A bit, yeah. People noted that Aladdin was pretty much drawn Caucasian compared to the more... erm... "ethnic" Jaffar. The big controversy with that movie, however, was a line from the opening song - "Where they cut off your ear if they don't like your face", which was subsequently changed in all home releases of the film to "Where it's flat and immense and the heat is intense".

The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee filed a complaint over the movie as a result and the controversy was noted in a few publications.
