Rest in peace, Robin Williams. 30 years on, and NOBODY can top his zany Genie performance, it was hilarious in all of the best ways!
I thought Will Smith did a good job.
R.I.P also to Gilbert Gottfried whos voice the parrot. Pasted away in April of t his year.
@@TheDeadStretch I was sad that he passed he was so funny
R.I.P. GILBERT GOTTFRIED,who was an actual legendary stand up unlike Williams who was a notorious joke thief…he constantly was having to pay comics for getting caught stealing their act
you are in the comment section of every youtube video i watch ,it's crazy 😭😭😭😭😭
Fun fact: The voice actors for Jafar and Iago (Jonathan Freeman and Gilbert Gottfried) recorded all of their dialogue together. In a lot of the behind the scenes stuff you can see they had an absolute blast. I think that’s a lot of why the characters have such good chemistry and their banter is so entertaining.
Jonathan Freeman was also in the Aladdin Broadway musical, as Jafar of course.
Jonathan Freeman was also in the Aladdin Broadway musical, as Jafar of course.
@@morganspider-manmarvelfan6110 I saw the show in NY a few years ago. He did great!
And also that Johnathan Freeman is Ornithophobic, meaning afraid of birds.
According to Gilbert Gottfried, rest in peace, the mindset of the writers behind all of the Iago jokes was “when in doubt, hurt the bird.” That might be why Iago gets the brunt of physical comedy in the film.
The idea of Jafar marrying Jamine with their difference in age was so ridiculous that the sultan came right out of that trance - I wonder exactly how old Jafar was.
Not only that - Jasmine was only 14-16. So Jafar was… Blergh 😖
Honestly I think that happened a lot irl (marriage w/big age gaps)
omg right? I thought maybe he is just a few years younger then the Sultan and the Sultan looks old enough to be Jasmine's grandfather as he has white hair so he's 60's maybe? possibly older? so Jarfar is late 50's or early 60's? It's hard to know because he probably dyes his facial hair so he might even be older then the Sultan. Jasmine is said to be 15 yrs old (they changed her age to 16 now in current info but old info about this movie has her as 15) and Aladdin 18. Good thing Disney decided to start making her clothing a little less revealing on dolls and things like that years ago, if they had just made her 18 in the first place it would have been a little less weird to have her portrayed as she is.
@@123haninhk It's in the middle-east, it's normal there.
@@Niitroxyde Child marriage is still legal in the USA too, TBF.
31:00 According to the DVD commentary, Gilbert Gottfried actually improvised that whole bit, and it made Robin Williams crack up laughing.
Rest In Peace to both of them.
I always got a laugh out of the sound of Iago hitting his helmet sounding tapping a metal trash can
For a man who wasn't a singer, Robin Williams had pipes. He's will always be the best Genie.
If you notice during "A Whole New World", the animators had them visit locations we would later see in "Hercules" and then "Mulan". (Even though those movies hadn't even been made yet.)
Well, Hercules was the only one of these that were directed by John Musker and Ron Clements. So far, there hasn't been a Disney movie set in Ancient Egypt yet.
@mevb there was prince of Egypt but wasn't Disney of course
Scott Weinger, the voice of Aladdin, recorded this film when he was only 15 years old. He's 46 now and STILL recording things (like Kingdom Hearts) as Aladdin. That is just WILD to me. And his son _does not care_ that he's Aladdin. 😂
Seriously?! I mean Jodi Benson's kids are still impressed that their mom was Ariel in The Little Mermaid.
@@mevb I'm sure he appreciates it now that he's older, but the story was told by Scott when his son was still in his single digits with a response of "Okay...? Yeah I know." I guess he was raised with that just being normal. lol
I loved James laughing at all Robin Williams' lines. Robin is a legend.
And it's interesting to see these movies in such detail from an animation stand point.
Robin always had a way to get a smile on people’s face. Even his serious films while it wasn’t a comical smile it was reassuring and/or peaceful smile, like Good Will Hunting or Patch Adams.
