Well, this is really belated but, Happy 10th Anni
TLK2SP! ^^ Let's see. When I first saw
TLK2SP on the day it was released on VHS, I can honestly tell you that I didn't like it much. Like many people, I was hoping for a very similar style of story and plot as the first movie and was completely shocked about how different the story turned out to be. The way Simba was different, both in character and looks, the way Nala was downplayed and how the young male cub at the end of
TLK had suddenly morphed into a female. lol. ^^ So I was really turned off from the movie for a short while, that is, until my brother rented the movie once more and I actually sat down with an open mind and watched it for what it truly was, an original story, with the same characters I knew and love, with new ones added in who I would also fall in love with, some more than others. lol.

After that point though,
TLK2SP slowly became my favorite movie out of the series and still is, although the original is right behind its sequel on my favorites list. ^^
Just on a side note, here is the 10th Anniversary Fan Made Trailer I made for
TLK2SP's 10th Anni. ^^ Hope you all like it, although it's old now, seeing as we're nearing the 11th Anniversary soon. lol. ^^
