Rama's Exile and Bharata
I really liked how much everyone supports Rama; they were all willing to go live in the forest with him and I thought that was super special! I also admire Bharata's humble character; he really hoped Rama would be king and is even staying out of Ayodhya until Rama comes back. I was hoping they would all revolt and through Kaikeyi out or something, but they are all good people so that did not happen :-) like I said in my last reading notes, I might go with my Lion King theme, where I would have Rama replace Simba and go out into the forest for years and have all the other "lions" be upset and be under the whole of someone they don't want. I could put a twist on it and make Bharata take the place of Scar, so in that case he would be an evil person instead of a loving, humble one.
In the Forest
I liked all the different people that Ram, Lakshman, and Sita met along their journey. I could replace some of them with Hanuman, Timon, and Pumbaa to reiterate the Lion King theme. I could them tell stories of how they got there and other things that come later in the reading. I think this would be a great story because there are many characters in the Ramayan, so I could combine all my story ideas and have Nagini from the Harry Potter series come in. I could also have characters from Doctor Who come in and be rakshasas that Ram defeats. Soorpanaka's character could be replaced by a rakshasa or even Nagini if I decide to make her an evil character in the series. Or this could be where Nagini comes in and Ram convinces her to be his companion instead of Lord Voldemort's (just like Dumbledore convinced Snape to be on his side rather than a Death Eater). Just some ideas I'm throwing out there.
Soorpanaka and Ravana
There is a lot that goes on in this part of the Ramayana. Ravana comes up with an elaborate plan to capture Sita, although she clearly is not interested in him. There are many stories like this one, so it might not be too hard to come up with a story plot for this part. If I do combine Doctor Who and Lion King, I could have the Doctor chase some of the rakshasas that got away from him last time, and they all end up in the forest. When Ram and Lakshman get tricked by Mareecha and Ravana takes Sita, the Doctor could even help in bringing her back, while Ram and Lakshman can help the Doctor defeat the alien rakshasas in return.
