Comments on Mufasa: The Lion King 2024. After the remake they gave us in 2020 with a more realistic animation. Disney decided this time to give us more story lines that we didn't know about Lion King, which is the story of MUFASA himself before he was king.
We all thought Mufasa inherited his kingdom from his father. But only now did we realize he wasn't born royal. He and his two parents used to live together happily without any kingdom. They were not royal; they were just ordinary lions. Until an unfortunate disaster (a flood) happened that flushed him far away from his parents and into the arms of Taka and his family.
However, Taka, which is the actual name of Scar Simba's wicked uncle, was a sweet young cub with a big heart. And they became good brothers. Taka's mother, Eshe, took Mufasa in and gave him hunting lessons because King Obasii refused to accept a stray. But Taka was happy to have found a brother. Until one day they had to run away to save Obasii's blood line because they were about to be attacked by some outsiders. So they went on a run to find the mythical land of Milele, the land we know as Pride Land. And that is where things changed between Taka and Mufasa.
I, for one, don't see his fault for hating Mufasa for snatching his love even after Mufasa knew that Taka is in love with her. I do not support Mufasa on that. And though he acted in anger when he connived with those outsiders and almost got his friend's killed. But he quickly realized his mistakes and stood with his friend and also saved his life again. Although Mufasa forgave him, he swore to not call him brother or utter his name again. Which is why Taka tells him to call him Scar instead so that he will never forget his crimes. I totally think Mufasa overreacted; he should have considered his own crimes against his brother as well and understood Scar's behaviour.
At the end, Simba became king of Milele for saving for his bravery, and Scar was allowed to stay with him. The end. **Thursday, 9th January, 2025**
