Yeah but Return of Jafar has "You're only second rate."
QuietProfessional
The carpet in Aladdin was one of the first computer-animated characters in a feature film. Clearly not a repeated technique for the sequel.
GenkiJAM
You can't fucking compare the CGI carpet from the first movie with a hand-drawn one in the sequel.
ThePinkestPigglet
Direct to video sequels are what the used to train new animators.

Thread count: "six"
TacoCatte12
I never noticed. I liked both
CrissCross35
It's a shame actually. Many of the Disney clasics Could have had fantastic sequels instead of just a cheap straight to VHS.
Veggisaurus
I liked the sequel to The Little Mermaid somewhat.
MrColumbeanu
"Meh, the little shits will watch it anyway"
PedroBenecol
I hate this.
AREKEEOO
I can accept the Aladdin one because it's just like the TV series, which I liked.
Kizsurian
I think the Aladdin sequels were the really rare "these aren't half bad" exception in the Disney sequel era. Most were awful.
listentothesoundbetweenyourlegs
Just Disney-sequel-cash-grabs taking advantage of little children. Who needs quality when the movie name is enough to make mommy spend $$$?
CyranoDeBurlapSack
I loved return of Jafar. Legit cried as a kid when genie appeared.
periwinklepanda
I loved as a kid too!
regnant
Have you ever looked at the awful Balto sequels? Cringeworthy animation
VictusVonGuyver
This is pretty painful at times, but some of the stuff in the sequels can be amazing. I'm looking at the second Lion King movie.
preaction
Return of Jafar was going to be a pilot for the Aladdin TV show, much like there was for DuckTales, TaleSpin, and Gargoyles.
periwinklepanda
Interesting. I actually really liked that movie as a kid.
ButteryButtsButterflyCups
just like going from Naruto to Shipuden
Canofminus
It’s called a budget and it’s going to set by the expected return. More detail = more time = more money needed for production
KhevaKins
That is what direct to video sequels get you. It is pretty classic Disney. Make a hit movie, follow it up as fast as possible to capitalize.
ThePartyLeader
That's the difference between" we have a good story/idea" and "how can we can in on this brand/trend"
ThePinkestPigglet
I don't think that was the case with hunchback...
poscduke
It's more one hasa $20mil budget and the other has about $3.50
buzzedouttechguy
Return of Jafar had a budget less than $5 million, but made $150 million in profits.
Yepthosearebees
ChuckWeiss
He meant "cash in."
NaughtyCannibal
I didnt know either one had sequels.
Tibby1912
Tbh I liked the sequel for the Lion King. It was slightly different in style but still nice.
serenityfast
Did you know: Robin Williams did not play the Genie in Return of Jafar because Disney broke a promise not to use his voice for commercials.
Silverhearte
The guy who replaced Robin as the VA is the guy that voices Homer Simpson.
Alozar
Pretty sure he returned for King of Thieves though.
Silverhearte
He did.
NitroTheChampZach
The second atlantis movie was terrible in writing, acting, and quality
RiverBear
They made a second Atlantis movie??
ChrisMcDude
We don't talk about the sequel.
VorpaltheFox
no, they didn't, the first movie is all there is, don't look for anything beyond it
Lilly64
It was very obviously a pitch for a TV show that got turned down, and shoved together into a movie
ThatSquirrelInTheCorner
Absofuckinglutely. It wasn't even a movie. It was like 4 short stories shoved in one movie.
CAAFlo
Disney tries to make shows from movies. When it doesn't work, they turn it into a shitty movie
LegendofShrek
1) I think that's because it was supposed to be a proof of concept for the TV show that never got off the ground. So they just turned the
LegendofShrek
2) first three episodes into a direct to to video movie.
NitroTheChampZach
With no voice actors from the original
ThatSquirrelInTheCorner
Oh right I forgot about that. But without Michael J Fox, production was probably a lot less....shaky.
anialatrex
Are those aladins small ass feet in that last pick?
ChickenParmItTastesSoGood
You left out the ‘D.’
Meowsly
No, those are Jasmine’s. Happens during the song number “Forget About Love.”
embertouchtehfire
Aladin doesnt wear shoes. Thats the Sulton.
KNDBS
His feet ain't small, his pants are gigantic
SWReefer
The sultans
Scurix
What are those?
KurtHamster
Hey! They may smell, but ass-feet is taking it too far!
KamiSawZe
I’m having a hard time thinking of good Disney’s sequels (not counting Pixar).
tollerscream
Honestly, little mermaid 2 wasn't bad.
Azulite
The Fox And The Hound sequel is pretty cute.
TheGoodDrPepper
I liked Lady and the Tramp II a lot as a kid, I don't remember what the animation quality on it was though. Also Bambi was aight
Lilly64
Aladin 3 was pretty good.
RelativeVelocity
Jaffar needs glasses?
FemaleINTJ
i highly enjoyed Aladin 3, i think i watched it more than the original.
Ohgodtheyrealltaken
Mainly because it added some background to the characters and gave some answers about the story. RoJ was just a cash grab IMO.
wasuremaru
Was 3 the prince of thieves?
Lilly64
Yes
NerdN1
Oh good. I thought it was good, but I was afraid it was just a matter of me being a stupid kid.
GarandGunner
The Rescuers Down Under is great, and the rare sequel that's much better than the first https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gj043f05C1U
blairmichod
Down Under was made by an A team, hence its quality.
GarandGunner
Also had the great George C. Scott (Patton) as the villain. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfQTabN7LIQ
razetherunner
the ungodly disappointment watching the first one finally and realizing there was no Frank or Cody or Marahute in it is a scar on my memory.
razetherunner
i was eventually able to appreciate it as its own movie, but that was probably my first big WTF moment as a kid.
MissThickThickityThickFaceFromThicktownThickania
The Lion King sequels weren't bad. But then again, I haven't seen them since I was a kid so I might be wrong.
RelativeVelocity
I thought it was cringey. Thats just me though
SexyDonkeyBuns
I still enjoyed Lion King 1 1/2 after rewatching it recently. Can't think of any others
Drzhivago138
LK was Hamlet, LKII was Romeo and Juliet, and LK 1-1/2 was Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead.
TheRadarTechnicianMatt
Fuck me. It's taken me this long to realize LKII was Romeo and Juliet? I know the Hamlet comparison but damn.
buzzedouttechguy
Direct to video sequels of that era were produced by "Walt Disney Television Animation" thus the lower production quality.
thehambiegglar
Damn, I always wondered why Atlantis Milo's Return looked super cheap compared to the original.
buzzedouttechguy
Also, the production schedule on Aladdin was 5 years where the sequels was 2.
ihaveacatonmyshoulders
You mean Straight To DVD or STDVD for short.
whatupmyknitters
STDVD sounds like a redundant way of saying you've got a warty dick
ArtMadeofYourComment
Bad marketing. Not enough repeated letters in the name to be catchy, so it's being replaced with HHDDVVDDBVD.
WhellerNG
Everybody knows this year's blu ray, is going to be Red-Ray! Heh eh.
KurtHamster
VHS at the time, I think..

What's that whooshing noise?

Gosh darn.. There was a joke in there.. Dammy!!
