Okay, time for an idea I've been toying around with for a while now: Aladdin, year 2120! (You're welcome, fan theorists.) Everyone knows the classic Disney tale of a street rat, a princess, and a blue impersonator with cramped living conditions. It's one of the best things made in the '90s besides "Taco Grande" by Weird Al and, according to my sister, Josh Hutcherson. It's hard for people to imagine Aladdin any other way. So I did it for you. Enter hoverboard carpets and genetically engineered monkeys! After infiltrating a top-secret facility known as the Cave, homeless young Aladdin acquires GENIE, an artificial intelligence system imbedded in an itty-bitty lamp. With the program able to instantly materialize anything, Al makes himself a loaded politician in order to nab the attention of Jasmine, sheltered daughter of the techy Agrabah district's governor. Aladdin has all the power in the world - but if sinister Jafar and his genetically altered parrot have anything to say about it, said power won't be his for long. *dramatic score*
