Aladdin is a Superior Movie over The Lion King

FINAL ROUND. My opponent and I may make new arguments since there are no rules against it. Does Genie really overshadow the movie? Genie was just causing up more ruckus for more tension in that specific balcony scene. Exciting=audience likes it moreThe Lion King being emotionally powerful--yeah, but it's hard to pay attention to the plot when the main character is so sad and oblivious to his evil uncle's plot, and Pumba with Timon only help Scar's malicious plan.Jafar transforming himself? We dont' exactly see him transforming using his base magic. All we know is that he can hypnotize people, and even that rather badly.As for Scar's bad governance, this shows he's dumb and isn't really that sly. I mean, all he has to do is move to a different area. He'll still have his control, and everyone will still have to listen to him. He's just a stubborn idiot. 3. Action scenesMufasa's falling down is so sad it sets us up for inability to pay attention to any other moment of the movie. Up until the point that Mufasa actually communicates with Simba, we're left with ignorance by THE MAIN CHARACTER of this moment meant to be extremely emotional. Aladdin has many many action scenes, that combined together certainly beat up this scene that was simply dismissed by Simba. If kids care enough about Simba and agree with the song Hakuna Matata, then this tragic scene works towards nothing and no emotion is achieved. 1. Simba's character development? He just changes moods to the situation, he's really just the same lion he was before. He really doesn't learn anything. Aladdin's development? Aladdin chooses to lie a lot in the beginning, he lied to protect Jasmine, then continually lied to be smooth, and then hesitantly lied about being a disguised prince. Then he realizes that what he did wasn't really right and really attempts to tell Jasmine, but is distracted by that dumb parrot. He goes through a transformation and realizes that love really isn't worth telling a lie about his true self. If only Jasmine had been a tad bit slower, then Aladdin would have revealed his true self and shown a transformation. The fact is that Aladdin reveals half of his true self by showing that although his status was "trapped", he isn't psysically trapped due to the vast world outside. Aladdin is really a cool guy, he went through transformation throughout his song and during the morning, debating with himself until he finally made his decision to tell the truth. The audience understands that Aladdin really has changed throughout this whole ordeal and is ready to accept his true self and hope Jasmine loves the real Aladdin.2. Jasmine being grateful? Keep in mind that Jasmine also almost died from falling into sand. Rescue from slavery, saved her life, willing to reveal his true self and attempt to gain forgiveness...this all makes sense that Jasmine would forgive Aladdin.No, I'm just trying to make a comparison...perhaps father-and-son is not quite right. The two really have a special relationship. The Genie could technically just make him an average prince, but he choose to make him a prince so grand even the sultan hadn't seen a bigger parade. 3. Character analysis of Jasmine? Jasmine is intrigued by the way Aladdin is smart, not falling for her flirtations. Jasmine also experienced a Deja Vu with his "do you trust me?" as well as his trick with the apple. Jasmine logically came to the conclusion that Aladdin was Prince Ali, and she was correct. Jasmine then loves him because Aladdin shows a good heart by helping her get out of a tough situation and understanding that "people should be able to make their own choices". Aladdin's moral realization--I have mentioned this in my rebuttal to point one. See above. Genie's pop culture references--Oh God come on....A good explanation is that the Genie knows the past but cannot predict the future. Genie acted pretty surprised when Aladdin wished him out, thus, Genie probably cannot predict the future, unless of course the owner wishes for it. Genie functioning as the voice of reason--this adds more complication, and puts the burden on Aladdin to ultimately decide. This is not something for the Genie to decide, it isa choice reserved for Aladdin. The ending of Lion King--dangit, I was worried you'd mention the beginning. I have to concede this point, because The Lion King's beginning is simply too darn of a masterpiece. Therefore if the rest of arguments tied, then you win the debate. :/ 5. Light/dark meaning good/evil: exactly, Jafar is dark and Aladdin is light. Besides, this point is irrelevant to the debate. I only answered it for fun. As for the opening song changed, I'm glad it changed, but again it's not relevant to the debate. 6. Timon and Pumbaa saving Simba's life--and they also ruined and wasted a few years of it.Finally, the artistic goals--I have explained Aladdin's transformation and showing that honesty is truly important. As for The Lion King, Simba really grows into a strange lion. He was persuaded only by his father, and his father was being super ambiguous and never telling him that Scar killed him. I mean, couldn't have there been at least one point in these years where Simba was alone so that his father could tell him the important information? There's also another plot hole. After Mufasa dies, Scar tells the story that both Mufasa and Simba died in the stampede, but Simba appears alive and well later. Does not one lion remember that the two stories completely go against each other? Do they have terrible memory or something else? In addition, if this worked with logic, the real conversation would work like this:"Simba, admit you're the reason of your father's death!""Wait didn't you say the stampede was the reason of Mufasa's death?""Yes, but Simba was there during the stampede""How do you know he was there? Why was he there in the first place?""Uhhhhh....I told him to play and he went to that rock.""No...You told me to practice my roaring!!""Uhhhhhhh....what non-sense. This child is crazy.""THAT's non-sense. GET HIM!!!!"Plot holes make people wonder what happened in the movie and go away from the movie, making the movie bad. Thus, such plot holes ruin a movie like The Lion King, where logic is very important to display the morals and whether or not Simba really needed to go through so much pain.Finally, the monkey does not necessarily help. He is a useless character in reality. You could skip his part and go to Simba seeing his father in the clouds, and it would still make sense.IN CONCLUSION You may have convinced the voters/judges, but you have not convinced me. However, I did get a new perspective at my 2cd favorite movie as well as The Lion King. I believe I have shown enough evidence that Aladdin's moral was thoroughly displayed, while The Lion King has many plot holes that deviate from the movie and make certain parts unbelievable or completely mess them up.This was a tough, tough debate, but a good debate nevertheless.VOTE ME.
