It was a Lion King movie. Of course people paid to go see it. Box office profits (tickets sold) do not equate to an enjoyable film.
I've never heard of anyone IRL or online claim that film was worthy of their time.
We all got catfished on that one but I'm not surprised. You cannot remake a classic. It will work only 1 time out of 50. The odds are never good.
Jungle Book was an exception, imo.
