Which "Aladdin" jokes do YOU now understand as an adult? Let us know below, and be sure to also check out our video of the Top 10 Inappropriate Jokes in Disney Movies You Missed as a Kid - ua-cam.com/video/e0IbzDeYIxk/v-deo.html
@@jsutton0010 Quite true. I've noticed that issue with the claims about scenes on OTHER videos on this channel before too. I really think they were reaching pretty far for some of them.
I understood them as a kid. I don't actually think it's that big a deal to put jokes like these in kids movies. Kids hear stuff from their parents, other adults, and older kids all the time. And the jokes make kids feel like they're in on an inside joke, and like they're being taken more seriously. I always heard much worse at school than these "adult" jokes in the kids movies I watched growing up. Don't understand why everyone freaks out so much when they see things like this.
Didn’t even know Gilbert died until reading this comment. Gonna miss that guy he played in several of my favorite childhood movies and cartoon series-Fairly Oddparents, Problem Child 1-3 (2 is my favorite), and of course Doctor Dolittle.
@@blackroselostindarkness5643 True to that but what if Disney Jr, Would make some sort of early morning game show staring Disney Sidekicks and Reformed Henchmen with Genie and Iago being the hosts
As a aspiring writer, I can say setting up jokes for children and adults is very, very hard. Sure they had Williams, a master at making kids laugh while making their parents shake their heads and smile. But this double joke theme runs through all modern "kid" movies. When it's well done, it is so well done.
How can you leave out Genie's line, after saving Aladdin's life, "Oh Al, I'm getting kind of fond of you kid....not that I want to pick out curtains or anything."
Right?! That was literally the first thing I thought of when I saw this video! When I first saw Aladdin as a kid, my dad laughed so hard at that line and I had no idea why until years later.
I had the supreme pleasure of watching Aladdin at El Capitán Theater in Hollywood when it was released in 1992. What was so “supreme” about that you may ask? Ahhhh, you see…..I caught the late night (might’ve been the midnight) showing with a couple of my good friends. Since it was so late, we were watching it with the college crowd. You can imagine how rowdy it was. There was a live stage show before the movie. A gal dressed as Ariel came out and sang “Part of Your World.” It’s been 30 years and I can still hear her sing: “Walking around on those, what do you call ‘em?” Entire male section of the theater audience: “FEET!” Best audience participation in a song that I’ve ever heard! 😂 Then the movie starts. We laughed so hard! But as soon as the Genie came out….OMG forget it. We roared with laughter! It’s like we were at a comedy club and Robin Williams was on stage. Btw, HELL YEAH we got that Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade reference. From the first glimpse of the street vendor to the “Made you look” at the end. It was freaking magical!
Originally the plan was to reveal that the peddler was the genie in disguise. Both characters are voiced by Robin Williams, both have the same style of beard, and both are the only characters with only four fingers on each hand.
I even said when I first saw it on VHS when I was a kid "What is this the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade?" how ironic that's what Disney was doing a parody of during the Prince Ali song.
Way back in late 92 early 93 my youngest son was 2 and my oldest was 6 every morning, after dropping the oldest at school, as soon as we walked back in the door, my youngest would run to the living room screaming for his Aladdin movie EVERY DAMN MORNING!! There was a time I could repeat back to you that movie line for line it was so burned into my brain!! Had to actually replace the DVD at one point it got so wore out!!
don't you mean VHS since DVDs weren't a thing (in the US at least) until 97? I did a similar thing with The Lion King. I was 9 when it came out and got the VHS for christmas the previous year. Every day after school I would put in the VHS and watch it again. When it re-released back in what was it 2010(?) I was at work and it was playing in our electronic section. I was changing out the registers with one of the other supervisors and my favorite scene came on and I started repeating it verbatim. My friend stopped what he was doing and just stared at me. I hadn't seen the movies in about ten years but could still repeat it. If your son still watched it after he was 2 I bet you he can still repeat parts of the movie even now!!
@@lizzalkula376 and yes, I can still mimic most of Aladdin and Cinderella, which was my oldest son's favorite when he was around 2. I would be in the kitchen fixing dinner and as soon as I'd hear him do his deep belly laugh I knew we were at the part where Jack the mouse had just kicked Lucifer the cats elbow out from under his chin causing Lucifer to face plant into his saucer of milk, it was his favorite part! Miss my little guys!
