I did mean the older one. I didn't even know about the '78 movie, which only has a 5.0 rating on imdb.comsniffles said:

There is a movie called Sinbad and the Seven Seas that stars Lou Ferrigno as Sinbad. I've never seen it, but the idea of Ferrigno as the prince of Baghdad strikes me as unbelievably funny.
On a more "serious" note, there are several movie version of Arabian Nights, of varying degrees of quality.

My list:
Arabian Adventure. Much maligned, but terrific fun. Loads of cliches, but deft with them.
El Hazard anime series. Vaguely Arabian.
Thirteenth Warrior. Better than most critics make it out to be.
Hearts and Armour. European film which makes Hollywood films look historically accurate (Moors and Samurai!!!). Good fight scenes and decent (if melodramatic) plot. Set in Moorish Spain, so maybe not quite what you want.
Raiders of the Lost Ark. Surprised no-one's mentioned this.
Nothing to do with Arabia. Still a good film, just set 2,000 years before and in a complete different ocean from Sinbad the Sailor. Features some other bloke who just happens to be called Sinbad.
Good call! Forgotten about that.
Seconded! Harryhausen for preference, but even that Lou Ferrigno one's pretty good. Watch out for the fight with the invisible monster!
