Wildcard Wednesday Aladdin

 

‘Disney’s 31st animated classic’ 1992.


It is a strong but/yet strange start to this film. The plot becomes apparent very quickly and it is a good one.


It is nice to begin with that Jasmine (Voiced by Linda Larkin) shows some power, revealing who she actually is, it is a pity that it was overruled.


Ok, we get the message as to why we just touch the Lamp and none of the other treasure. I like the true Disney norm/form ‘Magic carpet’, I want to say character because it almost is. I hate that he is being duped, although, I do now like that it isn’t to late, but this part is a bit over the top, however, this is meant for children and the majority would love all the, what I can only describe as ‘Pomp and ceremony’, in keeping with the plot of this film. I agree, tell the ‘Truth’ and yes, be ‘Yourself’.


‘A Whole New World’ (by Alan Menken and Tim Rice) This song alone is worth it, buying and seeing this film, amazing and yes, ‘Magical’. Yes, the truth and that’s not it. Well the truth is out a little, I personally believe overly dramatic, but hey, it gets the job done.


A beautiful film overall.


On a recent trip to New York we managed to book a ticket to see Aladdin at the New Amsterdam theatre on Broadway on Saturday the 5th February 2022 at 8pm.


This show, I don’t know about A Whole New World but this show is a whole new level of excellent show. The special effects, how they operated the stage were all amazing. Well worth seeing if you are planning a trip to New York and have the time.


To see this show check on the ticket information or the website as to what is required for a Covid safe entry.


Thank you for reading

  I thought the same. So, where is she? If Lovejoy (Ian McShane) says ‘He will get one’ I suppose he will. I suppose, I would say, it depends on what you paid for a painting a nice ‘Fake’ at a fake price is fine, but if you pay a genuine price tag, then you could be out of pocket/at a loss. A mother is a mother so that covers all. A chain is forming. I am glad he was ‘Word perfect’ With a compliment to Lovejoy, not that ‘Old’ then. All these rhetorical questions. These are amusing to hear. ‘George?’ so funny. A coincidence, the same outfit, oh dear. Sweet.  Oh, for the best, Ibelieve. ‘Closed’. That is good. Oh that, well at least the deal was done.

Fun Friday Love Knots Lovejoy

  It is nice to hear about the history of a collectible antique as we very rarely get to know where or why things are as they are. I really feel for Jane (Phyllis Logan) and it is sad that Alex (Pavel Douglas) is saying all the wrong things. Also I agree he should be around more for her to ask. That was good timing. I do feel for Jane it is horrible to watch. Just as Tinker (Dudley Sutton) was talking about travelling in his dreams . i thought of the film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang where Grandpa Potts (Lionel Jeffries) did most of his travelling through daydreaming and all of sudden Tinker spots a character in the auction room called Potts (Tony Caunter). This is a completely surprising coincidence. Now we hear Tinker talk about the interesting messages left and things are getting heated in the auction room. I don’t like that he stopped bidding either, it is disappointing to watch. That is a big dog. So funny poor Lovejoy (Ian McShane) sit down. That is one spoilt dog and that is an u...

Fun Friday Eric Of Arabia Lovejoy

  It is an eye opener and quite true, can something be classed as original when parts have been replaced due to wear and tear?. This part reminded me of the TV program Only Fools And Horses with David Jason. Where the character Trigger (Roger Lloyd Pack) was going to get an award for having the same broom whilst working. This would have been fine if he hadn’t revealed that the broom had had so many new heads and so many new handles. Lovejoy’s (Ian McShane) take on this is not quite so amusing but works for the episode. This bike business is now getting amusingly action packed and cringingly dubbed. What a find. Very useful.  Not the music again. Fascinating stuff. Thank you for reading Sandra
