Mufasa has a lot going for him but Scar definitely has the musical talents in the family 😂

Scar proposing to Nala was too disturbing and creepy

Scar : Something is missing, what it is. Zazu :- YoUr GrAsP oN reaLity 😂😂😂😂

Yes - it was disturbing and creepy for Scar to propose to Nala. Yes - it is the only one of the deleted scenes that really should've made it into the movie regardless of its creepiness. Because A) it gave much more background to how and why Nala left. B) it made a disturbing, yet fascinating portrait of Scar's descent into madness. And C) lets face it - Jeremy Irons had nailed it in both "Be Prepared" AND "Be Prepared (Reprise)". The movie has a lot of comic relief and funny scenes. It deserved to have some more darkness to it as well. If only to balance things. Though, of course, I can imagine how putting this into the finished film could've easily turned into a PR nightmare for Disney. PS: Mufasa's song is a disaster lol.

Can't believe they deleted the scene when Mufasa sings. Was so gentle

“Give a roar if you need anything.” Yeah… they knew exactly what they were doing.

Zazus face as he listens to Scar talking about getting a Queen and making mini versions of himself is amazing, even more so when Nala walks in lol

"My cylinder's firing with fervor" *_SCAR!!_* 😂

Scar trying to get it with Nala is beyond disturbing

Wait but the Madness of Scar scene is so good, it starts out lighthearted with Zazu and Scar going back and forth and gets so creepy and dark and it gives the lionesses more clear agency before the hyenas come in and take it away! Be Prepared Reprise is also SO GOOD!!

The part of Scar, I like the lyrics in the musical better "Tell me I'm adored" But regardless of the lines, it's a great way to show Scar's mental stress and Nala's personality, and it's a pity it was deleted.

Man, it still baffles me how many scenes from beloved movies were slated to be in that could have literally ruined the film forever. It is a very slippery slope between a masterpiece and a lukewarm reception.

I’m fascinated by the art style of those storyboards, I love how cartoony it looks

I like the fact that Scar banished Nala so it would make more sense for her to run away because she didn't want to be his queen. I feel like all of these Disney deleted scenes from movies shouldn't have bee deleted!!

“You really have no choice. One way or another, I always get what I want” That line honestly gave me chills. Scar may be evil, but regardless people underestimate his cunning and intelligence to a different level.

My boy Zazu is underrated af, his deleted scenes are great

the only deleted scene i wish they had used is the one where simba and nala meet each other again. obviously with a few changes in the script (which is understandable since it's an early draft), but i feel like it echoes their childhood dynamic much better than what they went with in the end. it feels more like they have an actual bond - i also like that simba is instantly showing a lot of anxiety about his dad's death. it seems realistic to me since her presence comes along with that, and it makes the fight later feel predictable and flow very well. i also like lots of the things in timon's dialogue. i wish they had kept can you feel the love tonight serious and made timon's being upset about simba being the king (i feel like they got past it too quickly and it would have fitted his character a lot bc he's a selfish meme). thank you for coming to my ted talk.

The scene i really like is when Scar sings his "second" version of be prepared to try to make nala his queen, i kinda wish this wasn't taken out.

1.) the joke was cute. It was definitely in character. I liked it. 2.)King song definitely doesn’t feel needed. It’s cute but I can see why it was cut. I loved the intro of the song but the song just feels out of place after that. Maybe I just don’t care for musicals. 3.)Zazu and Scar arguing is gorgeous. Zazu’s comebacks are brilliant. This video is making me appreciate him more. But the scenes definitely do feel drawn out and I blame anyone for cutting out these scenes. Scar’s song here is catchy and fits the mood. I think incorporating it into the Broadway version was a good idea. It’s just so…him. I’d love to have the scene in the movie, but if the movie wasn’t geared toward children. The hyenas entering is just great too. I wish that scene specially hadn’t been cut, but the context is needed. 4.)This scene was cute to start, but I love how dark it turned. And I do like Timone being a turd, but it is better probably that it was removed because having a supportive friend in this moment was needed. Even if it wasn’t 100% support, it was more than what that scene offered. The argument between Simba and Nala is so realistically passive. 5.) Once again, I am loving Zazu even more with this scene. Such a stinky little birb

not gonna lie it would've been nice to see Mufasa singing in the lion king XD

As creepy the mate/proposing scene is, I feel like it should have been included. It is not the only creepy song compared to Hell fire. It shows the down fall on the pride and the insanity of Scar. Also Nala gets a reason to be so far off from the pride lands.

For the nala scene someone acrually made a very very good fan animation. It actually looks as if it could of been cannon to the story.

