Aladdin 2019

Jamine looks like one of those cheap Indian soap opera stars. Is this what they've came up as best?

What the hell are you talking about? Jafar’s wish is to become a sorcerer

>So the Iago thing is the only spell he does?
Well, he does summon a storm to capture Aladdin trying flee with the lamp but yeah, not very impressive beyond those two things.
The only things he does beyond that is some telekinisis, immobilising and teleportation.

>Iago seems like he can only mimic like a real parrot, as they seem slightly off from a natural response.
What a waste of Alan Tudyk.

>let's make a live action Aladdin remake with Will Smith as the genie

And I thought "let's make a sequel to the Mask without Jim Carrey" was the worst idea ever.

Funny you should say that, because Jim Carrey would have been a better casting as Genie. Also the new rule about making wishes seems random

I should have phrased that better. Original Jafar was invested in mysticism and was a practicing magician from the start, so he knew how to utilize his power up later. This Jafar is a gutter lad that gets magic'ed into a sorcerer, makes sense that his creativity begins and ends with "see this parrot, I'm going to take this parrot and make it HUGE".

>Jim Carrey would have been a better casting as Genie

Oh God, that would have been amazing. But we'll never get it because of that fucking Sonic movie. That movie is a mountain of terrible decisions.

You’re trying to apply logic to his magic when the simple answer is that the new team was just being lazy. Also possibility is that they didn’t want to frighten children with the snake form but whatever.

>No Aladdin surfing with a big gem onto snake Jafar and stabbing him with a sword
God damn it

>Also the new rule about making wishes seems random

Probably a callback to Aladdin tricking the genie into not wishing him out of the Cave of Wonders only to use his second wish to avoid drowning.

how is Jafar as a whole?

Why can't Disney just make sociopaths nowadays? Why every single villain must be a retard with a shitty excuse no one would accept irl?

So many unnecessary details added. It’s like Beauty and the Beast all over again.

You know dark days are ahead of us when not even male villains are allowed to just be evil anymore.

>Makes Jasmine Sultan

Sultana

And having a white man in the movie?
Are you mental?

How is that a callback? Why not just do it like last time?

>Blue and orange
kek, every time.

>No giant snake
Of all the fucking things, this is the one that makes me legitimately mad. Fuck you Disney.

>"possibility is that they didn’t want to frighten children with the snake form"

Yeah can't have giant snakes in a live action kid's film.

Is there a Fresh Prince joke, and does he refer to himself at any point as "Big Genie"

> Aladdin has Abu rub the lamp while he makes the wish. The genie still granted a wish when getting them out of the cave, it's just that he granted it for Abu.

How does the scene where Aladdin selfishly decides against keeping his promise to Genie even go down here? He'd still have two more wishes by proxy, even more if he asks the Carpet or someone else.

that would imply she's an actual human with emotions

that was before PC culture

No thanks, I've got a whole trail mix.

>How does the scene where Aladdin selfishly decides against keeping his promise to Genie even go down here?
The Genie is actually kind of cool about it in this version, he actually expected Aladdin to go back on his promise. He's just disappointed that he chose to continue lying about being a prince.

how is Smith as the Genie?

It really feels like in an attempt to flesh out concepts from the original movie and make them more "realistic", they just ended up making everyone more cartoonish and the situations more contrived in the process.

Good lord, this all sounds so overcomplicated. A lot of Disney films ride on their simplicity and how they make best use of their concepts, Aladdin included. Why did you need to add all this unnecessary bullshit? Who's the fucking audience for this? What a disaster. Now I've got even more reason to just watch the original again instead, fine by me.

Now 61 percent on Rotten. Gonna be 75 by Friday Disney bros.

It would be a giant octopus witch, a giant CG macination that would probably have enough on-screen time as the original.

He comes across as a bipolar dickhead.

There is actually a white character in the movie BTW

Reviews for blockbusters never get better with time, the ones that either are excited for it or are in the studio's payroll usually go to early screenings because of "special privileges"

My boner needs to know, does Jasmine ever get put into this outfit in the movie? Chained or what have you?

Given how FUCK THE PATRIARCHY the plot you've described is I doubt it but I thought I'd check.

And for anyone wondering about the wish rules, the killing exemption has been removed, meaning that "I wish X would die right now" is a perfectly valid wish in this version.

1. No, she does not get into slave gear, given that they are making this movie these days (and the changes to her character arc) it's unlikely it was even considered. Speaking of which, there's a lot of things toned down here. Remember the merchant who tried to cut off Jasmine's hand? Now he just demands she gives him her jewelry as compensation. Nor does Jafar attemtp to stab Aladdin, he just kicks him down into the cave. Also his false claim that Aladdin was beheaded is not in this movie either.