I seen movie countless & it never gets old
Force shadowing the magic carpet 4:40
yep just like back to the future 4:45
I love Abu & Aladdin's reaction 15:17
I can no longer watch the ending when Genie says "No matter what anyone says, you'll always be a prince to me." Robin Williams was my all time favorite actor. Cried my eyes out when he died.
The art style has curly flair to the lines to accentuate the "arabian" aesthetic. They did a similar thing in Atlantis where there is a square spiral aesthetic and in Hercules where there is a swooping line aesthetic.
Don't forget Mulan with that stylized smoke!
A lot of the animation & especially character design was also inspired by Al Hirschfeld (he was an American caricaturist). Eric Goldberg, who specifically worked on Genie, is a fan of his.
''the facial hair, the way he talks, the eye shadow...''
Markers of a true villain LMAO. Gotta love Jafar. 💅 (super excited for y'alls reaction to Ursula in Little Mermaid too!)
Ursula's song is top, like all Classic Great Villains' Songs
When Robin William passed away the official Disney twitter just posted ''genie you're free'' and everytime I watch the movie now, that line is hitting me so hard with this new dept to it.
28:06 Now you need to see Hercules! You’ll see that area again with the Cupid statue in that movie! Also, have you see Disney’s Hunchback? That one is one of the darkest Disney movies and I miss when they weren’t afraid to go that dark. The villain in that one is a true villain, like just a straight up evil man, no flourishes and magic, just pure evil.
Oh that’s fun!!
Fun fact: The actor who voiced Jafar, Jonathan Freeman, ended up originating the same role in the Broadway production - he only just finished his run earlier this year!
Jafar: Tall, dark-colored clothes, mustache/goatee combo, haughty British accent, has a cobra-shaped staff with glowing eyes...nope, no red flags there.
Not at all lol. Totally would be friends with him
The outfit Genie wears at the end of the movie with the Hawaiian print shirt and Goofy hat is actually a callback to the ooooold old animation tour at MGM Studios that Robin did with Walter Cronkite in the late '80s called _Back to Neverland._ At the start of the tour film, Robin is wearing that same outfit. 😊
The fact that Ninetailedbrush saw Twisted before this, in addition to you cousin’s performance, is kinda iconic ngl. I also started revisiting animation classics as an adult and appreciate them so much more now!
R.I.P. Gilbert Gottfried! You are dearly missed. Two Aladdin stars taken from us waaay too soon.
Thanks for mentioning his name, bugging me as couldn't name the voices except Robin Williams
@@anitahargreaves9526 You’re welcome.
24:56 "I am not a prize to be won" I really like this line and it will prob stay with me for a while
Super dumb. You as a woman SHOULD see yourself as a prize. You’re a wonderful human being and any man should value/want you enough to be willing to compete for you.
R.I.P, Robin Williams! Everyone misses him.
37:06
James to Jafar: I don’t like your puns.
Jafar: I’m just getting warmed up! *blows fire out of mouth*
My dad and brother loves to quote Robin Williams. "That's right he can be taught" is something akin to "No shit Sherlock" in our house. Great movie and fantastic soundtrack
RIP, Robin Williams.
He will always be my Genie.
When I saw the Movie ,I wanted to name myself Aladdin but my parents refused.
When Robin Williams was in the recording booth, the sound recordist cracked up laughing at his jokes.
It's cool that you guys noticed the blue outlines in Jasmine's hair. I saw a post online that pointed it out & also noted that Esmeralda has grey outlines & Mulan has brown. So the animators do play around with that sort of thing.
Also, don't know if you knew this or not but the Genie was literally made with Williams in mind. The creators themselves came out & said that if Robin hadn't agreed to the role (which he almost didn't 'cause he was working on Ferngully around the same time Aladdin was being made) they weren't sure what they would've done from there or who to go with as back-up. So, they convinced Robin to take the role by animating Genie to some audio of Robin's own comedy bits.
