About this animation:
- Part of The Signature Collection by Walt Disney
- A young lion cub named Simba just can't wait to be king. But the sudden death of his father, Mufasa, and the treacherous actions of his Uncle Scar lead Simba into exile and ultimately on a hero's journey of self-discovery. Adopting the "hakuna matata" philosophy of his comical jungle guardians - a warthog and a meerkat (Pumbaa and Timon) - Simba eventually comes to terms with his destiny and returns home to Pride Rock to help put things right.
- Roaring onto dazzling 4K Ultra HD for the first time, celebrate the full glory of Disney's magnificent coming-of-age masterpiece, The Lion King! With humor and heart, breathtaking animation, and award-winning music, this much-beloved story transports you to the Pride Lands and inspires generations of fans.
- The film was originally titled King of the Jungle.
- More than 600 artists, animators, and technicians contributed to The Lion King, and more than 1 million drawings were created for the film, which is made up of 1,197 hand-painted backgrounds and 119,058 individually colored frames of film.
- When production began, an art team traveled to Africa to search for ways to best present the African settings in the film. Animators also studied live lions and other animals that were brought to the studio.
- The film has been translated into 32 languages, from Swedish to Zulu.

"In the broadest sense, The Lion King looks marvelous on UHD. Its bright, bold colors and crystal-clear definition yield a highly impressive visual delight. But texturally, the image is not drastically different compared to the Blu-ray. On the other hand, the HDR colors are what really offset, and elevate, the UHD from the Blu-ray."
I have this disc along with the 3D blu-ray, and the 4K is a definite step up with HDR and the expanded color. For this price, it's a no-brainer.

"...a 2160p video presentation, upscaled from a 2K digital intermediate, and featuring HDR10 color grading. The former does not radically alter the movie's core structural detailing but the latter does offer a shift in the color palette in a way that some may find rewarding and others disappointing, again depending on expectations for the film and the format."
I'll stick with Blu-Ray, but I'm glad you're happy, too.
