This topic came to mind just now, and its supposed to be fun an creative for people who love The Lion King! If this topic somehow ends up with people arguing and flaming each other, I will ask a mod to delete those posts and/or lock the topic. So please keep this one fun!

Allright, this is really simple. If you, being a lion or a lioness depending on your gender, were in the Lion King film - what would have happened? You could have changed the entire storyline of the film! You could have stopped Mufasa from dieing! What would you have done?

Would Scar have killed Mufasa?
Would you have fallen in love with Simba?
Would you have fallen in love with Nala?
Would you challenge Scar and take over the Pridelands?
Would you challenge Simba and take over the pridelands?
Would you hunt down Timon and Pumbaa for lunch?
Would you fire Zazu?
Would you kill Mufasa yourself for the throne?
Would you take control of the Hyenas?
Would you fall in love with Scar?
Would you totally not affect the story at all?
Would you bring all your friends into the pridelands?
Would you introduce them to the internet?
Would you take Sarabi as a mate after Mufasa's death?
Would you make Zazu your personal radio?
Would you keep the stampede from occurring?
Would you fall in love with Mufasa?


Be creative! Make it funny! Just don't go too far out of hand! ^^

Here is mine~

After meeting Simba in Timon and Pumbaa's "Dream Home", I would become his best friend and take Nala's place as Simba's future mate. When Nala come to find help for the pride lands and find the missing prince, she makes Simba fall in love with her again. I follow Simba as he goes alone back to the pride lands, to challenge Scar. After encountering him along the way, I persuade him to make me his Queen and he realizes that he only loved Nala because they were betrothed. When Nala, Timon, and Pumbaa find us just outside the boundaries of the pride lands, Nala doesn't understand why Simba doesn't like her anymore. After Simba takes Scar's place as King, I am chosen to become Simba's Queen.

A few months after the pride lands grow back, Simba and I embark on a quest to find more lions for our pride. After finding an elite breed of lionesses in the mountains, we bring them back to the pride and breed them together. After obtaining the control of now an elite pride, Simba and I decide to take control of the lands that border the pride lands and succeed with our new and improved pride. After extending the pride lands to three time its original size, Rafiki presents Amirah, our daughter, as the future Queen. Amirah has obtained some of the elite pride's traits and proves herself to become a great leader and skilled hunter. Amirah sets out to find more lions for our pride, which seems much too small for all the land we have acquired. Returning with a large, skilled pride and their leader, Denahi, Amirah chooses Denahi to become her mate and the future king.

After years of the prides living together, they have bred into an ultimate elite pride they is capable of taking even more land. Once taken control of all of Eastern Africa, our pride is strong enough to take on the humans. Once training the humans into becoming allies of our pride and as King and Queen, Simba and I take control of all of Africa. Defeating leader after leader of strong prides, our ultimate breed grows larger and swarms into south Asia and parts of Europe. As the pride grows stronger year by year, Simba and I die and leave the control to our daughter Amirah and her mate Denahi. They lead the huge pride to becoming rulers of Asia and half of Europe until human hunters become strong enough to fight against the elite lions. The numbers decrease and Amirah and Denahi are both killed by a swarm of hunters. Their son and his mate take control and the numbers decrease faster than ever before. The breed is finally wiped out, along with all the lions in Asia, Europe, and Africa - endangering the Lion species. Finally, lions become extinct and are but mere legends in the storybooks of young children.


Yeah... I shouldn't be in the Lion King...


No post what you would do! Whether you cause complete and total destruction or bring peace to the pridelands for years to come - share it here! Go crazy! Have fun! Be creative! And feel free to post different stories about what would happen, it makes it all the more entertaining~

Very creative topic!
Here's what may have happened with me.