2. Basically, Jasmine is told she should "be seen and not heard" several times by Jafar (because he thinks it's a woman's place. And the Sultan is explicitly against her being his successor because "it's never been done" in their 1000 year old history.

>No, she does not get into slave gear
Well, that's a disappointment, though I suppose it shouldn't come as a surprise. Fuck, though.

Another question: does Jafar do a lot once he becomes a sorcerer? Sending Aladdin off to the frozen wastes, turn Raja into a kitten, trap Aladdin in an hour glass, turn Abu into a toy, etc? Or is literally the only thing he does as a sorcerer is make his parrot grow?

>The way Jafar is tricked is slightly different. Throughout the movie he's being triggered by people pointing out he's only second at something. Aladdin tells him this in regards to the genie and he gets super triggered. Then he doesn't actually wish to be a genie, rather the most powerful being in existance, then the genie exploits the vagueness of that wish and turns him into a genie.

Okay. I knew this movie was gonna be hot tax writeoff garbage, but I liked this interpretation of the scene a lot, since the Genie emphasizes being specific about wishes even in the trailers.

but it robs the cleverness of Aladdin's trick and gives it to the Genie, if this is correct

why would you want the villain to become the toughest shit of the world? at least in the cartoon Aladdin new about the genies' restrictions,hence explictly speaking about being second to him so to make him wish that. Here at best he is hoping Jaffar makes the conection.

this sounds like its full of PC horseshit

Well, most of these movies are 1:1 remakes with a few extra boring songs and with female characters that are stronger and more independent.

jesus christ, this sounds like a tumblr wetdream.

He also summons a thunderstorm.

Reminder the Genie has a love interest in this movie too

>Sending Aladdin off to the frozen wastes, turn Raja into a kitten, trap Aladdin in an hour glass, turn Abu into a toy, etc? Or is literally the only thing he does as a sorcerer is make his parrot grow?
Yes, no, no, Genie does something like that but not Jafar, he summons a storm but that's about it for impressive stuff.

Of fucking course, hacks are so predictable.

I can’t wait for the Hunchback of Norte Dame changes.

Yeah, it's really random and unneeded

Well, the Disney movie already fucked with the story a lot to begin with, so that would be interesting

>Jafar does not transform into a snake
into the trash it goes

That gay-ass little lisp he's got is showing exactly how snakelike he can be.

Like pottery, it literally rhymes.

are there any grrrrrl power moments

>the killing exemption has been removed
For what purpose?

That is so stupid. Why? Why would you take that out?!!

Why? Who the fuck asked for this?

Literally none, the Genie does mention that he can't raise the dead or make people fall in love but the killing thing is never brought up.

I would be okay if Disney at least goes with the originally planned ending with Prince Eric goes chucking the trident at Ursula. Knowing my luck they won’t though.

That is just insane.

Well, it’s not that bad- I like the idea of a giant parrot wreaking havoc.
I still won’t see it in theaters tho.

So was this an attempt to make this remake more """""serious""""" or is Disney saying murder is ok

Alright Yea Forums, how its the "Friend Like Me" scene? Its Son of The Mask tier or its decent tier?

The war story line hurts

Does Genie make Aladdin a sandwich?

I'd hope but I wouldn't be surprised if Disney started removing some of them.

>Here you have to rub the lamp while making the wish, so Aladdin has Abu rub the lamp while he makes the wish. The genie still granted a wish when getting them out of the cave, it's just that he granted it for Abu

So Aladdin stole Abu's wish? So he effectively has infinite wish if he just cut other people's tongue off and make them rub the lamb for him?

that snarking bitch hanging with Jasmine?

What was the purpose of Jasmine's human friend? Was she just a replacement for Jasmine to talk to instead of Raja because tiger CGI is expensive? Or was she Will Smith's love interest?

No, Jasmine's handmaiden

Yeah

Aladdin, the movie anyway, is pre-Islam middle east

See

Probably Will Smith
Doesn't he have a footnote in his hiring process that he basically always gets a love interest or something

They fell for the villain tier meme

He didn't have one in Suicide Squad

I kind of wish they had taken a stab at including the ring genie as well
Most adaptions of Aladdin just ignore it

didn't deadshot bang harley in that film?

do they cut out any of the darker bits?

