^ I got that especially for Jeremy Irons. I watched it when it aired. BRILLIANT stuff and yes I did imagine Scar speaking. I have no doubt that his voice acting of one of the most iconic Disney characters played a part in National Geographic in choosing him to narrate it. It is a documentary/film. I do not wish to spoil it but it is really good.

I love all movies where Nathan Lane is in them. I don't know if it's just me or if it's done on purpose, but I have yet to see any movie where his character cannot be replaced by Timon, with only minor alterations. For example: the movie He Said, She said Lane plays a TV show director who has to shuffle between being a good person and keeping ratings up. The results can get quite... hilarious.

What's even funnier is that this movie came out before The Lion King!

I was watching Inspector Gadget, and realized "Whoa that's Simba!" I started freaking out. I was about 9 and I almost cried! XD

If only that movie wasn't horrifyingly terrible.

I like Broderick, but Don Adams is the real Inspector Gadget.

I saw Matthew Broderick in Godzilla and kept thinking about Simba.
Have seen Jeremy Irons in several films but most recently The Merchant of Venice, all I could think of was Scar.
Saw James Earl Jones in a TV show (can't remember which one right now....!?) and thought MUFASAAA.
Rowan Atkinson in anything still = Zazu (yes this includes Mr Bean lol)
Whoopi Goldberg will always be Shenzi.

I guess I'm a tad obsessed

So true.

...she didn't specify why she was crying

I was watching the Borgias the other day and there was a part where Rodrigo Borgia (Jeremy Irons) was angry and he was letting out what sounded like these angry growls/barks. Yes, I thought Scaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar!

Nathan Lane & Jeremy Irons' voices are really easy to recognize, and so when I do hear them, I always think of Timon & Scar
I remember being in school, we had just read Merchant of Venice, and we were going to watch the movie. As soon as I heard Jeremy's voice I felt like fangirling, but I managed to keep calm haha! But I was grinning like an idiot xD

As for Nathan Lane, I LOVED the way he voiced Snowbell in Stuart Little. He was cast perfectly for that role. Sure, I still recognized him as Timon, but I also saw that that was Snowbell's voice and it was perfect!

I personally find it hilarious when I recognize their voices, it shows how big fans we are! It's awesome!

When I was ten, I remember browsing the tv and I saw 'Jeremy Irons' and clicked. I did that twice and the films in question were 'Lolita' and 'M. Butterfly' I wanted to see what Scar's voice actor looked like. I looked for him via the sound of his voice. I did not finish the films because they were R rated and I did not want to get yelled at. LOL!

When I was young, I used to watch That's So Raven, and I found out that Mr. Petrachelli was played by Ernie Sabella. I was disappointed that his normal voice didn't sound like Pumbaa's.