A bright sunny afternoon, I had recently eaten lunch, and was full of energy. Then, something caught my furry ear, a large stampede of wildebeest in the gorge was occurring! Worried that someone would possibly be endanger, I hurried down to notice s young golden cub was running for his dear life. I quickly get his grasp by the fur of his neck and bolt at lightning speed. Soon, I would ask Simba with my muffled voice where he lived, of course the response would be the Pridelands, then I would safely return him home to his pride. Mufasa, was grateful that I saved his son (also his heir) and as a reward he would allow be to join the pride.

I was a lone cub, walking in the crag, searching for something to eat. Suddenly, a stampede! I ran for my life and climbed the rocks to save myself. Looking down, i saw a lion cub trying to keep him on the dry and old tree. I thinked, nervous: "What i do?! WHAT I DO?!?!?!" Then, two adult male lions came running and the golden one ran down at the cub. A few minutes later, i saw the same lion trying to save himself from falling and, looking up, i saw a brown lion, looking down at the golden lion. Later, the brown lion dug his claws on the golden's paws, making him roar, and saying: "Long live to the king!" Growling and without think, i ran up and pushed the lion, making him slip and fall in the stampede (lol, super cub!). Grabbing the golden's paw, i pulled him up a bit (super cub attacks again!). He licked my head and thanked, asking a bit nervous: "Did you saw a golden lion cub?!" When i was going to reply, the same golden cub appeared running and saying: "Daddy!" I was happy for saving them and, grateful, the lion asked if i wanted to join to his pride...

...and i said YES. Sorry Scar, but i had to do this...

I chase Simba away from the Pridelands, get rid of Scar and become queen! I then take over a few other prides etcetera ...
Zazu gets fired, Mheetu becomes my mate and king. I think I ruined TLK. I'll stop before I hurt myself.

I'm in the pride as a huntress, none of the females will be Scar's queen, I happily volounteer!

This is such a creative topic! Funnily enough, every single time I watch a film, I think "This would have happened if I'd been there, or that would've happened..."
So...er... so now I run out of ideas!

I'd be travelling around in the tardis, visiting random films, and making sure everything goes well, because sometimes plots can go terribly wrong
In the meantime, I decide it's boring and try to experiment (And graffiti Rafiki's tree, steal his fruit and run away before he wakes up...mwahahaha....)
The whole time I give the pride little hints and insights like "Hey Nala, you better watch out next time you have an adventure!" then I'd be right and everyone will be like "WOW!" and they'll be a little sad when I say that I come from a land with barely any green left in it...
aaanyway...
I miss the stampede because of the fact that I'm not an early bird...hehe...so Mufasa dies and Simba runs away. Oops. Next chance I get, I'll stir something up! When Scar becomes king, I push him off Pride Rock and voala!! The Pridelands are saved! "Great. So now who's going to be king?" Says Sarabi, and I realise that the lionesses don't know what the Pridelands will become in the future, so don't want to de-throne Scar yet. They're angry now. Dang! They chase me and I run away, and know that the only way to fix things is to bring Simba back. I find him easily, and spy on him from the bushes. I remember Nala and decide that I'll do everything Nala did in the movie, to make sure I'm successful! (With bringing him back to the Pridelands, not with getting him to like me or make me his queen when we get back or anything ...XD) So I chase Pumbaa but get out of control and eat him. Dang! I ruined Lion King again! Simba's mad and chases me. I jump in the tardis and zoom away, stopping by the Pridelands to quickly nick some food and leave some money in the lioness's empty paws, then disappear, leaving the Pridelands in a state.
I think everything'll be ok, but the next morning, I read the paper and find out that because the Pridelands have no king anymore, aliens came over and zapped them up. Oh well, we can always restore the DVD later. Now I wonder what I'll do when I jump into Harry Potter??

Hehe, I went TOO FAR with that. WAY TOO FAR. Yep, I think TLK's OK as it is! (Actually, we couldn't restore it back to normal, so I'm sort of fired for messing TLK up now...anyone got a job?)

*I replied to this topic a little late, but I like to flick through older topics!

I definitely would've made a BIG difference in the film. I'm not sure if I would've fallen in love with either of the males, though.
