I once went a-browsing through the Internet and stumbled upon a site that advertised an Aladdin convention called "Arabian Nights." The link didn't work, though, so I ask of you - Was this fact or wishful thinking? I've been to a few anime conventions in my day, but the idea of an Aladdicon is pretty much the greatest thing ever. Truth or trick?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that the one that fans tried to set up awhile back, that never happened?

I'm all for setting up something, and I'd be happy to work on getting it going... I'd just have no idea what I was doing! Laughing

It's also a matter of making sure there's enough interest for it.

But if we wanted to be a GOOD convention, we'd have to have a dealer's room to sell Aladdin stuff. And more importantly, we'd have to invinte some of the animators or actors.

Gilbert should be the first one we invite, and we should make a big deal out of giving him some coffee.

Ofcourse it has to be good with playing, , stuff being sold, and the actors, and artist there too. *sigh* that would be convention! Very Happy

Well, I think Disney would eat us alive if we tried to have a "real" Aladdin convention, but it would be fun if people in similar areas of the world could get together once a year and swap Aladdin merchandise, watch the movies and series, show off their costumes (if they made any), and that sort of thing. Of course, for anybody who's still in high school, travel would be a problem. I personally can't imagine my family letting me go off to a weekend convention themed around Aladdin; the phrases, "What the heck?" and "What's wrong with you?" come to mind. Rolling Eyes

But, it's still a fun thought - and wouldn't be completely impossible to pull off. Guess I'll just have to dream, though...

Heck yes I am. Sixteen, a junior, and torturously close to getting my driver's license. Not that I'll have a car once I do get my license...but if I did, rest assured I'd save gas money for months to hit any kind of Aladdin get-together. Very Happy

Luckyyyyy! Wink

I was actually supposed to get this old car that my grandma bought from our ex-neighbors, but she ended up liking it so much that she kept it for herself. So now my grandma has two cars and I have none...does that seem weird to anybody else?

Oh, and Class of '06 owns you all. Razz
