What the Ancients did for us.....

Some stereotypical scenes in Aladdin are that all imperial guards are big, fat, mean ,and clumsy.Another stereotypical image is that all old dudes are mean. Finally a stereotypical image in Aladdin is that all rulers have a trusted adviser that is really betraying them and has a secret lad were he makes potions and spells. Even though there are a lot of stereotypical images in this movie there are a few good examples of daily Islamic life. One example of this is that they made a really good example of the marketplace because they made it full, big, , busy, and put lots of people doing business.In conclusion i think this movie has a lot of stereotypical images and scenes but also has a few good examples of life in the Islamic world.

aladdin the movie has many obvious stereotypes. one of them is that most of them wear pointed shoes. another was the king always has a beard and a mustache. finally, most people in the movie all men and some women wear baggy pants. For exaple, the market people, the king, and
aladdinall wear baggy pants.

It Turns out that The Whole New World is Still full of Stereotypes

Our class was watching the movie Aladdin and was intsructed to look for stereotypes shown in the movie. Here are some of the things i observed in the movie

Rich people tend to show their rich in many ways. For example, princess jasmine owns a tiger, something very exotic that not many people have. also the princes that come to court her put on large spectacular shows when they ride through the streets of Agrabah. They also tend to be a complete jerk and stuck up.

The Islamic world seems to be home to many myths such as the magical lamp and flying carpets.

Finally, men usually have turbans and women usually cover their face with a veil, possibly for religious purposes.

A Place that's Totally NEW!!!!!!

When I hear the word Islam I think of deserts, men in turbans, and exotic animals. The movie Aladdin supports all of those things. They have many animals, like monkeys, tigers, and elephants, camels, and horses for transportation. All the men wore turbans, well almost all the men. Aladdin didn't wear one until he was a prince. On the streets there were all these booths of people trying to sell things to anyone who passes by. They are really strict about the law. In the movie it said she had to marry and it was such a big deal. Jasmine had to see all these suitors and choose one of them. And when she didn't she had to marry the sulton's advisor, but really didn't end up marrying him. Any way, these are all stereotypes. But there were defenitely no genes and magic lamps or magic flying carpets.

Aladdin Stereotypes

When watching the movie Aladdin, I've noticed some stereotypes in the movie. From the many stereotypes, some of them are:
1. They had Genies that come out of magical lamps and grants you 3 wishes.
2. They had magic carpets that can fly.
3. They had smart monkeys and tigers,
4. The princesses lived in a palace.
5. They had pointed shoes.
6. They were some weird hats.
7. The princess ends up marrying at some point.

Thank You~~~~~~~~~!!


p.s: I couldn't find any good pictures.... xD

MAGIC CARPETS! IN ISLAM! NO WAY!

Last week, we watched Aladdin and took notes on the movie. We watched the movie because it took place in Islam, the subject of our next chapter. I was really interesting by the way Disney interpretated Islamic culture. Sterotypes that I noticed were that there is hidden treasure in the desert, magic carpets, genies, turbans, and huge palaces.

Stariotypes on Islamis people

A stariotype could be "STOP THEIF STOP" or another one is they all were really baggy pants another one could be all saltons have BIG POOFY HATS. Another one i've seen isw they were pointed shoes.

STEREOTYPES OF THE ISLAMIC PEOPLE FROM ALADDIN NO NOT REALLY

FROM WATCHING ALADDIN, I LEARNED ABOUT MANY THINGS OF THE ISLAMIC PEOPLE. IF YOU TOOK SOMETHING, GUARDS WOULD ARREST YOU. YOU COULD EVEN BE EXECUTED. ALSO, THE KINGS OF THE ISLAMIC WORLD WERE CALLED SULTONS. ROYALS LIVED VERY WELL, BUT OTHERS WERE VERY POOR. I ALSO LEARNED THAT SULTONS WERE VERY VERY PROTECTIVE OF THEIR SONS OR DAUGHTERS AND NEVER ALLOWED THEM TO LEAVE THE PALACE...

Stereotypes form Aladdin

In the movie "Aladdin" one of the sterotypes was that all the upper class people wore turbans(hat like things) on their head. Like the Saltine, Aladdin (later into the movie when he becomes a prince),the advisor, and the people that worked for the advisor(the people that tried to capture/kill Aladdin).

When you think of Islam.....

What do you think of when you think about Islamic people? What people usual think about or classify a certain class of people as if a stereotype. Usually, people stereotype Islamic people in many different ways. One stereotype that people give islamic people is that they all have turbans on their headz. Another stereotype that is given to them is that they all live in desert-y kind of places. Lastly, people all believe that all Islamic people think that the sultant is a very plump, short man, which is untrue sometimes.

Aladdin Culture and Stereotypes

We've all watched Aladdin right? Okay, we know that genies don't exist and there aren't really any flying carpets around. Baggy pants, sure they could've worn those in Islamic times. Yes, maybe but that gives me a picture of a genie halloween costume. The movie gave a nice example of a palace. People did where turbans and still do, the movie isn't full of stereotypes it still shows culture. I don't think they wore pointy shoes though.

