evil sorcerer named Jafar gets Aladdin imprisoned for stealing. However, Jafar’s real motive behind arresting Aladdin is to have Aladdin go collect a lamp for him from the Cave of Wonders. (4) To be free from jail, Aladdin accepts the offer and crosses the threshold when he enters the Cave of Wonders. The Cave of Wonders as named shows Aladdin many wonderful piles of gold

Although the use of animation inherently calls for more caricatured characters, Disney’s Aladdin and The Return of Jafar are full of harmful middle-eastern Arab stereotypes. Almost all the characters, save for Aladdin and Jasmine, who are the most “white” out of almost all of the other Arabs (they have middle class American accents, are of a lighter skin tone) are painted as the Violent Arab, for example; the shopkeeper attempts to slice Iago for attempting to steal some grapes. The villains are

Aladdin tries his best to overcome challenging obstacles so as to win Jasmine’s heart because his character archetype is searching for love hero. Furthermore, in defeating Jafar to rescue Jasmine and Agrabah, Aladdin performs the revenge for betrayed him at the Cave and saving the world. He says, “somehow…I gotta go back and set things right.” This explains how Aladdin transforms into a hero, and that good always defeats evil

Jealousy, it is what gets the best and, of course, the worst of people. Iago in Shakespeare's play "Othello" is one of the worst villains out there. Other villains, such as Scar in Disney's "The Lion King", Jafar in Disney's "Aladdin", and Mother Gothel from Disney's "Tangled" have closely related motives and jealous personalities. All four betray and kill for reasons they believe are going to further the lives they intend to lead after their master plans. The stem of the jealousy roots from never

countries, in which the United States was also a part of this war, and they sent troops to Kuwait to restore order. Just like Aladdin, he tried to restore order in Agrabah. The three movies were named: Aladdin, The Return of Jafar, and The King of Thieves. All three movies contained similar stereotypes so when explaining them, I will be explaining the situation from one of the movies in order to highlight it in a clearer way. To start, I will be discussing the characters

initially believes that Jasmine is merely a commoner, is quick to fall in love with her, though later her identity is exposed and she returns back to the palace. Aladdin eventually is caught and imprisoned when Jafar, a menace acting as the royal vizier for the king (Jasmine’s father), disguised as an old man, tricks Aladdin into retrieving a lamp for him. Before Jafar could kill Aladdin and claim the lamp for himself, Aladdin manages to

It was conflict between Iraq and 34 countries in the U.N., including the United States, trying to return order to Kuwait.” (Nelson, 2009, p.1) With the release of this movie coming just one year after the end of the war, it is safe to say that perhaps Disney considered some current issues in the making of their films. Disney films have been around for

The Black Death was a disease that plagued Europe during the years 1348 to 1350. This disease was one of the most deadly in Europe and killed more than half of Europe’s population. This pandemic became widespread through human, flea, and rodent contact, and it killed many in a span of a couple of days. The Black Death was not well understood during the 1300’s. Because of Lack of knowledge of the disease, there was debate among observers about the origin and cause of the disease, and also how to
