The original Aladdin story in One Thousand and One Nights is set in China (Aladdin is also Chinese), is based on a middle eastern folk tale, and was written and added to the book by a Frenchman. And then it's most recognizable incarnation (at least to a western audience) migrates the setting and characters to a fictional Arabic kingdom and gives him an American white guy voice. The character, Aladdin's, cultural identity as we know it is a little all over the place.
An American white guy voice from the 90s
Aladdin is the most stereotypical, tv trope, radalicious, woahhhh, duuude voice
It's like one or two steps away from being a Ninja turtle.
Throw in the fan theory that Disney's version takes place thousands of years in the future.
Yeah.. what? Please explain, you have my full attention
Wait. What? Have not heard that one.
It is a theory to explain how genie knows about things like automobiles and 20th century movie stars. It posits that these are only anachronisms if the story is set in the past, as commonly assumed. But setting it in the far distant future eliminates the problem. It also explains the apparent "magic" in the world as remnants of a fallen high-tech civilization.
Rajah the tiger? Genetic engineered. Magic carpet? Hover tech. Buried stop signs (video game only)? Ancient relic. It's really quite surprising how well this theory fits.
