were studing the crucible for our prescribed text and was thinking the lion king would be good to relate it to, for being accepted and challenged?

Disney films are usually not recommended by markers, as they often encourage superficial analysis of the AOS. However, if you wish to continue wish the Lion King, areas to discuss in relation to The Crucible:

The ties to the family (Simba to the Lions: John and his family)

Values and Morals (The need to return to Pride Rock: Religious beliefs and its influence)

Hierarchy (Mufusa, Scar, Simba: In the court, and in the family, head of household)

Social Status (Outcasts, Simba & Hyenas: John's pride and importance in town)

yeah i can see your point, i done skrzynecki poetry but from my experience the people who done such disney/pixar films answer ended slightly after stating the obvious, and anything intelligent usually could not come out of it. Also as its it very well known it could work against you, ie you cant either manipulate the truth to make your own opinion valid or just make stuff up. I did the shawshank redemption, because some imagery was shared with skrzynecki poetry. i know its no super intelligent text, but you can almost talk about anything. im guessing ypou have made the mistake of telling others what text you are thinking of, meaning that others will do that too. The lion king makes sense, but you may look retarded if you try to explain a complex concept with timone and pumba, lol

It would work, but it depends on your level of analysis as to whether it works well.