Yea that's because he was messing around with Margot Robbie

No? She was all over the Joker

Well, that's another thing entirely

Someone elaborate on Jafar. What's he like as a character?

>Jim Carrey would have been a better casting as Genie.
But user, that would have been an actually fun and fitting casting decision, we can't have that.

Really lame and non-threatening, you can basically get the full picture from the trailers, there's nothing else to him.

If the Genie is completely cool with it then that completely defeats the point of Aladdin and the Genie developing a bond over the course of the movie and Aladdin ultimately doing the selfless thing and choosing to value the Genie's friendship and freedom over his power.

It's basically saying the Genie is completely fucking fine with being a slave.

does he have any of the humor of the original one

At this point, I doubt she'll even be fat...

Oh for fuck's sake.

All the best zingers are in the trailers and the promo clips. If none of those got you chuckling, nothing else in this will.

>Jafar had been a thief and wants revenge on a country that threw him into prison.
>The Sultan is keen on marrying off Jasmine is because Jafar tricks him to invade that country,it’s for a military alliance. Jafar might have killed the Sultan's wife as part of this manipulation.
>Jafar does not transform into a snake but he does turn Iago giant.
>The way Jafar is tricked is slightly different. Throughout the movie he's being triggered by people pointing out he's only second at something.

These I actually like.

the greatest trick the devil ever pulled...

but then again, psychopaths and sociopaths the world over tend to construct such narratives of victimhood, of course neglecting to mention that they either caused their own problems or that they are far worse than the ones who supposedly wronged them.

Shit opinion/10

That's a fucking terrible opinion, user, holy shit.
What was wrong with Jafar just being a vizier who slightly mind-controlled the sultan to live easily and without having to do any work? That's a noble and lofty ideal.
It's only the lamp's power that pushes him over the edge.

the ring genie was kinda pointless if you think about it.

"if you don't talk about murder, then it doesn't exist."

it's the same mindset behind expelling children for drawing pictures of guns.

>Jasmine no longer wants to not be married because she wants to be independent and marry for love.

>Now she wants to be Sultana

Great now her motives are no better than Jafar.

>Sultan explicitly mentions Allah in original
>New one even has the lyrics to Prince Ali changed to be more accurate when referring to Islamic practices.

user I don't personally give a shit, but c'mon man.

>It's basically saying the Genie is completely fucking fine with being a slave.
We need to exploit this on Twitter or something, just to see Disney try and spin it positively.

>slavery in the ottoman empire

>However, it differs from the western idea of slavery. Meaning that domestic slaves was considered members of the family.

>A large percentage of officials in the Ottoman government were bought slaves[8] raised free, and integral to the success of the Ottoman Empire from the 14th century into the 19th. Many officials themselves owned a large number of slaves, although the Sultan himself owned by far the most.[5] By raising and specially training slaves as officials in palace schools such as Enderun, where they were taught to serve the Sultan and other educational subjects. The Ottomans created administrators with intricate knowledge of government and fanatic loyalty.The male establishment of this society created links of recorded information, even though speculation is present for European writings. However, women played and held the most important roles within the Harem institution.[9]

>...the wives of the Sultan, referred to as Haseki Sultans, or the mothers of the Sultan, known as Valide Sultans. Many of these women were of slave origins, as was expected of the sultanate, since traditional marriage roles were considered too large of a risk for the Sultan, who was expected to have no personal allegiances outside his title.[1] During this time, Haseki and Valide Sultans held political and social power, which allowed them to influence the daily running of the empire, as well as requesting the construction of buildings, and philanthropic works.[1]

Honestly this is an issue in the original too, just for different reasons. The Sultan is worried about finding a suitor because the law says she has to be married by a certain age, but at the end just abolishes the law.

So they turned it into Muslim propaganda?

I mean, shit; Ibrahim was a Christian-born slave and ended up being the Grand Vizier of the Ottoman Empire, appointed by Sultan Suleiman.

>Jafar does not transform into a snake but he does turn Iago giant.
LOL, What? That's like Malefifent's climax, except worse.

Liberation in women's empowerment stories is old hat now. The hot new trend is women wanting to be queens and rulers. It's almost as disconcerting as it sounds.

>New one even has the lyrics to Prince Ali changed to be more accurate when referring to Islamic practices.
How so?

Aladdin is not an original part of the Arabian Nights collection it is purported to originate from and the oldest iterations of the story say it's set in a "Chinese city". It's not pre-Islamic but it isn't really authentically Islamic either. Story was probably written by a Christian, possibly from Syria, and included in a translation of Arabian Nights in the 1800s. Earlier copies sources from the Arab Peninsula have been deemed forgeries.

