Not directly Aladdin related but many Disney animators worked on both movies so here’s the trailer of Beauty and the Beast in 3D. No need to take out your 3D glasses though because it’s in classic 2D. I’m blown away by the beautiful and rich colors the ballroom has never looked so beautiful. The Lion King is rumored to be next if successful it’s paving the way for a potential Aladdin 3D conversation in a few years.

My new favorite moment from A Whole New World. The clouds are beautifully drawn, slightly transparent so that Aladdin and Jasmine’s bodies shine through. Love their expressions of excitement as they swoosh through the night.

I saw Prince of Persia Sand of Time today, certain elements like the prince (Dastan) being quick on his feet and a good sword fighter did remind me of Aladdin. It’s a nice movie, not a really strong story but I liked some characters, Dastan the best. The princess, Tamina was okay but I would’ve liked to see her a better fighter as she’s supposed to be strong and independent. The cinematography looked really beautiful and love the music.
Now let’s see if there’s a sequel by 2012 as people seem to think there’ll be. If there ever will be a live-action remake of Aladdin I can imagine it would look and feel like PoP. In the mean time watch the Prince of Persia trailer set on One Jump Ahead

Check out this vid of the new Disney water show World of Color where all our favorite characters, this includes Al&Jas + Genie, come too life through an amazing spectacle of water control. The shows at Disney’s California Adventure.

Just caught a summer vacation Disneyland Paris ad banner at a Dutch website featuring Genie. Captured it and strung it together in one image.

Disney revealed today that the popular “Disney’s Aladdin – A Musical Spectacular” at Disney’s California Adventure theme park will not close as previously announced.

Disney also notes that as part of the ongoing improvement/expansion of Disney’s California Adventure, construction will begin around the theater on August 15, but they will keep the “Aladdin” show up and running as much as possible.

And while you continue saving money for a trip to Disneyland watch Aladdin a Musical Spectular in HD to get an idea what to expect. Watch 2:40
“She not gonna fall for some streetrat”
“Streetrat! You got three movies, a TV show and…”
Hilarious!

The Disneyland California show will close August 15. 2010 after having played for 6 years. Go and see it before it’s too late if you get the chance.

Cracked.com carries a Cosmo spoof featuring the Disney girls while taking a good look at what Disney fairytales are supposed to teach little children about being an orphan, love and marriage. Take Aladdin for example it teaches kids, specially young girls that a rich girl runs away meets poor boy, he is supposely get killed, comes back to rich girl in disguise, takes her on a romantic night out and she marries him 2 days later.

Dating tip from Jasmine:
"He’s only lying about who he is because he thinks you’re shallow and superficial. LOVE HIM FOR IT."

Well maybe not 365 icons, I bet if someone would want to there’s enough Jasmine in the cannon (films, series, video game) to have a ‘Daily Jas’.  There’s a  LiveJournal icon community called  365disney and user esprit_serein made a start at making icons for spefic themes like Flight, Back, Magic.  The icons I’ve seen so far  are very pretty.

Another spot by AladdinsGenie @ Aladdin Central the Aladdin Jeans Shop at Jalan Cihampelas, Bandung somewhere in western Java, Indonesia.

It was announced on March 18 by the Oriental Land Company (OLC) that Tokyo DisneySea will receive a new attraction in 2011 based on Aladdin. Jasmine’s Flying Carpets will allow guests to manueuver their vehicles up and down to a maximum height of approximately 16 feet as well as tilt the vehicle forward and backwards. Located in the Arabian Coast area, next to Sindbad’s Storybook Voyage, each of the 16 vehicles will hold two rows of two guests each.

With a total approximate investment of $22 million dollars, Jasmine’s Flying Carpets is anticipated to open in Summer of 2011. Other attractions anticipated in 2011 at the Resort include Mickey’s Philharmagic and Cinderella’s Fairy Tale Hall, both in Tokyo Disneyland.

Over at Eurobricks, a Lego forum I’ll lurke. Member The Penguin made Lego minifig versions of Aladdin and Jafar. The figs are custom made. Some people make their own Lego pieces by clay or other methots in this case Aladdin’s hair, fez and sword are homemade. The Jafar minifig has cape, shoulderpads and snakestaff specially made. Their faces and printing on torso and legs are selfmade decals. So the only Lego Company parts are Aladdin’s legs, torso and head and Jafar’s legs, which is a slope normally used in roofs, torso and head.
