Clements and Musker, 1992), this essay argues that such stereotypical representations are harmful because they naturalise (Lacey, 2009, p. 139) a simplified, Orientalist view of the countries considered a part of “the Orient.” Aladdin successfully targets a General audience (The Classification and Rating Administration, 2015) (Motion Picture Association of America, 2015) of mostly North Americans and Europeans, judging by its Blu-ray

“Oh, I come from a land, from a faraway place, where the caravan camels roam. Where they cut off your ear if they don’t like your face; it’s barbaric, but hey, it’s home” (Appendix 4). This is the first paragraph of the opening song in the movie Aladdin (1992), produced by Walt Disney Pictures. Admittedly, after complaints by the American Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (Breaux, 2010: 400), the company changed the lyrics for the home release. Nevertheless, by then, millions of people had already

a positive way. In the film “Aladdin” Disney makes us use our imagination through a magical lamp and a magic carpet that are being used to turn street rat Aladdin into a handsome prince. There are many favorites I had as a child with Disney, more specifically princess movies.

Throughout the film, Aladdin sees

that is expressed through the Disney film ‘Aladdin’ and how these elements affect the characters.

The tale of Aladdin is, thanks to Disney, a story that is well known outside the world/culture from which it originated. Of course, the entire anthology of 1001 Nights owes much of its modern publicity to outside voices who found the tales to be something worth translating and putting to paper. This type of treatment has resulted in a unique reproduction of an ancient text, which, as we have it now, is rife with depictions of the so-called “Orient.” The multitude of cultures must have looked, to

Although some might think the epic poem, Beowulf and the animated movie, Aladdin may have nothing in common, these two works actually have many relatable aspects. One of these common characteristics is the type of the plot that both of these works contain, the Hero’s Quest.

World lives today. From Disney movie ideas to the works of Aristotle my ideas and preconceptions have been altered for the better and for the duration of my life. The Disney movie “Aladdin” shows orientalizing and prejudice through its coloration of the characters, the facial transfiguration, and racism.
