Hope you like Will Smith just standing there while singing instead of doing magic stuff, and ostriches

To be fair to the movie blatantly doing magic in front of regular ass people is something that would only not look ridiculous in a cartoon meant to entertain a younger audience (that older audiences can also enjoy).

Also probably blew most of their CGI budget on Friend Like Me. See: Be Our Guest in 2017's Beauty and the Beast.

I dunno I just dont see the point in any of these live action movies

Theyre not hurting anyone by existing but I dont think theres any situation where Id watch one of these over the originals

Like Aladdin looks fine and Disney has too much $$$ to actually release a bad picture but yeah idgaf, it astounds me people are getting legit mad though, just dont fucking see it

Oh, yeah. I get that. I have no interest, either.

I just don't get the point of the internet being full of people being like "Why, this isn't the cartoon at all! This is a personal insult!" and then they keep watching clips and acting just as surprised and slighted every time.

According to Wikipedia Alan Tudyk is voicing Iago.

I'm guessing it's this character:

Nasim Pedrad as Dalia:
Jasmine's loyal handmaiden and confidante. A new character that did not appear in the original film. Pedrad said that Dalia "[has] been by Jasmines side for years and really looks out for her".[3]

Is "Arabian Nights" in the remake? The peddler in the opening was the genie.

The auto tuning is worse than Emma Watson in BatB. And to be honest I have thought from the very beginning that Will Smith was probably the best reasonable choice as the Genie. Just let him give a natural mediocre singing performance and let his personality and energy compensate. Worked fine for The Rock in Moana.

It feels slower than the original.

I set playback to 1.25x speed based on the suggestion of several comments and I like it much better.

So this was the issue I had. It feels kind of sluggish compared to how high energy the original was. At the suggestion of the commenters I played it at 1.25x speed and I think it sounds way better this way too.

Live action Jungle Book was an original take on the story. It was fine and good.

Beauty and the Beast was a scene for scene remake with new uninspiring songs added. It was not good.

Also worked well for Robin Williams in Aladdin

Let's not pretend that he was a great singer.

It also doesn't sound good that slow lol. One of the comments says to speed it up to 1.25x and it actually sounds better

edit: oh y'all already got that covered here too. Yeah.

The issue more in general is not that there's anything really WRONG with this clip besides some nitpicky stuff like the speed, and that Will Smith isn't a great singer (neither was Robin Williams, but he clearly had more fun with it), but more that this doesn't need to exist. It's clearly an inferior version to the animated one in part since you don't have the creative liberties that animation would give you. It seems like its gonna be pretty much the same story, so it's not like someone has a new story to tell here, or even a twist on the original (which I guess is possible still but pretty unlikely), so this seems to only exist to say "hey look we have the ability to make this animated movie into a live action movie". But why does it need to be made live action?

(I know what the answer is you don't have to answer that lol)

I think visually it's very different and new. It's not like Lion King or something where it's all mediocre CG. This looks like an actual live play version of the cartoon. No one complains about all the broadway versions of Disney.

Will Smith is going to be the downfall of this movie
Who the fuck thought it was a good idea
Having a top-tier actor in your movie is not automatically a win. The role doesn't suit him. The CGI doesn't suit him
It's such an idiotic choice and it rivals Sonic design from the Sonic Movie in stupidity

Yeah Robin Williams as Genie for this song is... Robin Williams. Impressions, chaotic energy, silly quotable jokes.

By that token, Will Smith is just also Will Smith, so you get to hear him say "uh huh" and "uhh"

if you look at is as like a college humor joke lampooning the state of disney remakes it's actually legit hilarious.

Broadway Genie is the only good part of that Aladdin. It is honestly pretty dull otherwise.

The shortened but no longer with us Disneyland variant was honestly the superior stage show.

I have no problem with this. Is it as crazy as the original animated version? Of course not, but its what I wouldve expected from a live action version. I mean yeah none of the Disney live action movies really need to exist, but I want to see this anyways. At least this one basically has all the best songs from the movie in it unlike The Lion King!
