I was so fucking sure they'd also completely miscast Jasmine's father.. well, guess who went from short, overweight and overall adorable to normal height, slim and unsympathetic-looking ?
The casting directors at Disney are either blind or they didn't watch the motion picture. How can you fail so damn hard ? Aladdin's role is the only one that's not completely horribly miscast.

The Netflix movie was a passion project for circus.
Took him forever and no one wanted it.
It ain't good. It ain't better than the farvabean one.
Farvabean hits the right emo notes as he does with all his family movies. Circus does not.

Just cause it ain't mainstream, maaaaan, doesn't mean it's better.

Hah, that's REALLY bad. Disney should go back to animated movies (and I don't mean live action with a CGI character or two added).

59%, 5.88/10

Far cry from the 95% the 2016 live action adaptation of The Jungle Book achieved, and not much better that this year's Dumbo (47%).


TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."

They missed the opportunity of spicing things up by adding another genie though, it would have led to exciting hi-octane moments and intense additional levels of drama that the original cartoon couldn't provide!

Being fair. Despite the film being mediocre there are actually things that made more sense from the original:

 Spoiler:
 


It feels to me they removed "darker" elements that were in the original films..

 Spoiler:

I was 20 in 1992 and I've never watched Aladdin except having it in the background while visiting one of my sisters and her kids watched it for the umpteenth time.

Strong opening at the box office, cleared over $200M already: https://www.forbes.com/sites/scottmendelson/2019/05/26/disneys-aladdin-tops-box-office-with-huge-114-million-weekend/

I knew it, "Aladdin" IS a brand name. Same with "Lion King".

It's true with Aladdin 2019 as well, the original already had feminist message, but they decided to add that:

 Spoiler:
 


Not only it didn't happened in the original film.

I's annoying cuz it's was done only for the sake of delivering message with no actual plot reason or logic.
