can you kill the Djinn in human form?


i've seen both movies but there's one thing i wonder about. can anyone kill or even harm the Djinn when he is in human form? i mean it can't be impossible if he is powerless in that form until he hears a wish from someone. so killing him in human form before he asks you for your wish could be possible right?

The human form is only a guise, it does not change that he is still a djinn, which are far beyond pain, or death. If the Djinn were about to be killed they could change back to the Djinn in a split second, so how would the temporary human guise make them susceptible to death.

I don't think they are able to be killed, only suppressed.

True, but remeber he was shot in human form then changed over. So I don't think the human half can be kill, since he is immortal and all. Funny thing is I never thought about can the human half be killed before, nice topic. Now you got me to thinking about other movies.



I always cheer for the bad guy!

Wtf, did you even watch the movie? The first meeting between the heroine and the Djinn involves him giving her a freebie wish in which she asks him to blow his brains out. Then he explains that he cannot be killed (but he does feel pain). The human form is just a disguise, he's still a djinn.
