The Arabian Nights, episode of the Rankin/Bass series Festival of Family Classics (1972-1973), inspired by different tales of the collection, also including Aladdin. The Wonders of Aladdin is a 1961 film directed by Mario Bava and Henry Levin and starring Donald O'Connor as Aladdin. This film has a more working-class focus: Aladdin helps the prince ( Mario Girotti) and princess (as does a fakir) but never becomes one and ends up in a romantic relationship with his neighbor, Djalma ( Noelle Adam). The genie ( Vittorio De Sica) can grant only three wishes (although what constitutes as a single wish is quite malleable, probably due to his sympathies with Aladdin) and shrinks with each one, which is leading to his eternal rest after 12,000 years. Alladin Ka Beta ( Son of Alladin) is a 1955 Indian Hindi-language action film, it follows the story of the son of Alladin. The story of Sinbad the Sailor was also a late addition to the 1,001 Nights, even though the story had been around – independently – for some time before the eighteenth century.

Aladdin, the 1992 animated feature by Walt Disney Feature Animation (currently the best-known retelling of the story). In this version, several characters are renamed or amalgamated. For instance, the Sorcerer and the Sultan's vizier were combined into one character named Jafar, while the Princess is renamed Jasmine. They have new motivations for their actions. The Genie of the Lamp only grants three wishes and desires freedom from his role. A sentient magic carpet replaces the ring's genie, while Jafar uses a royal magic ring to find Aladdin. The names "Jafar" and "Abu", the Sultan's delight in toys, and their physical appearances are borrowed from the 1940 film The Thief of Bagdad. The setting is moved from China to the fictional Arabian city of Agrabah, and the structure of the plot is simplified.

Aladdin and the Magic Lamp’ shares a number of plot features with a later European fairy tale written by Hans Christian Andersen in the nineteenth century: ‘The Tinder Box’. That story contains a number of common fairy-tale tropes: the magical device (a tinder box; a magic lamp and ring), a magic helper with the ability to grant wishes (a dog in Andersen’s story, rather than a genie), the ‘rags to riches’ motif, an evil magician (a witch in Andersen’s story rather than a male sorcerer), and a beautiful princess. We have summarised the plot of ‘The Tinder Box’ here so you can see just how closely it follows some of the key details of the Aladdin story. Thereafter, too, he can come across as greedy, someone who – thanks to the gift of the magic lamp, which he does little to earn – merely has to summon his loyal servant, the genie, to gain whatever he wishes. In the original story, he shows no interest in the princess’s personality or feelings: whether she wants to marry him or not doesn’t seem to cross his mind, as he has her bridegroom thrown into the damp privy and abducts her to his own home.
