Disney and Disney Pixar favorites are about to go through what The Lion King did so successfully: They’re getting a 3D makeover and being rereleased on the big screen. This news is hardly a surprise, given the fact that The Lion King 3D has cracked the top 10 highest grossing movies of all time. But, why this is a win for audiences is because the 3D technology used in The Lion King 3D was exquisite and honestly made us yearn for more Disney delights in 3D.
