I just realized the climax of the Lion King is kind of hilarious.

Because it came down to a showdown fight between Scar and Simba. And here’s something great about them: they are the weakest little shits.

Scar was this skinny twig of a lion who probably only got the 11th+ portion of any kill because nobody liked him, and the only way he could one-up anyone was through trickery, and/or by softening them up with a wildebeest herd.

Simba grew up without ever having to chase his prey or work particularly hard because he lived on a diet of insects and nothing else. Nala could kick his ass because she was a goddamn proper hunter.

So the final battle was the equivalent to a pasty-faced metrosexual teen slap-fighting a starving 60-year old

10/10