Pixar did something similar with Tom Hanks to convince him to be Woody. They did a test animated sequence to Tom’s audio from Turner & Hooch
Can’t beat the comedy of the Genie, he’s one of the most iconic characters there is. Hats off to the late Robin Williams, he is dearly missed…
There's was actually suppose to be a scene where the merchant telling the story was actually the genie, but they cut it. I would've loved to see that.
If I recall correctly, it’s hinted at at the end of the third movie as the merchant returns for the final send off. But I could be misremembering; it’s only the first movie I can recite from memory since I watched it like 1000 times as a toddler...
100% agree, I miss actual bad guys!
And I've probably seen your cousin; we loved that live show!!
Back when disney wrote great characters all around and weren't afraid to include the darkest of subject matter, ah golden days I'd wish they'd go back to.
So the original lyrics for Arabian Nights were "Where they cut off your ear if they don't like your face. It's barbaric, but hey it's home" but was changed after several Arabic countries hated that, but they missed the point of how it is supposed to showcase a tough area and only the strong survive,
Jafar's design was modeled after Maleficent in Sleeping Beauty and to help match the design in the rest of the film the characters were given an Al Hirshfeld aesthetic to them,
Jafar's voice actor Johnathan Freeman has been the only one to voice him in all media whether direct to video, video games, toys, House of Mouse and still plays him in the Broadway show,
The directors cameo in the crowd as the two people on each side of Aladdin as they watch the procession of Prince Achmed to the palace,
An interesting detail is when Aladdin lies while as Prince Ali the feather on his turban will fall in front of his face,
One of the Toy figures that the Sultan is stacking is one of the Beast from Beuaty and the Beast,
The design on the carpet shows the story of the film,
One original plot element was supposed to reveal at the end of the merchant from the beginning showing up again and revealing to have been the Genie and the directors even confirmed that the merchant and the Genie are one in the same,
Aladdin's face was modeled after Tom Cruise,
At the end of the end credits you can hear the Genie say “You have been a fabulous audience! Tell you what, you’re the best audience in the whole world. Take care of yourselves. Good night Alice. Good night Agrabah. Adios Amigos.”
I watched this movie on VHS like a thousand times when I was 3; I can still recite it word-for-word from memory to this day. I remember learning the bit about the lyrics change when I was listening to the music CD as a kid, and the CD had the original lyrics on it and I’m like “that’s not the words, what?!” And it’s fascinated me since how things can change after release like that, and that there’s always evidence around of the earlier versions.
I feel it's kinda unfair for you to say "the Arabic countries just didn't get the point". The point was racist, dude. At the time that was the ONLY Arabic representation most of the world had, and the first thing they tell you is that it's backwards and barbaric. Especially given this film came out less than a decade before 9/11, which was the SECOND exposure to Arabic culture the world at large had - do you really not see how that could be harmful?
You don't get to decide FOR marginalised groups what they should or shouldn't be offended by. That's not your place, and it's not your right. You are not them. You haven't walked in their shoes. You don't know what it's like. Don't act like you know what they can handle.
@@LordofFullmetal First of all don’t put words in my mouth. Second the setting of the film is either set in ancient past or post apocalyptic future (as some theorize because of Genie’s references). Also you seem to forget the part of the film where after Jasmine gives the fruit to the kid her hand was going to be cut off. Pfft of course that isn’t a negative stereotype of that region at all is it?
Also I wasn’t saying what they should or shouldn’t be offended by. The lyrics are to set up it is a tough world to live in and only the strong survive (thus Aladdin’s story). How about you think things through before criticizing me.
I really love the Aladdin movie it's my very favorite Disney movie! My favorite characters are Jafar and Iago, Gilbert Gottfried who played Iago will be missed. He was an amazing and wonderful actor, his memory will never ever be forgotten.
The story of Aladdin actually being the seller’s way of getting you to buy the lamp is a long time fan theory and it is a really great strategy to get someone to buy the lamp. Some other animated Robin Williams movies to check out I recommend Ferngully the Last Rainforest and Happy Feet both have him singing in them.
