2019 - 3.7/5
For the most part it's a re-hash of the animated version. I will never think it's as good, but it was done well.
The CGI was really good, the voice actors were all right too (I found that the voice actor for young Simba was pretty close to the 90s version; I absolutely thought that Seth Rogen was a great choice; people are gonna hate me for saying this, but I didn't think that Beyoncé was a good choice).
I will say that someone told me before I watched it that the one thing that bothered them was the lack of emotion portrayed, and it's understandable because you can't really animate that, but as I was watching it (the part where Musafa dies) didn't pull at my heart stirs nearly as much as the animated cartoon version from the 90s. So that part was a bit meh for me.
Overall, it wasn't bad and I liked how they kept it pretty close to the 90s version.
*My personal opinions* on any movie that I have watched.

Toy Story 4
2019 - 3.9/5
a little sad there wasn't a short... :(
***SPOILER ALERT***
really enjoyed it.
i liked how it wasn't as tear-jerky as the third.
liked it more than the 2nd movie, but not as much as the 1st or 3rd.
i liked the plot:
simple plot, but they made it to be an eventful adventure.
it was nice to see that Bonnie liked Jesse more than Woody.
overall, i felt as if there was a "girl-power" undertone to the movie.
i liked the new characters:
it was nice that although Woody was being put aside having been replaced by Forky as Bonnies favourite toy, that he didn't resent it as much as he resented Buzz in the first... you could see the growth in character since the first movie, and it was nice that his immediate course of action was to keep Forky at whatever cost.
i liked how Bo-peep and Gaby Gaby didn't have beef (bc that was the direction i though it was going to go, kinda like the 3rd movie).
i also like the Bo-peep's story wasn't a sob story, but more along the lines that she found her way and she had a sense of empowerment, or ownership of her own life.
the plush toy horse that kept saying he wanted the dad to go to jail was funny.
the bunny and duck wanting to attack the store owner and the carnival booth attendant was funny.
i liked Duke Caboom, but being Canadian, i find that they portrayed him as kind of dumb (obviously not happy with that).
