Still in crazy depressive/transformative period in my life. I thought it best to revisit this. Aladdin was the first film I ever saw in a movie theater and it is probably one of, if not the most, important movies to me. i felt really comforting to get back into this world and with these characters. The colors and the animation style always sucked me in ever since I was a child and it still does to this day. It still amazes me how well the character of the magic carpet is constructed. Without a word the carpet has so much personality. It is so expertly crarfted. Robin William as the Genie is also very important to me. I just love him in this. I realized later that impressions he does in this of Jack Nicholson and William F. Buckley taught me about them before I even knew who they were. I am also really proud of Disney making such a Middle Eastern film in 1992. It is way ahead of its time. Also the songs and score are so good. Gotta love Alan Menken.
