I'm honestly surprised that there isn't more outrage from the right complaining that this movie promotes Islam and Sharia law.
I said it was decent (I very much enjoyed it) lol. But I'm also basing this on critical census. There are many films/games that I liked that I know were viewed as dismal. Anthem is a good example of that. There's probably someone who thinks King Arthur was a great film too. So I'm referring to the general critical census.
I actually am glad that this movies are nothing more than cash grabs, and that they end up being very far away in quality from the orignals. The animated movies will be forever the "real" Disney's Aladdin and BatB, Jungle Book, etc. I think even Disney is quite aware of this. If they wanted anything else they wouldn't be copying their own stories bit by bit, they would try to do different things with them. They just want to appeal to nostalgia and to provide a fun moviegoing experience, they aren't trying to create everlasting classics, because they have them already.
That looked better. Like, I'm not gritting my teeth or anything. I agree with the takes that Aladdin lacks charisma which is why the Prince Ali bit worked in the first place. But I digress. Not looking like a total dumpster fire anymore.
UGH MY CHILDHOOD
They made Alladin a muslin
Genie is now a middle aged comedy actor
They cast the princess as a WOMAN just to appeal to sjw
And to top it all there's SONGS IN IT NOW!!!? What is this? LA LA LAND!!?
Oh and the emphasis on platform style parkour is pure assassin's creed money chasing
That's because it's actually a Bollywood movie. Guy Ritchie apparently doesn't understand the difference between Arabic and Indian culture.
I would say the Jungle Book was fairly different, far more dramatic and less musical. It was probably the most successful remake compared with the likes of Beauty and the Beast that reference the animation almost shot by shot. I'm not sure Favreau make the same kind of changes to The Lion King without a massive fan backlash though, although the Broadway/West End version is already different and absolutely brilliant.
Looks better, but it's still not as creative or visually interesting as the original... That might be a problem...
I love how the trailer has a few words in Arabic thrown in at the start because Ritchie thinks we're all going to be like:
I still think this movie is unnecessary, but it's cool to see so much brown skin on the big screen at once in a major US motion picture.
Looks much better. I never hated Will Smith as the genie as much as the rest of the internet but now I'm sold on it.
There should have been brown people behind the camera and in the creative process as well. It's not like they brought on board a Hollywood heavy weight either, so Disney can't even argue they were aiming for bonafide and established talent.
Aladdin I'm meh on, I think he'll be fine.
Jasmine looks great, Abu looks great.
Genie looks a lot better here.
I look forward to seeing Michael Cera's take on Jafar.
Seems like they kinda blew their load with the music in this trailer. I wish they would have saved Whole New World.
Much better though.

Looks amazing, especially post a whole new world bit.
Very colourful.
A complete turnaround from the other awful teasers.
The casting barring Will Smith is still terrible.

Aladdin is my fav disney film so I will see it regardless
Not sure what to think of Genie though, but at least Will Smith seems to be enjoying himself
Jafar looks like bad to me though, he's not creepy at all. He also always striked me as like a dude in his 40's at least in the animation

Too much CGI, it doesn't feel organic enough for me. Pass. I hate too much CGI.
Aladdin's actor look the part though.

I am so fucking sick of blue/red-orange divided posters. It's the visual equivalent of the Inception noise.
Will Smith seems to be on point as the genie, the rest though? I'm not feeling it, especially the actors for Aladdin and Jafar.
In it for Jafar, gotta support my fellow Dutchies. But it looks way too much like a beat-for-beat remake. Oh well.
Waaaaaaay better than the last two teasers.
I'm still very whelmed by this, and I can tell that Aladdin's actor will probably be the weakest part of the movie.

Uhhhh...
I wholeheartedly agree. It's SUCH a shame.Whoever keeps color grading these movies just absolutely sucks.
Beauty and the Beast was exactly the same and The Lion King looks no different. Nothing but dull, drab, lifeless shit.
Color is in fact, not for babbies. Live action movies can actually have deep, bold and striking colors.
Jafar is hilariously miscast. Actor is too young and his voice isn't intimidating at all. I don't know how I feel about Genie yet. I absolutely love Will Smith to death, but I can't help but feel underwhelmed with the little I've seen so far compared to Robin Williams. I'm willing to give it a chance, though. Aladdin and Lion King were the two biggest movies I group up with as a kid. Saw both of them in theaters as a small child and I will always love those films.