I wish the scene with Scar, Nala and the other lionesses had been kept in. It would have given Nala a bit more character. Personally, I disliked how it was never explained or shown how and why she left, nor the arrival of the hyenas (and therefore why the lionesses did not fight back). It would have also given the lionesses more agency. I agree with most folks that it was good that Mufasa's song was removed (as delightful as hearing James Earl Jones singing is), as the 'Circle of Life' speech works much better as it is much more thematically effective.

The moment nala said "scar?" Before entering i literally yelled: "NALA NO!"

Im glad they cut the mufasa singing lol

5:43 Zazu saying "A qwat?" is something I didn't I needed. HAHAHAHA!

I honestly would love to see the proposal of scar in the movie

I like to assume that The Madness of King Scar was one of the main source for the Lion King 2 and even solves one of the main criticism of the second film. Many people have pointed out that Zira was coming from nowhere but here, Scar stated that he considered having a family, so the idea that he find a woman and decide to adopt her son is not out of character for what was built for him in the first film

the "ive never been more serious in my life" genuinely sent shivers down my spine scar is such a slimeball

I really wish the scene with Scar and Nala was kept in the film , but it makes sense that it wasn't

"I choose nala as my queen!" Bye

I thank you -both of you for creating the Lion King, The Masterpiece, the characters, the feeling inside of every song they sung, the world they have and a beautiful story. 😭🧡

09:36 oh THAT was good. Scar’s eyes in the back while Nala running off would have been badass in the final

So Scar was after Nala while Zira was Scars wife? OMG scar was such a player.

Even though it's normal for a male Lions to mate with all of the lionesses. This is a family movie with animals who have human characteristics/Emotions. Makes for an unsettling scene if you ask me. But interesting content for my essay discussing the parallels of Hamlet and The Lion King.

Props to the people in charge of the movie. While some of these could have been interesting scenes in themselves, they wouldn't have fit the movie as perfectly as the others already in the movie, to tell the story. It's rare that I agree with good scenes getting cut, but the reasons are sound and it makes sense. Too much things would have been repeated if those were included aswell.

11:05 “friend?!” lol his face 12:45 “that was gas” LOL

The storyboards look like lil storybooks and I love that

these should've never been deleted,sure it would've made the movie longer,but it's always well worth it

There had already been the original release of The Lion King back in 1994 with The Flintstones (live-action), Hans Christian Andersen's Thumbelina and Richie Rich. Then came a special edition of the film by a brand new song, Morning Report. It was sung by Zazu to accommodate the rationale of the balance of nature after daybreak in front of Mufasa and Simba. These deleted scenes actually look wonderful to add to the movie to extend it more. If Disney and a lot of other companies agreed to include the deleted scenes to their movies, they will be about the same length as the documentary books and novelizations.

I never want to hear that song mighty king ever again

I would’ve loved to have seen this in the live action lion King movie

One of the things I love about seeing these early animatics is that the drawings are so loose and off-model just to get the feeling and direction across. Timon's drawings are especially hilarious.

Timon:"FRIEND?! FRIEND?! SOME KIND OF FRIEND SHE TRIED TO EAT PUMBAA!!"

5:50 Scar you don't even know. Your son is thrown off to the side for an heir who isn't even your cub xD

There could've also been an actual throne inside the main cave of Pride Rock, made out of actual mini rocks and a long big flat one; it would suit three lions, starting with Mufasa, Scar and Simba. If it got made, all those lion characters would definitely rule with honor and dignity. Scar was no longer next in line to be king due to Simba starting a new generation and Mufasa was bound to give the ruling rights within circumstance to Simba to commit it.

Okay no that Mufasa song needed to be deleted lol

ok mufasa singing is a bit weird

Scar is all seven sins put into one character!! I SWEAR HE IS!! He eats everything, sleeps alot, the lustfulness when he wanted to be with Nala! The list GOES ON!!

It's a treat to see how The Lion King is made! The part where Nala gets banished makes a lot of sense. Because I always wonder how she left Pride Rock. The scene also reminded me of Simba banishing Kovu in Lion King Two.

OK The Rhino Joke Got Me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I'm overjoyed how all three Lion King films are a complete trilogy collection. Perhaps both stories of Simba and Timon and Pumbaa ought to play back-to-back before the second film. Kiara, Kovu, Zira, Ma and Uncle Max will reappear in The House of Mouse trilogy and The Lion Guard takes place before Simba finished Zira.

The charging rhino one is a good one

“Didn’t you hear me?😡” “No.💔”

bruh that be prepared-

Man, I really loved the content on your channel, there are things that are very difficult to find on the internet. If it is not uncomfortable, I would like you to post more deleted and extended scenes, I really like to see it and if it is not asking too much, do you know any site where I can download this extra content?

