[hahahey]

I mean the original soundtrack was incredible and Is greater but I still enjoyed the new one for what it was....minus the be prepared remake, that’s just trash

omg your icon is the reason I'm starting my work late. Why can't the fucking Packers ever just win a game with no nail-biting and questionable calls involved, lol

[hahahey]

Lol that game was so horribly tense, I’d love a nice easy blowout by the packers next please. but I’m definitely taking that packers win. I know the refs messed up but I’m going down with the ship that the lions wouldn’t have scored the touchdown they needed again the defense anyways🤷🏿‍♀️

Lol. I was on reddit and people were starting conspiracy theories about how the nfl fixes the games for the Packers because Green Bay is a small town and relies on tourism. And I’m like “Have you been in a coma the past two years?”

I largely don’t disagree with what he said but something about how he said it is rubbing me the wrong way.

[schmankerl]

It kinda sounds like he's implying that the reason this soundtrack is inferior to the original is because he wasn't asked to participate this time around, which in turn implies that he thinks that he's the (main? sole?) reason the original was so good and why the new one doesn't measure up.

"The magic and joy were lost."

Not just on the soundtrack.

I don't know if the issue is that the music wasn't as fun or if the rest of the movie wasn't as fun and that pulled the music down. It's really hard to say, but I did walk away from seeing and hearing the movie feeling blah and immediately listened to the Broadway OBC to get me loving The Lion King again so he's not entirely wrong.

i mean the new soundtrack was very bland but he's just saying this because he's upset he wasn't involved, it's purely petty lmao
