Released in 1990, during the interim between seasons 3 and 4 of DuckTales, DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp marked the first theatrical animated movie by The Walt Disney Company that was not part of their animated feature canon (being produced by Walt Disney Animation, France S.A., which would later transfer from Television Animation work to Feature Animation work, and released under the one-time "Disney Movietoons" label), and their first movie based on one of their television shows.The film opens on Scrooge, Launchpad, Huey, Dewey, Louie, and Webby arriving at a dig site where Scrooge's diggers have found a map to a treasure Scrooge has been seeking for forty years - the treasure of Collie Baba and his 40 Thieves. Unbeknownst to them, Dijon, a digger with a severe case of kleptomania, is working for an evil sorcerer named Merlock, who is also seeking the treasure so that he can get his hands on a magic lamp that Collie Baba stole from him so long ago. Just as Scrooge and company find the treasure, Merlock steals it right from under their beaks. However, before he could do that, Webby found the lamp Merlock was seeking, which Scrooge allowed her to keep as a toy for her tea party set. Thus, Scrooge and company end up coming home with the very thing Merlock was looking for.Back in Duckburg, the kids discover that the lamp contains a fun-loving genie, who disguises himself as a kid like them and grants their wishes without Scrooge knowing. Scrooge eventually finds out about the genie, and soon wishes for Collie Baba's treasure to be brought to his mansion so that he can finally brag about it to his patrons in the Archaeological Society. Unfortunately, Merlock and Dijon are still on the hunt for the genie, and they know that Scrooge has it...Though well-received by fans of the series, eventually becoming a minor Cult Classic, it was not a box office success, resulting in plans for other feature adaptations of shows from The Disney Afternoon, including more DuckTales films and a Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers movie, to be scrapped, along with Disney abandoning their MovieToons label after only one movie (only the Goof Troop spinoff, A Goofy Movie, would see a release, but under the main "Walt Disney Pictures" label). Meanwhile, Disney would have more success two years later with a different movie involving a genie who lived in a lamp.

 DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp / int_1439161f
comment
Heroic BSoD: Scrooge is very subdued after the first encounter with Merlock. He goes to sit on a log and when Launchpad expresses relief that at least everyone is fine, Scrooge brushes him off. He brightens a little after a talk with Webby, but even then his funk about losing the treasure gets in the way of a work day. Scrooge slumps when he's thrown into a jail truck and sees that his insignia on the Money Bin has been replaced with Dijon's, making it clear the building and the wealth inside it now belonged to him per the Genie. He's still in BSOD status when his family pays the bail and gets him out.

comment
Not-So-Harmless Villain: Dijon spends the whole first half of the movie as a sniveling pickpocket and toady to Merlock. When he succeeds in finding the lamp, Genie convinces him to keep it for himself, assuming he would do far less harm than Merlock. That's accurate, but it turns out that there's a lot of headroom below "less harmful than Merlock". He proves to have more of a mean streak than the Genie bargained for; he wishes for power and fortune, specifically Scrooge's, and arranges the latter to be thrown in prison and his family out on the streets.

Villain Ball: Genie convinces Dijon to keep the lamp for himself rather than turn it over to Merlock. However, Dijon ends up more cocky and malevolent than Genie had bargained for, using his wishes to steal Scrooge's fortune and home, and ignoring Genie's pleas to evade Merlock until he and Scrooge track him down, earning him an unpleasant comeuppance from Merlock.

Failed a Spot Check
 DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp / int_21e5b9c7
comment
Failed a Spot Check: As demonstrated in the opening scene, Scoorge apparently did not do a background check on Launchpad before hiring him as his personal pilot (and thus didn't know he never technically attended flight school). Given how much of a cheapskate Scoorge can be at times, this is arguably completely in character (and more or less aligns with Launchpad's Origins Episode from the show).

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Webby's first wish is for a baby elephant as a pet. It doesn't take long for a wild, untamed animal to start wreaking havoc in an environment it is not familiar with. Scrooge finds an ancient temple filled with gold and jewels. To the kids' surprise, he reveals that he's not going to keep it all, he's going to donate most of it to museums, ("That doesn't sound like Unca Scrooge.") because the tax break for doing so is more valuable to him than simply hoarding artifacts in his money bin. ("That does!")

