What happens

Aladdin is a 1992 animated fantasy film. It is based on the classic Arabian Nights story Aladdin, translated by Antoine Galland. Aladdin was produced by American Film Investment Corporation (later Golden Films). Like all six productions that followed, the film features a single original song, "Rub the Lamp", written and composed by Richard Hurwitz and John Arrias, while a selection of classical music completed the rest of its soundtrack. It was released straight to video on April 27, 1992 by Trimark, as the first of a series of seven weekly releases of animated adaptations. It was then acquired and re-released by GoodTimes Entertainment in 1993 and later reissued on DVD in 2002 as part of the distributor's (now Goodtimes Entertainment) "Collectible Classics" line of products.