I liked Robin Williams’ impression of Jack Nicholson (from The Witches of Eastwick)’s Guy in the Red Suit telling Aladdin, “OK, Sparky- Here’s the deal...” best in the original Aladdin best.
The Lifestyles of the Rich and Magical I understood as a kid and I thought it was hilarious "And your name is?" "I'm Thor." "You're Thor?" "Well, it hurth."
KoT resonates with me even to this day cause a lot of what Aladdin experienced not having a father growing up I sort of went thru. Imagine the kicker that he's alive in your adult years, only to be on the wrong side of the law. Uncanny how art imitates life.
I really thought this was the thing they were gonna point out for this scene. The move itself isn’t even legal and in the case of it being legal it wouldn’t even be mate so I don’t see how it is clever
When I actually sat down to watch King of Thieves, I managed to catch on to some of the Genie's more obvious impressions, like Forrest Gump and Rocky Balboa, but even then I had the biggest, stupidest grin on my face
they still make a good chunk of adult jokes in their movies, guess they think: Well if Parents "have to" watch it atleast make sure they laugh from time to time too. Aslong as it isn't too obvious it's a good tactic & everyone is happy with that
My mom, sister, and I got tickets to an early screening of the movie and I remember the seller's song about Agrabah at the very beginning being different than what we know of now. It used to say "Where they cut off your ear if they don't like your face, it's barbaric, but hey, it's home." The line was deemed offensive and was changed before the theatrical release. I hadn't heard about any of that taking place and so was really surprised that it had been changed when I saw it again in the theater with friends. The version of the song we know is just fine without it, quite frankly.
Interesting! For the latin american release, they actually kept the line you mention (where they mutilate you if they don't like you. How barbaric!, but hey, it's home.), but they censored it for the remastered version (Blu-Ray, I think).
@@jengentry06 Yeah! It's been said that dubbing studios get movies way before release date so they can work on them, so they probably got the version you watched and, by the time they decided to change it for theatrical release, the translation was already done for latin america. It's just so cool that you mentioned this, because once I finally watched it in english (as a grown up), I could never find anything remotely close to that "mutilation" part, which was totally weird for me. Now this explains everything. EDIT: OMG!!! I found it! If you search on youtube for "Arabian Nights - Origianl Soundtrack Release - Aladdin" (yeah, typo included), it has the original line!
The fact that they put ms doubtfire into aladdin is (for me) a super cool easter egg because ms doubtfire was one my childhood fav. I dont think my fam even knows this exists.
Right after Aladdin's intro he jumps off the roof and zip lines through some laundry, making a woman slam her shutters. If you read her lips, she clearly mouths the word "Shit!" And there's the infamous balcony whisper, since deleted from reprints. I don't care how much Disney denies it. I heard it, and my mother heard it, and she didn't even know about the urban legend before she did.
The "brothel ladies" WERE not prostitutes, nor was the woman a "Madam". They were merely the ladies in a rich man's Harem which translates to the women's quarters as men and women did not mix past a certain age even in private households. Women were called to their husband's quarters for marital relations. Islam like Judaism and Christianity specifically prohibits prostitution.
I think people a) don’t give enough credit to children and b) actually understood more than remember. Even though we got the undertones of a joke, it didn’t mean as much to us as kids because we weren’t jaded by life yet.
I got most of them as a kid, having older parents and grandparents (like knowing Groucho Marx existed), and the horse with two rear ends always made me cackle. The brothel gals I thought were sisters he kept trying to flirt with and that was their angry mother with the broom. As for all the parodies, I knew what they were, just not who they were supposed to be, thanks to a ton of Looney Tunes & Warner Bros shows. And the Macy's Parade was super obvious to me, but my mom used to put it on every year, so there's that. lol
You missed one in aladdin where he calls jafar a two faced son of a jackal. Jakals are in the canine family so he pretty much called him a two faced son of a batch. LOL
I first saw this movie as an adult and always took those ladies to be a harem rather than a brothel, meaning they're somebody's wives (and the penalty for messing about with them would be severe.) Surely a brothel is a bit risqué for Disney, even today?
