What where did that's come from... what ever moving on. The movie has alot of facts like Scare being the not so alpha male and his brother the mufassa being the alpha male of simba's lion pact.

Ok, So only males in the movie that are lions that you see is Scare, Simba and Mufassa and in a lion pack there is only one male for all the lionesses in the pack.
So Simba's Girl friend is technically his half sister. And well you know what is implied at the moment when they are chasing each other playfully through the forest. So Disney basically had a movie with incest in it although when we were kids we didn't know what alot of things mean in movies. But the fact is that our parents have known about it but they were ok with it because we were kids and we wouldn't have noticed it anyway.Kinda bad for Disney huh?
His name is Scar...not Scare.

Incest is common among lions, who cares? They had different mothers at least.

Wouldn't it be more illogical if Disney covered up the incest or pretended like it didn't happen in nature?
semck83 (229 D(B))
28 Jul 14 UTC
I don't think Legion is saying the movie is illogical, but that he can no longer enjoy it now that he has applied logic to the situation. Perhaps?

In any event, putin is right -- it's pretty realistic for lions, so I think it's reasonable to portray it realistically. Kids won't notice, and when adults apply "logic," then they can realize that's how lions live, and if they're going to like lions, they'll have to deal with it.

Well yeah but its just, When you grow up and look at the old things you used to watch when you were little you can notice all the pretty messed up stuff. I still like the lion king it was a good story. Its just as the title puts logic ruins it.
THELEGION (0 DX)
28 Jul 14 UTC
I know incest is common in the wildlife but to make a movie about lions and actually putting in some nature facts regarding them is kinda messed up in my opinion. I mean its Disney they could of made it where she was from another pact but they did not. So yeah eww. Lol

I think Rule 34 is more effective at ruining childhoods.
Putin33 (111 D)
28 Jul 14 UTC
Most good children stories are "messed up". I think that's on purpose as they teach moral messages, typically.

In Aschenputtel the sisters get their eyes gouged out by birds. Rumpelstiltskin rips himself in two. The old witch in Hansel and Gretel is burnt alive, etc.

This is probably the least offensive thing you could find that Disney has done.

Good physics interview
I suspect the following interview with eminent cosmologist George Ellis (coauthor with Stephen Hawking of "The Large-Scale Structure of Spacetime") is so good that it will be enjoyed even by those who suspect I am linking it only because of his religious views.

A Farewell To Draugnar
This is meant as a farewell to one of my oldest friends on the site. In the over 5 years we knew each other, we played in many games together (when he managed to get above 0 D) and got in countless arguments. He had many flaws and was the single biggest headache to deal with out of anyone while I was a mod, but he will be missed.

Reduced sentence because of large contribution.
I won't pretend that I thought of this out of nowhere, I won't even pretend to be able to objectively judge the situation, but I want to mention an option and a potential policy change that could be better for everyone. It's a compromise. In Draugnar's case, I propose taking his medal and/or keeping him banned for a few months or perhaps even a year as a sentence, but letting him come back after that. He's not like blankflag. He contributed in many ways.

Webdip League of Legends
Didn't seem fair to hijack the Doda 2 thread to talk about a competitor game.

I play LoL, but I'm a newb, just hit level 20. Screenname is Redwardian. Been playing quite a bit this week, as several free champions appeal to me.
