“No. I am your Father.” Easily one of the greatest lines in all of film history and it doesn't stop there when it comes to a real and true Man, Myth and Legend that is James Earl Jones. A King on more than one occasion on-screen Jones' voice and presence are always undeniable. Playing royalty seemed easy as the man exuded regality. Sadly Jones passed at the age of 93 on September 9, 2024. As huge fans here at Just Another Friday Night we couldn't think of a better topic than to celebrate the life of a true American icon. From voicing Darth Vader in Star Wars to being King Mufasa in The Lion King, Jones' voice was unmatched. His theater work is impeccable and his silver screen work is indelible. We're going to discuss our favorite pieces of his enormous body of work and invite you to share yours. Be among the Kings on the Star Mr. Jones, we love you, we will miss you and your voice and work will live on forever! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jafnpodcast/support

The animated film "The Lion King" (1994) tells the story of a young lion named Simba, who is preparing to become the king of the African savanna. Сюжет начинается с рождения Симбы, сына короля Муфасы и королевы Сараби. The plot begins with the birth of Simba, the son of King Mufasa and Queen Sarabi. Муфаса учит Симбу о круге жизни и обязанностях короля. Mufasa teaches Simba about the circle of life and the responsibilities of being a king. Однако, дядя Симбы, Шрам, завидует Муфасе и планирует захватить трон. However, Simba's uncle, Scar, is jealous of Mufasa and plans to seize the throne. Шрам устраивает ловушку, в результате которой Муфаса погибает, спасая Симбу. Scar sets a trap, resulting in Mufasa's death while saving Simba. Шрам убеждает Симбу, что он виновен в смерти отца, и Симба убегает из королевства. Scar convinces Simba that he is responsible for his father's death, and Simba flees the kingdom. Симба встречает Тимона и Пумбу, суриката и бородавочника, которые становятся его друзьями и учат его философии "Хакуна Матата" (беззаботная жизнь). Simba meets Timon and Pumbaa, a meerkat and a warthog, who become his friends and teach him the philosophy of "Hakuna Matata" (no worries). Симба вырастает вдали от своих обязанностей, но однажды встречает свою подругу детства Налу, которая убеждает его вернуться и спасти королевство от тирании Шрама. Simba grows up away from his responsibilities, but one day he meets his childhood friend Nala, who convinces him to return and save the kingdom from Scar's tyranny. Симба возвращается в Прайд-Ленд и сталкивается с Шрамом. Simba returns to the Pride Lands and confronts Scar. В битве за трон, Симба побеждает Шрама, который в конечном итоге погибает. In the battle for the throne, Simba defeats Scar, who ultimately dies. Симба становится новым королем и восстанавливает мир и гармонию в королевстве. Simba becomes the new king and restores peace and harmony to the kingdom. Мультфильм заканчивается тем, что Симба и Нала представляют своего новорожденного львенка животным королевства, продолжая круг жизни. The film ends with Simba and Nala presenting their newborn cub to the animals of the kingdom, continuing the circle of life. *** Slow Russian Podcast Transcript and audio download for $20 – https://russian.fromzerotofluency.com/courses/slowrussian Join my free email course with A LOT of useful materials for self-learning – http://realrussianclub.com/subscribe My premium step-by-step course for Russian language learners – https://russian.fromzerotofluency.com/ Get all three levels together and save $102 – https://russian.fromzerotofluency.com/bundles/all-of-from-zero-to-fluency UNDERSTANDING RUSSIA (new cultural course, no knowledge of Russian language required)– https://russian.fromzerotofluency.com/courses/understanding-russia
In Africa, the lion cub Simba is the pride and joy of his parents King Mufasa and Queen Sarabi. Mufasa prepares Simba to be the next king of the jungle. However, the naive Simba believes in his envious uncle Scar that wants to kill Mufasa and Simba to become the next king. He lures Simba and his friend Nala to go to a forbidden place and they are attacked by hyenas but they are rescued by Mufasa. Then Scar plots another scheme to kill Mufasa and Simba but the cub escapes alive and leaves the kingdom believing he was responsible for the death of his father. Now Scar becomes the king supported by the evil hyenas while Simba grows in a distant land. Sometime later, Nala meets Simba and tells that the kingdom has become a creepy wasteland. What will Simba do?
If you've seen the movie The Lion King, you'll know that envy and jealousy play a big part in the story. Scar's envy of his brother King Mufasa takes him down a very dark and murderous path. But is envy always a bag thing? Is it wrong to really, really want something someone else has? Brain Trust — Casuarina Street Primary School, Katherine: Bruno, Leilani, Eloise Lawson, Lexi, Kodah

Most people probably assumed that the entire Animal Kingdom had a huge funeral for their fallen King Mufasa before his brother Scar took over the reins as king. But the sad reality of what potentially happened was probably more gruesome and not for what was our very young eyes. A man on Twitter has gone viral after stopping to question something that now seems so obvious, but that we all seem to have missed. What happened to Mufasa’s body after Scar found Simba mourning the loss of his father? A question that needs answers! Listen to the podcast to find out what actually happened. The internet is shaken by this 'Lion King' discovery!
The 28th of Elul corresponds to the fourth day of creation when the heavenly bodies were created - the sun, the moon, and the stars. Our podcast begins with a famous scene from the Lion King, when King Mufasa tells his son Simba what the stars represent to them. What do the stars represent to us according to the Jewish tradition? Today's challenge - go outside with someone you love, a partner or a friend (in person or over the phone) and go outside. Stare at the moon and the stars - what do they teach you?

Let's get controversial!The History and Legacy of “Mystery Science Theater 3000”, Chapter 13: Sunset on the Satellite. Well, we've finally arrived to the moment I've been dreading: that time when MST3K riffed “Hamlet”. Why dreading? I don't care about Shakespeare. And trust me, we'll get into it.As a little bit of cultural exploration, I decided to break down the biggest feature adaptations of the play. Laurence Olivier's Oscar-winner in 1948, Mel Gibson's “sexy” revision in 1990, Kenneth “I'm a Fool for Dumping Emma Thompson” Branagh's complete 1996 version, and an irritating modern reboot with Ethan Hawke in 2000.But don't worry, there are jokes too, and special appearances from Ricardo Montalban, Grand Moff Tarkin, the Boys from Brazil, Mork from Ork, King Mufasa (technically), and Bill Murray.

In the wise words of King Mufasa, you must REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE. And to supplement that very meta, very poetic guidance from an animated lion with a perfectly resonant voice, it's OK to be figuring out who & what that even means every single day. In this week's episode, Minji sits down with comedian/actor/director Lilan Bowden to talk about her twists & turns of becoming said comedian then actor and now director. This isn't a discussion talking shop about industry maneuvers (though that would be a great spin-off episode for later).. this is about being a geeky middle schooler dying for a training bra to fit in with her peers and being a grown a** woman who can fully own that she doesn't care to be "one of the guys" or subjecting herself to the torment of watching sports. Yeah, we said it. And if you're into it, good on you. :) Lilan shares her career wins expanding from guest appearance on Parks & Rec (whilst Minji screams) to becoming a series lead on Disney Channel's Andi Mack and recently taking the helm as director of a successful short film Becoming Eddie. They talk about the humility of being a perpetual student, stepping into power as a leader and learning to trust a team. Life is crazy, but it can be beautiful. Sometimes we just need reminders that we're all constantly at the drawing board, being challenged, getting thrown curve balls (like a horrible performance.. or a relationship ending...or a global pandemic), and just learning to make the best of it all.
