While Aladdin might be a Disney classic, the movie’s magical lamp actually makes no sense upon a re-watch. Aladdin is a classic story where the protagonist seemingly learns the timeless lesson of being careful about what you wish for. The 1992 animated Disney movie sees Aladdin transform from a young thief into a rich prince when he frees the Genie from a magic lamp, and the Genie grants him three wishes as a result. Aladdin then learns he should have stayed true to himself when he woos Jasmine, only for him to fear she won’t love his real self thanks to this lie.
