As I recall, that scene was included when the movie was shown on network TV.

I too liked Aladdin.

But, I have to say that I was quite disappointed in a few of the backgrounds
in a few of the sequences.  Also, I was disappointed by MOST (all?) of the
songs in the film.

And lastly, I wonder just how well this film will stand the test of time.
Too me, it appears this film will NOT stand up for more than a few years
at best.

I know, this sounds like I didn't like the film.  But in fact, I enjoyed
it a lot.  I liked it slightly better than Beauty & The Beast.  But, I
did find a number of things I was annoyed by, and I mentioned them above.

I guess I was most annoyed by the backgrounds in a few sequences.  They
were SOOOO CHEAPLY done if you noticed.  (With one of them, I was wondering
even IF they used a background!)

Michael Eisner announced yesterday in a press conference that the
ocean-themed park originally planned for Long Beach will be built
in Tokyo.  He also said that the Westcot project is in serious
jeopardy because of what he termed the business-hostile policies
of California's state government.

I don't know whether this is just big, powerful company making
threats to get their way, or whether I should start crying for
the loss of Westcot already.  Living in California myself, I'm
starting to think that the best thing we could do for the economy
is purchase a small nuke from a former Soviet republic and plant
it underneath the legislature.

     I'm not trying to put down the Alladin soundtrack, but has anyone else
noticed that the instrumentals sound recycled?  There is about a 3 second
section of either "The Cave of Wonders" or "Alladin's Word" which sounds
EXACTLY like part of "When you wish apon a star."  I also swear that
some of the other instrumentals have pieces of "Beauty & the Beast" and
"Poor Unfortunate Souls" thrown in.  The "When you wish apon a star" part
is very distinct.  Or maybe I've just been working at Disneyland too long.

YES!!  The strollers can lie flat & my daughter who is now 4 has spent many hours sleeping
soundly in them from her first trip at 6mos to our last one in Aug.  They are also great for
piling camera bags or diaper bags on the cover.

We went to the Minnies Menehune breakfast at the Polynesion  and enjoyed it very much.  Also
the Admiral Goofy at The Beach Club was good.  I'd say it depends on who your families favorite
characters are.  I'd like to try the one at the Grand Floridian, but haven't gotten to it yet.

Not sure about that, there's supposed to be an Aladdin parade & the restaurant that was done
like a Beauty and the Beast soundstage was being renovated to an Aladin theme in August.

If it's still there the Beauty & the Beast stage show is FANTASTIC!

Wouldn't that wild carpet ride in Aladdin be a prime candidate for a
new Star Tours-type simulation ride?  It'd probably beat any stage
show (though BatB's was nice) or a parade.  Just a thought....

     Ah yes, that makes sense.  I haven't watched a movie on TV in ages,
     as they are inevitably ruined by commercialitus interruptus and
     censorship of so-called language and violence.  Thanks for the
     reminder.

     I distinctly remember BAMBI being broadcast on TV years ago (late
     1970s, I think), and onscreen was that famous message "Edited For
     Television."  THAT'S why I don't watch TV movies anymore -
     although last year's broadcast of E.T.: THE EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL
     (and probably this year's, too, on Thanksgiving night) was
     uncensored.

There is one of the finest animation books out in the last few years, its called
Enchanted Drawings: the history of animation
I dont remember the author, but it was in my local village library 
and it's great as far as animation goes, with at least 1/3 of the book devoted
to disney...

Also, the name of the actor that did Pooh, and Kaa et al is Sterling Holloway.

101 Dalmations was the first movie to use the xerographic process, in 1959.

	This joke refers to SEX. egad. That is about as dirty as
it gets, unless you consider poking fun at Disney icons to be a
sin.

	So, if the concept of sex is offensive to you, don't read
the rest. I've heard a joke about Mickey and court for quite a
while now, and while I'm not sure if this is the specific one
from Playboy, it is cute anyway:


Judge to Mickey Mouse: I'm sorry, but I cannot grant you a
divorce just because Minnie is crazy.

    The scene was included when the TV network (I believe it was CBS) showed
_Roger Rabbit_ a few months ago.  It is NOT in the original movie or the video.

A question for those of you with the Aladdin soundtrack:  Have you figured
out what order the songs _SHOULD_ go in?  Like the BatB soundtrack, the
majority of the instrumental-only pieces are added after the vocal tracks,
although some of the instrumentals are in their proper places.

I'd like to make a tape for my car that is in the right order.  If anyone
figures out where they go, please post!

The title is "Marathon" (I think).  I saw it as part of an Animation

According to the guy I talked to up at Disney, the ballroom scene was hand

stuff through a computer modem:  on the Fidonet system available from many
BBS's is the Disney echo, frequented by Disney enthusiasts and employees
alike.  Fidonet is available in the U.S. as well as internationally.

Could it be that the rec.arts.disney board was set up by Disney executives??
Are they monitoring our postings?  Surreptitiously gaining insight into the

What is @walt.disney.com?  More interesting than the JFK conspiracy theories,
eh?
