09.10.08 HUGGY THE LION GETS HIS OWN BIOPIC
After the jump, there’s a YouTube video that you may or may not have seen – it’s gotten 13 million views. It’s about a couple guys who saw a sad looking lion cub for sale in Harrod’s. They bought it, named it Christian, and began to raise it, exercising it in the grounds of a nearby church until it got too big, and then reintroduced it to Africa. A year later, they wanted to visit, but were told Christian was wild and wouldn’t remember them. But of course he did. They hugged, someone filmed it, and everyone watched, shomiting with joy. (Meanwhile, Christian’s lion buddies secretly nicknamed him “Queen of the Jungle”)
The latest news is that Sony is in the process of acquiring the rights to a film about the story.
Why does everything that’s popular need to be a movie? The beauty of the YouTube video is that it tells a heartwarming story in two minutes. What are the other 88 minutes going to be 
about? Does Christian join a hip-hop dance crew and save the rec center? Battle an army of zombies? Get framed for murder and win his freedom in a car race? Team up with Chris Tucker and take down a drug cartel? Needs more Dracula Bear.

HUGGY THE LION GETS HIS OWN BIOPIC
So unfair, they didn’t let me hug little Timmy again after I sent him back to his home.
The first Hustler parody The Mighty Feklahr ever saw was a set of pics from a photoshoot where the girl was posing with a lion, the lion made funny faces, and the Hustler crew gave the lion funny captions.
So, in summary, whenever He sees lions, He thinks of fart jokes and pussy.
I FIXT ANTENNAS, TRY NOW!
When reached for comment Hangover Bear was quoted as saying “Uggghhhmmmmppphhhhhggggrrrrr-plur”. No further explanation was offered.
This reminds me of the Lions-Falcons game on Sunday.
Julius Caesar appreciates the irony of the lion’s name.
When asked about the rumors of this movie, Christian [roared].
I’ll rent the DVD hoping for an alternate ending.
VACUUM TUBES NAWT CHEAP TO REPLAYC!
Can I acquire the rights to the RoboPanda story? No, how about his prescription drugs?

U NEEDZ CONVERTER BOX BY FEBRARY 2009
I molested my nephew’s rottweiler when it was a puppy and when i saw her 2 years later she bit the shit out of me.
Damnit Fek, I was about to make a converter box joke [sighs].
Lucky Harrods didn’t have any sad looking black children that day.
WHAT YOU MEEN THIS THING ONLY GET THREE CHANNELS? WHAT ABOUT WHEN PRESIDENT COMES ON?
I SEE UR CAT HODE RAY TUBEZ
WHAT? THIS THING NO SWIVEL? PIECE OF SHITE!
Is CAT HODE related to Donk? By the way, did you see Donk got his own tag for COTW? I’m turning green (and not in a Hulk kind of way).
You motherfuckers. How did I not think of a LOL cat joke for this?
Strange to think a new generation of FilmDrunkards will think UHF refers to an obscure Weird Al Yankovic movie.
I did see that, it makes him wildly attractive. WILDLY!
I’d scoot around the room like a dog with an itchy heinie hole but that’s just not very dignified and I am nothing if not completely dignified.
Meanwhile, Muslim the Lion tore their shit up.
I bought a potbellied pig and named him Mohammed.[blows up]
It seems like a pain in the ass to take the lion back to Africa. I just flush my wife’s cats down the toilet when they get too big/annoying. Problem solved.
When reintroduced to the wild, Jewish the Lion complained about the heat.
Jew the Lion is a less heart-warming story because he exaggerates the number of poaching deaths and then doesn’t tip his waiter.
UR PLATE HAZ A FLAVR…LIKE COFFEE AND CIGRETTES…

I’m actually thinking I may prefer the Seltzer & Freebird version of this story.
Oh, and why in Kahless’ Laundry Satchel Of Crusty Socks is that kotal wearing a button that says, “HO”?
From now on i’d like to be known as Ace Berg. I’m gonna get some cards printed.
With a pussy that big, what else do you want her button to say?
The one member of the team not mentioned because the lion attacked him when reintroduced a year later? Mum-Ra.
A lion with two daddies would be the head of his own pride.
NITE RIDAR? REALY?
Thunder…
THUNDER…
THUNDER!!!
THUNDERCUNT! HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
MAI HAIRBALZ ON TV!
O HAI NO MOAR SNOOKR KTHX
Her button doesn’t say “HO”, it says “OH”. She just put it on while looking in the mirror while tripping on LSD.
Huggy the Lion 2: Golden Reciever
Film Synopsis: Huggy moves to Atlanta and becomes a star player for the Falcons. He breaks the single season record for most touchdowns by a ferocious feline before falling prey to a catnip addiction. His life continues the downward spiral as Huggy is caught running an illegal hyena-fighting ring with a meerkat and a warthog, both of whom occasionally break into song. Upon getting off with a “not actually a person” defense, Huggy returns home to find his wife Nala sleeping with her former lover Simba. He murders them both and then gets into a high speed chase with the police while driving his white Ford Bronco. Huggy once again gets a favorable decision in court as the jury is made up of zoophiles.
J-that is true for her ENTIRE image.
(By Kahless’ Beard! Please welcome, Feklahr, Klingon Captain of the Fashion Police!)
TURDEN FLASHBACK!
I’d hit it.
Spike Lee thinks this movie is an allegory for slavery and racism.
There must have been a hell of a lot more lions in Africa back in the 70’s because there’s no way he’s getting any bitches these days with a weak ass mane like that.
Gun to my head, the blond one is the guy who jerked him off as a cub. Just a hunch.
