And nobody could’ve voiced him better than Jonathan Freeman! It’s not just that he’s voiced the character for such a long time; his voice just seems so RIGHT for someone like Jafar!! 💪🏻👍🏻
Well, the original movie was so popular, it warranted a TV Series, and it was either break this up into a 5-Part Pilot like with shows like DuckTales and Chip n Dale Rescue Rangers, or release it as a Direct-To-Video Movie. In a way, this is exactly that, a 5-Part Pilot for Aladdin: The Series.
@@YoshiAngemon it’s a shame that this movie doesn’t have the same look at the movie but the look of the tv series. It’s so distracting to look at if you watch the original and then this. Like the cover art for this movie has the same designs from the original.
It was TV Disney that made this film, as a pilot for the series. Had fk all to do with the film Disney. The film department would not have been stupid enough to kill off jafar
This song is pretty ironic. It's called "You're only second rate" and he is mocking a voice actor that has to impersonate Robin Williams because he didn't return for this movie (which is also second rate, as a direct-to-TV sequel). So pretty literal. It's also the second Jaffar song that just mocks his opponents, so he never gets his own "villain song".
Subtly, this shows how much more powerful a bound genie is to an unbound one. Genie sacrificed his power for freedom, while Jafar was still bound, his power was still immense.
@@Indestructiblevibranium so what! genie was all powerful and had more experience than jafar... so he definitely would of destroyed him... genie knew how to kill jafar all together by revealing it to Aladdin by destroying the lamp.... see jafar didn't know nothing about being a genie or how to destroy a genie... he became genie by trying to be power hungry and wasn't aware of all the rules that goes with being a genie.
@@Rambo20244 Jafar knew to protect his lamp too otherwise he wouldn't stare in horror before it plummeted into the lava. Maybe before, maybe after he became a genie. Remember, he was already a sorcerer in the 1st movie so it makes sense he'd have some knowledge of mystical creatures like genies even if he never met one before. On the other hand, all that knowledge of genies could have been passed to him once he became one himself.
Jafar Is Toying With Genie Because Genie Made Jafar Is The Greatest Powerful Genie In The Universe And Most Importantly Since Genie Is Free Genie Is Lost Most Of Power It Had..
1)He wished to be the most powerful BEING in the Universe,and since the Genie's limits are Genies itselfs,he made Jafar one 2)He lost NONE of his powers
@@clubedanarrativa5603 Genie did lose the majority of his powers as much of is was tied to the power of the lamp. During Aladdin 2 and Aladdin the animated series, it was explained that he from "phenomenal cosmic powers with an iddy bitty living space" to having "Not so Phenomenal semi-cosmic powers but all the freedom in the world." Or something like that. By the movie, he's regained a lot of former magic strength but it still wouldn't be up to snuff compared to when he was bound to the lamp. Another bound Genie named, Edith, was also shown to be more powerful than a freed Genie.
love how the only two times jafar sings he parodies the songs Genie sang. Prince Ali and this one being a mirror of Friend Like Me. He’s even anachronistic in this song like Genie is in “Friend Like Me”. I love it so much
@@natewilson6760 I didn't know. Cut some people some slack. I haven't heard of 1984. Can't I just make a comment without someone responding with r/whooosh or "Right over your head?" I didn't know it was a joke; all I saw was an equation.
He's more powerful in this one than he is in the first one that's because genies powers that granted jafars third wish. And the third wish oh he chose poorly. He didn't listen to a thing at ALL Iago said about the plan, earlier in the first movie they were discussing if jafar became husband and then became sultan and if he did they were going to drop the sultan and jasmine off a cliff, that's why genie moved the palace ontop of a mountain because the plan and if it hadn't been for Aladdins return or small talk they would have succeeded and the movie would've been over.
Instead of making this into it's own movie, they should've just kept it as being apart of the TV series. Imagine if it was Mozenrath who rediscovered Jaffar's lamp instead of a peddler, it could've been a real dark contrast to Al and Genie's dynamic.
Even though Jafar’s wish was to be the most powerful Genie doesn’t really explain the fact why Blue Genie’s power have no effect on him, since it was he who granted the wish, and he must have naturally existed as one since dawn of time compared to Jafar, thus effectively making him all powerful amongst the all powerful . Also since Jafar was only human, and if Abysmal had freed him, then he will lose all his Genie powers.
It really doesnt matter if he existed as one jafar became what blue genie was before he was freed which was all powerful and genie after being freed he had his power decreased if he was still under the lamp then the fight would have been different
Whatever's to be said about this movie, Jafar was definitely one of the good points about it. In my opinion, his characterization in this movie among the best of any antagonist in any direct-to-video movie.
lux This was supposed to be a three-part pilot of the Aladdin TV series and this movie kickstarted the show. This should've went with the original plan 'cause, as you said, the animation isn't so great.
TV Disney got hold of it, jafar was spared in the main movie because he was such a hit. TV Disney killed him, literally. Walter Disney turns in his grave every hour at what the Disney empire is now
+Avaruusmurkku its not that Jafar was more powerful it was that Genie was weaker. When genie first appears in this movie he expalins that his powers are'nt what they used to be. Instead of being phenomenal cosmic power, its "semi phenomenal nearly cosmic" so he's just more powerful than the sorsesor jafur since genie is still pure magic
When i was a boy ,watching this scene was pretty scary ,seeing the one I believed to be the strongest being overwhelmed by an even more powerful villain ,its a good formula for movies to remove that sense of safe and security for the viewers
Wonder what it would have been like if Jafar was free. They didn't want Jafar to be free because then he wouldn't have to follow the rules of the genie. Jafar would also be weaker, just like Genie got weaker. I guess he'd be roughly equal to Genie if he was free.
the movie's underrated, but the animation is so incredibly bad, though. *_THIS_* movie is the one disney needs to look at remastering, not all these other movies that already looked fine as-is. freaking dust this off the shelf and pay for some decent animation already, Disney. it's really not that bad of a movie, even the TV series looked slightly better (because of consistency) and the third movie was more defined and had better animated shots and frame-by-frames.
Because now that Genie was freed his powers were diminished. Also, when Jafar made his final wish he wished to be an "all powerful genie". Therefore he surpassed Genie in power even before Genie was freed.
Jafar is more powerful than Genie because in the first movie he wished to be a sorcerer and a genie and he has so much more powers and abilities he possess
A genie that is still prisoner to his/her lamp needs cosmic power to be able to grant their masters wishes. Once they're free, they don't need that power anymore so it leaves them...
+GirlWithThe ArtFolder Perhaps its the fact that when Jafar messes with people, He's super rude and deadly about it, Or attempts to be. Given they Can't kill anyone, But who says they can't give you a big ass scare? Genie is also released from the lamp, He's probably Very limited to what he can and cannot do, But when he Does do magic, He doesn't do it to Hurt another, To deathly scare another either.
+GirlWithThe ArtFolder BTW Even if Genie had still full powers, he could not be stronger than Jafar genie form, since in the first installment, Jafar wished a condition of being the omni-powered genie ever.
How is Jafar watered down in this movie? If anything Jafar is a better villain or at least equal to being an amazing villian as he was in the first movie. Like despite the fact he had limited freedom as a genie he was still smart, cunning, and manipulative to the point he nearly succeeded in defeating the entire cast.

