How many burning corpses are there in the Lion King? How many of Simba’s friends die on screen? Does anyone get tortured in the Lion King?

Yet all of this stuff warranted a PG rating because the rating board, like most people, including George Lucas, understood that these were movies for children and that the violence was pretty minimal.
