TRANSCRIPTS

Can I help with the transcripts?
Sure! I'd love all the help I can get. Please me before you start a transcript, though, to make sure I or someone else isn't already working on the same one. Even if you have a partially completed transcript that you don't feel like finishing, if you want to send it to me it would still be a big help!

Transcripts that are complete but not yet posted: "The Return of Jafar"

Partially completed transcripts (I will let you know what point they got to if you want to complete them): "Some Enchanted Genie", "The Citadel", "Stinker Belle"

Why do some transcripts have illustrated versions and others don't?
Until recently I was dependant on others to take screenshots and did not have them for all of the episodes. I now am able to take my own screenshots, but it'll take some times to add screenshots to all the transcripts. They will all eventually be illustrated, but I haven't gotten around to all of them yet.

Would you send me the larger version of one of the screenshots?
Many of the screencaps in the transcripts have larger versions in the image gallery, so please check there first. If not, I can take some caps for you, if it's only one or two. If you want a whole episode screencapped that I haven't done yet, then that's asking a lot... You can also find other sites that have screencaps of the series in the images section of the site directory.

MUSIC

Didn't there used to be music downloads on this site?
In December of 2006 I was contacted by Walt Disney Music's lawyers and asked to take down any music or video files on the site. I've always said I would take down anything here if Disney asked, and, to tell the truth, I was about to take it down on my own anyway because it was starting to get annoying, and because it's a lot easier to find legal copies of Aladdin music online now than it was when I started the site in 2000. You can find some other sites that still offer downloads in the music section of the link directory; I also have a page that links to legal downloads of Aladdin music from Amazon. If you are looking for a song but are having trouble finding it, please feel free to contact me or ask on the forums; we'd be happy to help!

Did you know there's a mistake in your foreign lyrics?
No. Would you please tell me what it is? The only one of these languages I know anything about is Spanish, so any help I could get would be wonderful. But please make sure that it actually is a mistake, first; I've gotten caught in the middle of other people's arguments about the correct lyrics of foreign songs before, and it's not a lot of fun...

Could you send me the sheet music for the songs?
No, unfortunately I don't own any. I do have some links where you can buy sheet music here.

SITE MISC

Would you consider adding a chatroom to your page?
No. First of all, I don't have the time to monitor a chatroom. Secondly, I honestly don't have enough visitors to support a chatroom. I mean, look at how few posts there are on the messageboard. It's just not practical.

Do you want to join my site competition?
No. I consider them to be rather pointless, and encourage webmasters to bug their friends to vote for them rather than working on actually improving their sites.

ALADDIN MISC

What's with that rumor that Aladdin says "take off your clothes"?
It's not true; Aladdin is telling Rajah to "take off and go". You can read more about it at this page. If you don't believe this or think Snopes doesn't know what they're talking about, don't try to argue with me about it. I'm not interested in having a debate. I'm sorry if I sound rude, but about every other question I get is about this...
If you're interested in any of the other rumors about Aladdin you should check this page.

Will there ever be a fourth Aladdin movie?
In the forseeable future, no. There've been a couple of rumors, but they're pretty old and nothing has been substantiated. That's not to say that there'll never be a third sequel, but it's not happening any time soon. In response to the individual rumors...

That there will be a fourth movie starring Aladdin and Jasmine's son, who goes searching for his own genie: This rumor was traced back to a radio DJ in Spain back in 2002, and no other source has mentioned it. Probably not going to happen.

That there will be a trilogy of movies starring Robin Williams as Genie, without any other Aladdin characters: This rumor started shortly after King of Thieves came out in 1996, so it's probably a misinterpretation of news about the series of "Great Minds Think for Themselves" shorts starring Genie. Once again, if over six years have passed with no corroborating evidence, it's probably not happening.

Could you help me find copies of the Aladdin episodes?
I can't make copies of my tapes, if that's what you're asking. Probably your best bet to buy them would be ebay.com; I see some of them come up every once and awhile. I won't put a notice up on my site that you want to buy or trade episodes or have them for sale. If you want to use the messageboard to arrange a deal with someone, though, I won't stop you.

Will you tell me where to download Aladdin movies or episodes?
No. Do you want me to get shut down?

Will you help me find Aladdin merchandise?
I can try, but I probably won't be much help, because most of my Aladdin stuff I either bought at a store, a garage sale, or at ebay.

I have set up a section of the site messageboard for those who are looking for or selling Aladdin merchandise, so maybe another site visitor will be able to help you. ;)
