Pride Rock

Home of King Mufasa

On this page you can read outtakes my brother and I made up, short fan-fiction I made up alone, and fan-fiction by others.

And yes, I know there's a space between the Cut and the !, but that's what makes it funny! And if you think these are excessively silly, please excuse us, we were very young at this time. XD

Outtakes by me and Marty

Simba and Nala were on their way to the elephant graveyard. They got to the water hole, but the water was brown! Cut ! "Pepsi!? I asked for water!" cries the director. Then Mufasa said, "Pepsi's all we have left. Sorry." The director sighs.

Zazu and Mufasa are on their way to Scar. Zazu comes to Scar and finds him playing Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 and eating a big bag of potato chips, which is right in front of him where he can get them easily. The director's mouth falls open. "Scar...what on earth are you doing?" Zazu asks. Scar gasps as he realizes that the presentation ended at the last minute. "I... uh, hehe," Scar stammers, embarrassed. Cut !

Rafiki told Timon, Pumbaa and Nala that Simba had returned to the Pride Lands. Timon forgot his lines and got really angry at Rafiki because he thought that Rafiki told him to go so he couldn't hang out with him and Pumbaa anymore. "Timon! No! Remember your lines!" whispered the director. "Timon, I've always hated you!" Rafiki yelled. "How come you taught me Hakuna Matata?" said Timon. "I didn't know how stupid you were!" Rafiki's voice was rising with every letter. Timon pinched Rafiki as hard as he could. "Yow!!!!!!" said Rafiki. "Now you're gonna get it!" Timon had no choice but to dig a tunnel. Rafiki tried to follow him but got his head stuck in the hole. When Timon enlarged the hole, Rafiki fell in, head first. The director watched them in shock. Timon buried him. Rafiki was then yelling to "get him out of here". He had to dig himself out. He bopped Timon with his stick as hard as he could. Cut ! They just kept fighting until the director locked them up in separate cages.

The chaosy stuff between Simba and Nala in the jungle is over. Simba is sitting on a tree stump, with overalls on but no shirt, holes in the knees of the overalls, a piece of hay in his mouth, he's holding a banjo, playing it and wearing a worn out straw hat, and singing, "I wish I haaaaad a faaaaaaaaaaaarm!" Timon, Pumbaa and Nala all look at him, shocked. Simba realizes that the camera is taping him, quickly takes off the overalls and the hat, spits out the hay and throws the banjo in the water hole and runs away laughing as fast as he can. Cut !

Mufasa and Simba are taking the walk through the Pride Lands while Mufasa explains the Circle of Life. "You must respect all the animals from the huge elephants to the little chickens," he said. "But Dad," Simba asked, "don't we eat the chickens?" "Yes, Simba, but let me explain," Mufasa says. "When we die, our bodies become the corn. And the chickens eat the corn. And so, we are all..." He pauses. "No, wait, it was the antelope and the grass," he says. Simba laughs. "I knew something was messed up," he says. Cut !

Scar is singing Be Prepared. "So prepare for a chance of a lifetime. Be prepared for sensational news. A shiny new mirror is tiptoeing nearer..." "And where's my reflection?" Shenzi asks. "It's in your collection," Scar says. He pauses. "No wait, that doesn't sound right." Cut !

We're still at Be Prepared. "I know it sounds sordid, but you'll be rewarded when at last I meet King of the Jews..." Scar pauses again. "Is that right?" Cut ! "Scar," the director says, "you really need to work on your memorization skills."

Timon and Pumbaa are in the jungle trying to convince Simba to eat bugs. "Ew, gross!" Simba says. Timon eats a grub. "Ugh! Tastes like chalk!" he says and spits it out. Cut !

These are from the Lion King II: Simba's Pride:

"Okay, Kovu, your first scene is coming up. Are you ready?" whispered the director. Kovu whispered back, "I can't go on without my glasses. I can't see a thing without them." "For the millionth time, you can't wear them in the movie," said the director. "Just try. You'll do fine." "I'll try," said Kovu. His part came up. He took off his glasses and reluctantly got up on the set. He squinted a lot. He was bitten in the tail by an alligator, knocked over part of the set and lost track of Kiara a million times. While Kiara was going to the right, Kovu went to the left. When she went to the left, he went to the right. Cut ! They ended up spraying the frames of Kovu's glasses with invisible spray.

Instead of having that dream about Scar being Kovu, Simba was having a dream about eating a zebra. He woke up to find himself chewing and sucking on his paw. As soon as he realized what he was doing, he took it out, but it was too late. Nala and Kiara had opened their eyes. They cracked up. Simba didn't have a clue why; he didn't think they had seen him. "What's so funny?" he said. "You were trying to eat your paw," said Kiara, laughing so hard and loud that Simba had ringing in his ears for the next few years. Kiara was laughing so hard she started rolling over and over and soon fell off the rock but continued laughing. Nala just plain couldn't stop. They woke up some of the pride. Those who woke up heard what Nala and Kiara were saying about Simba trying to eat his paw and started laughing at him also and woke up more and more lionesses until the whole pride was awake and laughing at Simba. They were laughing so hard that Simba had to start laughing. Cut ! They had to save the rest of the movie for when the pride calmed down, which was a few weeks later.

