Aladdin asks Genie to "make me a prince," so he should have actually become a true prince, with royal lineage, riches, etc and not merely the same street rat with a disguise and props to make him appear to be one. Since that's still all he was, the wish was never actually granted.
My people skills are fine. It's my tolerance of morons that needs work.
Yeah, that's true. Basically, anyone with money and access to a menagerie of animals could have done what Genie did!
shareWho says that's not exactly what the Genie granted him? It's what he promises to do the second time around, so why not the first time? Maybe he created some princedom in the desert? It's just that Jafar took away all those things that made him a prince.
shareNo, Jafar took away the things that made him look like a prince. Being a prince isn't only attire, wealth and land. It's also attitude, experience, reputation. A prince is born as such, so he would have royal lineage.
Case in point, Aladdin still had to pretend to be a prince before Jafar rose to power, like how he fumbled to justify that he really was a prince when Jasmine recognized him from the marketplace after the carpet ride. If Genie had made him an actual prince, he wouldn't have to hide anything.

Uefa but either case it wouldn't be like somebody wouldn't have discovered he really wasn't a prince.
shareIf he made him a royal prince the movie would be over.
shareWhy?
shareHe would have every thing and jasmine would automatically like him.
shareThat's nonsense. Jamsine did not like anyone because they were a prince, in fact, it almost seemed she held that against them. And Aladdin basically did have everything thanks to that wish, didn't you see all the things he got during the Prince Ali song?
shareStratego is correct there is no way that Jasmine would not have taken a liking to any prince right away, have you seriously seen this movie? She pretty had sent Prince Achmed packing the next day I assume by having Rajah "play" with him as she claimed even through Rajah had a piece of his pants in his/her mouth. And looked how mad he was when he stormed in the room that Sultan was in.
shareAlso, Genie growing all big and lifting the entire palace up was surely a wish being granted? So Jafar should have had one wish left after that, unless Genie was willingly assisting him.

Sad story. You got a smoke?
That was just part of his wish to become Sultan, just like the Genie conjured up all those people and animals for Aladdin's wish to become a prince.
shareBut was it? The people and animals for Aladdin's wish to become a prince could a) be followers he amassed by being (or posing as, as the story would seem to have it) a prince, or b) be there because Genie liked Aladdin and wanted to help. I can't imagine the Genie not telling Jafar anything beyond making him a Sultan would be an additional wish, considering he sort of attempted that with Aladdin (not for the prince bit), whom he liked (not that he wanted to pick out curtains, or anything).

Yes, it was. Princes don't have "followers", they have subjects and since Aladdin was a prince of a fictional place Genie also had to conjure up "fictional" subjects. And Aladdin had just come from the desert, he didn't even have enough time to gain followers. The people and animals were supposed to reflect Prince Ali's wealth, so ofcourse Genie created them. At the end of the desert scene Genie even says that the outfit alone isn't enough and that he's going to make him a star, suggesting that he conjured up the whole show.
It's more than just help, Genie wanted to help Aladdin from drowning but couldn't unless he made a new wish.
As Sultan Jafar can decide where he wants his palace to be, so moving it would definitely be part of his wish.
Well, it would seem Jafar asks to "rule on high, as Sultan". So I guess if it wasn't included in the wish Genie might just have taken that quite literally.
Never you mind.

Here's another way to look at this, the act of clothing him, getting followers, the riches etc. wasn't the genie fulfilling his wish, it was a means to an end. There's only two ways to become a prince, either be born one coming from royal lineage or marry a princess.
Helping Aladdin win Jasmine's heart, marrying her and subsequently becoming prince by marriage was the Genie fulfilling Aladdin's wish.
The web is dark and full of spoilers
Yep you are right cause either you be born a prince or become one while marrying a princess but makes you wonder if citizens of the town would frown on a princess marrying somebody not even royal at all
shareExcept, marrying a princess didn't make him a prince. The sultan simply decreed that the princess could marry anyone she liked.