Jasmine is one of my top three Disney Princesses
Despite not being a trained singer, Robin Williams slayed the role of The Genie. I love how he made the songs "Friend Like Me" and "Prince Ali" sound so jazzy and Broadway-esque. Rest in peace, Robin. We truly will never have a friend like you.
When the apple merchant was about to cut off Jasmine's hand off for stealing, you can see the many cut marks on the wood stall implying he has done that many many times before.
This is hands down my fav Disney Movie. Nothing else hits the same. I know most people like a lot of different ones, but this movie is Amazing. Robin Williams is elite. Liked Will Smith's take, wasn't terrible, but nothing could be better than Robin's performance here.
Alan Menken and Howard Ashman, the geniuses who brought us these iconic Disney songs. They always deserve a mention.
Aladdin is probably the most fun for me and it's my favourite for its colouring and creativity (as you guys mentioned). Animation wise it's probably my favourite because of the genie and all the movements especially for the magic carpet. And I think NTB is right...the carpet was 3D but with 2D tassels. Regarding NTB's comment about where the ending location was for "A Whole New World"...I'd say that was probably Italy? I'm pretty sure you can see scenery like that in Lake Como (where they filmed Naboo in Star Wars)...definitely worth seeing :) PS: When NTB called out the thief claiming to be the diamond in the rough and said "I feel like you're the rough" I was laughing for a good minute haha. Too funny 😂 Loved this reaction guys! FYI I would be interested in hearing NTB's opinion on Hercules as well :)
RIP Robin Williams one of his best performances of actor Career the can be only one genie! And RIP Gilbert Gottfried
One of Disney's greatest!
One of Robin's best performances!
Many believe that because of the comedy from Robin Williams he made the movie "more accessible" to adults along with their children who would definitely appreciate the humor and made the movie even more of a hit =)
Are you guys going to react to Disney’s Tarzan? It has really good animation, and not to mention the best 90s Disney soundtrack.
Yesss. The music is so good.
@@katwebbxo Yeah! Phil Collins!
I really miss Robin Williams. First time I watched him was in Hook. Fun fact, guys: the man at the first opening scene was the Genius; I saw that in a board story of the movie.
A little detail that I've noticed from re-watching this movie through reactions, is that Genie's muscular definition becomes more pronounced when he is carrying out wishes for Jafar, whereas when he's with Aladdin he has more of an "Dad bod" appearance...
A father figure vs. just another henchman
@@stephanniemorin Huh, guess so, good catch…😊
Eric Goldberg, who animated the genie, was the first character animator hired, and he heavily influenced the movie's whole art style with Al Hirschfeld's animation style, the S curve, and combined them with an Arabian style folktale look. The whole movie incorporated these styles into the look the movie has.
Frank Welker was Abu, Cave of Wonders and Rajah .... He does a lot of weird creature voices.
It's funny. When I was a kid I always wanted to be a Disney animator. Didn't come to be. But I too am amazed by the animation. Great Disney movie. Robin Williams is phenomenal. So sad he is no longer here. Curious, are you both still in school for animation or do you work for an animation company?
Yeah, we are in school and/or working on side projects
That's amazing. I love animation.
@@whitenoisereacts do you share any of your animation work anywhere? :)
This brings back so many childhood memories. There was a cartoon series after the movie and my whole family watched it together every Sunday morning. Sooo many jokes that only the parents understood... 😂
RIP Robin and Gilbert amazing actors ❤️
I absolutely loved the animation commentary!! So interesting! Would be great if you guys could do the second Aladdin as well. It has a drastic change in animation 👀
Well awesome!! Great to hear!
And the third one too, why not?
@@nobleconsejera5278 yeah the third one too!
"i'd be dying at the wind...not being able to see anything"
me going in the indiana johns rollercoaster in disneyland paris not being able to see anything after like 30 seconds hahahahahahah
this was such a funny and iconic movie to watch as a kid.
also i love that when they are flying over greece you see the little cupid statue...and then there's an almost identical one on hercules XDDD
Best Disney Duo directors ever. Hands down Everything they have made is a masterpiece. Also, you guys should do Disney's Dinosaur soon. It's highly underrated and it's animation will intrigue you.
