[quote="AladdinsGenie"][quote="Calluna"][quote="AladdinsGenie"]And I don't know how to explain it, but it bugs me that Aladdin goes from street rat that did something to heroic to heroic street rat in the series...if that makes any sense.[/quote]Do you mean that he was accepted by everyone too easily?[/quote] Eeehhh, I guess you could say that :lol:. I guess he takes over that "hero" sterotype and job too quickly. "You are now the greatest hero in all of Agrabah. Now do your job". It feels like there is something missing to me even if he did save the royals and Agrabah. And I wouldn't go as far as saying Genie was a "clown"...more like a dork :lol:. I can see what he is talking about, though. His personality itself gets a little clownish when he was a lot smoother than that in the first movie. I mean, part of Genie IS Robin, so of course you are going to lose that part of the character that person brings to it if they aren't playing it, but it's just not the fact that Robin didn't play him. If you purposely TRY to write Genie as funny, you just end up annoying people :P[/quote]

He loves her too much to go all that far, but if you piss him off enough he'll go that far.

I can see both of them doing that just to get under the other's skin. They can't keep their hands off each other as it is, so what better way to piss the other person off than to do that with someone else. They KNOW what ticks the other person off and Jasmine is fully aware that the number one way to piss him off is to make him jealous. She's the same way, though. She tosses her cookies whenever she sees him with another girl like Sadira, but I think that whole complex is a lot deeper than it shows. (I'll save that for another day <img src="images/smiles/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" border="0" />) <br /> <br />When he said "Jasmine's my girl" it's one of those things where he's been thinking it and knows it, but he's never said it out-loud because there has never been a need to put a staple on her such as "This is mine-back off". He felt threatened by Uncouthma, so he felt as if he has to make sure it was understood that no matter what she says and how out of hand this "game" gets, at the end of the day she was his. I guess that's more of a male to male thing that I'll never understand <img src="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" /> Part of me even wants to say that she even wanted him to say that because he always takes her for granted, including that she is going to be with him and she is "his". I'd say this episode is fairly early in the series just because of that reason. <br /> <br />And even though all the suitors were gone and they were engaged, I think part of him still feels a little insecure because he isn't the typical choice for a princess and could be replaced if needed at any time, really. He's possessive and everyone knows it, including Jasmine. (I don't blame him, though. All that crap he had to go through in the movie to win her? I'd be like that too <img src="images/smiles/icon_lol.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" />) So I believe she was fully aware of what she was doing and vice versa with him.

I just don't see her as one to try and do that. She is more of a seductress... not a flirt. <br />Aladdin was also very out of sorts in that episode.
