Although the argument that Scar's mind was simply poisoned by the cobra's venom sounds like a legitimate excuse as to why he was so evil, there's still the fact that he's clearly enjoying every vile thing he does way too much for that idea to hold much weight. Its more like the venom enhanced his more negative traits than outright corrupted him (after all, he was totally okay with taking over the Pride Lands with the Strange Lion before he was betrayed and poisoned, and, assuming that it didn't take affect instantly, he killed the Lion and Cobra ruthlessly before the venom truly started to screw with him).

On an unrelated note, David Oyeloyo has one hell of a singing voice. Like, damn. I need to watch more of this show.
