Hakuna Matata means “no worries,” and back in the mid-90s, Disney’s The Lion King didn’t have a worry in the world. A massive box office smash, the animated coming-of-age musical would go on to win 2 of its 4 Oscar nominations and surface a hit Elton John sung soundtrack. But now, 30 years later, maybe there was cause to worry. Is a talking-animal Hamlet too heavy for a G-rated audience? Is the brother-murdering Scar too evil of a villain? And why does no one seem a bit concerned with Simba’s grief, guilt or mental health over his trampled-to-death dad? The Old Roommates ponder the circle of life while giving it all a revisit through their middle-aged lens. Listen to this.
