Return of Jafar, the

starring: Jason Alexander, Jeff Bennett, Val Bettin, Liz Callaway, Dan Castellaneta
directed by: Tad Stones, Alan Zaslove

July 14, 1998
While this was probably one of the better Direct-to-video releases Disney produced - it was *far* from memorable. Bringing Jafar back seemed like some sort of cop-out - as if there were no other villans or adventures to chase. It played out like a gigantic episode from the TV series (which I also remember watching, but not with any kind of fervor.)

And somehow, creating a sequel for Aladdin felt cheap - it was a feeling I couldn't rid myself of during the entire film.

Entertaining Angels

starring: Moira Kelly, Martin Sheen, Lenny von Dohlen, Melinda Dillon, Paul Lieber
directed by: Michael Ray Rhodes

June 02, 1998
This video portrayed the life of Dorothy Day, a remarkable woman, who with her passion for Christ started the Catholic Worker movement.

A special movie... One that is not at all light-hearted, but one that will challenge you and make you think differently about the value of human dignity.

If you are in the mood for something different, a movie that will bring you closer to your own faith, I recommend this one. It made me reevaluate my priorities.

Aladdin and/King/Thieves

starring: Val Bettin, Jim Cummings, Gilbert Gottfried, Linda Larkin, Jerry Orbach
directed by: Tad Stones

August 13, 1996
"The Return of Jafar" was a big step down from the grand Disney hit "Aladdin." Everything about it - the animation, the acting, and the music - was low-quality. But probably the biggest disappointment was that Robin Williams, the perfect Genie, was gone. It was little more than a long Saturday morning cartoon.

"Aladdin and the King of Thieves," on the other hand, is a surprisingly well-made and entertaining direct-to-video cartoon sequel. Not only did the creators return Robin Williams to do his excellent job as Genie, but they also cast none other than John Rhys-Davies (Indiana Jones, The Lord of the Rings) as Cassim, Aladdin's long-lost father. Their acting is the best part of the film.
