Mothias is what I remember, too. But he had a different name as a worm, though... |

I think it's Mothias, but subtitles would be nice  |

Yep, "Mission: Imp Possible." Them trying to get into the silk worm's lair (I used to remember his name...) is the best part of that episode.
EDIT: This bothers me. Mothias? Mothia? ... I could just look this up, but that's cheap.  |

I just noticed, the game's a sidescroller, but it goes from right to left; all the ones I've ever seen go from left to right...
The animation... not so hot. Although it seemed like it got better as the episode went on, but maybe that's just me getting accustomed to it.
It's got some funny dialogue, though!
Iago: Isn't this excessive power for a wizard?
Ding: We're excessive wizards.
I forgot all about the Abyss of Nothingness.

I used to have a rule of thumb that if an episode involved the gang going somewhere cold and snowy, I wasn't going to like it. "Snowman is an Island", "Of Ice and Men", "Shadow of a Doubt"... I see a pattern.
Anyway, it's neither one of my favorites or one of my least favorites. It's not one I dread watching (really not looking forward to transcribing "Snowman is an Island), but not in my top ten either. *shrug* Not all of them can be the best... |

I've never watched Lost, but Ajed Al-Jebraic lives in a cabin; is that close enough?  |

It's defnitely not one of Genie's strongest episodes. Plus, omg, if they showed it ONE MORE TIME on Toon Disney, I was going to rip my hair out  |

I just watched this episode for the first time in several years. My opinion of it hasn't changed.
There's some history stuff in it, which I always find somewhat interesting. Genie is over 16,000 years old and Ding/Opo once ruled the world. You know, um, however that works out.
I forgot about the polar bear... this series is the original Lost. Smoke monsters, polar bears, mysterious temples, cursed islands... I wonder if Fasir lives in a cabin?  |

I agree on Freeman. It was great to have him around for an ep. I still find it pretty awesome that the series didn't bring Jafar back and ruin what happened in RoJ... we have other media to do that for us, though.
Though I still say they could have used Jafar in an Ayam Aghoul episode... rather than having him spend about four years in transit to the Grecian Underworld.  |

Wow, I really need to watch this one again, I don't remember much about it.
But the fact that they got Jonathan Freeman back to play another villain was pretty awesome, I think.  |

I haven't watched it in years. Even on series marathons, I can't bring myself to do it. That and "Beast or Famine" have that sad distinction.  |

Haha not exactly.
I don't remember this episode enough to comment, though. :/ |

... by Ding and Opo's standards, does that mean you're dead?  |

I wonder if this episode has been talked about on this board, but...
I recently watched it, and I have to say that I really liked it. It did seem odd to have two wizards take Al and co. out of Agrabah, but I felt it worked well for the situation, and I liked the excitement and clever twist ending.
Favorite moments:
--The scenes where Genie and Carpet compete with each other. Those were funny.
--The wrestling with the Polar Bear
--Both climbing scenes; the latter one was especially intense--who would reach Iago OR Abu first?
--The "Videogame"! I really didn't expect that at all, but as a videogamer I thought it was a great touch!
