Last time I talked about the Lion King, we were seeing just how big the body count was for this beloved Disney movie and sayong Scar was the rightful king. WEll, we are leaning into that even HARDER this time! Today, I want to talk about the sibling rivalry to end all sibling rivalries - Scar and Mufasa. Theorists, lions are a very, VERY interesting animal. I think that Scar ATE Mufasa after the stampede. You'll have to watch to find out WHY!

I like how I go from a grub hub cinematic universe to a cannibalism of Disney characters in a split moment.
-
"Hyenas dont eat lions" SCAR GETS EATEN BY THE PACK OF HYENAS AT THE END WHAT THE FU-
-
Truth! Having worked on the film I can 100% confirm its a baboon skull. Great Video!
-
11:41 So the entire scene was meant to give those who knew all this a heart attack that Rafiki was dead, when, prior to that, he basically held Simba up for the kingdom and then screwed off somewhere. And lived through the ordeal, even being able to help Simba, Nala, Timon and Pumba.
-
Can we just appreciate the fact that matpat for once did not ruin a child’s movie but saved it from becoming dark
-
“Well, Hyenas Don’t Eat Lions”. hyenas that ate scar: am I a joke to you
-
Well. Scar was confused when Simba came back, thinking it was Mufasa. Had he eaten Mufasa, he wouldn't have even thought that it was him.
-
The skull that Scar was messing with is not big enough to be a lion, but it’s perfect size for a baboon.
-
In short: MatPat re-asserting his dominance over the internet Pride of theorists.
-
You know life has dealt you a bad hand when you’re given a name like “Kinky Tail”.
-
I forgot how good James Earl Jones' voice acting is.
-
How Pride Rock ended up so desolate and wasteland-ish is because you have (in movie presentation) two massive groups of predators hunting in the same turf. Overtaxing of the prey animals tips the scales, and yes, when Scar becomes Lion Tartar is when things start to go right, because Simba tells the Hyenas to beat it, thus lowering the number of Predator groups back down to 1. That's how I see it anyway.

"Hyenas doesn't eat Lions" end of the movie: Hyenas trying to eat Scar
-
Matpat proving TikTok Theory wrong restores the internet’s circle of life.
-
I've heard that little scavengers depend on the hyenas, needing them to break up the big bones in a carcass. Kind of nice to think of a cooperative community of scavengers working together.
-
OTHER piece of evidence the skulls eyes were facing forward which is a trait of great apes
-
the original actor for scar had the absolute perfect voice for his job
-
god it is so satisfying to see him absolutely tear apart stupid tik tok “theories”
-
3:57 LION GUARD MANAGED TO MAKE IT INTO THIS VIDEO LES GO!
-
I thought it was a lion skull until I rewatched the movie. The moment I saw the skull a second time, I noticed the canines were way too large for a lion
