Talk:The Return of Jafar

message: In the scene in which Jafar and the Genie fight, is the Genie overpowered because he is free and his powers have been weakened somewhat, or is it because in the previous movie, Jafar wisehd to be the "most powerful" genie?
:Well, yes I suppose it's because of that. Nobody wished him freedom, so that explains why he isn't free yet. And since he is a genie his main weakness is destroyed lamp. TheBlazikenMaster 07:33, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

message: I've restored the tag concerning the overlong plot summary.  When it was tagged on 14 January, the plot summary was just over 1250 words in length.  Just a month later, it's grown to just shy of 1400 words, and the tag has been removed.  The problem remains. --Tony 21:01, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

message: The movie garnered a 22% rating on Rotten Tomatoes...
Cool, I never knew Rotten Tomatoes was a popular website in 1994! :-) The Siskel and Ebert thumbs up review is true though, you can see it at their website. 207.179.154.164 (talk) 00:54, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

message: Should there be a music section? I know it wasn't Academy Award-winning material, but there are enough songs in the movie to have a section that lists the songs from the soundtrack. I would be bold and do it myself; however, I have no idea how to do a soundtrack section. If I don't get enough ambition to do it, could someone else tackle it? It should be pretty easy for someone that knows the format. 98.202.38.225 (talk) 22:52, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Music 

message: Should there be a Production section. I have collected information, but I am new to the editing, and would like some help with this.  Here are some facts and sources that I have found.  The following answers who produced/wrote the movie, when they produced it, where the movie was produced, and why it was produced:
This movie was made in 1994, two years after Disney had adapted the successful The Little Mermaid TV Series.  And just eighteen months after Aladdin debuted in theaters.
 
With the success of the original Aladdin, and The Little Mermaid TV Series as proof that spin offs of Disney animated features could be commercially successful, Disney assigned Tad Stones and Alan Zaslove to produce an Aladdin TV series as part of The Disney Afternoon on the Disney Channel.  While working on the Aladdin TV series, the writers faced the problem of trying to get Aladdin to be portrayed as a street rat, despite the original Aladdin movie ending with Aladdin presumably getting married and living in the royal palace.  The writers began writing a story to solve the issue, and the storyline eventually became the plot for Aladdin: The Return of Jafar.   
Aladdin: The Return of Jafar was the first direct to video sequel to an animated feature.   
The budget for a direct to video sequel is far less than a budget for a theatrical release.  The budget for Aladdin: The Return Of Jafar was about $3 to $3.5 million, compared to Disney's Aladdin, which has a $28 million budget.      The smaller budget also meant that less money could be spared on legal protection, which is why the genie does not make a single celebrity impersonation in the sequel.  
Additionally, the vast majority of the artwork and animation was handled by Walt Disney Animation Australia (now known as DisneyToon Studios), which would also be assigned the animation for the Aladdin TV series. 
Reference seven in this article doesn't say anything about The Return Of Jafar. Also, Peter Schneider isn't mentioned in any of the references & also, none of the references say the climax is animated in Japan.

thread_title: Edit request 

message: Since there are a lot of bad disney sequels, Aladdin: The Return of Jafar is a decent sequel in my opinion. Next year, Aladdin: The Return of Jafar will be twenty years old which means it'll be a retro classic film.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.137.249.117 (talk) 13:45, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