Doesn't Iago say that as well? That's what I Googled but this video popped up.
Now that was a great quote 3 times in the same movie.

But what does that line even mean?
@@johnplatz3503 that's what I'm trying to figure out
Homer Simpson vs Jafar
Carium D'OH
WHY YOU LITTLE!!!!!!!!!
Jafar Vs Robot Devil from Futurama
This song is honestly the best part of this whole movie. I still like this song a lot
All the song were really pretty decent. But this song is very fitting. It perfectly mirrors the genie song in the first film
Let us be honest, villians always have the best songs, lines and the best laughs.
Ikr it’s the complete opposite of “friend like me” while friend like me shows the genies great abilities this one demeans them.
Jafar is by far one of the best Disney villains of all time
And nobody could’ve voiced him better than Jonathan Freeman! It’s not just that he’s voiced the character for such a long time; his voice just seems so RIGHT for someone like Jafar!! 💪🏻👍🏻
“Granny’s gonna grab ya” that line always slays me.
In Finnish version the line he says is: "Psykopatisoidaan!" As referring to Norma/Norman Bates 😂
That movie predicted the horror game “Granny”
Thought I was the only one who liked this song still
At least he was nice enough to apologize for spoiling the picnic.
You can tell Jonathan Freeman had alot of fun recording this song (even if the sequel should've never existed)

Mr. Freeman is crazy!
Jafar is the best part.

exactly, this is not good animation

Homer Simpson vs satan. Interesting. lmfao.
OMG I just noticed that.
Homer: "I'm smarter than the Devil."
The Return of Jafar goes down in Disney history. This is the best song I always like and I enjoy watching this film over and over again every month.

So pretty literal. It's also the second Jaffar song that just mocks his opponents, so he never gets his own "villain song".
Really sad in hindsight, but I admit the song was catchy. And I alwaysed loved both versions of genie as a kid. Movies and the TV show
Genie's voices in 3 movies:
1: Robin Williams (Aladdin 1 & 3)
2: Dan Castellaneta (Aladdin 2)
3: Will Smith (Aladdin Live Action)
No, no, you misunderstood, I've meant voice actors, not Live-Action actors.
If Jafar could have just chilled out a bit, say for 10,000 years, who knows? Him and Genie could've been friends, maybe.
Thats Jafar in a nutshell hes a total hot head compared to the genie. I mean their colors are a dead give away of their personalities. ;D
Subtly, this shows how much more powerful a bound genie is to an unbound one. Genie sacrificed his power for freedom, while Jafar was still bound, his power was still immense.
Dang, genie Jafar's almost got a damn 12-pack of abs.
Hes ripped to shreds.
If they make an Alaadin 2 live action they better put this song in that movie. This song is too good
3:07
