Do I have to watch the Aurora one to find out? <br /> <br />Jasmine starts telling the story then is like "Why don’t I just show you?" Like… How do you plan on doing that <br /> <br />Hey look the horses from AWNW <br /> <br />RAJAH <333 <br /> <br />Look at her having duties and stuff. They're not super meaningful, but it's better than literally not being allowed to leave the palace. <br /> <br />CARPET WITH THE CHECKLIST <br /> <br />Music isn’t bad <br /> <br />Jasmine doesn’t like the peacock aesthetic? Yikes @ Disney selling her in all those peacock outfits then... ? <br /> <br />Wait, she can name all 40 thieves? So is this after KoT? Then why is Iago here? <br /> <br />Lea Salonga doesn’t sound like Jasmine anymore. <br /> <br />She getting raised up on those peacock wings like Simba in I Just Can’t Wait to be King <br /> <br />Aw Sultan kept his wife’s horse. <br /> <br />Crazy Gazim now? Wasn't it Crazy Hakim in 1992? So is it a knock-off, or under new management? <img src="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" /> <br /> <br />Omg confirmed. Sultan loves his wife. <br /> <br />Omg with this classroom scene... PTSD from student teaching hitting me up <br /> <br />Jasmine taking a bath with her crown, jewelry, hair, and makeup all still styled. <br /> <br />Hakim is like, "If I lose this job, my family will go hungry." Like... His family only survives because of child labor? <br /> <br />Omg Sultan visits Sahara EVERY DAY to bring him an apple!!! <br /> <br />This interrogation sequence with Iago is cute. <br /> <br />Okay I think I’m officially getting early series vibes because Iago doesn’t understand Abu. Also Jasmine wanting to do something meaningful but isn't allowed to, which is pretty early series. <br /> <br />Omg why did it take so long to guess that Abu is saying "FIGS" when this whole thing started with FIGS!! <br /> <br />Is Abu refusing to go flying because he "hates flying and is afraid of heights?" More early series! <br /> <br />Who is on board to ship Sultan and Aneesa? <br /> <br />Okay I’m a little bit bored, and I’m trying to decide if it’s because the risk isn’t really that bad or if it’s because there’s no Aladdin. I always bitch when there’s Aladdin without Jasmine, so I wonder if their dynamic specifically is what I enjoy. <br /> <br />It’s occurring to me that, since Sahara hasn’t let anybody ride him since Jasmine’s mother died, he hasn't been getting exercise for what I'm assuming is years? Maybe it’s more humane to let him go free tbh. A band of wild horses happily rode by like 5 minutes ago <img src="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" /> <br /> <br />The sun is setting, and the Sultan still hasn't been to Shara? Aneesa must be VERY good with her hands... <br /> <br />Here I am getting choked up at Sultan getting choked up. <br /> <br />"You just have to be strong and never give up"… and be really great at horse wrangling. <img src="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" /> <br /> <br />I'm going with very early series on this one. Juuuuust far enough that Jasmine and Iago are gal-pals and that Jasmine is comfortably allowed out. But early enough that she hasn't apparently done anything all that action-packed herself. Also Iago not understanding Abu is early. That 40 thieves line must just prove their infamy pre-KoT. Maybe it's even pre-Cassim joining them?</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>AladdinsGenie</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Sun Nov 22, 2020 6:38 pm<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">I always thought this was a weird episode to end the series on, but the line "welcome to Agrabah" seems fitting for a last line, though.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Meesh</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Tue Nov 17, 2020 1:19 am<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody"><span style="font-size: 18px; line-height: normal"><span style="text-decoration: underline"><span style="font-weight: bold">Re: The Great Rift</span></span></span> <br /> <br /><img src="https://66.media.tumblr.com/bd0ae81806f2514f3afd0d7d2c4bbb8c/7929fb3f1a2762fc-08/s540x810/3c9443e5d4b441391d83c72cba802c5e9cb57e5e.jpg" border="0" /> <br />This painting is KILLING ME LITERALLY WTF IS THAT <img src="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" /> <br /> <br /></span> <table width="90%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"> <tr> <td><span class="genmed"><b>AladdinsGenie wrote:</b></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="quote"><img src="https://66.media.tumblr.com/e86c330b0c1e854596e746a88690997d/7929fb3f1a2762fc-73/s540x810/8efd75b2c33de4a2d5aba26b3db48f08ec78a6be.jpg" border="0" /> <br />a mood</td> </tr> </table> <span class="postbody"> <br /> <br /><img src="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" /><img src="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" /><img src="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" /><img src="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" /> <br /></span> <table width="90%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"> <tr> <td><span class="genmed"><b>AladdinsGenie wrote:</b></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="quote"> <br />Nice to see the Ends of the Earth have defrosted </td> </tr> </table> <span class="postbody"> <br />Global warming!! <img src="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Very Happy" border="0" /> <br /> <br />------------------------------ <br /> <br />Isn't this the one where the stones are people and you think the queen is a good guy but she’s actually bad ? <br />POST-WATCH EDIT: I got this backwards apparently <img src="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" /> <br /> <br />I'm getting early Aladdin out of this... He's smug about this expedition as if it were one of the first <br /> <br />That must have been some sandstorm! Geez. <br /> <br /><span style="font-weight: bold">Iago: </span>Hey, what's that hawk doing out in the middle of nowhere land? I hope he's not hungry for parrot! Follow me, Abu. I smell riches. <br /><span style="font-weight: bold">Me: </span>There was literally NO transition between those two thoughts. Also, that's like Iago described in 5 seconds. <br /> <br />Literally all he had to do was press a button to open it... ?? <br /> <br />This guy sounds like Minos... It is. It's Minos. <br /> <br />Yo this is a toxic relationship. Get out of there King Zahbar!! <br /> <br /><span style="font-weight: bold">Sultan: </span>Agrabah is my greatest treasure. <br />... Yikes I've seen that episode, and Jasmine is standing RIGHT THERE. <br /> <br /><span style="font-weight: bold">Aladdin: </span>I think we'd better put these in a safe place, locked up tight. <br /><span style="font-weight: bold">Me: </span>You're gonna leave them wide open in the treasury aren't y- ... Yup and there it is. <br /> <br /><span style="font-weight: bold">Iago:</span> Al, it's the hawk! Only bigger!And he's got a girlfriend now. <br /><span style="font-weight: bold">Me:</span> Why are we jumping right to girlfriend? ... I mean you're not wrong, but why jump straight to bestiality? <br /> <br />Ahhh yes the Genie-being-easily-defeated-so-we-know-that-the-opponent-is-powerful trope. <br /> <br />Aladdin telling them to go home and celebrate... *facepalm* <br /> <br />Okay Iago just gave 2 screams and is just flying in place. The writing for Iago SUCCCCCKS in this episode. <br /> <br />Ah yes, another coup where the villain disposes of the 2 royals with no interference by the guards or anything and are immediately rulers of the kingdom. No questions asked. <br /> <br />Aw, I hate when Jasmine gets written out of episodes. <br /> <br />Adding "purple gem" to the list of things Jasmine has been turned into. <br /> <br /><span style="font-weight: bold">Iago:</span> Now I see why they call this the <span style="font-style: italic">Great</span> Rift! It's a <span style="font-style: italic">doozy</span>! <br />... Seriously who is writing Iago in this episode? <br /> <br />Aladdin's "It's my fault, but I have to make it right" is giving me 1992 vibes. <br /> <br />Yo literally this hawk burst out of a cage like 5 minutes ago. Why is he drowning crying for help in the sand rn. <br />... Also giving me Jasmine-drowning-in-the-hourglass-vibes. <br /> <br />Amazed that both Iago and Aladdin thought that throwing an emerald on the ground would break it... <br /> <br />This episode's premise has some potential, but the writing was just horrible. The queen had a lot of potential for depth - someone who is really dope but struggling with a spell making her evil? Gems with power that only works when the holders work together and fight their anger? A man-turned-hawk who waited 10,000 years to awaken his love? Rulers awaken after 10,000 years of spelldom to find their kingdom is a ruined relic?