RIP to both Robin Williams and Gilbert Gottifried for making every Aladdin movies ever made. They will be remembered forever
😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️
Too bad Robin Williams was NOT in the return of Jafar.
@@morganspider-manmarvelfan6110 Yeah. It wouldn't gotten better without him
@@kaylagaymon4873 You mean it would’ve
@@morganspider-manmarvelfan6110 Yeah. That's what I meant to say
@@kaylagaymon4873 Okay. Thanks for letting me know.
40:42 that was Howard Ashman's idea. He wrote the original treatment for Aladdin with songwriting partner Alan Menken and gave it to Disney when he was still working on Little Mermaid (he was lyricist and producer of Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast). Originally, it was a mix of the Aladdin story and 1940s style buddy comedies, which is where the music style comes in. They wrote a few songs for the treatment, three of which made it into the finished film: Arabian Nights, Friend Like Me, and Prince Ali. Some of the cut songs made it into the Broadway version. Sadly, he wasn't able to see it to completion because he passed away from struggles with AIDS in 1991. He's truly a legend
Apparently Howard Ashman wanted to focus on doing _Aladdin_ until both him and Alan Menken were approached to help reinvigorate and save the production of _Beauty and the Beast,_ which was going nowhere as a non-musical. Ashman, wishing to focus on _Aladdin_ and his health, reluctantly agreed to help with the music for _Beauty and the Beast_ It was at this time that his health began to decline due to his illness, regardless, he completed lyrical work on _Beauty and the Beast_ before his passing in March of 1991.
Following Ashman’s passing, Tim Rice was brought in as Lyricist to write new songs 4 of which ended up on the final film and these were "One Jump Ahead" (and its reprise), "A Whole New World", and Prince Ali (Reprise).
My brother and in saw this in the theater about 12 times when it came out. Robin Williams was a national treasure. Disney was riding high back then.
I remember that Eric Goldberg, the Genie's lead animator, credited Al Hirschfeld, the legendary caricature artist, as the main influence on the character design. I recommend you look his art up if you haven't, masterful work it was
I read somewhere that Robin recorded more than 50 hours or something for this movie, I don't know how, he was brilliant!
I will never forget. When this film came out in theaters I went with my little brother and my mom to see it. This is my mom‘s favorite Disney film too.♥️
to this day, i believe jafar is the ONLY disney princess villian to have a song twisted from the main protagonist’s theme. prince ali was already amazing but the reprise is sooo good!
I had a good laugh watching this. I'm so happy you guys are watching my all time favorite Disney movies. Good times🥰
I appreciate you noting the colors in particular - this movie's got my favorite palette in Disney
Fun fact: the magic cave and Abu were voiced by the same person, voice legend Frank Welker.
This is my top 5 Disney movies. Rip Robin Williams
My favorite Disney movie always bounces around this and Mulan. I think Mulan is a bit more rewatchable, but this movie, I think has so much going for it as well. I think my favorite aspect about this movie is the dialogue. This is easily up there as one of the most quotable Disney movies for me.
Also, fun fact: Robin Williams did so much improve when recording his lines that it actually prevented the movie from being nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay at the Acadamy Awards.
Now that you’ve seen this movie, and the musical at Disney, I would HIGHLY recommend watching Twisted: The Untold Story of a Royal Vizier.
It’s a Starkid musical (free on UA-cam). It tells the story of Aladdin through the eyes of Jafar and it’s SO GOOD. The music is excellent, the story telling is wonderful, and the jokes are hilarious 😂
We’ve watched that already
@@whitenoisereacts ah, I’m both happy and disappointed that you’ve already seen it 😂
@@meba444 luckily, they posted it on this channel!
