Riding high on the success of Aladdin 2: Return of Jafar, Disney decides to pilfer from Shakespeare this time. In March of 1995, the world witnesses the release of Disney’s Othello. The entire reason for this movie’s existence is to have Gilbert Gottfried as Iago. Not just like a funny casting joke, he’s the parrot from Aladdin. He wears like a hat and vest in this one or something, and no one ever mentions Aladdin or Agrabah, but it’s like Baloo in TailSpin, you know damn well it’s the same dude.
Damn, what even was Tailspin? What possessed Disney to add another character to the roster of ones that go on to have new roles beyond their original 30 years after Michael Mouse?

Phillip Seymour Hoffman. He can come back and do anything at any time. He had so much more to give and so much more to receive. God damn shame.
I’d love to see Gilda Radner come back for Weekend Update.
Annie Wersching should still be playing the Borg queen.
