Simba’s grown up-revenge

辛巴的长大-复仇


As the orange sun rises above the African plain, birds and animals migrate to Pride Rock because there a lion cub is born to their king, Mufasa. Rafiki, a wise old baboon, blesses the newborn Simba, and lifts him for all the kingdom to see.

As time passes, Simba grows. He loves to play with his best friend, a lioness cub named Nala, and to tease his father’s advisor Zazu, an easy-to-fluster hornbill. Most of all, Simba loves to be with his father, a firm, well- respected ruler and a gentle, patient teacher. Mufasa tells Simba that he will be king someday, and Simba can’t wait for the fun of becoming king. But the world is not as it seems to a cub. Scar, Mufasa’s brother, wants to be king and plots to get rid of both Mufasa and Simba.

Scar sets his plan in motion by sending the unsuspecting Simba into a trap. Then Simba is caught in the middle of a wildebeest stampede. At last Simba’s life is saved by Mufasa, but Mufasa loses his own life in the process. Simba blames himself, and flees from Pride Rock. Scar returns to Pride Rock as the new Lion King.

Simba is now out on his own, aimlessly wandering in unfamiliar territory. Lonely and frightened, Simba is befriended by Pumbaa, a good-hearted, slow-witted warthog, and Timon, a wiry, hyperactive meerkat. They take him to their jungle home and introduce him to the joys of no responsibility. “Hakuna Matata”, means “no worries”, becomes Simba’s motto for life during his adolescent years.

                                                                                                                                       Years later, Nala reappears. As the two recall their childhood friendship, deeper feelings emerge. Although Nala urges Simba to return to Pride Rock to challenge Scar’s evil rule, Simba hesitates.Soon the mystical Rafiki appears and leads Simba to a clear pool. Simba gazes into his reflection. With help from Rafiki, Simba sees Mufasa in a vision.Mufasa convinces Simba to return to Pride Rock and take his place in the circle of life.

Simba realizes he must now confront Scar,so he returns to Pride Rock. As lightning strikes, Simba battles the savage Scar. Amidst the flames and smoke, Simba defeats Scar and regain his rightful place as the Lion King. 

Time passes. Animals gather below Pride Rock to see Rafiki hold up a newborn cub — Simba and Nala’s kid. The circle of life is now completed and begun again.
