The Lion King + Favourite Movies of 2024

On the final edition of Popcorn Culture this year, we’re reviewing the latest in Disney’s relentless lineup of remakes and prequels - Mufasa: The Lion King. With an all-star cast and crew (Barry Jenkins directing, Lin-Manuel Miranda songwriting, voices like Mads Mikkelsen joining the original cast), expectations are high. In our chat, we unpack whether the movie is worth a school holiday watch, and whether it enriches the larger story arc of Mufasa as a character. Then in Take Two, the question is simple: What were some of your favourite movies of 2024?
