The Lion King is an animated musical film produced by Walt Disney Feature Animation. Its development began in 1988, between Jeffrey Katzenberg, Roy E. Disney and Peter Schneider whilst in Europe promoting Oliver & Company . By fall, Thomas Disch had written the first treatment for the project (which was then known as The King of the Kalahari , later King of the Jungle , finally The Lion King ) and submitted it to the studio.  George Scribner signed on as director and was paired with Roger Allers. In November 1991, the two directors, along with a group of animators and artists, travelled to East Africa to research on the film's setting and animals. It was from this trip, that the group was introduced to the phrase "Hakuna Matata" by their tour guide.  However once they returned, Scribner stepped down from his position and went on to be a consultant for the project, leaving Allers to be paired with director Rob Minkoff.  A big issue concerning production...

This fantasy animation centres on Judy Hopps (voiced by Ginnifer Goodwin), a female rabbit who dreams of becoming a police officer in urban Zootopia. Despite the fact that there has never been a rabbit police officer before, she overcomes this obstacle and completes her police training to the highest standard. On her first day as a police officer she is assigned parking duty and is hustled by con artist, Nick Wilde (voiced by Jason Bateman), a red fox. The next day, determined to prove herself, she jumps at the opportunity to crack a case about the disappearance of 14 predators. Partnering up with Nick Wilde, she intends to solve this mystery and is given only 48 hours to solve the case, along with a condition that if she fails she must resign.  As we follow Hopps journey, we see the 'savage' nature of animals and the governmental conspiracy behind it all. It is a film that is also jam-packed with stereotypical humour and if one is to compare this world to ou...

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is set seventy years before the Harry Potter series, in New York 1926. The wizarding world in this film differs slightly to the one presented in the Harry Potter Series. The magical laws and terms are distinct from the UK since it is based in America. Instead of referring to non-magical humans as 'muggles' they are referred to as 'no-maj'.  In America, the Magical Congress of the United States (commonly known as MACUSA) established a strict law known as 'Rappaport's Law', which aimed to segregate the magical and 'no-maj' communities. A wizard seen or heard fraternising with 'no-majs' will endure serious consequences. As opposed to the Uk, where the worst witches and wizard criminals were sent to Azkaban, in America they were executed. The president of MACUSA during the time of Newt's visit was Seraphina Picquery.  Moreover, the wizarding school in America is Ilvermorny Sc...
