Addition of poster

edit

I found this source which has two posters for this film, I've seen the second poster being reposted on twitter but it always had the Weibo watermark, however, none of these posters say something of a release date and only have taglines (per google translate), so it is safe to add them as teaser posters? -Gouleg (TalkContribs) 21:19, 31 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

An Aladdin adaptation

edit

Looking at all the available trailers and synopses for this movie, it is obvious that Wish Dragon is essentially an adaptation of the Aladdin tale set in the modern world. The protagonist Din is clearly based on Aladdin, and the Wish Dragon is basically a genie who grants three wishes tops. Thus, I am of the opinion that it should be added in the Works based on Aladdin category. - Malurian123 (talk) 05:05, 29 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Disagree, unless confirmed by any of the producers as so, "protagonist finds magical being that grants them wishes" is a common trope in stories and it's not often tied to the original story of Aladdin -Gouleg🛋️ (StalkHound) 15:36, 29 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
Disagree, while the wishes part and the teapot bear similarities to Aladdin, the story is otherwise 100% different from Aladdin, right down to the setting and dragon backstory.2601:2C7:780:3AC0:F9A2:3B48:EA4C:D194 (talk) 14:10, 21 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
I noted the similarities, as well. To the Disney adaptation, if not the original story. There are no reviewers who remarked on the similarities? 惑乱 Wakuran (talk) 12:53, 26 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
