They made The Lion King for entertainment. They even say in the interviews that they--the Walt Disney classics--had gone from childrens' movies into just entertainment. The Lion King is targetted at all ages. It's supposed to be a family movie--not a kids' movie. And if you think for a second, it bases on Shakespeare's plays Hamlet and Richard III, and on stories from The Bible--and is done in a very dark and honest way, with Timon and Pumbaa as its only comic relief. Hence, not childrens's stories. Those too are in the Story Origins section of the DVD release.

Bonus features featured on the DVD releases of The Lion King has interviews of the filmmakers talking about the making of the film, and what inspired them while shaping the story. You'll find your answer, there. If you don't them, then, they are seen on YouTube.com; for example, look up "The Story Comes to Life - The Lion King" on the website.

How many ''Lion Kings'' are there?

Three. The Lion King, The Lion King 2: Simba's Pride and The Lion King 1½: Hakuna Matata which is semi-officially called "The Lion King 3" (as in, in European DVD releases' covers.) There are lots of rumours that there's gonna be "The Lion King 4" but there is no official source for that - besides it would likely be The Lion King 3 if there ever was going to be a fourth movie because as said the third made is most officially 1½ and not 3.