People seem to forget two important things 1. many animated movies directed primarily at kids *purposefully* put in veiled (or semi-veiled) jokes for the adults watching the movie with their children. It's so the adults have something to see as well. and 2. [at least this applies to me] if you were at least 5 by 1990 you more than likely grew up watching Looney Tunes and other older cartoons that would have been made for 1950's children a *LOT* of them would characterize famous adult actors even back then (again many times down on purpose for the adults that might watch the cartoons with their children) and because these people were famous and popular. A kid might not completely understand the joke, but they could at least understand that it's *supposed* to be funny. For example Abbot and Costello - my memory is always with the two cartoon cats, one's a slimmer cat and one's a heavier set stouter cat with the later uttering a phrase that Costello used : "I'm a baaad boy"
10 is a slight stretch or at least open to interpretation; seeing as the brothel ladies don't recognize him as Prince Ali and as Aladdin the girls seem annoyed in a flirty way (as they were annoyed for him passing them up regularly perhaps). Also it never ceases to impress me that the voice of Homer Simpson does an uncanny Robin Williams impression of Genie. I never knew as a kid and only found out as an adult.
That the story of Aladdin was only told so the lamp can be sold makes a lot of sense really clever made. I knew a few things from that video but not all very interesting & made me laugh a lot, guess I have to rewatch the movies again soon :p
Boy do I feel old. I first saw Robin Williams on Happy Days long before Aladdin. I didn’t mind watching Aladdin over and over again with my daughter 😊.
a lot of these things were common in cartoons of the time though... everyone in the village always knows each other... parades have large balloons... etc...
I agree that this was funny to watch and don't worry you didn't ruin our childhoods, we did that, by growing up, even tho many still act like children.
the ONLY reason Aladdin survived Jafat trying to kill him, is because Abu bites his arm at the last minute! Not only that HE'S THE ONE WHO STOLE THE LAMP!!!
Aladdin is a classic of My childhood, but i didn't knew it had si many adult jokes, anywho , thanks Ms Mojo , and happy friday as well. See You soon for more , take care and God bless You.
Yes genie was written for Robin Williams but he almost didn't do the movie because he hated the first draft of the script. Then the studio said well we'll let you do whatever you want if you'll do it and then he said yes.
I'm not really sure anyone was missing the great chess position...as there isn't one. Either Rug is cheating by moving his king like that or he just doesn't have one on the board....
Look for the voice actor from Iceland could Laddi, he voiced the Geinie in Aladdin. The only actor in Iceland too been asked by Disney to voice for a caragtor in Mulan because he is thet good. As good as Robin Williams. P.s he voiced all the caragtors in the Smurfs cartoons in Iceland.
.... if you think the peddler concocted the story of Aladdin to sell the lamp you aren't paying nearly enough attention to his voice. He's the Genie doing an accent, and the Genie is the one that breaks the 4th wall a lot. Infomercial style as you pointed out, and not to mention I don't think fries were common in the era Aladdin is set in.
Also the chess move scene has a glaring problem. Carpet has no king. He uses his queen to move across the board and knock out Genies queen, but he only has 3 pawns and a bishop/queen.
There's a debate as to whether having celebrities do voice work instead of seasoned voice actors makes movies better or worse. Aladdin would not have become the iconic film it is without Robin Williams.
My Mom asked me for months to imitate the Genie 🧞♂️. To this day I can still remember the lines. Thanks Mom! By the way, number three was the most memorable.
I think I just saw that as genie was saying “I’m losing to a rug”, it was modeled after Rodney Dangerfield, it’s almost as if he was gonna say : I got no respect at all, right after that line

As a youngster, the Genie's line about how the Earth wasn't supposed to shake until the Honeymoon went RIGHT over my head, but seems obvious now!

Everyone : Disney produce only kids movies

There are so many things with Jasmine they got away with
When was that?
I don't remember jasmine pole dancing
I think you're thinking of Esmeralda in The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
Jasmine polevaulted but never pole danced
The chess scene was also significant because Genie mimicks Rodney Dangerfield, who most kids wouldn't be familiar with.
Why doesn't this video point out more of these things?

4:59 - "HEHE HEHE, Hey, Butthead, there's this horse with two a-holes. HEHE HEHE."
