    I did a movie day with “Lion King 1 1/2”, “Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead”, and “Strange Brew”.

    [My friend group would do “three film festivals” where the host picked three films but didn’t list them ahead of time. We would try to guess the theme during the films.]

      “Lion King 1 1/2”,

      I never heard of this movie, so I couldn’t figure out the theme, until I read that:

      The third installment released in the Lion King Franchise serves as an origin story for the meerkat/warthog duo Timon and Pumbaa … The plot of the movie is inspired by Tom Stoppard’s Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead,
