Aladdin (1992)

Films on Trial

Aladdin (1992) is on trial this week. A whole new world or a step Jafar?

Gav mercilessly prosecutes, saying that the story is woeful and the use of stereotypes to depict middle eastern characters make this almost unwatchable. Alex and Ausy defend, looking at the film as the first Disney attempt at a story outside Western folk-tales that may have made many mistakes, but got some things right too.

All this with an impression of the parrot and a quiz all about voice actors in Disney history.