A Muslim relying on magic and consorting with djinn would be haram as fuck, for the record.

Actually, in the original animated film, Genie directly states that he can raise the dead, he just doesn't like doing it (while morphing to resemble a zombie). I always took it as partially him being squeamish, and partially him lacking the ability to return souls to bodies, so in essence he says he can't bring the dead back because while TECHNICALLY he can, it won't be what they want and Genie seems to be rather chill about rules-lawyering.

Diff user but it changed Sunday Salaams to Friday Salaams.

That's pretty cool. Shame they couldn't make the musical sequence more high-energy. It seems pretty bland in comparison to the animated version.

I know that I'm just referring to the original animated film, not the story it's based on, in which Jasmine's dad outright says "Praise Allah!" over her finding a prince she liked.

The stories were chinese but the movie? Suuuuper Islamic. Nothing wrong with that, but it's weird to deny it.

No idea if the stories were Chinese, that's just where the original story says it was set, a Chinese city. Could be a catch all term for Asian city, could literally be a Chinese city since Muslims have been there at least Ghengis Khan was running around.

Yeah, that and the fact that Will doesn't really let his voice hit and draw out those low notes are the big issues.

Like, if it was one or the other I could live with it, high energy to try and help distract from Will, sort of in a "We're deliberately trying to avoid competing with the Robin Williams version" way, or with Will really letting loose with his voice and making it seem more like a one man show, sort of spontaneous to help counter the lack of instrumental work, I could dig it. But both? nadda.

So wait does Aladdin even free the Genie? From what I can remember of the original film, Aladdin promises to use his last wish to free him.

He uses the first wish to pretend to be a prince, has his second used to safe his life at the low point of the film, while ALSO Jafar uses his first wish to become the greatest sorcerer, possibly his second to become sultan, and his final wish to become as powerful as a genie-which directly traps him. Then in the conclusion seeing as Aladdin has everything he wanted with Jasmine, he frees Genie.

Am I retarded?

No but Disney is.

If I recall correctly, the original story was created somewhere in the Middle East, and was set in China specifically because it was 'a far off place', not because of anything relating to China itself.

Disney did make the right choice about setting the animated film in the ME, since all the themes and such all fit that area.

No, you're right except you got Jafar's first and second wishes switched around. I think people are confused because the lack of any description of Aladdin's actual counted wishes in this synopsis.

I wouldn't call the original authentically Islamic either. The inclusion of a single utterance of Allah--a word all Arabic speakers use in reference to God, Islamic or not, doesn't make it an Islamic story. Same way all the angels and crosses in Evangelion don't make it a Christian anime.

Ah good I was close.

Man, Aladdin is really quite a simple and iconic movie. How'd they manage to fuck it up so much?

If it originated anywhere in the middle east it probably came from Syria, but no authentic Arabian sources have been found. It's possible it was written a Frenchman who wanted to make his translation of Arabian Nights a little saucier than competing versions. No one really knows.

No it fucking wasn't. PC has been around since the 90s.

I don't know why they added the invading another country plotline, but they tried something similar in Cinderella, where they added this unnecessary court intrigue subplot with the Grand Duke to what's supposed to be a simple fairy tale romance.

Chinese because it's "really far away" and essentially an old Arabian's understanding of what Chinese is.

I mean, anything added to a remake like this should either be short/passing, or serve the greater narrative.

Take for instance the Shrek musical, of all things. It not only establishes that ogres are kicked out by their parents at the mere age of 7 (likely to reduce ogre density to prevent townspeople killing them) to ultimately make Shrek's backstory echo Fiona's more, but it also has Lord Farquaad be the offspring of Snow White and one of the seven dwarves, neatly explaining his height, his status as partial royalty, and his disdain for magical creatures.

I like the idea of Jafar having a similar backstory to Aladdin, showing the audience a dark path our protagonist has to take care to avoid. But don't much up everything else to get in the way of it.

It ruins the joke. It was a reference to putting on your "Sunday best" but now it's just an out of place reference to their actual religion

I don't know why Yea Forumsmrades actually spend money to see these films. While I don't understand why you even bothered watching this, thanks for the info OP.

The joke still works if the audience still gets what's being referenced.

And what audience is that? Islamists? Disney is showing that they want to remove all references to Christianity for the sake of pandering to fucking mudslimes.

Oh okay, for a second I thought you were concerned about the structure of a joke. Good to know you're just here to rant about your fucking culture war.