:DMelina was here

The Amazing Adventure of the Islamic World!!!!!!!!

We watched "Aladdin" in Mr. G's class. We noticed some of the different things about Islamic Cultures, and the sterotypes. I noticed that Islamic people like to sell different spices. They also sell things in their market outside. Also, sultan's usually marry off their daughters off underage, or often against their own will. Even though magical genies doesn't exist, but their lamps do. Islamic people have different pottery or lamps. In the movie, their are such things as carpets. But not FLYING carpets. They also have mustaches for every men. All the rich familes dress up in fine clothing. (Except Aladdin) Finally, the Islamic Culture has their own unique ways of life.

The Super Amazing Incredible Unbelievable Ultra Delicious Awesome Cool Stupendous Remarkable Stereotypes of Aladdin. =]

THE SUPER COOL FAT GENIE RIGHT HERE :D

WE WATCHED ALADDIN DURING HISTORY. IT WAS REALLY FUN AND INTERESTING THING. THE ONLY PART NOT FUN IS THIS PART WHERE WE HAVE TO FIND THE STEREOTYPES OF ALADDIN. WELL AT LEAST I FOUND SOME.
THESE ARE FEW STEREOTYPES I FOUND IN ALADDIN:

• THEY HAD SUPER COOL FAT GENIES IN LAMPS.
• THEY HAD LIVE CAVES THAT CAN THINK ON ITS OWN.
• THEY HAD NICE AND SMART ANIMALS MONKEYS AND TIGERS.
• THEY ALSO HAD SOMETHING ELSE THAT IS LIVE AND THAT CAN THINK ON ITS OWN AND IT IS THE MAGIC CARPET.
• THE ISLAM PEOPLE WORE ROUND HATS THAT POPS UP.
• THEY HAD FAT AND THINK SWORDS FOR THE SOLDIERS.
• THE PRINCESS IS SUPER PRETTY, BUT IN MY OPINION NO :D.
• THE PRINCESS END UP MARRYING THE PERSON THEY WISHED TO MARRY.

THESE ARE SOME STEREOTYPES I LEARNED FROM ALADDIN.

Stereotypes in Aladdin (Islamic world)

In the Islamic world, there are large palaces and big domes. There's also lots of camels and lots of things to buy in the market place. The stereotypes are that Islamic people are thieves just like the character Aladdin. Another one is that the sultan always have this mustache and they wear this fancy hat. Some people lived in the streets and had no food. There were genies and they grant three wishes. The Islamic world were sandy in some parts. The movie Aladdin was very much like the Islamic world.

-Michelle Cuatrona

THE WONDERS OF ISLAM

All Islamic people were in search for treasure because they could hardly afford a piece of bread.Also Islamic people were thieves because they were desperate for food.Because of that people had to get their monkeys,the monkeys distract the people and the person steals the food for themselves and their pet monkeys.And that there were alot of prince that want to marry with the princess just so they would be kings.The Islams would kill eachother over the princess, just like they wanted to kill Aladin.THANKS AND COMMENT!!!!!!!!!!!

STEREOTYPES of the Islams

Watching Aladdin I founds out the Islams had lamps. Islam people wore tiny hats and had monkeys. Many soldiers had mustaches and beards. The kings were called Sultons and bad people were sent to prison. A lot of the guards dressed the same and had swords. Many people were very poor and sold many things around the city.

Stereotypes of the Islamic world

After watching the movie "Aladdin", I noticed that some things were very stereotypical. This means that people believe in a generalization of the race though it is usually false. One stereotype of Islamic peo0ple that occurred during the movie was that everyone wore pointy shoes. This is a very big stereotype of Islamic people. Another stereotype was when Jafar had an incredible moustache! That was stereotypical of evil people. He also had a snake staff which can hypnotize people. This is another stereotype of evil people. Many Islamics wore either HUGE turbans or small hats and also had exotic animals as familiars. This is a HUGE stereotype of Islamic people. These are stereotypes that I have found during the movie "Aladdin".

StEreOTypEs IN ALADDIN

There are some obvious stereotypes and some not-so-obvious stereotypes in Aladdin. One of the rather obvious ones are that sultans and princes wore big, puffy hats with a feather in the middle. The less obvious ones inlude girls wear baggy pants and guards are really mean. I don't think there were many genies then and the whole genie in a lamp is myth from the Arabian Nights.

Stereotypes in Aladdin

In Aladdin, there are many stereotypes associated with the Middle East.

In the picture above, we can clearly see some of the stereotypes. Some of them include the flying carpet, and the big domed buildings.

Also, there are stereotypes such as the genies, the big puffy hats, and the rustic feel.

It's still a good movie though!!

Stereotypical Much?

There are quite a few stereotypes in the movie Aladdin. First, there is the prince stereo types. In Princess Jasmine's look of princes are stuck up and snobby and selfish. Next, the clothes. it's always in loose pants and short sleeved shirts. Lastly, their swords. They are gigantic and broad and slender. Well, there may be many stereotypes in Aladdin, but it still has some truths,. But I'M not going to blog about that in this blog...

