Ok. Kimba , also know As 'The White Lion' was creasted in 1965. Now did Disney steal Kimba and fourmed it into 'TheLion King '?
Silmer senes : Non meat eater , The famous Thorn sene . Sene where the villan is above the hero how is dangling from a clif , So origanil.Stampede.The father in the clouds.
Important Facts :
*The names , Kimba - the"K"and Add a "S" is Simba.
*The Disney company denies ever having prior knowledge of the Japanese lion Kimba before making the Lion King Movie. If they had outright admitted that Kimba was the inspiration for Simba they would probably have to pay the owner royalties. There were some legal battles, but one of the Japanese companies that had rights to it went bankrupt so not much could be done.
*In early production stages, Simba was white.
*The rights to Kimba the White Lion were tied up in legal battles for many years, beginning when the original production company, Mushi Productions, went bankrupt in 1973. The US contract to the show ran out in 1978. Nobody had the US rights to it from 1978 until 2000. (However, there was some sort of breakthrough in the early 90s that led to the 1993 production of a new English-language version of Kimba that has been shown around the world, but not in the U.S.)
*The Disney corporate stance, that none of Disney's people knew of Kimba before the movie was released, has been exposed as untrue.
*There was a time line diffrence , 1965 , 1994. But ! I do recal after watching the first seson of pokemon on vhs watching a comecial for 'Kimba , The White Lion' So Disney could have seen it.
* I heard some rumors that Disney was right in the thick of the battle to obtain rights to Kimba . I am not sure if that is true.
*Kimba was comming to The U.S.A in 1993 but was delayed.
