You should watch The Adventures of Sinbad

[@SisterPegasus]

Sorry for replying before finishing the video, but PLEEEAAAASE watch the animated 2003 Sinbad movie, and never ever miss on watching a film because of a Rotten Tomatoes rating (not saying they don't make good points, but many movies that are poorly rated there are actually great, and as a Mythology freak I LOVED the 2003 animated film and thought the voice-acting was spot-on). Please please please watch and do a Revisited video!

I really love how diverse this channel is becoming. When I started watching Messed Up Origins it was mostly about Disney. Now we have so many different kinds of videos - the Arabian Nights, Greek Mythology and so on - he even made a video on a murder last week. I am really looking forward to seeing more stuff - especially stories which aren't very famous. Thanks to Jon I have learned more History than I ever did in school.

Shreyasi Mukherjee I was just thinking that the other day. I’m especially excited about the murder ones cause I think (and hope) he’ll talk about stories that aren’t very well known. Unlike the ones featured over and over and over on *EVERY* true crime channel on YT as well as constantly covered throughout A&D, Tru, Discovery, Oxygen, WE! and of course the ID channel (on regular ol’ fashion TV)

Ah, yes. Claims he wasn't given all his wealth when that's actually exactly what happened every single time he survived by sheer dumb luck alone. Boat smashed? Everyone died? It's okay, Sinbad didn't die! In fact, he befriended the natives and their king immediately and was handed riches to take back home! Abandoned on an island? It's okay, Sinbad managed to somehow flag down a ship (as he is so capable) and it was *also* the ship that abandoned him earlier, what luck! Oh, they didn't sell any of his stuff even though they're merchants and thought Sinbad was dead? Strange, but since he's actually alive let's just give it all back to him so *he* can sell it all and go back home! Shipwrecked on an island of monsters? Well of course Sinbad survives! How? He just does, don't question it. Also, he finds random riches or another king he befriends immediately for no reason or robs the dead, who cares! The point is that Sinbad is so lucky and so rich, but he had to "work" for it first or something! These stories aren't very well thought out. The man inherited riches that he squandered, then set out on adventures where he was just handed new riches to replace his squandered wealth with even more than he had in each progressive tale. Not a very strong "work hard and you too can be rich" story if you ask me.

Salaam Zahra Heydari My favourite piece of classical music is Scheherazade o.p. 35 by Rimsky Korsakov. My favourite classical stories are Laila and Majnun and Khosrau and Shirin by Ganjavi Nizami. Also firm favourites are Heer and Ranjha by Syed Waris Shah and The Myna from Peacock Garden by Naiyer Masud. But I must say that the 'translation' of Scheherazade by Sir Richard Burton' has made my wish to get a copy of the original with another translation. One thing I have noted is that in no way is this translation suitable for children. It is definitely PGA. I am also a bit scandalized by the seemingly free use of holy quotes intermingled with pure lascivious content which goes absolutely contrary to the Sharia of Islam. So once again I would like to know the source for this work and what the original actually said. Do you know where I can acquire a copy of the original. If necessary I can ask my husband to translate it for me. My husband is fully literate in Punjabi, Farsi, Arabic, Urdu, Pushtu and Hindi.

Sinbad The Porter then left To join a crew on the ship to then die of scurvy a week later. Because Sinbad the wealthy man Was a tall tale Telling Titillating Talking Confidence man Who Actually gained all his wealth By taking a trust fund or from his father and then convincing all other rich people around him That his suits weren't cheap, His steaks were only of the finest Bred animals, And that building Huge temples with his name on them makes them worth even more. They believed he was a genius because he told them he was And could make them even more money by giving him their's. As a hobby he loved convincing poor people That they could either become as wealthy as him if they join the navy, Which he probably owns, Or that they should be content in staying poor because becoming rich Is dangerous And only for heroes of the highest caliber. Being that the whole line of adventures was told as a flashback from a Rich man I would more likely believe the latter...

"I did it all through hard work" *is given a bunch of money, wastes a bunch of it, and then uses whats left to buy a boat to go on adventures* yeah that totally sounds like hard work to me. What if porter Sinbad can't afford his own boat sailor Sinbad? what then?

In regards to your closing commentary: doing what you love is never easy, but once you've done it, you remember why you love it. I'm right there with ya 😎👌

I didn't watch nor did I know of the movie but there is an anime series called "Magi: Adventure of Sinbad", and after this video the I realized that the anime has some aspects of them but aren't exactly like the origins. Then again that happens a lot with anime it still really awesome to watch though. It Also has a sequel series called "Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic", which is also pretty awesome to watch.

Thank you for making quarantine interesting

I’m sorry but in the Arabic version his name is SinDbad Sinbad just sounds ridiculous. And Allah means god in Arabic, the same god of Christians. Arabic Christians pray to Allah as well. Loved your video btw

SINBAD LEGEND OF THE SEVEN SEAS WAS AN AMAZING MOVIE

[@JayRedGear]

Never understood why that movie and Treasure Planet were released poorly.

[@haleyangel549]

"...fanciest food and the most delicious clothes..." 😂 it be like that sometimes

[@TheeKingRayzor]

I'm always going to know Sinbad as the comedian.

[@GetPrettyWithPuff]

right 😂

[@chanmarr8118]

LaToya Wrestleology I was gonna say this but I doubt anyone would know who I was talking about lol

[@cephas5053]

Chan Marr Lol

[@AnonYoBizness]

There's a Anime that references the night of 1000 tales, and Sinbad is one of the main characters called Magi. Sinbad also gets his own show and i think they land alot of Sinbad characteristics in the show.

[@TheBlindDyslexic]

God, I remember going to see one of two of the 70s Sinbad movies. One had Patrick Troughton (2nd Doctor of Doctor Who), another Tom Baker (4th Doctor) as a villainous sorcerer.

[@isaiahadams1996]

Scott McCowan Me too.

[@laurahubbard6906]

Tom Baker's performance was one of the reasons he was cast as the 4th Doctor.

[@TheBlindDyslexic]

@@laurahubbard6906 He would later go onto play Blalock in a Remington Steele episode.

[@ANImeme88]

All I can think about is Magi's Sinbad. The specials which featured Sinbad's adventures before the canon resembles the original in some parts.

"I had to earn this! I had a bunch of money and connections from birth to get me started, along with an education to help me speak properly to kings. But it was totally the gumption which mattered."

[@Passions5555]

Check your privilege Sinbad 😅

[@ImpeachObamaASAP2010]

and random boats kept sailing by right when i needed it so i could make tons of money and get home no problem. totally all me though.

[@emmelsmusic79]

Then Sinbad Porter gets a rock and smashes Sinbad sailors head in. And took all of Sinbad sailors wealth. Thus proving that he understood the moral of each story.

[@GoOgleAccount-rq7cs]

Yessss! Been waiting for this episode, this reminds me of when I was little and I watched popeye all the time

[@merryberry1113]

Same. Do you eat your spinach

[@olly2027]

MerryBerry 111 yes

[@kimanihope6463]

Love your content! I’ll never look at the stories I grew up on the same again 🥰🤣

[@jjyyoou]

Did anyone laugh when he said "the most fancy food and most delicious clothes"? No? Just me