Fun fact: Jonathan Brandis was an evil villain on the cartoon series.
I agree that this was funny to watch and don't worry you didn't ruin our childhoods,
we did that, by growing up, even tho many still act like children.
My favorite animated Disney movie
the ONLY reason Aladdin survived Jafat trying to kill him, is because Abu bites his arm at the last minute! Not only that HE'S THE ONE WHO STOLE THE LAMP!!!
Yep, thank you, Stone of Destiny.
The "horse with two rear-ends" comment remains my FAVORITE joke to this day. (8/29/2022)
It’s my dads favorite
Aladdin is a classic of My childhood, but i didn't knew it had si many adult jokes, anywho , thanks Ms Mojo , and happy friday as well. See You soon for more , take care and God bless You.
Yes genie was written for Robin Williams but he almost didn't do the movie because he hated the first draft of the script. Then the studio said well we'll let you do whatever you want if you'll do it and then he said yes.
Haha I'm sorry to say I did understand all these references as a child 🤣 not a culture big on censorship when reading above ones age was expected
Same here. Many of these didn’t pass by me, I got their drift.
Yeah, I got a lot of the jokes too mainly cause I recognized a lot of genie's impersonations. They landed better that way
"I'm rather fond of you, kid. Not that I want to pick out curtains or anything."
I'm not really sure anyone was missing the great chess position...as there isn't one. Either Rug is cheating by moving his king like that or he just doesn't have one on the board....
Why is no one talking about the "Do I insult your mother" joke
I never gotten these jokes as a kid in the early 2000s I remember that this movie aired on boomerang on cartoon network. 🤣🤣
Look for the voice actor from Iceland could Laddi, he voiced the Geinie in Aladdin. The only actor in Iceland too been asked by Disney to voice for a caragtor in Mulan because he is thet good. As good as Robin Williams. P.s he voiced all the caragtors in the Smurfs cartoons in Iceland.
.... if you think the peddler concocted the story of Aladdin to sell the lamp you aren't paying nearly enough attention to his voice. He's the Genie doing an accent, and the Genie is the one that breaks the 4th wall a lot. Infomercial style as you pointed out, and not to mention I don't think fries were common in the era Aladdin is set in.
Also the chess move scene has a glaring problem. Carpet has no king. He uses his queen to move across the board and knock out Genies queen, but he only has 3 pawns and a bishop/queen.
I knew about all of these. I was an adult when the movie came out, but I still loved it!
“I thought the earthquake doesn’t start after the honeymoon” thing
Rodney Dangerfield nod when genie lost the chess game. 😂😂🤣

There's a debate as to whether having celebrities do voice work instead of seasoned voice actors makes movies better or worse. Aladdin would not have become the iconic film it is without Robin Williams.
That's the reason that I hated Return of Jafar. Robin Williams wasn't Genie. I also hated Mulan 2 because Eddie Murphy wasn't Mushu.
I definitely noticed the reference to the Macy’s Parade when I was a kid.
Disney has no boundaries no rules
That’s half the fun of watching Disney movies as an adult is the adult jokes.
6:38 “welcome. What are ya buyin?”
Brothel in Alladin
It’s been confirmed that the peddler was the genie.
My Mom asked me for months to imitate the Genie 🧞♂️. To this day I can still remember the lines. Thanks Mom! By the way, number three was the most memorable.
I still don't understand the chess reference...
As far as I can tell...there isn't one. Carpet either illegally moves his king or that's his queen and he doesn't have a King on the board...
Lol the Sultan's self burn was something I got as a kid too....
I miss Robin Williams so much 😭
I definitely understood a bunch of these references as a child.
And the beastiality reference totally gets missed once again.
4:06 And Carl Banks' Scrooge McDuck comics.
I like how the film calls it a "rug" and the narrator calls it "carpet," when those two items are vastly different from each other.
It would be a Rug on the Floor...but the flying kind are Magic Carpets...
A rug is a smaller carpet
I think I just saw that as genie was saying “I’m losing to a rug”, it was modeled after Rodney Dangerfield, it’s almost as if he was gonna say : I got no respect at all, right after that line
I thought that he was going to say that right after "I'm losing to a rug."
