We lost one of the greats today with James Earl Jones passing. RIP to a true Legend.

OMG no. He lived so long but my God what a loss.

 

[GettrGriftr]

His first film appearance was in Stanley Kubrick's classic "Dr. Strangelove, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb."

He was a wonderful ole horny rascal in 1974's Claudine with Diahann Carroll

Disney secretly killed him so that new shitty Lion King movie would do great.

I'm not going to say I'm the biggest Lion King fan, but Lion King is incredibly important to me.

This movie actually got me to experience feelings. I think it helped me experience real emotion and begin my imagination.

I know this probably sounds bizarre but you know like when you're a kid and you just see something or go through something and it has that affect you the rest of your life?

Okay that's Lion King for me. If your dad and you built something or went fishing or you and your mom made cookies together or went shopping, well, that shapes you for the rest of your life.

I'm not saying I didn't do stuff with the fam you know but this is something else. I'd seen Disney movies up to that point but I can remember when the principal himself in kindergarten rolled one of those giant screen TVs and I mean it was one of those big TVs into the gymnasium and we watched Lion King for the first time.

I remember looking around and wondering is anyone else watching this cuz this is amazing. I don't really recall if the other kids liked it and the adults looked bored.

Screw them.

The Lion King basically was the birth of my soul, the light of my passion and the kindling of my ability to love within me.

The bond between Simba and Mufasa will live on in my heart forever and I even had the poster on my closet okay? You better believe I went to sleep every night with the Lion King cassette tape yeah that old.

So if you are grieving, just remember that some royal dead guy will always be there to guide you... and so will I.

Oh shit, they're gonna need a new Kaho Mizuki for the second half of Cardcaptor Sakura Clear Card. I think she was also the official dub voice for '80s April O'Neil, meaning she followed after Kraang's seiyuu. Damn.

I love Project A-ko and I had no idea she voiced B-ko. That’s both hilarious and shocking since it’s one of the best anime based movies of the 80’s.
