[Hourglass]

1. Aladdin is my favorite character because I like how he is a bit of a rebel, yet a hero at the same time. He's charming, and somehow cute.

2. I like "Prince Ali", "A Whole New World," and "Party In Agrabah" because Genie is just awesome during his songs. It's so creative, and Robin does the voice wonderfully. And, you can't be a fan of Aladdin unless you like the song A Whole New World. It's like a trademark of Aladdin.

3. I like the balcony scene in the original, and the end fight scene of the original alot. I also like the wedding scene at the end of KOT... BUNCHES. This one's hard... but I like action/romance... and this is a mixture of both.

4. "YOU'RE ONLY IN TROUBLE IF YOU GET CAUGHT!" has to be my absolute favorite because it applies to me 110%. I also like "Go jump off a balcony" because that's just awesome. There are so many by Genie, not worth quoting... but you get the picture.

1. Do you really need to ask?

2. I like Prince Ali Reprise and Friend Like Me.

3. "But your so old", "Ecstatic", "Don't we get a coffee break?"

4. I like the scene where Jafar, Sultan and Aladdin are all in the throne room, right after the Prince Ali song.

1. Jafar. Because...well, we'd be here awhile.

2. "Prince Ali (Reprise)" and "Prince Ali." And "Why Me?". And "Friend Like Me."

3. The same scene Vortex mentioned, and Jasmine seducing Jafar.

4. Anything said by Jafar, especially, "Tell me more about...myself." Also, Aladdin's "You're only in trouble if you get caught," and all of Jasmine's "seductive" back dialogue.

Can we say "one-track mind"? Yes, we can...

1.
- Aladdin - an all around great guy, handsome, awesome voice - need I go on?
- Iago - Hilarious. Got to love the parrot.
- Jasmine - I have her strong will and independent spirit. I also relate at times to her desire for freedom.

2.
- "Forget About Love" - it has my three favorite characters singing, it's catchy, and it's just always been a favorite.
If theme park music counts . . .
- Iago's "Friend Like Me" - I am addicted to this song. I love it.
- "To Be Free" - Absolutely beautiful.

3. "Anything with the parrot." The Dr. Camel scene, the balcony scene . . . the list goes on and on.

4.
- "There's a big surprise. That's incredi - I think I'm gonna have a heart attack and die from that surprise." - Iago - Great rant. Use it all the time.
- "You're only in trouble if you get caught." - Aladdin - It's our motto.
- "Oh wise Sultan, how may I serve you?" - Jasmine - Another one I use all of the time.
- "Why hello doctor - how are you?" - Jasmine - Camels make great docotors.
- "Because I have one thing you don't - a brain!" - Iago - This one comes in hand too.
- "Losers, weepers, and all that stuff." - Iago - I just love the way he says it.
- "I'm gonna do some evil!" - Iago - My absolute favorite cut line.

*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

2. Favorite song(s) and why?
Jeez, why did I ask such hard questions? 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 , 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 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. 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
"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
"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.

I love to talk...sue me

Je souhaite devenir le génie le plus puissant de la Terre !", "-Malgré tout le respet que je vous dois, votre pourriture... Est-ce qu'on ne pourrait pas attendre une VRAIE tempête ? -Épargne ta salive, Iago ! Plus vite, j'ai dis ! -Oui, Ô Puissance Démoniaque !"
In English : "Slave ! I make my third wish ! I wish to be an all-powerfull genie !", "-With all due respect, Your Rotteness... couldn't we just wait for a REAL storm ? -Save your breath, Iago. Faster. -Yes, Oh Mighty Evil One !", "You little fool. You thought you could defeat the most powerfull being on Earth ?", "But not for long..."

4 *princess jasmin your very...**wonderfull gloureous magnificent punctual**punctual* coz its dead funny

[Husse]

1. Genie. He's just...funny. I've always liked those kind of floppy, strange characters, (points to sig,) but pretty much all the movie characters are right up there. If there's a single one I really and truely don't like, it's Abis Mal...idiot.

2. Prince Ali...obviously. It's fun to sing...but I love "Un Mundo Ideal," the Spanish version of "Whole New World," it's actually prettier, IMO.

3. Scene? I don't know, pretty much any carpet escape scene, musical number, or Al and Genie buddy thing is my favorite, I actually thought the whole, "I can't wish you free," scene was the most non-sappy sentimental scene Disney had ever done.

4. I have at least a million...at least...but the ones that spring to mind?

"Not to have to go: POOF! Whaddaya need? POOF! Whaddaya need? POOF! Whaddaya need?" -Genie, Aladdin

"Don't they look lovely, June?"-Genie, Aladdin

"He has about the IQ of a boiled cabbage!" -Iago, Ice and Men

But I could spend all day on favorite quotes.

1. Favorite character(s) and why?
Aladdin. I love them all, I truly love them all but there’s no question about it. I just love the kind of person he is. Spontaneous, optimistic, the underdog with a heart of gold qualities. And I also love the interacting of the whole group as well (Al, Jas, Genie, Iago, Carpet, Abu). Oh and Mozenrath. Because wow.

2. Favorite song(s) and why?
Oh geez… I have to say A whole new world just because that’s THE song *points at AG* whatever she said! I like Prince Ali as well and One jump head reprise. As for the cut songs I’ve always had a thing for High Adventure and Why me.

3. Favorite scene(s) and why? The movie opening with arabian nights cause it just give me chills everytime And the ‘Genie, I can’t set you free’-scene. It shows some more depth to the characters (and that room is GORGEOUS).
From the series I really like how the Al/Jas-scenes are portrayed in Riders Redux.
And the KoT ending!! *Points at signature* that's why

4. Favorite line(s) and why?
From the first movie I think they’ve all been mentioned and I don’t know if I have a absolute favourite but those I can think of right now at least is:

- Mozenrath! So now you’re hiring common thieves to do your dirty work?
- Anything to squeezes a few more hours of the day.
- It’ll take more than just a few cheap tricks to beat us Mozenrath!
- Big words for someone behind bars in his own dungeon.
Aladdin and Mozenrath (duh)

Um… how come we don’t fire that guy? – Genie about Rasoul

I don’t wanna be stone. I wanna kiss the monkey! I want to live!!! - Iago