Mufasa's song really doesn't fit

I wish they would’ve kept the scar and Nala seen it’s creepy but it’s awesome and it kind of explains everything to be quite frank like if they kept that at least I would know why she bloody left besides food. Plus the kids wouldn’t understand what is really going on Anyways I also very much like the last one they showed it was perfect. I wish that stayed as well.

Simba could've also told Timon and Pumbaa that everything he ever had was gone before stating that he now had nowhere to go.

The Lion King was also the last of three animated Disney movies with computer animation within traditional animation; here's the detail which had it: the wildebeest stampede!

I'm glad they cut what they did, the deleted shit just makes scar look like a doofus instead of a calculating threat.

To be honest I would rather them keep the one where Simba and Nala reunite because it felt more serious because in the final version they act like they are happy for each other and fall in love. To me I feel like that was rushed and didn't really fit well with what happened after the events of Mufasa's death.

Mufasa’s song reminds me of the cowardly lion singing in the Wizard Of Oz lmao. It is a cute song though

Scar (Jeremy Irons) was one of the many family relatives with an antagonistic nature. Lady Tremaine was like that as well, including Evelyn Deavor.

Mufasa song was so hilarious 😭💀✨

would that have been a ‘Be Prepared’ reprise?? 😭 that would have been so good

The Broadway's version of He Lives In You gave Mufasa the song he deserved

I'll give the live action remake some credit: Nala's escape made sense. Things were getting worse and worse under Scar's rule and Nala felt the need to sneak away in the middle of the night to find help. Having her find Simba because Scar exiled her when she refused to mate with him is just unsettling, considering he's old enough to be her father

That MUFASA’s song was so nice 😩😩😩😩

I feel like it would have been better for them to leave in Scar exileing Nala so that way it would have been more interesting when Nala was in the jungle and she could have had her own little comeback to the pride-lands. (Like they showed at 11:31)

Storyboard Timon my beloved

12:41 Ah, the original storyboard for the "It starts" gesture that had been made extra memorable by the video game.

I’m so glad those were cut, the kill the overall tight pacing and ruin the mood

Nice work

this video was awesome love it. the song Mufasa sang made me think of Duties of the King from the Lion Guard.

“I always knew he was a king I had a feeling in my belly” “No pumpa that just gas”. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

this gives me chills from when someone animated this madness of scar song

I really like Mufasa’s song.

I thought that last scene with Zazu was really funny, would have been fun in the movie (the voice acting is just too good!). I can see why the other scenes were deleted though. And I kinda like what they went with instead. But I agree with some, the Nala-Simba reunion felt a bit more natural in this version, like they actually knew each other here.

This is so cool!

King of the wild is a little too goofy for Mufasa's character. Glad they cut it.

7:03 why is Scar's leg lifted?😳

Scar: im the king! You must do as i say! The lionesses: "-.-" I love the whole scar szene. It should really made it in the movie, it gives a good glimpse into scars mind but also zazus. I love zazu there.

The proposal scene would have been good to keep as it added to the story and helped explain things. Weirdly enough, while this was my first time seeing the proposal scene in the cave, i could have sworn i saw the emergence of the hyeneas to the lionesses who wanted scar gone, plus the song reprisal that came with it on tv before fully animated. Am I crazy?

Give a roar if you need anything 😂😂 that alone makes me wish they kept that scene. 😂😂😂

New sub♥️

10:42 Timon is such a mood 😂😂

The early scene of "Simba and Nala's reunion" the first scene has been used literally in 2019 version

Mufasas song feels to me like the little secret moments you have with that one really impressing person in charge that you each other hold each other dearly. Like Mufasa basically. So basically what I am saying is: I imagine Mufasa singing this to Simba when they Had Special one on one time. So that's why None of us can See it in the movie - since we are not Simba but onlookers, we would take it differently and yes, it would falsify the impression of the character 😊

Zazu n Mufasa in the beginning literally felt like subtle flirting

Yes!

Sad mufasa's song didnt make it. It would make sense to show Simba that there's more to be King than what his son thinks.

Good choice in cutting 😂

I don’t understand why you guys didn’t add Mufasa’s song in the movie. It sounds great and honestly sounds like it’s great for him but then again I also understand what you guys mean.

HEY! WHAT'S GOIN ON HEYA?????????!

Interestingly enough, the scene with Nala leaving the pride lands to go find Simba was also added in the 2019 live-action remake as well.

There's even been a bundle of The Lion King in both appearance versions.

I really love the deletet scenes but the one with nala and scar is kind creepy

I love thes moves so much i wish they wood make a part 3

Everyone need to realize that cartoons weren't targetted to kids first, but to adults. As for Scar trying to get Nala, it was realistic, because lions don't have boundaries. Treating those characters as humans felt weird to read from most of the comments.. if not, the majority.
