I just recently watched Is This Thing On? starring Will Arnett, where talks to his kids about a Chinese lion that he thinks was a dragon, and where he also performs Standup comedy.

I was already thinking about BoJack due to that connection, and now the cross-references have apparently come full circle.

Comments like these are so silly.

There are no people to put a red circle around.

They eat lettuce, too, and as everyone knows, real lions are obligate carnivores.

u/uwillnotgotospace 14h ago

The lion does not concern himself with obligation.

These are lions. Dragons are the long ones with a bunch of people holding them up with sticks.

So that's how they sneak into the movies with only having to buy 1 ticket!

u/reverandglass 10h ago

Of course it's not a real lion! A real lion in a shopping mall would be in TK Maxx fighting young mothers for the shoe deals.

I was going to say, that lion wearing a human suit wearing a big weird pink beast costume is really talented!

u/Lumpzor 15h ago

Is it because it's a dragon instead?

u/Ancient-Carrot8447 15h ago

No, lion dances are different from dragon dances. This is a lion. Dude was joking. (Maybe you were too, but I've seen so many people call this a dragon and I hate it.)

If it's not from the Dragon region of China, it's just a sparkling lizard.
