Disney movies generally tend to avoid giving a lot of screen time to parental figures, save for the odd King Triton or Lord Zeus. But no ruler of the oceans or Greek god is more majestic than King Mufasa, Simba's dad in 1994's "The Lion King." Wise, regal, and voiced by the incomparable James Earl Jones, Mufasa gives off a general vibe of being an ancient, powerful being — constant and indestructible.
And that's why it was so shocking seeing Mufasa bite the dust in the first half of the movie. As king of the Pride Lands, Mufasa had dominion over all that he surveyed. But he also had a young impetuous son, Simba, and a scheming brother, Scar, who plotted in secret to usurp the throne and take Mufasa's place at the top of the food chain.
These factors eventually lead to Mufasa saving Simba from a herd of stampeding buffaloes. In the process, Mufasa is left dangling from a cliff above the raging beasts. Scar approaches Mufasa, who calls out to his brother for aid. In a moment that seared itself into the minds of Disney fans young and old, Scar grabbed Mufasa's paws and pushed him off the cliff, sending the king plunging into the stampede below ... down to his doom.
