The movie itself, not the main character
Jesus that font color makes it super tough to read, at least on mobile.

The idea is solid (black with white stroke), but yeah, maybe the stroke could be thicker.
black with white stroke
I wouldn't say I had a STROKE exactly, but yeah I'm melanin-challenged and had some difficulty reading it 😛
Yeah, I wasn't super happy with that myself, but I didn't want to mess with the movie posters too much more. I tried adding a drop shadow, but maybe that could have been darker.
In the end we got to read it, no worries ☺️ good meme
The Hyenas in the Lion King are second class citizens living in squalor.
I refuse to accept this film as Lawful Good
The differences between Lawful Good and Lawful Evil are mostly aesthetic in my opinion. (They're both evil.)
actually (🤓) no. Lawful means having a set of principles not neccesarily obeying law or other people's rules.
Thars why my table calls it Aweful Good and refuses to include it. No true neutral either except for some eldrich beings
Off-topic, but there’s a character in Disco Elysium that perfectly encapsulates your comment: Evart.
In addition to helping you find your police-issued gun, the dude is an absolutely corrupt asshole, and does everything for the wrong reasons. However, he’s in charge of the labor union for the harbor in the city you are in, and he actually does a lot of good things for the workers - not because they are good, but because it furthers his political base and, if you take him at face value, he truly does believe in protecting the working class. Evart does everything very lawfully, so you can’t really arrest him for anything illegal because he hasn’t done anything illegal. So while it’s very easy to write him off as LE, he does have enough nuance to arguably be considered LG in some cases.
Yeah, following laws because they're the law with no regards to whether or not the law is just gets into bad places real fast. Opposite problem with chaotic good: automatically assuming that all laws and rules need to be opposed to do good leads to iffy or worse stuff too.
In conclusion: Neutral Good is the only real Good
Weren't the hyenas explicitly outside the kingdom? I don't remember the demarcation that well
Yeah, upholding the current ruling because it's the current ruling order is definitely more lawful neutral than lawful good.
Where does Song of the South sit?
Since racism was the law and societal norm at the time, I'd say Lawful Evil. Though an argument could be made for Neutral Evil since it wasn't necessarily an effort to comply with norms so much as those norms made it "acceptable at the time".
Under "stupid evil"
Aladdin is a classic chaotic good (almost everyone) vs lawful evil (Jaffar) story. It should be on here
How is Aladdin good? He's a 35 year old "orphan" that's also a thief, while still being fit enough to work, who's trying to woo a 16 year old girl through lies and deception.
The Sultan is clearly an incompetent ruler and most of the socioeconomic inequalities of the kingdom are his fault. Probably Jaffar has to balance everything to keep the city afloat.
And the princess is wrong: Prince Ahmed is a piece of ass. Wouldn't mind bathing his bloody sweaty body with my tongue after a one-sided massacre.
Aladdin is said to be around 18, where are you getting 35? Jasmine is said to be around 18 too.
And if you’re wondering why some people become thieves while “being able bodied” that’s a very privileged pov

I am unclear, are you going based on the age of the actor? Also, do you really expect anyone to watch an hour long thing instead of just pointing to where it’s mentioned? The original Disney version is what I am going off of
It's from the original 1001 nights story.
Hmm I don’t think that’s right, it was added by a French writer later
Afaik the 1001 nights is a compilation and has posterior input from other writers.
However, as your link states, the story is originally coming from Syrian vocal heritage, and the French author acted as a transcriber.
I haven’t read these so I can’t speak to them, so unless you can please share some highlighted passages just saying something like this is kinda annoying because it’s misinformation at best and misattribution at worst