Is that at the end of "As the Netherworld Turns"? <br /> <br />I'm still kind of confused about the after-lives in this world. Is the netherworld separate from just regular old after-life? Because Hades/River Styx is also a thing. And Aladdin will die someday... <br /> <br /><span style="font-weight: bold">Iago:</span> Al, did we have to get up this early?

I'm curious if any of them are recycled from other eps... but not curious enough to go check. <br /> <br />Okay... did the shadows miss the part where <span style="font-style: italic">they</span> die too? I feel like I would stress that if I were the gang. <br /> <br />I'm confused by Carpet's speed in the series. Because sometimes he's so fast he can out-fly the sprites and levitate a whole-ass palace. But other eps he's caught fairly easily. <br /> <br />Okay we need to watch this with an Ayam pun drinking game. <br /> <br />I feel like they could all be super protected by hanging out under some intense light <img src="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" border="0" /></span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Dark Rose</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Sat Oct 24, 2020 12:29 am<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody"></span> <table width="90%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"> <tr> <td><span class="genmed"><b>Meesh wrote:</b></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="quote"><span style="font-size: 18px; line-height: normal"><span style="text-decoration: underline"><span style="font-weight: bold">The Ethereal</span></span></span> <br /> <br />Ahhh yes the one where they actually kill a main character.

Anybody? <br /> <br />My man Aladdin (and Carpet) flying right in front of the killer mouth to throw the spear in!! <br /> <br /><span style="font-weight: bold">Omar</span>: From now on, free apples for you and your monkey! <br /><span style="font-weight: bold">Me</span>: Dang I should have been paying attention to whether or not Aladdin and Abu steal from Omar for the chronology!! <img src="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" /> <br /> <br />They like actually kill Jasmine.

THE DRAMA <br /> <br />When I was a kid, I was all like "wow this ep is so deep" and now I'm like "wtf she is destroying an entire people because their leaders weren't reading her mind" also "wow she is destroying innocent 'great' people because they... are underrated ??" <br /> <br /><span style="font-weight: bold">Ethereal</span>: Remember the lesson learned here today. Cherish your people, or, should you forget, I shall return. <br />... Sooo is this why Agrabah doesn't exist anymore? Or are we sticking with an alternate universe theory where Agrabah is the center of the world, and everybody magical and non-magical prospers together? <img src="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" border="0" /> <br />...

We keep dancing around the reason now since I guess they want the princesses to be more relatable to everyone regardless of gender. <br /> <br />I think Disney got it in their heads that their 90s heroines were too...I don't want to say "strong" but mirroring real life in a way that made them harder to relate to them individually, so the nitty gritty forces influencing what these girls had to deal with were swapped with subtle antagonism when I think transparency is key to understanding where some of the princesses are coming from in their stories (especially since we don't water down those forces when it comes to the heroes.
