| Thanks! ^^
I just realized he was the dad in Lizzie McGuire XD. I love how he asked his mom if he could keep the lamp like it was a pet! |

Yay! I think I'm gonna get it  Thanks for the link!
XD This whole thing is sooo funny--I love how the Princess hit him after she found out he lied. And the genies crack me up.
"Are you related?" "No! ...Maybe. The tests were inconclusive." "Ooh, pretty slave girl--ahhhhh!" |

| Hmmm, I've never heard of it. I did hear there was an anime adaptation of Beauty and the Beast though. I'll have to look into that. | |

| It is funny. I'm watching the BacBac one and I can't stop laughing "MY HANDS ARE LETHAL! I TOLD YOU!" Is it on DVD? |

| I adore that series and I love their take on Aladdin/how funny it is. Disney has influenced every version of this story '92, I swear. | |

| Sort of! Aladdin grabbed so much treasure on the way out that it buried the lamp deep in his pocket and weighed him down a bit, so it was harder to get out of the cave. Aladdin asked to be helped up so he can give the magician the lamp, but the magician insisted he got the lamp first and that Aladdin should get rid of the treasure. Aladdin obviously wasn't going to do that as it was his payment for going down there and these were pretty awesome jewels, so he tried to dig the lamp out of his pocket. He was unsuccessful and promised him he'd give him the lamp when he got above the surface if he would just help him up. The magician got pissed off he couldn't give him the lamp and was more worried about the treasure, so he closed up the cave with him in it. This story would be so much different if he would have just helped him up |

Isn't that what happens in the original story? I think the sorcerer needs anger management. |

| Have you ever seen the Arabian Nights tv special with Jason Scott Lee as Aladdin? He actually does argue with the magician as he thinks he's going to run off with the lamp if he hands it over first before being paid the other half of what he owes him for the trip down there. The magician won't help him up until he gets the lamp, and Aladdin won't give him the lamp until he gives him the money, so the magician gets upset and closes the cave with him still down there |

Jafar: Give me the lamp! Aladdin: First, help me walk up these ten steps! Jafar: First, give me the lamp! Then I'll help you up the steps! Aladdin: I can't give you the lamp because there are stairs between us! Jafar: Why can't you just meet me half way! Aladdin: NO! Jafar: You know what, even though I traveled all the way here to get that magical lamp that could change my life forever, it's not worth it! I'm going to lock you inside! Aladdin: No, wait! *runs up the steps* |

| It's so funny. After arguing back and forth, anime Aladdin decides to run up the stairs only when the magician is so annoyed at him that he magically closes the opening And he took his sweet time with that incantation, too, so Aladdin could've ran out of there at any moment!
I know that when animes get dubbed into English, they change a lot of the dialogue and they'll even change the characterization if they don't think the characters are good enough role models. Maybe the anime Aladdin had said "first give me my reward!" or "why should I give you this lamp, huh? Maybe I should keep it!" And they thought it made him look bad, so they changed it? Or maybe the translation is exactly correct, in which case, that would be hilarious! |

| That's true XD. I guess he was blocking the entrance? I loled at that part though, since I was thinking how funny it'd be if Aladdin had argued over that with Jafar |
