The stories of Simba from The Lion King and Joseph of the Bible may appear to be completely different, but if one takes a closer look at both stories then they would find many similarities between the two. The first similarity that is presented to the reader is the setting of both stories. Both are set in Africa; furthermore, their is the situation of famine in both stories.

In Joseph's story, he has a dream of a massive famine that could wipe out all of Egypt. The dream eventually becomes true but, he saves Egypt and his family by being prepared for the famine.
Shakespeare’s Hamlet and Disney’s The Lion King share some similarities, where the characters presented are closely related. Noticeably, it is obvious that Simba’s character parallels that of Hamlet. Born into royal blood, both prince Hamlet and Simba are introduced into a life of privilege. It is said that Hamlet possesses one of the most complex personalities in literature, mainly due to his erratic behaviour that renders it difficult to draw conclusions. Hamlet’s whit and charms are presented in his eloquent speech and general acquisition with other flat characters in the play that seem to capture his good nature. The clear similarities that Hamlet and Simba contain are the loss of their fathers, by the hand of their uncles. Both grief-stricken and in mourning, Hamlet and Simba seem to be the only two characters truly morning the loss of their king, seen in the lack of appreciation and respect associated to the death of Mufasa and Hamlet (Sr). However, the evident difference arises from what actions Hamlet and Simba take after acquiring the knowledge of their deceased fathers. Ham...

In fact, The Lion King is in on based on Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Disney writers conceal the basic character archetypes and simplified storyline in a children's tale of cute lions in Africa. On the other hand William Shakespeare’s Hamlet was based on the Epic of Son-Jara or Sundiata. This lead to the debate is the Lion King based on Shakespeare’s Hamlet or the West African story, the Epic of Son Jara. Simba, Hamlet, and Son-Jara are all heroes in their own story. All of them must take on a villain that knew very well, but who does Simba’s journey resemble the most Does Simba represent Hamlet, the prince of Denmark, or Son-Jara, the lion king.
Mulan tells that the story of brave Mulan. Mulan did not want her elderly father to fight in the war, so she disguised as a man and joined in her father 's army.

The characters in The Lion King closely parallel Hamlet. Simba, the main character in The Lion King, embodies Hamlet, He is the son of the King and rightful heir to the throne. The King of the Pridelands, Mufasa, parallels Hamlet Senior, who is killed by the uncle figure. In The Lion King, the uncle is Scar, and in Hamlet, the uncle figure is Claudius. Laertes, the henchman and right-hand man of Claudius, becomes, in the movie, the Hyenas, Bansai, Shenzi, and Ed. The Hyenas collectively act as hero-worshippers to Scar, loyal subjects, and fellow doers-in-evil. They support Scar completely, just as Laertes supports Claudius. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are the comic reliefs of Hamlet, and in The Lion King, this role is fulfilled by Timon and Pumbaa, who are a meercat and warthog, respectively. Both sets compliment each other, complete each other's sentences, act as caretakers to Hamlet/Simba, and are comical to the point of being farcical. The role of Horatio, Hamlet's right-hand man, is fulfilled in The Lion King by Nala. Nala concentrates on the aspect that Simba is the rightful King and that it is his responsibility to ascend to the throne. She is his best friend and someone whom he trusts. Just as Horatio loyally follows Hamlet, Nala is completely loyal to Simba. Not only are there ties of friendship, but there is also an element of respect and reverence in both friendships. Horatio and Nala both know that they are friends and loyal followers of the rightful king.

The movie starts off with the rising sun in the African Sahara jungle. You hear a loud yell followed by feedback from back up singers as a choir began to sing what would now be a memorable opening theme in cinema history. As a kid I didn’t know what I was watching as all different types of African animals began to ascend across the land to a huge rock. On this rock we see a Lion couple smile as a weird monkey appears and halts up a young lion cub and all the animals cheer in the presence of the young cub. Watching this as I child I was very confused and didn’t really understand what I was watching. Now that I’m older I realized that the gathering of the animals and the cheering for the new lion cub was a celebration of royalty and celebrating the future lions rein. This scene is very similar in history like we see when royal couples, like Prince Harry’s marriage. We get a huge celebration for what would be the next couple in power in England; the entire world was watching the wedding as t...
