They've been doing parades and stage shows based on it at the Disney parks pretty much non-stop practically since it came out, so you know it was only a matter of time before the musical was going to come along. I just doubt that it would have been an issue, as any publicity tends to be good publicity. There are also rumors that Aladdin will be coming out of the Disney Vault this year or next. Just because Aladdin has been a stage show in the theme parks, is completely irrelevent. Disney did not have any plans to ever bring Aladdin to Broadway, until six months ago. They did not want to adapt the film for Broadway, after The Little Mermaid flopped. If you know anything about the changes for the stage show, you would understand why Disney would prohibit OUaT from adapting the story of Aladdin. Publicity means nothing to Disney, as they do not need it.
