The Return of Jafar Goofs  
 



* In the scene where Aladdin is talking to Jasmine in front of the mirror the jeweled flower is in a vase with a real flower when the monkey under the table takes the real flower and the scene cuts back and shows the vase with both flowers. Seconds later the vase is completely empty.

* In the scene where the Genie is singing in the beginning of the movie, towards the end of the song when they are up in the palace, when Genie, Aladdin, and Jasmine first throw their arms out, you see that Jasmine's arms are behind Genie's. But when they turn around facing the outside, you see her arms in front of Genie's.

* During the dinner with the Sultan, the Genie cuts off his hand and it starts to tap dance. When it stops dancing you can see that the Sultan's eyebrows are gone. Then when the Sultan starts laughing his eyebrows pop back.

* Toward the beginning of the film, when Aladdin, flying on Carpet, is throwing the treasure he recovered from Abis Mal to the commoners, after he mutters to Abu that the last of it has been thrown, a full bag of loot can still be seen.

* In one scene, Abu is trying to take the jeweled flower from the vase containing both it and a real flower. After he mistakingly grabs the real flower instead of the jeweled one, the jeweled flower is the one seen missing from the vase. A short time after, both are seen missing.

* During the scene when Aladdin and Jasmine are in the courtyard, Aladdin is initially wearing his palace garments, but about halfway through (after the interval with Jafar and Abis Mal), he is seen wearing his peasant clothes, and remains in these clothes for the remainder of the film.

The Return of Jafar Trivia  

* This was the only Aladdin full-length film without the original voice of the Genie, Robin Williams. He was replaced by the voice of Homer Simpson in The Simpsons, Dan Castellaneta, who also voiced the Genie in the animated series as well as Kingdom Hearts. Eventually, Robin Williams returned as the Genie in Aladdin and the King of Thieves.

* At the end of the film, Jafar, when his black lamp melts in the magma, dies but Iago, his ex-sidekick, is still alive and returns in the TV series, Aladdin, and the last Aladdin film, Aladdin and the King of Thieves, followed in 1996.

* Abis Mal made a few reappearances in the Aladdin animated TV series afterwards. Jafar reappeared in only one episode of the animated series based upon the Disney animated feature ,Hercules and in Mickey's house of Villains.

* The plot of this movie is loosely used in Agrabah, one of the worlds in Kingdom Hearts II, only with Abis Mal being replaced by the Peddler from the first film.

* After the credits have rolled at the end of the film, a scene of animation occurs in which Abis Mal, hanging on a branch in a tree in the courtyard of the Sultan's palace, says to himself: "Does this mean I don't get my third wish?".

* The movie was received well by most critics, but has often been panned for its animation. Many fans have stated, "It was a good movie, but it would have been better had it been done by hand."
