"aladdin" also earned an additional academy award nomination for best original song and nominations for best sound and best sound effects editing, for a total of five nominations. "the lion king" earned two additional academy award nominations for best original song, giving it a total of four academy award nominations. howard ashman wrote several songs for "aladdin" before his death, but only three were ultimately used in the film. tim rice ultimately joined the project and completed the score and songs with alan menken. rice later went on to collaborate with elton john and hans zimmer for "the lion king" after abba had turned down the offer to write songs for the film. between the two in-house productions, disney diversified in animation methods and produced "the nightmare before christmas" (1993) with former disney animator tim burton.
