One of the great things about the hand-drawn Дисней Animation, has always been, for me, to watch certain scenes and sequences in slow motion. Growing up with my dad's VHS machine, I could sit in front of the tv for hours and watch some of my Избранное scenes from the animated classics in slow motion. It was always facinating to me, each and every frame was a new discovery.
I have made similar Статьи like this, with The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast and The Lion King and now it's time for another one of my personal Избранное Дисней movies, Aladdin from 1992.
Me and Аладдин go way back. Along with The Little Mermaid and Pocahontas, it was one of my Избранное Фильмы growing up and it remains one to this day. I just Любовь the characters, the storyline, the songs, the score and the animation. And yes, this is one of the еще cartoony animated features Дисней has done. But that is not a problem for me. I still Любовь the movie. The Анимация is just so rich, from the character Анимация to the effects Анимация and the backgrounds.

Description of the sequence: A Palace Guard stands in front of Аладдин and takes a few swings at him with his sword, but Аладдин is way too fast.
PrueFever's comment: This is such a funny sequence and it shows easily how 'cartoony' Аладдин is. I bet the animators had a lot of fun with the whole 'One Jump Ahead' number as they got to let loose and animate some wacky sequences. I also Любовь how playful Аладдин is here. Even though he is in great danger, he still holds out the stolen хлеб like it was a sword. xD

I Любовь how Ты can see how жасмин is trying to resist the magic, but she has to give in and fall to her knees. The Sultan, on the other hand, just falls to his knees straight away! xD Also, the Анимация on the magic is also just beautiful. One thing I would have changed though, is the first frames. They're both just standing there, without doing anything. I'd had them react with their faces, their eyes, mouths, something.

How to get at a еще emotional in here. Just by adding that close-up, it added just what was needed."