The Dreaded Pretend Tea-Party: Webby wants to play tea party, and the genie (who is posing as a normal boy at the time) is pulled into it. Hilariously, Gene was fine with participating when he thought it was going to be like the Boston Tea Party but when Webby explains the actual game, he immediately complains of boredom. Unfortunately, his complaints backfire on him when his comments that Webby's 'party guests' are 'lifeless' gives Webby a bad idea. Provides the Trope image.

Wham Shot: Although it goes unnoticed by Scrooge and Launchpad, we can clearly see Dijon's name on the money bin when the duo returns to Duckburg; Scrooge's shock when he's dragged back out by security and finally takes notice of this is quite understandable.

Disproportionate Retribution
 DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp / int_50b05d30
comment
Disproportionate Retribution: One of the reasons Genie doesn't want Merlock to get his hands on the lamp is how fond he is of this. Unlimited power combined with slighting the angry wizard led to genocidal Disproportionate Retribution upon Pompeii and Atlantis. Repeated when he wishes for Scrooge's demise when he insults him during the climax.

Chased Off into the Sunset: After his adventure is over, Scrooge decides to have some fun by diving into his fortune. However, that's when he notices Dijon trying to leave with his pants filled to the brim with a good chunk of the duck's wealth. This is immediately followed by Scrooge chasing after Dijon out of the Money Bin and into the streets of Duckburg, all while the DuckTales theme song is playing in the background.

Three Wishes: What the Genie gives all of his masters. Merlock however has a talisman that allows him to override the three-wish rule. Unfortunately, wishing for possession of the talisman is the one wish beyond the genie's power. That and wishing for a million wishes and peace and happiness all over the world.

Villain Has a Point: During their first scene, Merlock becomes enraged when he realizes Dijon didn't steal the map. While terrified of the warlock's wrath, Dijon rightly points out that there were too many people present and he's only one thief. Pickpocketing may be his bread and butter, but even Dijon had enough sense to know grabbing the map right then and there was a fool's errand (not that it stopped him from engaging in other petty larceny). He does placate Merlock by revealing he was competent enough to check the map's reading.

Vile Villain, Saccharine Show: Though the movie does sort of play as an extended episode of the show, it's clear that Merlock poses a far darker and more serious threat to Scrooge and his nephews than any other enemy has in the past. In his past, he resorted to causing both the sinking of Atlantis and the destruction of Pompeii, which makes him the only villain in the franchise with a body count. Unlike other examples of the trope, this doesn't stop Merlock from being a Chew Toy until the climax of the film (he gets physically abused several times, including getting swatted as a rat and stepped on as a roach).

Animation Bump: While not on par with the Disney Animated Canon and only a slight step up from the show's visuals, itself some of the highest-quality animation on television at the time, the animation here is noticeably more fluid and the backgrounds are much lusher than the series ever had, thanks to a movie-sized budget. Also justified, in that 90 minutes of TV-quality animation wouldn't be easy to look at on a big screen.

 DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp / int_7fbb2a3
comment
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Aside from her unseen second wish, every wish Webby used made a delicate situation unnecessarily unstable. Her wish for a baby elephant nearly blew their cover on keeping Genie a secret from Scrooge, and her wish to bring her toys to life was the straw that broke the camel's back, arguably causing the chain of events in the rest of the movie. In her defense, she was also the reason they got hold of the lamp in the first place. When Dijon finds the lamp, Genie dissuades him from giving it to Merlock by pointing out that Dijon could wish for a fortune of his own. As Genie mournfully tells Scrooge later on; "I didn't know he'd wish for your fortune!" This also gets Dijon turned into a pig when Merlock gets the lamp himself.

Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: In the movie, Genie mentions that Merlock wished for Atlantis to sink and the 79 AD Mt. Vesuvius eruption that buried Pompeii, as a result of not being able to book vacations at either. The Comic-Book Adaptation adds that Merlock was also responsible for the creation of anchovy pizza. When Scrooge learns the extent of Dijon's wish for his fortune, he discovers that Dijon now owns his mansion, his factories, and even his spat collection.

