History Fridge / AladdinAndTheKingOfThieves

** Which makes his death that more ironic2

* The Forty Thieves attack and rob Aladdin and Jasmine's guests but are never shown maiming or killing anyone despite their ruthless reputation. This could be excused typical censorship for a Disney animated movie but there is an obvious in-universe explanation. The lyrics of "Are You In Or Out" state that under Cassim's leadership the Forty Thieves became a lot less vicious ("We'd plunder and pillage and ransack a village with neither a worry nor care" "We knew that we had to be blisfully bad. The Cassim brought this sensitive stuff"). The reason there were no casualties at the wedding was because Cassim was enforcing a no killing policy.

* 37 Thieves: It is unknown what happened to them after being arrested, but it is most likely that they were executed for their crimes.

* Sa'Luk's [[AmazingTechnicolorPopulation grey skin]] would, in real life, be a sign of silver poisoning. We know he's an ImplacableMan, so maybe he ''is'' actually poisoned and just keeps going because of being a badass.

* How fitting that Cassim's journey parallels Midas' journey. Both men are consumed by {{Greed}} and ultimately harmed their children; Aladdin and Marigold.

* When Cassim discards the Hand of Midas by throwing it into the ocean, it accidentally hits the ship that was used by the remaining seven thieves who evaded capture by the Agrabah palace guards and were tricked by Saluk that Cassim sold the thieves out. The ship turns gold and sinks, and because the Vanishing Isle had submerged and would not rise until long after and there's no other land nearby, they must have drowned. And worse Cassim did ''NOT'' seek any vengeance on the Thieves for their betrayal.

** Plus, the turtle is a giant and can resurface despite having a large temple on its shell. So a few more density and weight won't make a difference.

* Aladdin's father is the ''king'' of thieves, so that technically makes Aladdin a prince. His wish from the first movie was literally granted.

It is unknown what happened to them after being arrested. But it could implied they presumably executed to go to the wedding & presumably redeeming themselves. & Maybe Join cassim.

** Not so much on two accounts: One, the hand only turned the inside of the temple gold, not the outside as suggested above. Two, the turtle ''did'' resurface if only to let Genie out as Disney/SteamboatWillie.

* Aladdin and Jasmnine's wedding being very western doesn't make sense until you realize [[TheGenieKnowsJackNicholson Genie]] planned and arranged the whole thing.

* Cassim turning the Vanishing Isle temple into gold probably also drastically increased its density and weight. That turtle may never surface again.
