This is a little poll I made for all you TLK fans. If Disney, were to make more TLK movies which charecter's background would you want it to be about? Nala? Mufasa? Sarafina? Pumbaa?Scar? The hyenas? Sarabi? Or Ziara? Cast your vote! All votes count.

it's kinda disapointing that sarafina only got 1 line in TLK... and possible 1 Line in TLK2:SP...

I would like to see a prequel of Mufasa and Scar growing up, so I voted Mufasa! Plus I would also like it if they showed more of Kopa like in a Lion King 2 1/2! Or of course a sequel would be great!

uhmmm... Kopa shows up and dies, between the end of the first, and the beginning of the second... so if it was in a 2 1/2, then he wouldn't be in it, because that would be between the end of Simbas pride, and the beginning of the third (which was not made), and it would make sense...
I vote mufasa, I want the whole prequal thing, BUT I don't want it rushed eigther, and made into a quick, direct to film release, and be all crappy, and disappointing... =/

I picked Zira for the reasons below stated:
-I sensed it has the 2nd largest possible creative license with the canon storyline. It lends itself easiest to experimentation IMO, since her background is relatively unknown, thus allowing more insight to her relationship with Scar and the others, as well as possibly citing reasons for their banishment as a group from the pride (though I suspect she went bonkers after Simba 86'd scar and the hyena occupation.)
-It would possibly be a prequal to Simba's Pride; it would be a good time to explain WTF was the dilly-o with Nuka being given the Scar treatment, and why Kovu was given the "Mufasa" treatment, and have the whole process repeated once again. It would also give them an excuse to tell us where the **** Kovu came from in the first place.
The only thing I think would be wrong with it though, is it won't be even remotely child-friendly. Considering Zira's being portrayed as a psychotic Nazi trying to holocaust the pridelands, and they aren't exactly cute or cuddly.

Thats assuming Kopa dies... we don't know what happened to him it's all guesses... for all we know Zira could have told Kopa to 'run away, run away and never return' we just dont know

I would doubt that.
Simba = Killed Scar. Zira = Mad enough to kill.
I wouldn't be happy if someone threw the person I loved of a cliff, for Hyenas to eat and stuff, I wouldn't of told them to just leave and never return, I'd kill him.
There's many of "theorys" on what happened, like zira pushed him off a cliff, and that Vitani killed him during a playdate (I heard that was acutally in the books, but I don't know, haven't read them).
I don't know, only truth we can find is from disney.

I wanted to vote for Scar. I want to know more about how he turned bad, and how he got involved with Zira and the Hyena's.
Instead, I picked Mufasa. I want to know why his father wasn't still alive, and why his mother wasn't either.

Scar and Mufasa. Sarabi and Sarafina would probably be included in that too. I would like to know what Scar was like before Mufasa was the chosen one, and how his dad was towards him, I dont like when people say he hated him and things, he just gave Mufasa a lil more attention cause he was the chosen one :] And of course how he got his Scar and involved with the hyenas. A film about these characters would answer many questions ^__^

I agree with Raf. If they made a movie on Zira, it would fill in the gaps.

You guys, all of you, are forgetting this has all been covered in the 6-installment series Six new Adventures. It says in there, Mufasa's dad (Heck, I forgot his name) chose him to be king, which bummed scar. What made him REALLY steamed at Mufasa, was the fact that their dad would promise to do things with Scar all the time, and then flake out to go spend time with Mufasa, like clockwork. Thus, Mufasa got 98% of dad's attention, and Scar got neglected, relgated to prince-dom instead, and embittered. He was 100% a momma's boy though, and his mom was the only one who seemed to love him. When she died for some reason, he was completely alone, and because he didn't have anyone to love him, got even more mad @ mufasa for being given star treatment, while he got nothing.
(Note: Brief account of Six New Adventures follows. To skip, skip the areas in lines.)
His first known assassination tempts on Mufasa are recorded in the books. When Rafiki first wandered across the pridelands (they looked exactly like a desert in the books) during an extreme drought, he overheard Scar planning with the 3 hyenas about picking a fight with a water buffalo (IRL, they are hardcore enough to flip over SUV's, and often require several slugs the size of your biggest finger to be killed), skipping out on it, then leaving mufasa alone to try to fight him, knowing that Mufasa would get squashed like a bug. It was going according to plan, until Rafiki came to warn Mufasa. Instead, the buffalo decided to charge me, (and due to a bad knee for some reason) and Rafiki tries to get away. Mufasa helps Rafiki escape by allowing to ride him, and they run. They escape by jumping over a gorge which the buffalo falls in. Later, scar Tries to have mufasa killed by having a spitting cobra bite him in his sleep. In my infinite badassness, I charm the snake away, saving mufasa.
Kopa was part of the Six New Adventures series in no small part, but I don't think he died, as we come to believe. Having him killed in any manner we have theorized, would by WAAAAY rated R, and not G for kids. I hold the opinion that he is NOT dead, but is simply not present where we've seen TLK. He may have been sent to a neighboring kingdom for guidance, he could've gone on a journey of learning with an older member of the pride. It sounds stupid, but it is feasible, however slightly.
The other ideas would be nice, but redundant. Many of them would simply recreate what we already know, and would thus squander possible insight into unknown areas that need clarifying. I would to have a character explored that is relatively connected to the Main plot, and not so vague disney could do stupid things with them to botch the original storyline.

Yea, but thats only a book, I didnt forget it, actually I was gonna say I dont go by it. The book is only the authors take on it, and not official. So really, its up to you if you want to go by it or not. I dont, it still didnt show Scar and Mufasa as cubs...actually it didnt have much atall, its very poor. And I want Sarabi too. Many people have said the idea of making a movie about Scar and Mufasa growing up, its probably the most popular choice, as it would answer many questions. Even though the chances are very slim, I would love a movie about them.
...Then they make a movie about Timon and Pumba's story...... -____-

Sarabi's actor died like a year after the first TLK.... I would not watch a movie where the character's voice kept changing.
