TVTropes' take on LK

TVTropes' take on LK

Postby Panthera Arohanui » October 17th, 2011, 12:14 am

So I just looked at the TVTropes page for Lion King (all three parts plus the Broadway show), and there's a lot of tropes to look at in there! :-o So do you agree/disagree with any of the tropes? They all seem pretty spot-on to me. :D

I will never get bored with that article! Yeah, it seems to be correct, but sometimes I do with that they put down their sources, not because I disagree with the trope, but becasue I would like to see the source material if it's for some secondary source.

Exactly! That is the whole reason I cite any Lion King fact I post here. I've had too many people tell me things that turns out to be completely false. I used to end up believing them and getting my hopes smashed. I now independently verify any new unusual information I come across, especially TLK related stuff. As a whole I like TvTropes, and have read that entire Lion King article, but the citations deal is main reason I haven't visited in a while.

TVTropes is cool! I've been on that site before and I've even tried to identify tropes in some of my own stories.
I am also a big fan of: Phantom of the Opera, High School Musical, Harry Potter, Disney in general, Days of Our Lives, musicals in general, Dr. Seuss in general and the Grinch.