Kiara is on her first hunt. Simba had told Timon and Pumbaa to follow her. Timon and Pumbaa run after her. Then when Timon looked over the edge of Pumbaa, Pumbaa comes to a complete stop. Pumbaa asks, "What are you doing?" Timon has his mouth slightly open for three seconds. Timon finally says, "Pumbaa, look down and help yourself." Pumbaa starts to get ready to do some munching when he sees 27 bugs. Kiara stops as soon as she hears crunching and munching. She quickly runs back and was so angry at Simba for sending them that she just blows out and swallows Timon. Pumbaa was angry so he jumps forward and tackles Kiara. Pumbaa jumps on her as hard as he can and Timon gets launched out. Timon was going through the wind so fast that he is quickly getting dried off from Kiara's spit. Timon goes straight down and makes a big splash in the water hole. Pumbaa runs over as fast as he can to see if Timon was okay. Kiara comes over also, laughing. Cut ! "You guys should be nice to each other! That is not how I wrote this scene!" cries the director, as mad as mad can be.

Simba has started singing We Are One. He suddenly forgets some words to the chorus. "Uh, we will stand...by your side...filled with...hope...and filled with...pride. We are...more...than we...are. We are...five." Kiara starts laughing as hard as she can. Cut ! "Uh, Simba, why don't you take a little time restudying the song and try again?" asks the director. "OK, but I'll need at least half an hour," says Simba. The director sighs. "Here," he says, holding the script open to the part of the song. Simba studies it for 45 minutes, occasionally pausing to close his eyes and trying to memorize it in his head. When he finally stops, the camera switches back on. Simba and Kiara get on the set. Simba takes a really long deep breath. He starts to sing. " We will stand by your side filled with hope and filled with pride...We are more than we are. We are... we are..." "Come on, come on, one! One!" whispers the director. "How many cubs do you have?" But since he's being quiet enough to not get it in the movie, Simba doesn't hear him. "We are...twelve." Kiara starts laughing again. "OK, why don't we just hide a chip in your mane that sings the song in your voice correctly?" the director asks. "You'll have to mouth it, though." "OK, I guess," says Simba. And that's why it sounded so perfect.

And here's one from the Lion King 1 1/2:

The song "Digga Tunnah" has just ended. "Uncle Max, relax," says Mary (aka Ma). "Have you seen Timon?" "No, I haven't," says Uncle Max. "And what a day it's been! No history, no science, literature, spelling, English, vocabulary, or math of any sort! In fact, there's no sign of my schoolbooks anywhere!" He pauses for a few seconds. "No wait, what was it?" Cut !

Random shorts by me

Scar has been king of the Pride Lands for 1 day. The hyenas are partying. Of course, the lionesses are not. But that's not the point. Ed has this big battery-operated toy microphone and he is running up Pride Rock. The lionesses are staring at him in confusion. The other hyenas are wondering what he's going to do but they keep partying. Ed turns on this big stereo, selects track 73 and rap music begins to play. Ed starts to sing, "Ain't no party like a King Scar party cuz a King Scar party don't stop! Ain't no party like a King Scar party cuz a King Scar party don't stop!" He repeats it over and over and over and the hyenas dance. The lionesses just look at them like they're crazy.

During Be Prepared, all the hyenas sing with Scar at the end. Imagine a baby hyena singing, too, "Be prepaaaared!" It would be really high and squeaky!

This one is also about the end of Be Prepared. It was rather loud, and the pride back at Pride Rock must have heard it! They must have plugged their ears and said, "What's all that racket?" Mufasa says, "Sounds like Scar. I better go check it out." He arrives right after the song ends and they stop laughing. He says, "Scar! What's going on?" "Oh, hi, Mufasa," Scar says. "Sorry about all the racket. We were just practicing for our concert next Friday." "Concert?" Mufasa asks. "What concert?" "Oh, you didn't hear about it already?" Scar says. "We're going to perform ten songs! That was our last one. Will you come?" Mufasa looks stunned. "Uhh, I'm busy next Friday. Sorry." He leaves.

One day I recieved a (fake) party invitation from my best friend that was just for the fun of it. It said, "Thou hast been officially invited to a Scar Party! Come on Friday night at 10:30 AM at King Scar's plush pad. If you don't come, he will eat you! -Scar."

Tribute to Kopa

By Chris B

Blue is Simba

Red is Nala

Green is both Nala and Simba

 

 

Kopa, my son

You were to be king,

You were to be the one

 

You were so young

But something went wrong

You were not with us

For very long

 

You died too fast

You were so peaceful

But the peace did not last,

And now I am tearful

 

Now I stand here

Since you past away

But I will remember you

Everyday

 

But even though you have to the sky,

With Mufasa and the rest

As long as we remember you

Your spirit can never die.