One of my favorite Disney animated feature films as a child 💙🩵🤍💖
man, i love this movie. couldn't help my tears the moment Genie spoke because I loved Robin Williams so much. It's nice to see younger folks enjoying this classic
Fun fact: Aladdin is modeled after Tom Cruise and Princess Jasmine is partially modeled after Jennifer Connelly. They co-starred in a movie for the first time in Top Gun Maverick. You guys need to see it to see if you can spot the similarities 😃 (I always thought Aladdin looks like Tom Cruise since the first time I saw it when I was younger)
R.I.P Robin Williams, we will always remember your Genie performance
3:34 R.I.P Gilbert Gottfried
Fun Facts : 5:11 Those two people are Ron Clements and John Musker
21:50 In the animal tower on the left is the beast from "Beauty and the Beast"
If you want to see another underrated Disney classic, I recommend "Oliver and Company"
Love Oliver and Company 💕
I'm so glad you guys reacted to this! I really enjoyed it, particularly because you guys notices the details in the animations, and transitions! I'm not an animator, but I love appreciating these subtleties!
I think because Jasmine is a princess w wealth it's easy to think her life is better. But thinking abt her story, she's a 15 yr old w little choice in her future, no friends, and a very controlled environment w no understanding of her subjects. She's trying to survive in her own way w the hand she was dealt. She's expected to be satisfied w riches and a loveless marriage where she's outranked by the men in her life. But she doesn't back down. She seeks her own freedom and learns to use the power she hated to use against her enemies. I find that incredible despite the small role. She's smart and feisty, and wants to use her power to do good and provide for others. There's no bad characters in this film honestly. I love all of them, but I think a lot of ppl don't consider how different Jasmine was in comparison to the princesses before her. She wasn't always sweet, she wasn't waiting for a solution, and she could hold her own. I love that in later films and series, she actively engages in the battles, punching and using a whip. Proving her worth to sexist men. Having her own internal battles. Sorry I'm ranting I just rly love her character >_< Aladdin the Animated series needs to get on Disney+ pronto!
Rip Robin Williams. What an amazing 😉 performance
One of the greatest moments in my life was getting to work with Robin Williams. He really was a gentle soul.
Please consider the film "The Thief of Bagdad" from 1940; it heavily influenced Disney's Aladdin and is a visual delight!
Made that same suggestion before I saw your Comment! ... I Love 1942's "The Jungle Book" too!
@@jamesalexander5623 I haven't seen Jungle Book yet, but I probably should. Thief of Bagdad is just a special film, isn't it? One of my personal favorites
yeah, Disney's Aladdin is closer to "The Thief of Badgad" than the actual story of Aladdin. As usual Disney just does whatever they want regardless of the original story.
Yes it Robin Williams, May He Rest In Peace ( One Of My Comedians!)🤗😂🎶🙆
This is my favourite Disney movie which I know every single word too !!!
Genie is one of the best Disney characters ever !!!
When I was in high school in the ‘90’s I had a friend who’s dad worked for Disney. He never could talk about the projects he was working on until the movies were released. He was with the early CGI department. He worked on the lava sequence in Aladdin. I believe he mentioned that they’re goal was to blend the CGI with the regular animation so that it wasn’t obvious. I think he also worked on Beauty and the Beast but can’t remember for sure. I, also, had another friend whose sister was best friends with Jodi Benson who voiced Ariel. I never met her though.
I love Aladdin my favorite Disney movie and Jasmines my favorite princess. I love Robin Williams RIP he was my favorite actor and still is
Because of what a big success Aladdin was, it became the precursor to so many elements that are used in movies to this day, ESPECIALLY trying to replicate what Robin Williams did with the Genie (celebrity voices + funny/quippy side character)
my fav Disney Classic and my fav Disney Villain😍😍
I keep hoping you'll someday also do sequels, prequels and related animated series of the movies you react to
14:44
In this shot, the melting ape statue was animated with a series of hastily-crafted pencil illustrations, which were colored digitally. Unlike the characters, who were only drawn with contour lines (like most animated characters), they had to draw the shadows and textures on this ape statue, and animate them to move consistently in every consecutive frame.
