No matter how many times the hero’s journey gets rebooted and remixed, it’s still entertaining to watch. Case in point: this mashup of audio from The Dark Knight Rises trailer with footage from The Lion King.
In “The Lion King Rises” we get a version of the 1994 Disney film with Zazu the bird acting out the part of Alfred, the majordomo of Simba/Bruce Wayne’s life and rise to hero status. the lion king rises, The monomyth megamix continues with lioness Nala as Selina Kyle/Catwoman and Scar as Bane. lion king dark knight rises,
