Aladdin (1x320)

Yayınlanma tarihi: May 14, 2020

Long before there was a terrible Disney live-action version of Aladdin, there was a terrible Disney live-action version of Aladdin! This one came out two years before the classic animated version, and has been rightfully scrubbed from history. In fact, Disney was so eager to suppress it that the guy who played Aladdin never acted again! Or before! This was his only role, and after ten seconds of his performance, you will realize it was one too many. The role of the Genie is played by Barry Bostwick, who appears to be doing an impression of the ventriloquist dummy Madame if she were operated by Charles Nelson Riley. The music fares no better, possibly an effort by director and noted Monkee Micky Dolenz to make the movie Head look better by comparison. Also the whole thing takes place in China. We know this because the cast of midwestern white people repeatedly reminds us that they are in China, often with a sensitive gong sound effect for emphasis. Join Mike, Kevin, and Bill for a whole new world of crap as they riff Aladdin! Written by: Mike Nelson, Conor Lastowka and Sean Thomason Contributing writers; Jason Miller and Zachary Shatzer
