Brotherhood of the Film. (yes that's you fellow whitegrovians.)


Hello Brotherhood of A Kid in Aladdin's Palace, you know who you are. I have decided to compile a list of foolish mistakes in the film. While the film is quite sacred, it still deserves to be insulted in any way possible. All non-brotherhood members should ignore this thread and leave us to our strange ways. Thank You.


I start by pointing out the simple problem of Calvin being Gay. Why make a movie, a kid's movie no less, with a gay teenager in the leading role. Evidence pointing to his homosexuality:

1. He looks gay.

2. He sounds gay.

3. He acts gay.

4. He smells gay.

5. He brushes his teeth at an oasis...... instead of freaking drinking water!!; a definite sign of gayness.

6. He works at a restaraunt with a D- student dude named Elliott who somehow owns a convertable though his father works at a pizza parlor. Calvin is somehow inferior to this neanderthal, and needs to travel back in time in order to stand up to him.

7. After wondering through the desert for some amount of time, the two things he craves most are Haagendaas Ice Cream and a Burger King Whopper. What is more gay than having strange cravings when you should be wanting water.

Please add your mistakes as soon as possible.

Calvin going to have some fun tonight!

I would like to start by welcoming myself into this brotherhood, it is frikin awesome. My insult to the film would have to be the bad effects they are horrible. Take the opening scene with Aladin for one example out of many. The rocks are shown falling 7 times! Yes for any stupid non brother hood people, I've counted.

Note: When I said my insult I did not mean there was one insult because there to many to count.

P.S. I will be on imdb for a while so respond.

I'm sorry, that last hand...nearly killed me.

Welcome Goldeneye, thank you for your insight into the foolishness of the film.

Continued problems:

1. Luxor saying, "I hate happy." While this line is among the coolest ever uttered in the history of American cinema, I must remark how lame it is. Is there a more obvious way to set up your villain? It's like having Vader come up to the camera and saying "I'm a Bad Dude." It's pathetic. Why not have Luxor do something actually evil instead of "being among his people, taking whatever he wants!"

Man we are really racking up the reply total here!
THIS MOVIE BITES, yet it still holds a place in my rectum.

I'm sorry, that last hand...nearly killed me.

reply

that's strange.

Another problem:

The sandstorm scene; Why would our gay calvin call it a hurricane. We have already established that he was not thinking about water, so what could he be thinking. "Then that's not a hurricane right?" COME ON!!! It makes no sense.

I don't really feel like calling him because he might not be awake.

"Luke behind you"

I'm sorry, that last hand...nearly killed me.

reply

Is Geo here, I have a message for him- "My toes" "Strike!"

I'm sorry, that last hand...nearly killed me.

reply

Yes, he has recieved the message.

Another problem:

1. That this movie was made.

This movie is quite pathetic. If I had to describe it in one word, I would call it:

Problem #36: What highschool girl eats a pizza with fried tomatos and goat cheese. Why would Mr. Knockbest tell Calvin to clean a box of old pot that he got from an auction, that is not in his job description but he deserves to do it anyway because he is gay!

I'm sorry, that last hand...nearly killed me.

reply

Why would he buy the pots from the auction in the first place? What kind of idiot buys pots at an auction?

Let's play that elimination game. You know, the stupid one where each character gets a certain number of points and are slowly eliminated. Let's play where each person only gets one point.


Characters:

Calvin: 1
Aladdin:1
Luxor:1
Charlie:1
Valerie:1
Elliott:1
Mr. Knockbest:1
Achmed The Genie:1
Luxors Assistant:1
Shaharazad:1
Ali Baba:1
Bob:1
CuzCuz:1
Hummis:1
Red Spice Guard:1

Luxor- a crappy villin who is very brittish in a Middle East country. He has a gay ring that shoots poison. He is gay yet cool at the same time, and that is not an easy task.

I'm sorry, that last hand...nearly killed me.

reply

I would call it

HORRRRID!!!!!!!!!!!!! "We speak different languages"-Calvin

I'm sorry, that last hand...nearly killed me.

reply

Another mistake: The part where they are surfing on the sand is just stupid, I mean who would surf on the sand when you could safely walk down the dune. And how did they survive under the sand.

I'm sorry, that last hand...nearly killed me.

reply

Do you understand the game?

You take someones point and give it to someone else until there is only one person left with points.
