Although I have to critic -- Histoire d'Aladdin ou la lampe merveilleuse isn't an Arab fairy tale. I think of it as more of a folktale, but it does have fairy tale elements, so yeah, but it was written by a French guy (Antoine Galland). That's why the baguette amuses me. |
It seems like lately HT has just been doing videos for certain movies just because they can, such as their videos for The Little Mermaid, Ghostbusters, Terminator 2:Judgment Day, and before you know it they'll be making one for Back To The Future. |

Oh yeah! I see that. That actually seems more likely as to why it's a baguette than my amusement.
(Also, I suspect many fans here know facts about the story's origin.) |

A Disney song be romantic? You ask too much, my friend

Or maybe the trailer is right. Perhaps that is just how cartoon bread is drawn and I'm thinking way too much into this?  |

Haha 
But I really do not know that the Aladdin and Jasmine are so young. |
