I actually didn't know Robin Williams played the Genie in the movie. Don't follow his work much, but RIP.

I never expected Robin Williams to die this year... :(

I never expected him to die at all. It was unthinkable.

I was expecting him to leave the earth 20-30 years from now... Why, Robin? Why did you have to kill yourself?!?

It's just he was my childhood voicing the genie and playing Peter Pan in Hook. I still watch that movie with my family every year. ;C

Same. It feels like just yesterday that he made us all laugh with his hilarious quotes in Good Morning, Vietnam!

In honour of his great humour, I would like to provide a funny quote from one of his best movies. (Good Morning Vietnam!)

Hey, we're back. That last few seconds of silence was Marcel Marceau's newest hit single, "Walkin' In The Wind." And now, here are the headlines. Here they come at you right now. Pope actually found to be Jewish. Liberace is Anastasia, and Ethel Merman jams Russian radar. The East Germans, today, claimed that the Berlin Wall was a fraternity prank. Also the Pope decided today to release Vatican-related bath products. An incredible thing, yes, it's the new Pope-on-a-Rope. That's right. Pope-on-a-Rope. Wash with it, go straight to heaven. Thank you. Meanwhile, Ethel Merman managed to jam Russian radar, she was quoted as singing [loud and off-key] "Oh, IIII've got a feeeeeliiiing... that loooove is here to staaaaay!". When asked for a statement, the Russians simply replied [with a Russian accent], "What the hell was that?"

Eh, I wouldn't really call something from the 80's/90's Antique, otherwise my PS2 would be antique... I'd call it retro.

:lol: I have one! I have it mostly because finding kids movies on VHS is much cheaper to entertain my daughter with than DVD. Also, copyright laws about sound & short film bites changed about the same time as the format change leaving a few films from not being available on DVD. The most memorable example was George Lucus's 1st animated film "Twice Upon a Time" in 1983. Arguably the most impressive example of stop-motion animation ever made.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twice_Upon_a_Time_(1983_film)
Another great example is Bill Plympton's "The Tune" in 1991. You may remember him if you were an MTV fan. Here is a link to a clip of that film.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YqGRzN7zvc
Unfortunately, there are talented animation artist out there that rarely had their work available for DVD & it's a shame.

To be honest, I'm a retro geek. I have a tape player, record player, Atari & even a Victoria. I grew up as a son of antique dealers & was a comic geek. However if you are a fan of animation, there are good works out there that you can only find on laser disc or VHS.

I wasn't a fan of the movie, but I did like the toy soldiers. When they went out to scout for the bigger toys, I thought that was cool.

Never saw it, but I guess in TS2, they busted out the barrel of monkeys. That was one of my favorite toys before I was old enough for toy collections (like GI Joe & such).
