An interesting story that I have is this: My teacher in elementary school lived next to a Disney animator. She used to drink with him after work but he was obsessed with this enemy of Aladdin but he was working on in. He created Jafar and asked my teacher what she thought about it. She said it looked great and told him to submit it. He did and that is the character in the film. He bought her and her husband a cruise in thanks because he made millions off the movie because everyone thought it would flop. She also go to meet Robin Williams because they got to drink together at her friend's house.

I also did research on this story a while ago and found that this story was created by a woman who was held as a prisoner in a palace. She was sentenced to execution but she did not want to die. On the day of her execution she pleaded with the king, asking him to spare her life. The king denied her resquest so she said that she can tell him a story to save her life. So she made the story of Aladdin and when she had ran out of ideas for her story she said “ You have to wait until tomorrow for more”. Each day after that was the same routine. She would tell part of the story, be sent back to her cell and thinks about where he story should lead next, and the cycle repeats. She lived for a long time until one day when the king asked for the next part of the tale, the woman told him that she had no more to tell for she had ran out of ideas. Furious with her response, the king sentenced the woman to death

@sidra8711 Жыл бұрын
In 1001 Arabian nights the king shahrayar got cheated on by his wife with one of the slaves so he killed them both and one day accidentally he caught his brother’s wife cheating on her husband also on his way to his palace accompanied by his brother they meet a women which is hold hostage by a genne who loves her in a box and some times he lets her out and sleeps next to her . The women tells the king and his brother her story and that she had slept with more than 750 men which she had kept a souvenir from each one of them (rings) without the knowledge of the genne and eventually she invites both of them to sleep with her . After all of these cheating women that the king had met he became the enemy of women by marrying the virgin girls in his kingdom and executing them after sleeping with them of course his actions lead to a serious problems among his citizens because all of them escaped with their daughters from the country and no unmarried girl is left in the kingdom so his minister shows his concerns to his smart beautiful daughter shahrazad in order to give him a solution to this mess . She tells her father to let her marry the king and she will stop his aggressive action and that’s what happened so in each night shahrazad spends with shahrayar she tells him a story and never finishes it until the next night so at this rate they spend together 1001 nights filled with crazy wonderful stories . So in the last night when she had told every story that she knew the king orders for her execution she tells him to have mercy on her in the favor of her 3 sons with him he eventually discover that he loves her and enjoy her company so he retreat his first decision and they live happily ever after

You just have to wonder: Why should anyone bother to spend a zillion dollars to make a cinema version of a classic fairy tale if they can't make it the way it's originally told because they're quaking in their shoes either about upsetting parents who assume their oh-so-delicate offspring will be traumatized for life, or about boring people out of their skulls because "they're basically dolts with short attention spans"? And, knowing this can be the case, why should we spend OUR money settling for bastardized classics?* I would rather trust them to trust us enough to give us a supremely displayed illustration of the original version. But in this wretched world where humans act so...as Spock would put it, "illogically", trust is so hard to come by, and so easy to betray. One could almost say it's worth its weight in gold. 🤨 😕 🙄 😒 *The answer is, of course, that even bastardizations can entertain, educate, and inform if they're written and presented intelligently and skillfully, and the new developments are intriguing enough...which I'm not too sure about in the case of Disney's *Aladdin* . 😉

Disney assigning the three wishes concept to their genie came from a basic accepted “rule” of genies established in a 1940 movie Thief of Baghdad They got it from (funny enough) a French humorous fairytale that has no mention of genies or jinn called The Ridiculous Wishes by Charles Perrault (1697) in which a woodcutter complaining of his lot is given three wishes by a spirit. The wife convinced her husband to give it time to really consider what they should wish for. However, that night while hungry by the fire, he absentmindedly wishes for sausage which is immediately granted. His wife begins breading him for the mishap and in a fit of frustration wishes a sausage to be stuck to her nose. They then have to use the last remaining wish to un-affix said sausage That was my morning well spent :)

A couple of things...I have always thought that the city in the story of Aladin was the city of Xian, which was a terminus of the silk road and an ancient capital of China. The description of the cave where the lamp was closely resembles a Ming dynasty description of the stuff in the tomb of the first emperor (the one with the terra cotta warriors). The hill of that tomb is close to the city of Xian. Near that city, but closer than the tomb mound, is a series of hot springs which have been used as public baths for a very long time (they were still in use when we visited Xian in '88 and as far as I know, still are). Not that this means the lamp, the genie, the jeweled windowed palace, etc. are real, but the original story teller probably set it in a place with which he or she was familiar.

Even if you're a "no-good disappointment", you can still get your ass off that couch, you don't need a genie, just believe and hope. Aladdin's fate changed, not when he got the lamp, but when he finally decided to be the merchant of his "uncle". That's a change of life for him, in the context of the story. He probably changed his mind that night when he saw his mother crying, but you should not wait for loved ones to cry, just so you can start to realize what wrong you were doing in your life.

Disney's Aladdin seems to be more based on the movie "The Thief of Bagdad" (1940), than the story "Aladdin and the wonderful lamp". Honestly, watch the movie and you'll begin to see literally ALL the similarities to that movie, with only minor things changed to make it fit the Aladdin fairytale. We have abu the sidekick (and somewhat main character) who is an animal sidekick AND a human throughout the movie - we have Jafar (Jaffar) - the princess the (other) lead falls in love with - The garden the princess is first introduced in (and if you watch the original first meeting of Jasmine and Aladdin, you'll see this is pretty much the same scene as "Thief of Bagdad" - Genie with three wishes whom the master tricks at the very beginning - Royal person who disguises themselves to go out amongst the people - A sultan who has an insane affection for toys - and SO much more. Would be fun to see a followup on this video, about Disney's Aladdin and The Thief of Bagdad similarities.
