[quote="AladdinsGenie"]*bows to the genius that is Nik Ranieri*

Heh, didn't answer my own questions. Silly me. I'm keeping the series out of this because we'd be here forever.

1. Favorite character(s) and why? 
Movies: I love them all but my number ones are Aladdin and Genie. It was just Genie for a long time and Al was second, but he moved up as of a few months ago. I like them because there's waaaay more to their characters and pasts than I think people realize and see because you have to dig a little deeper for it. They're not just the hero and the sidekick; they have depth to their characters that I find rather amusing. I'm not going into a long detailed description about that depth, but just know that they are my favorites :D

2. Favorite song(s) and why? 
Jeez, why did I ask such hard questions? :lol: I love them all for various reasons that I won't go into depth unless I'm asked. But for actual meaningful substance-"A Whole New World", which for me is an accomplishment because I usually gag during the lovey dubby moments of a movie :lol:, but this isn't a typical love song. The song focused less about falling in love and not pushing those "We love each other, and this is how much" lines, but more about keeping with the movie's theme of freedom and being set free, which in turn brought out them falling in love. *hugs Alan Menken and Tim 'da Rim' Rice for their musical genius* That, and everytime I listen to it-no matter who is singing it-it gives me that early ninties vibe before everything got so digital and high tech and I had no worries in life. Oh, how I wish I could go back.

3. Favorite scene(s) and why? 
Movies: 1st-The balcony and pagoda scenes in the first movie owns my soul. Basically anytime Aladdin forgets he's not Aladdin, but "Prince Ali" and has to BS his way back into his lie I love because it's so funny. I also love the scene with him and Jasmine in his hovel because it's so smooth, the escape from the CoW because it's awesome, and the ending in general-It makes me cry, which is saying a lot :( Yes, I am a dork.
2nd-Any Jafar Abis Mal interaction is priceless :lol: And the whole segment where Jafar poses as Jasmine and sentences Aladdin to death sealed Jafar as being my favorite villain. Any villain that can psychologically mess around with a hero's head and then physically crush them while they are down is greatness. *also hugs Hades and Hook* There's some things magic can't do. For everything else: there's mind games.
3rd-From the scene where Aladdin decides to breaks Cassim out of jail till the end of the cavern scene with Cassim and Aladdin: *drool* The men of that family just needs to stay ticked off at all times. Built up angst is a good look for them. :lol: But I just love the interaction between the two of them. They were apart for years yet have so many traits that are the same. I love that segment to pieces. So much depth and greatness. The Code Red segment rocks my socks, and of course, you have to love the ending to KOT. It's the greatest Disney scene ever because it's so not a Disney scene ;)

4. Favorite line(s) and why?
Movies: 1st-"You're only in trouble if you get caught" -because it's classic and my life theme
"It broke."-It's handy in situations where stuff breaks...like my chair a few days ago.
"Ecstatic."-Greatest understatement ever :lol: 
"No matter what anybody says, you'll always be a prince to me."-Gets me everytime. Once again, lots of depth.
2nd-"That's it! The madness is spreading!"-Speaks for itself
There's more that I like but I can't think of anything at the moment.
3rd-"I won't do what he did. I won't run away."-I do love angst and character development in one line.
"Oh, no. It's a rug. You sweep dirt under it, you don't fly on it."-I wish Cassim would have said "Carpet, let's move" at least once :lol:
"You are most definitely Aladdin's father."-Jasmine understand those charm skills run in the family. They graduated from Charmskool.
And the line "Oh, no! It's the dredded Ozzie Nelson!" cracks me up everytime. :lol:

I love to talk...sue me  :lol:[/quote]
