The biggest problem with this film...


... in my humble opinion is that it focused too much on Iago. It's like Iago is the main lead and Aladdin is the second lead while Jasmine is relegated to almost being a side-kick like Abu.

To me, this film felt more like a Iago spin-off than an Aladdin sequel.

Mr McGee, don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry!

It pretty much is Iago's story. He's the one who goes through the biggest character change.

Can't stop the signal.

But Jafar has to be one of the most evil looking cartoon villains!!

I Agree. Too much Iago. They couldn't give him a singing voice? He is a parrot after all.

Iago's my favorite Aladdin character, so obviously I don't mind

Half the reason the movie exists the way it does is to explain how Iago appears in the Aladdin TV show
