brutally murdered he was and how sad Simba and Nala became since that terrible, terrible day...

I wonder how he would have sounded like as a cub and adult.

Ahoy! I don't know kopa is not official, but why he placed in here?

Coz he's a semi-official/semi-canon/book universe lion. He wasn't made by a fan, but by a book writer. (SBS, dont chuck a wobbly at me for saying this. Some people have different classifications.)

Oh please. Book universe? Obviously. Semi-official? Yes because even though he wasn't created and developed by Disney, he was approved into the book universe by Disney but never existed in the movie universe. But he's not semi-canon as long as he's being denied by the canon film's makers and seriously no one can validly escape that fact. But the being part of the TLK book universe I guess is enough for this topic to be placed on this board.

All I would wish is that these book universe character topics were put into a sub-board that says Book Universe Characters instead of having these hanging among the movie universe characters as if they were in the same stories though they're not. That sub board would spare people from a lot of this: .

Aright, go and talk to the moderators about it then. I'm sure they'll change it, just for you.
As I said before, and I do feel like a broken record here, people have different views on what Kopa/Mheetu/Tama are classified as. You may not consider them semi-canon, but some do. Sometimes it feels like you are being quite aggressive. I too get frustrated by how many people love Kopa for no apparent reason and when theories are blurred into fact. But you don't have to be so padantic about it. I know you say you allow people to have their own views, and I appreciate you saying that, but could you please take it down a notch? I am glad that I have found people like you who love The Lion King and are passionate about it, but please think before you say things sometimes. Please don't take this as a personal attack. I'm just saying that people are being brought down by your comments.

Actually there are some German auto-plays with Kopa in them, so he has 2 voice actors, one when he's young and one when he's an adult. Not sure who they are though..

Just for me? I don't think they would, and I wouldn't require nor expect them to.

Sure I can take it down a notch. (:

[Algi]

owh, sorry...
but i still like Kopa!!!

I heard that in TLK6NA books, when Simba and Nala have Kopa as thier child, Nala was the one who is the overprotective parent of him. I wonder how that would've have looked like if it was in any of the actual films..
