Neither are Broadway's finest, but I had to choose, I would go with The Lion King. If anything, it's not great set design and costumes and a couple of moving parts (minus the annoying kids in Act 1). Beauty and the Beast does feel like it belongs at Disney amusement park... This is coming from a girl that's lived near Disneyland nearly all her life. LOL! :)

It's been a while since I've seen either one, but I enjoyed Beauty and the Beast much more. It was one of my favorite childhood movies, and I have to admit that I like the story, even if it isn't very profound. The Lion King was beautiful, but aside from the visual aspect, I was a little underwhelmed. Maybe because so many people loved it, and I had such high expectations.

I really liked the Disney movie of The Lion King, then I saw it on Broadway and didn't really like it as much. I definitly like Beauty and the Beast a lot better. Then again, that is my school musical this year so I'm kind of biased.

Never liked Beauty and the Beast...Lion King was much more entertaining-beautiful production.

Jenny, totally understand...sad, but I get it. I felt the same way about Wicked. I thought it was going to be so great. After the first act ended, I kinda sat in my seat thinking kinda diappointed, and thought it was ok, but it could have been so much better. That's why I try not to get too excited going into a show or else you totally get disappointed.

Beauty and the Beast definitely. It has a superior score in my opinion, and I do not think the story is childish at all. There are themes of tolerance and compromise, among others, that I think speaks to people of all ages...

Sorry sounds a bit preachey, but seriously. It's better.
