Aladdin Central Messageboard

When did you first go see Aladdin? Was it in the theatre? Or did you wait until it can out on Home Video? What did you think of it the first time you saw it?

December 13th, 1992, for my sister's birthday. It was in the cheap theater by that point. I think since then they turned that theater into a church...

I saw it in theaters when I was 6. I can't remember what date, though.

I saw it on home video when I was 4, and I loved it!

In the theater. I was 2 years old... and yet... I became oddly obsessed with it. I have a video of me getting it for Christmas when it came out on video... Good times, gooooood tiiimes! Laughing

My neighbor (who is an adult) says that, when she watched in the theater, there was a kid who cried when Jafar turned into a snake.

I honestly don't really remember the first time I saw Aladdin... but I do remember it was on home video.

I must say, I appriciate the movie much more now than I did then. Very Happy

I saw it in theatres when I was in the second grade. And I remember going back to school and having a debate about Genie lamps. Laughing

You've piqued my curiosity - what kinda debate did you have?

It had to do with the color of lamps and the nature of Genies as reflected by it. For second graders, I think it was actually pretty intellectual, though my parents say that I can argue anything, so I shouldn't be surprised. Laughing

In theater in January 1994, I think it was the 14th. It was most intense theater experience in my life.

I saw it at movie theatre in either Oklahoma or New Mexico. All I knew was that by "A Whole New World", I was singing aloud.

My mom and a friend took me to see it when I was little. I think I was 3... about to turn 4. I remember going to see it a few times in the theaters. Back then, whenever a movie came out on video, we would get it. I didn't start watching Aladdin alot until I was 6 I believe...

It's been all downhill from there.

'all this for a loaf of bread?!'

The first time I saw Aladdin... I am not too sure. I can remember when Return of Jafar came out. I was three then. I was given Aladdin VHS when I was two or three but I couldn't remember when it came out. I had just turned one then...