🧐
If you want to see more of this, take a look at some animation by Richard Williams, such as A Christmas Carol (1971) or Raggedy Ann And Andy; A Musical Adventure.
The outfit that the Genie wears (including Goofy hat) is from Robin Williams appearance in the Disney-MGM (now Hollywood Studios) film Back to Never Land.
This came out the year I was born and has some of my favorite songs/cinematography as far as Disney movies go. I always loved the tiger shaped cave especially. Robin Williams was incredible as Genie. 💙
Btw totally agree about Jasmine having the best animal sidekick. 🐯
Did u know that jafar and Iago are the only 2 Disney villains 2 have their own laughing scene . Also if u notice the items around the sultan when he's talking , their gone as jafar and Iago start laughing
Fun fact: Apparently Robin only agreed to the film because he wanted to make something special for kids. He actually hated Disney - they tried to pull him off other projects he was doing, and they betrayed a deal he made them agree to (I believe the deal was that they weren't allowed to use his voice for merchandise, which they promptly ignored). That's why he doesn't reprise the role in a lot of the other Aladdin stuff. He was very upset that they used his voice to sell products - he said that was the one line he drew, and they crossed it.
"I met a hot beggar, Dad!" that killed me, too funny!
grew up watching this movie and love it
Fun Fact: In the original text of 1001 Arabian Nights, the whole story of Aladdin and the Lamp takes place in China. Of course, the author knew very little about China and its culture. Genies don't really exist in Chinese folklore. And many other Arabic cultural elements were projected onto the Chinese location (e.g., the name "Aladdin" - doesn't sound anywhere close to a Chinese name). After all, Arabia wouldn't seem all that magical and exotic if you lived there, but China would.
Aladdin is one of my top 3 favorite Disney classics, alongside Hercules and Atlantis, probably my favorite Disney classic franchise because I always loved the sequels and TV series growing up very much as well
I loved how Starkid made Twisted The Untold Story of a Royal Vazzier. That show was hilarious and made me go back and watch Aladdin both the movie and that show are great
4:56 I like how compassionate he is in this movie. It kind of breaks the stereotype that thieves only care for themselves. It's wrong, but their trying to survive
3:05 "I feel like you're the Rough" 😂
@15:33 the fire hands are my favorite part because it shows the cave has the ability to grab things inside it.
you learn alot about the cave and how its a living being from just the running though it on the carpet.
Haven't watched in decades, can only remember Robin Williams genie. Don't recognise the other voices? Great animation.
The character art style, the "Thick-n-thin lines" were inspired by caricaturist Al Hirschfeld (1903 - 2003), who was known for making caricatures of celebrities. The Genie's head animator Eric Goldberg (who later would animate Phil in Hercules, Louis in The Princess and The Frog, Maui's Tattoo in Moana/Vaina, Rabbit in Winnie-the-Pooh, being the Animator Director for Looney Tunes: Back in Action, animated the Goofy short How to Hook up your Home Theater and the Goofy short series How to Stay at Home on Disney+, as well as animating Paul McCartny's The Frog Song and Richard William's The Thief and The Cobbler, which shared similiarties with Aladdin even tough Williams started it in the 1960s and Disney's Aladdin was unaware of that movie during production, many of Williams animators ended up at Disney working on Aladdin) is a fan of Hirschfeld's art work and wanted to use that for Genie, which ended up being the films over-all art style for the characters (animator Andreas Deja deviated from it when he did Jafar). During the production of Fantasia 2000, when he directed the segment Rhapsody in Blue, he worked together with Hirschfeld with the overall art style of the segment.
Robin Williams did another animated movie around the same time called Fern Gully! Not Disney, but you guys should check it out if you haven’t already. I used to be obsessed with it as a kid 🧡
Robin Williams made this movie great!!!
I loved the Super Nintendo video game for this movie. The darn cave of wonders rug scene was my nemesis in the game. I’d always die hitting the rocks. Lol. Love Robin Williams, will always be the greatest. ❤