I Can Show You the World.......

We watched Aladdin in history class to get a stereotypical view on the Islamic world. Some of the things I found was that...

- it was in a desert.

- the sultent wore poofy pants and turbans.

- the merchants bribed passerbys.

- the palace had round tops. There is a picture of it on the right.

I put more things I found before but I accidentally deleted the whole blog so this is a retyped version, so it doesn't have that much things on it.

--sunny:)

Stereotypes... :]

When I think of Islamic people....
"Stop! Theif! Stop!" yells a big, muscular bodyguard that has a huge turban on the top of his head, and in his hand, there is a huge sword, waiting to give the penalty for stealing. Now, this is where I say STOP! How many stereotypes of Islamic people have I already named? - Islamic people are also "known for": palaces with huge domes monkeys, tigers, and other exotic animals being pets outside markets deserts

THE END AND THANK YOU

Aladdin, a Movie of Islamic Stereotypes

After watching Aladdin, I have noticed several stereotypes that Disney portrays of the Islamic world. First of all, there is the stereotype that everyone there wears pointed shoes. Secondly, the story shows that all men of the Islamic world wear turbans. Finally, there is the belief that all men have either goatees or mustaches. Overall, these are just a few of the stereotypes that are portrayed in Aladdin.

The Stereotypes of Aladdin

As you all know, many of the Disney animated movies are for kids. However, there is a deep, dark, and very revealing stereotypical features put into the depths of this movie...

What they hide in the movie is what they want children growing up to think what one thing has the stereotypes of another. Now, I will unveil what has been what Disney does not want you to know about! Muhahahaha!

There are cultures embedded into the minds of young children to think wrongly of a kind of race, religion, or place. Anyhow, that's what Disney wants you to think of, unknowingly. Taking for instance, the movie, Aladdin, it takes in what is thought to be of Islamic people. For every person near that area, they show that every person holds swords, whether it is hidden beneath their garments, or in hand, as the "Islamic" guards always hold. Additionally, they think that all Islamic people wear some kind of hat all the time. Aladdin also includes that you can obtain 3 wishes if you obtain a magical lamp, and always believes that there are always genies in these magical lamps. Also, they imply that Islamic advisors are always greedy for something. In even more of a prospective, it also gives an opinion that Islamic people have very unusual pets.
Now that I have revealed the stereotypical insights of one of the Disney movies, Aladdin, I have made you very aware of the cultural opinions of Disney movies. Well, have fun!

Aladin! Stereotypes! READ THIS!

In Mr. G's class we watched Aladdin! We didn't just watch it for nothing. We watched it because we are going to be starting a chapter on Islam and that is where Aladdin took place. There are alot of stereotypes in this cartoon, but some really capture the Islam culture. For Example it seems like all the houses were made of gold or something. Actually, the houses were made of mud and stuff. Secondly, it is shown that all the people whom are high in power where this big hat. Lastly, I think it did a great job on captureing the Islam cultre, it shows that they have sultan(like a king) and that was good. These are all examples of stereotypes in the media.

READ THIS!!! ITS ABOUT STEREOTYPES!!!

On Thursday and Friday, my class watched Aladdin. There are many stereotypes in the movie like how you get three wishes from a genie if you rub its lamp which is really just a myth. And in the movie the king or emperor always has a beard, that is another stereotype. Lastly, their clothing is always baggy. Islamic people might have dressed up that way but not all of them do.

mn

PS. Has anyone ever watched a Disney movie where people or a person actually sings badly or doesn't sing at all? Think about it.

ALADDIN!!!!....stereotypes

History class was sooo fun. We watched Aladdin and it was cool. In this movie, there are many stereotypes. There are the houses, landscapes, and of course the clothes. In Aladdin, there were many houses and each had their own spark but intially they were all very similar. They had the balcony and most were like condos, having two stories and each one belonging to a different person. This was probably very similar to what Islamic people had back in the old days. The clothes were probably also very similar. There were the baggy pants and the vests. But the royals wore fancy clothing with the same baggy pants, but with full, decorative shirts and the turban on the head. Even though Aladdin was just a really cool Disney movie, it taught how to analyze some of the stereotypes in the Islamic world.

Aladdin and the Islamic world!! lol

In the movie Aladdin, the houses, the market places, and the palace look like what they had in the old time. The palace was really big, with the huge big gold ball on top of the palace. The market streets were filled with people buying stuff from the merchants there. How the poor people would steal from the merchants with their trust worthy monkey. They even showeed what kind of vehicals they rode, the camals. The people in the street wore, what people in the Islamic world wore. It even shows how the kings ruled and the laws that they had. Like Jasmine had to marry a prince before her birthday. Some people in the Islamic world shouldn't be trusted, like that evil ugly person( I forgot his name). In the beggining of the story thought that Aladdin was a street rat, who stole everything.
