Eh, the average person can't tell the difference between a Latino and an Arab just by looking at them, anyway.

Really? Well, that's pretty sad. Of coruse, it all depends on one's exposure to different cultures etc, so it is excusable in some cases.

I would rather they used a younger couple who looked more like Aladdin and Jasmine. I couldn't really care if they're celebrity or not, just so long as they look the part but I guess that misses the point of the advertising campaign.

That said I like the image as an older version of Aladdin and Jasmine. The adult Peter Pan is just wrong, I get the "young at heart" message but it just doesn't look right.

The Cinderella image (closely followed by Snow White) is still the best of these adverts.
