What happens

DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp (also known as DuckTales: The Movie) is a 1990 American animated adventure fantasy film based on the animated television series DuckTales and loosely based on the tale of Aladdin and the Wonderful Lamp. Produced and directed by Bob Hathcock and from a screenplay by Alan Burnett, the film features the series' cast of Alan Young, Terrence McGovern, Russi Taylor, and Chuck McCann, with Richard Libertini, Rip Taylor and Christopher Lloyd voicing new characters. The events of the film take place between the third and fourth seasons of DuckTales. The film was released to theaters by Walt Disney Pictures on August 3, 1990, and marked the first time Disney distributed an animated film that was not produced by Walt Disney Feature Animation. It was the first Disney animated film to be produced by Walt Disney Television Animation under the banner of Disney MovieToons and animated by Walt Disney Animation France S.A. The film was paired with the 1951 Donald Duck short Dude Duck for its theatrical release. A comic book adaption was released at the same time, with a cover identical to the theatrical poster. Although it received mixed to positive reviews from critics, the film underperformed at the box office, earning only $18.1 million on a $20 million budget, resulting in several planned DuckTales films being scrapped.