What Happened to the Mouse?

comment
What Happened to the Mouse?: Although Dijon goes on to appear in the TV series, Genie/Gene is never seen again (ironically Merlock, who has a reason not to reappear, DOES return for a couple video game appearances down the road). In the movie itself, Mrs. Beakley isn't seen again after she faints away from seeing Merlock transforms the money bin into an Ominous Floating Castle. Launchpad also never appears again after the plan to infiltrate the Money Bin begins; he's last seen flying Scrooge above the bin so he can parachute onto the roof. It's unclear what happens to Collie Baba's treasure, which was portrayed as Scrooge's life-long obsession in the first two-thirds of the film. Did the Genie's transformation reverse every wish he ever granted? Then presumably Scrooge doesn't have the treasure anymore and will have to rediscover it someday, from wherever it was returned to.

Didn't Think This Through
 DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp / int_8d0785d5
comment
Didn't Think This Through: Webby does this twice with her wishes. For her first wish, she asks for a baby elephant, without considering how she's going to explain where said elephant came from to the grownups; in any case, the elephant quickly runs amok and has to be wished away. Later, she wishes for her toys to come to life without stopping to think that she might not be able to control them. They likewise run amok, and again a wish has to be wasted in getting rid of them. Merlock himself suffers this as he finds out the hard way that transforming into a rat to search a house is not a good idea. When Genie convinces Dijon to be his master, he never imagined particular repercussions that could have, like Dijon wishing to have the fortune and estate of the world's wealthiest duck transferred to himself. Justified in his case, as he was desperate to get Dijon to not turn him over to Merlock and didn't have time to think about it quickly.

Wasn't That Fun?: Scrooge and company take a wild ride down a raging underground river in a wicker basket in order to get out of the treasure trove of Collie Baba. Once it's all over, Louie says "I wouldn't mind doing that again, now that I know you can live through it."

Laser-Guided Karma: After Merlock previously stole Collie Baba's treasure from him, Scrooge later uses the lamp (the one item Merlock wanted from it) to wish it back. For an extra bonus, it ends up flattening Merlock in his rat form as it magically appears.

Unfortunate Item Swap: In his haste to escape from Merlock and Dijon at the Archaeological Society Ball, Scrooge accidentally runs into a dining cart and drops the lamp he was carrying onto the floor near a similar-looking gravy boat that he grabs by mistake, unknowingly leaving behind the lamp (and Genie in it) for Dijon to find. It isn't until after arriving at the Money Bin - now wished into Dijon's possession - that Scrooge realizes that he grabbed the wrong item.

 DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp / int_a6c97a15
comment
Benevolent Genie: The genie is a curious but good-natured fellow who even tells the nephews that he is "eternally grateful" when they first free him. He takes no pleasure in granting wishes that are liable to cause trouble or are otherwise harmful, but he can't resist for long before he is somehow compelled into bringing it into existence anyway. He even warns them early on to try and keep the wishes relatively subtle, as flashy displays of his magic invariably cause trouble. Not least of which is a former master of his, an immortal sorcerer who has a talisman that gives him limitless wishes and a very cruel nature. Two other wishes the genie was forced to grant him included sinking Atlantis back when it was a prime vacation spot after the sorcerer couldn't get a reservation, and causing the eruption of Mount Vesuvius (in his words, "And poor Pompeii! Mt. Vesuvius never would've blown its top if Merlock hadn't blown his!"). The genie openly weeps when recounting these facts.

Then, at prison, he mourns as rain falls and it finishes just as Scrooge makes a plan to infiltrate the Money Bin.

Oh, Crap!: Genie gets this at the Archaeological Society Ball upon discovering that the person whose cape he was using as a napkin is none other than Merlock. Luckily for him, Merlock doesn't notice him and Genie slips away to warn Scrooge that Merlock is at the ball. While going through the laser hallway, a stray laser ripped the directions in half and leaves Louie (and cockroach Merlock) in a predicament (Merlock's horrified gasp says it all). Louie gets his tail feathers scorched and is thrown back to the start again. Everyone (but especially Dijon) when Merlock finally gets hold of the lamp.

Shadow Archetype

comment
Shadow Archetype: As the movie progresses, it becomes apparent that Merlock is this to Scrooge. The early points of the plot showcase Scrooge's petty qualities such as his greed and social climbing, which are immediately exacerbated when he discovers Genie's powers and the potential they could grant him. However his redeeming qualities lead him to start caring about Genie as a person, and the loyalty he instilled into his relatives and employees save him during his Darkest Hour. Merlock by contrast, while dismissive of the superficial money and treasures that Scrooge savours, covets Genie's power over anything, having gained notoriety for using his wishes for extremely petty or cruel purposes, and Dijon and Genie only serve him by force and intimidation, leaving him for dead the moment they believe his control over them is null.

