Title: very weird movie
Post by: scott1123 on February 04, 2010, 11:56:00 AM
Just wondered what name of this film is ... this is not a case of forgetting, I caught part of it at the local bar the other day (probably a good thing considering the movie haha)

At first I just thought it was a medieval type of movie, then all this crazy stuff starts happening ... a dog turns back into a kid (guess he was a kid to begin with) .. there's this big black genie with a red diaper that flies through the air like Superman and the kid rides on his back ....
 
.. Kid has three wishes and one is the genie makes him hot dogs ... really weird movie ...

Heck, it sounds a bit like The Thief of Baghdad (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0033152/) (1940), except for the part about the hot dogs, but I could have forgotten that part.

Was this your big black genie in a red diaper?

If that's not your movie, then the movie you watched was probably a take-off on this classic.

Taken from a review on imdb for the THEIF OF BAGHDAD (1940)

" For freeing him, he gets three wishes. His first is for sausages."

The Rev nailed it!  :thumbup:
