Disney Movies: Aladdin

Aladdin was released on November 25, 1992 and is the 31st Walt Disney Animated Classic.

The Disney version was taken from the story The Book of One Thousand and One Nights. Several characters and plot elements are also based on the 1940 version of The Thief of Bagdad. As is usual with Disney film adaptations, many aspects of the traditional story were changed for the movie—for instance, the setting is changed from a mythical Islamic "China" to a fictional Arabian City, Agrabah. It was released at the peak stretch of the Disney renaissance era beginning with The LIttle Mermaid. It was the most successful film of 1992, with over $217 million in domestic revenues and over $504 million worldwide.
