What would happen to Hamlet and Claudius if they were to appear in a current court of law?
I guess it depends at what point in the play you wish this trial to happen. Early on, the only evidence against Claudius is the word of a ghost--not good evidence. Later Hamlet gets documentary proof that Claudius is conspiring against his life. Of course by that time, there is incontrovertible proof that Hamlet has murdered Polonius. My guess is that Claudius would be acquitted, but Hamlet would be found guilty.

What are some differences between scar and Claudius?
Scar is motivated primarily by his desire for the throne. In this respect, he most clearly resembles Richard in Richard III, a play which the Lion King resembles much more strongly than Hamlet. Claudius is also motivated by his genuine and caring love for his sister-in-law, who reciprocates his love. Scar is not. Claudius also proves to be an astute and wise king, as shown in his handling of the Fortinbras situation, to say nothing of his diplomacy in dealing with Laertes. He would like to get rid of Hamlet, who causes nothing but trouble for him, but Hamlet will not stay away (totally unlike Simba), and Claudius cannot overtly threaten him because of Gertrude, a factor which does not apply to Scar.

What role does Gertrude play in Hamlet?
She is a remarkably intelligent woman with a gift of terse observation. Her terseness makes her a great foil for Polonius. She also serves the function of preventing the poisoned wine from killing Hamlet. The closet scene is one of the most powerful in the play and brings out a number of important characteristics of Hamlet, as well as being the scene of the Polonius murder. She doesnt have much of a personality, she shows women are "easily led" and marrys her husbands brother right after he dies
