It looks like he slaps Mufasa on the face with his paw, leaving a gash over his eye, instead of brutally tossing him off the cliff. The way that he killed Mufasa is not only shockingly worse than the original but also one of the most shockingly laughable moments.His song "Be Prepared" is visually inferior to the original, as it is simply just him climbing to the top of a cliff.The replacement line is practically nonsensical, how is Mufasa supposed to "never forget" the "gift" if Scar was going to kill him for Pride Rock? Not only that, but his famous line "it's to die for" has been changed to "it's a gift never forget" line.His delivery of the famous line " Long live the king!" when he says it out loud instead of whispering it to Mufasa is rather angry, over-the-top, and bland compared to in the original, where it is actually menacing and scary.His voice performance by Chiwetel Ejiofor is shockingly very poor and bland, to the point where he sounded boring and nothing, compared to Jeremy Irons's voice performance in the original movie.Thus, he ends up looking like just an ordinary lion with brown fur and a slight scar that isn't intimidating at all. He suffers the most from the realistic animation approach which completely removes the ability to squash and stretches his facial proportions to convey his sinister nature.His personality is a rip-off of Metal Beak from Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole, as both characters are evil, planning to fight the good guys and even have minions.He is stripped of his sarcastic and sly attitude he had in the 1994 film, and thus he is now miserable and gloomy, as well as blatantly bitter and dismissive towards everyone around him as a result, he now comes off as unlikable and boring from the start.Why This Version of Him Is Not Leaping for Joy 1 Why This Version of Him Is Not Leaping for Joy.
