  1. I am interested in seeing the live action Lion King, because I love John Oliver, I really liked the original, and I do not have enough of a sense of self-preservation. That said, that same reason (substitute Will Smith for John Oliver) led me to want to see the Aladdin remake, but it’s still sitting there, unwatched.

  2. I need to see A Man For All Seasons. I’ve done scenes from the play for school (and read the play), but never seen it.
