This article contains spoilers for The USA Movies | Adult Movies OnlineLion King, if you've never seen it, if that's possible.
The first teaser trailer for Disney's live action version of The Lion Kingdropped on Thursday, and one particular scene has dredged up painful memories we'd long pushed to the bottom of our hearts.
James Earl Jones' iconic voice returns as the king of the pridelands and Simba's father, Mufasa, in director Jon Favreau's forthcoming film.
SEE ALSO: 'The Lion King' teaser includes *that* iconic moment on Pride RockJones' resonant tones echo over one particular moment in the trailer, which, at around the 0:30 mark, shows the stampede scene.
You know the scene. In Disney's original 1994 animated film, it's the brutal turning point for Simba's journey, as an evil play from his diabolical uncle Scar results in Mufasa's tragic death.
It's one of the most devastating movie scenes from many of our childhoods, watching Simba nestle into his father's mane, tug at his ear, and try to wake him as the dust settles. As a six-year-old, I cried for days, inconsolable and unable to get Simba's words out of my tiny head.
"Get up, we've got to go home."
And this moment, folks on Twitter pointed out, might be so much more real in Favreau's live action film.
