hey people!!!! ive noticed that TLK 1 is alot like the plat Hamlet and Tlk 2 is like Romeo and Juliet! is it possible that Disney stole the idea?

Also little less noticed:
While the original Lion King movie was based on "Hamlet," this film(Lion King 1 1/2) clearly takes its inspiration from the play "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead" which features the events of "Hamlet" through the eyes of two minor characters.

So yes, all three TLK movies have stories borrowed from somewhere.
