Happy birthday, live-action Aladdin movie!
This time last year the live-action version of Aladdin came out and my hopes weren’t very high. I was tired of the Disney live-action remakes and in a way I still am… except I REALLY LOVED Aladdin. In fact, oh god, I actually liked it more than the original. I’m sorry!
Hopefully I’ll catch ya in the cinema in a few years’ time for the sequel.

I just watched this on Disney Plus and I have to agree (although I did miss Robin Williams). I thought the casting was perfect and Will Smith did a great job as Genie.

Yeah same! I LOVED Naomi Scott as Jasmine. I did miss Williams too though. In a kinder world, maybe he would have a cameo in this one. :(

I’ve got mixed feelings on this film. It has its high points, but I think I’ll always prefer the original.

That’s fair too! The original was an incredible achivement in animation.
