“The Thief of Bagdad” from 1924 would make a fun side-scroller. Jumping chasms, avoiding traps, swordfights. . . .aaaaaaand I just realized I’m describing “Prince of Persia” from 1989. Curse you Jordan Mechner!

When I clicked through to the article I thought for a moment I was looking at the source image Aimee Mann used for her album The Forgotten Arm:
My mistake, I wasn’t. But still, artistic cross-pollination/overlap/inspiration, etc. 
Also, Aimee Mann is awesome. I listened to her incredible version of Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas quite a bit over the past couple weeks.
