I'm the one who originally made the point about ROJ being planned as a CBS special btw :wink: Anyway, I just wrote a paper on this fall semester so that's how I know, and I looked around and I happen to still have my source. It's on the entertainment weekly website, so you'll need to be a subscriber...

I believe the return of jafar was originally planned as a special for Cbs and they decided to release it on video to see what would happen. That's a little different than it being the first few episodes of the series strung together. They probably took return of jafar and cut it up to make the first...

Aladdin was fun, although I only played it on Sega Genesis. But I suppose it's more or less the same. The Jungle Book was also released on some consoles. Has anyone tried it? In a weird turn of events the Aladdin game on Sega Genesis was totally different than the SNES one. SNES was made by capcom ...

What you don't seem to understand about the PIXAR situation is that by leaving Disney, they will be getting double the money for the same amount of work. Pixar is doing the lion's share, while Disney is getting too much of their profits. By using the double their money statement out of context you a...

I bought Pirates of the Carribbean from Sam's and it had nice "long box" art as well. It also came with a free junior novelization of the movie.

Where are you guys getting Home on the Range merchandise from? The Disney Store? I looked around yesterday and couldn't find any. Did they make any action figures?

I saw it Friday @ 1 in the afternoon. The audience was a little less than 50% full of little kids and their mothers. Around half way through the movie the kids were dancing along with the music, especially during the "Home on the Range" reprise. Judging from my audience, middle age women R...

Yes they are, and that's my point. Most of the people here believe that a sequel is evil because it destroys the quality of the original. That is why I used the analogy - I was simply trying to point out that they are money makers for the studio so they COULD spent 90 million on a feature film. Wel...

I've read your posts. You're fond of analogies. That said you can't really compare how Walt Disney used television to Disney the company making DTV sequels. The difference is that Walt Disney's shows were of the HIGHEST quality (like being filmed in color before they were broadcast in color) unlike ...

Yeah, there's no question that the main character is going to be feautured on the cover, No one would ever argue that point. The thing is, the Genie was on the box, and they took him off and left Jasmine, Jafar, the Cave of Wonders, abu, and Iago. If anyone besides Aladdin deserves to be on the cove...

I would put the Genie on the cover over Jasmine any day. 1) He's a huge character. It's not like he's Abu or Iago, he serves as a catalyst for most of the drama and conflict in the movie. You can say the movie is about Aladdin because of its name, yeah sure I'll buy that, but there's no way that Jas...

Do you think the Genie's removal has anything to do with Robin Williams' anti-Eisner comments at the Academy Awards?
