Aladdin

5 out of 5

"Just like Aladdin bitch, get you anything you ask for"

-Tupac

 

The songs in this movie are really catchy.  It's a

funny movie.  Robin Williams really acts like a

maniac- who knows what the deal was behind the

scenes.  This guy MUST have been wilding.

I could picture him entering his house through the wall

like Kool-Aid Man, or through the window like some

wild ass swashbuckler from God-knows-where.  He

was probably really funny in that recording studio.  He

probably had a tough time driving his car when he was

acting so crazy as that genie.  He is the definition of

wild.  He's the man, and I have true respect for him.

 

 

The fact that I decided to check this

movie out when I was in Junior High says a lot

about the power of this movie, and the power of

big time Disney animated blockbuster musicals.  I can't

tell if it was just because I was younger and around

people who were up on that stuff, but it

seems like Disney animated movies used to be

really big achievements that all sorts of different

people talked about.  It's not like that anymore. 

Everything is made with computers, and that

Disney name is not at the center anymore (even

though all those companies are owned by three

mega corporations).  It is Pixar's time to shine and

release classics, and that is wonderful, but it was

pretty funny when these Disney songs would really

be all over the place during the summer.  This

period of my life was sort of messed up, but it all

worked out in the end.
