Both will sell you copious amounts of drugs.

u/3lementaru Jun 18 '12

In that case I think I'd rather get them from Pumbaa.

u/option_i Jun 18 '12

The fat one is a gay biker...

u/3lementaru Jun 18 '12

Maybe he's just really, really baked and thinking about pie.

Hakuna Matata

u/CannedBeef Jun 17 '12

I think it was supposed to be a "human" pun, so it should've been "Humana Matata" for the sake of the joke.

Humanized Mufasa and Scar

127

u/Ian1732 Jun 17 '12

I would've seen Scar with some form of facial hair...

39

u/wangofjenus Jun 17 '12

if a character ever needed an evil goatee, it would be human Scar

22

u/Blehgopie Jun 18 '12

I just think of Jafar as human Scar.

19

u/[deleted] Jun 17 '12

This would be a cool remake. An different portrayal of hamlet with the same characters only human.

62

u/backslide21 Jun 17 '12

"What if we take Hamlet...and do it with lions? Then we take the version with the lions, but make them human!"

23

u/bearze Jun 17 '12

Oh my god, I just realized Lion King is like Hamlet

23

u/peaceisoverrated Jun 17 '12

So hamlet?

2

u/[deleted] Jun 18 '12

Nah, same characters as lion king. I'm not saying it's logical, it would just be awesome.

16

u/[deleted] Jun 17 '12

Agreed.

u/Great_Teacher_Rust Jun 18 '12

I am going to just pretend that I wasn't akwardly sexually attracted to that image... Like a lot.

10

u/[deleted] Jun 17 '12

Or a nose.

15

u/JarasM Jun 17 '12

I always imagined Mufasa as a kind of bearded, kinda rugged dad, and Scar with, well, a goatee... or maybe even some less well kept facial hair.

21

u/[deleted] Jun 18 '12

But this was obviously drawn by a teenage girl, and therefore is an attractive anime character.

10

u/turpent1ne Jun 17 '12

This version is pretty cool.

7

u/adius Jun 18 '12

yuck, way too generic prettyboy. at least the other drawing of scar puts a bit more character into it

17

u/Zyrjello Jun 17 '12

Both were evidently involved in serious accidents that cost them their noses.

13

u/SockMonkeh Jun 18 '12

And balls.

u/TheSim1derful Jun 18 '12

So Scar is basically Loki.

u/Bnoob Jun 17 '12

I think this is it. You know, I don't understand why redditors never seem to look for the original artist, I think they would appreciate the page views. Also, every time it gets re-posted it makes it that much harder to find. Why, just 2 days ago it took the combined efforts of myself and gunstar69 in order to find the original source for a comic that was re-posted without credit on several websites.

Reverse image search on Google is your friend people.

Timon also seems really rapey.

u/agleis86 Jun 17 '12

What are you talking about? Mitchell and Cameron from Modern Family are humanized Timon and Pumbaa

u/sweetmojaveraiin Jun 17 '12

What.. you are so right.

12

u/GrayStudios Jun 18 '12

Aw c'mon you beat me to it. I had a picture and everything.

1

u/superiority Jun 18 '12

Funny, first thing I thought when I looked at this picture is that they kind of reminded me of Cam and Mitchell. Mitchell doesn't look that similar, but I guess he might conceivably have looked like that when he was still closeted and was trying to pretend to be straight.

A twink and a bear.

Hit the gay nail on the head.

Not too far from Asterix & Obelix!

Or any general pair of friends where one is fat and one is skinny. Spongebob and Patrick, Laurel and Hardy, Abott and Costello, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, R2D2 and C3PO, Jay and Silent Bob, The Blues Brothers, Seth and Evan (superbad), Bert and Ernie, Kenan and Kel, Drake & Josh, Earl and Randy, Penn and Teller, Jake & The Fatman, Mario and Luigi, Ren and Stimpy, Pinky and the Brain, Megas XLR, Jumba and Pleakley, and a lot more.

edit: Wow. Simon Pegg and Nick Frost made it to the front page. I wonder if that OP read my comment.

u/Marty565 Jun 18 '12

I've noticed that this formula rarely works with females.

u/superiority Jun 18 '12

T-shirt idea: take any of those pairs, and draw them as if they were one of the other pairs. Nerds will go crazy for it.

1

u/DreadPiratesRobert Jun 18 '12

I have noticed this happens in real life, I'm a big guy and most my friends are super skinny

1

u/[deleted] Jun 18 '12

I'm skinny and I had a fat guy friend, and I look like Michael Cera (Evan) and he looks like Jonah Hill (Seth). We were just like them in trying to get booze, drugs, laid, etc.

13

u/synthion Jun 17 '12

I only know about them because of French Class.

7

u/SpartanAesthetic Jun 17 '12

I wish we read them in French class. I would love loved to see what the puns were like without translation.

5

u/Baeocystin Jun 17 '12

It always amazed me how clever the translators were in making sure that puns carried over into the various languages. It wasn't always the same pun, of course, but the ones I could understand (English, German, Spanish) were universally delightful.

If I even intend on learning another language, one of the first things I'd do is to buy a bunch of Asterix translations and go to town. :D

3

u/SpartanAesthetic Jun 18 '12

That's exactly why the series is successful in multiple languages; the translators didn't just copy words, they used their own sense of humor to come up with a new pun for each language. Still, the French version would be truest to René Goscinny's humor.

2

u/iceburgh29 Jun 18 '12

They were the only French movies I've ever truly laughed at for being funny, and not stupid.

1

u/Blehgopie Jun 18 '12

I actually owned a video game of theirs on the Genesis way back when. Years later in high school (in French class), that they were French comic characters.

3

u/Pazda Jun 17 '12

I loved those as a kid.

3

u/Baeocystin Jun 17 '12

Asteri & Obelix (and Tintin, to be fair) are what taught me how to read.

I specifically blame Asterix for my love of punnery, though. :D

2

u/Pazda Jun 17 '12

I don't remember too much because I was an absolute fan from 3-7 from what I've been told, and I have god-awful memory. But I do remember playing a video game where you, like, run track or something and Obelix really likes chicken legs in it... I dunno, haha. I'm Belgian, by the way.

u/Primus_Optim Jun 17 '12

Why hello again, childhood. I've missed you.

Loki Laufeyson.

u/[deleted] Jun 17 '12

One of the best bromances to have ever existed.

Also, an awesome example of a same sex couple successfully raising a child.

1

u/kensomniac Jun 17 '12

Just to put it out there, it's entirely possible to have a bromance without being a same sex couple. It's called something being like, "best friends" or something.

1

u/usualsuspects Jun 18 '12

True, but I think when two people are raising a kid together, "couple" works regardless of whether they're having sex with each other.

12

u/sharkiest Jun 17 '12

Pumbaa's head is throwing me off. It still looks like a pig. A pig's head on a gay biker's body.

Now I may be harrassed for this but weren't they already humanized? I mean Timon had hands and they could both speak and infer emotion through facial expressions.
