Overview
In this animated retelling of the classic tale, Abdul Aziz Magoo—an ancestor of Mr. Magoo—is the lamp-selling uncle of Aladdin. Tired of his nephew’s laziness, Abdul insists that Aladdin find a wife. To his uncle’s surprise, Aladdin falls in love with the beautiful Princess Yasminda. Before he can make his move, however, Aladdin is whisked away by the evil Wazir on a quest to find a magic lamp that will grant its owner unlimited power in the form of three magic wishes.
