Aladdin Central Messageboard

I'm currently watching Full House, and every time Steve shows up, and says anything, well, I know he did Aladdin's voice, but it's kind of odd. Like hearing Al's voice, but saying things he never said in the movies. Sometimes I find it a bit confusing.

Especially when I hear the voice, but he is off screen. Like when he and DJ are reading Stephanie's story, and he's like, 'that's the same thing that happened to us!', I'm like, 'Al?!'.

I find it hilarious any time that man speaks. I bought a promo tape of the show "Switched Up!" off ebay like 8 years ago JUST to hear him talk more. It was totally worth it. I can hear Aladdin say "I mooned a shark Very Happy

"

I was the same way with Jason Alexander when I started watching Seinfeld; it was so weird to hear Abis Mal's voice coming out of a live actor. Laughing

Hearing Steve talk is probably the main reason I watch Full House. Razz

I also get it with Robin Williams, especially when he's being goofy (which is a lot). Even when he is being Mrs. Doubtfire, I think of Genie's impression of her.

I don't think I've ever heard Linda Larkin's voice outside of Aladdin, but I do enjoy showing off to my friends by pointing out Liz Callaway and Lea Salonga singing when we're watching movies like "The Swan Princes," "Anastasia," and "Mulan."

I actually don't think much of Iago when I hear Gilbert though... probably because he just plays a bunch of obnoxious characters and actually talks like that in real life. Although he did play a bird in a mathematical children's show a few years ago. That reminded me of Iago.

EDIT: This is the show: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0309141/ "Cyberchase"

LOL..I remember watching that show when I was a little kid. The first time I saw it I nearly fell out of my chair, thinking, 'Iago?!'

When I first watched Full House, it was with a group of friends and I was like the only one who immediately recognized Steve's voice was Aladdin's. It was was quite exciting to see the face behind the voice--he was pretty handsome Very Happy

That's why I watch Full House, too. Very Happy

Do you know where I can get that tape?

I like think, 'okay, it's not Aladdin,', but that never works. When I finish watching an episode, I always want to watch the movie next. Which I do. Laughing

That's why I watch twice a week.

It's near impossible for me to hear Gilbert and not associate it to Iago... pretty much because I can hear Iago doing all of Gilbert's dirty standup material. Laughing

Scott Weinger, too, will forever be Aladdin. There's his movie, "Shredder," and Scott has all sort of fun statements (like "spankworthy") and yeah, still associate it to Al. Laughing

Kellie Martin's another one; I rented the first season of Life Goes On, on which Kellie is a star, and there is an episode with Scott where he plays a football star or something (that might be wrong; it was like, 3 years ago that I rented it Laughing

) and by brain can't handle the dissonance. Razz

Has anyone ever seen the episode of Full House where they dress Scott up as Aladdin?? Priceless!

I haven't gotten to that one. I'm on Season 6. I watch it in order, two episodes per weekend, one on Saturday, one on Sunday. Won't be able to watch anything this weekend. My parents are taking me to San Diego for my birthday. I asked to see the ocean as a birthday gift. It's about the only thing my parents will get me for my birthday that I'll like. I get a lot of stuff I don't care for on Christmas or my birthday. Anything I do like is too babyish, they say.
