Aladdin

Aladdin Takes Place In The Future.

Here's a magic carpet ride for you - there's a scene in which Genie says that Aladdin's clothing is "so 3rd century." It's established that Genie was locked in a lamp for the past 10,000 years, so he couldn't have known 3rd century fashion. With that in mind, Aladdin is actually taking place in the future - at least 10,300 A.D.

We are witnessing a post-apocalyptic wasteland, where some Arabic culture managed to survive. Suddenly the flying carpet can be attributed to advanced technology, not magic. lago, the witty parrot, is genetically engineered and understands human speech instead of imitating it. Hopefully our modern day technology can fix a blown mind, because damn. Oh, and people say that's why the Genie was capable of performing impressions of long-dead (by 10,300), legendary famous people like Jack Nicholson and Groucho Marx.