Immortality Seeker
 DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp / int_d959f4db
comment
Immortality Seeker: Merlock used to be the genie's master centuries ago before the genie's lamp was lost to him. The reason he survived for so long is because his first wish was for the genie to make him immortal. So, having already achieved this goal, his only real objective in the present is to retrieve the lamp and Take Over the World.

comment
Reset Button: There are three of these in the movie, and all of them are counter-wishes to erase bad wishes the Genie was forced to grant. The first two are at the mansion with two of Webby's wishes (the first one for a baby elephant, and the second one to bring her stuffed animal collection to life) that make the result of her wishes disappear, with the lamp then going into Scrooge's possession afterwards. The third Reset Button wish, however, erases all the negative wishes forced on Scrooge and his family by Dijon and Merlock in the third act of the film.

comment
The Chew Toy: Merlock may be evil, but he also goes through a good deal of physical humiliation before he gets the lamp. This includes getting swallowed by a stuffed tiger, swatted by Mrs. Beakley, zapped by a laser, and stepped on. Being Merlock's underling (and nowhere near as menacing), Dijon gets it even worse, being the frequent target for his master's temper, along with a lot of slapstick while trying to help him persue the lamp.

Guile Heroine: Webby briefly uses her wits on Scrooge toward the beginning of the movie. When Scrooge is a little reluctant to let her have the oil lamp (despite having declared it "hardly worth taking"), she picks up a bejeweled crown and remarks that if he doesn't want her to have the lamp, "this is pretty too."

O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Played for laughs after they find the treasure. Scrooge says that while he'll keep some of the relics, most of them will be donated to museums. The triplets are understandably all taken aback at Scrooge of all people showing such charity and selflessness. Then Scrooge admits he's doing it for a hefty tax break and the relieved and even amused triplets are left assured that's all right with the world.

 DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp / int_e888fbd8
comment
No Man Should Have This Power: Scrooge finally wins back the lamp for his final wish. He considers the genie as he is, is too dangerous. The potential for mischief and mayhem is enormous, and realizes any sane person would seal the lamp at the center of the Earth where its power can never be used again. Everyone begs him not to, as Genie will be lost forever. Happily, Scrooge had his own alternative solution all along.

Complaining About Rescues They Don't Like: When Merlock crashes the Archaeological Society Ball in bear form, Genie tosses the lamp into a chandelier and drags Scrooge in with him. Scrooge starts complaining about being stuck in the lamp, even though he would've probably been killed by Bear-Merlock if Genie hadn't pulled him in.

It Belongs in a Museum: Deconstructed by Scrooge. He wants the treasure of Collie Baba not to hoard all of it in his money bin, but to donate most of it to museums, as the tax break is worth far more money than just keeping it in a zero-interest vault. Mainly, Scrooge is after the bragging rights for finding a legendary treasure.

Never Found the Body
 DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp / int_f516f938
comment
Never Found the Body: Merlock's first wish was to live forever. He may have survived the Disney Villain Death (presuming there were no catches to his immortality). Of course, note that he was screaming as he fell. Then again, who wouldn't? That being said, all the Genie's wishes were undone when he was changed into a boy (as evidenced by Dijon changing back from being a pig), so supposing he survived the fall, Merlock might well have wasted away from being thousands of years old like the lamp did. Perhaps as a Mythology Gag, Merlock DID return alive and well in a couple Disney video games, though their chronological relationship to the film isn't clear.

Darkest Hour: As the climax rolls around, Dijon gets the lamp and wishes himself a fortune... by taking Scrooge's. He takes everything from him: the Money Bin, his enterprise, even his house. What little money the team is left with had to be given up to get Scrooge back from Dijon's goons. And then Merlock takes the lamp and raises a giant castle in the middle of Duckburg.

Dark and Troubled Past: Genie heavily implies to Huey, Dewey and Louie that Merlock forced him to kill thousands of people. It does not show very much in the beginning, but as the story progresses it becomes apparent that Genie is so haunted by his past that mere shadows of birds and mentions of wishes are potential triggers.
