The Genie (Aladdin)

The Genie is the tritagonist of Disney's 1992 animated feature film, Aladdin. He is a comedic, larger-than-life spirit.
== Why He "Rocks" (pun intended) ==
# Thanks to his incredible performance in the film, he became a breakout character, and skyrocketed on the charts.
# He was played by a wonderful, wonderful man named Robin Williams himself, and his performance is entertaining.
# None of his dialogue was scripted; all of it was completely improvised, which is very impressive of his performer.
# He's a genie that bends magic on a regular basis, he's missing a marble or two, which makes his relentless over-the-top personality nothing short of amazing.
# He has a habit of breaking the fourth wall, which later inspired more characters to do the same, some examples being Pinkie Pie and Nepeta Leijon
# Despite being an extremely powerful being, he still contains some realism, as he has limitations.
# He's a great and memorable singer.
#Most genies jack up people's wishes, and make them wish they never met them, but not this guy!