>I like the idea of Jafar having a similar backstory to Aladdin
One of the deleted songs from the original sort of implies a similar backstory (it's kind of vague about the actual details) so I don't see why people are flipping their shit over it. Granted, it doesn't really add much but it also doesn't detract anything either.

WHAT IS THE FUCKING POINT
WHY DO THESE REMAKES CUT SHIT OUT FROM ALREADY SHORT MOVIES JUST TO ADD OTHER POINTLESS SHIT
Jesus Christ, the Beauty and the Beast remake did this so badly already, rushing through a lot of the original scenes and lingering way too long on their shitty new ones, why do they keep doing this? You already have a blueprint, fucking use it and stop thinking you can do better than it, you worthless hacks

That second reply wasn't even me, I have no idea what that nut's going on about. I'm just protective of Robin Williams' jokes, believe me

He didn't write the song

Between this and pushing the idea that women should be rulers over men, it's clear Disney is no longer being subtle about pushing its radical agenda

Yes, we all know how that story ends.

No, it's not pretty for any of the tricked parties.

Yes. it'll be hilarious when it breaks.

So slavery is fine when Muslims do it?

Or you're delusional and just awkwardly mashing your political enemies with wildly different views into a single enemy you can rage about, even if it makes no sense.

>It's their culture!

I don't think there's some overarching conspiracy of controllers, but it's fucking obvious how certain groups are acting and how others are taking advantage of them.

It's like someone rubbing peanut butter on their balls and offering them to every dog they meet. You know what will happen when he meets a vicious dog, but up until the dam breaks everyone is doing what feels good and following their nature.

Best book. The horror mystery trappings were aces

All I'm saying is that if/when a great and terrible race/culture war happens, it will be right-leaning white men who come out on top, due to a number of physical, mental, and financial superiorities.
As part of that group I will benefit greatly, even though I don't want it to happen because it makes me feel bad. It's just the facts man.

I don't even know where you're going with this analogy

>though I don't want it to happen because it makes me feel bad
And that is why when it does happen, emotional little bitch boys like you will not be spared. You'll hang with the fags and the trannies.

>Jafar only wishes to be a sorceror when Jasmine convinces the guard they can just ignore the sultan title.
What

That’s pretty much what happened in the cartoon

>Wishes to be most powerful being in existence
BLASPHEMY! HE SHOULD HAVE TURNED HIM INTO ALLAH!

Going to be honest, if you're casting real fucking magic, nobody's going to give you shit about not being a sultan anyways.

Oh no I'm ready and willing for this culture war, but it's not something I actively desire and strive for. Wise men hope for peace and prepare for war and all that Jazz.
I think what he's saying is don't feel pity for the guy who gets his balls bitten off- he should have known the consequences. Like sticking your hand in a beehive to try and get honey. The groups working the hardest with this propaganda are largely the suckers that lose the most from its effects, and you can't stop them from burning themselves.

No, i think he just point out how difference slaves were treated and how their life was affect by that treatment at that time period. Also it not all sunshire, if i remember correctly some of the males got their dick cut off .

>Oh no I'm ready and willing for this culture war,
No, too late. You showed your true colors. You won't be spared.

I know you joke but I actually got into an heated argument with a acquaintance when I pointed out that there never was an abolitionism movement within the Islamic world and only the West spearheaded this;The acquaintance in question was a Labour voter. There is also this meme that slaves were treated with more dignity under Muslims than Christians... At least the Christians allowed niggers to keep their genitals while Muslims castrated their slaves.

This is smarter, at least then your slaves don't cuck you as happened so often in the American South

I really depend on how you look at it. Keep your genital but being beaten day by day when you can't make enough for your owner or lose your genital but have a better life and social standing.

Are you really surprised, though?

I think i'd prefer to keep my dick DESU.

Also wasn't slave owner sometime cut their slaves hand or leg off as a warning for other slave too.

Sorry, that's MY dick now slave

>look master, I know you love sucking dick, but one man can't have ALL the dicks to himself!

Look up the Zanj Rebellion.
That was an uprising of African slaves against the Abbasid Caliphate that lasted over a decade and the death toll is calculated to be over 2 million, which is frankly absurd considering this was the 9th Century.

A man without his D is no way of living.

The person I was arguing with would have disagreed with you which is funny because he was black.

>Here you have to rub the lamp while making the wish, so Aladdin has Abu rub the lamp while he makes the wish. The genie still granted a wish when getting them out of the cave, it's just that he granted it for Abu.
This makes so little sense it's hurting my brain.
If the rules are loose enough that it's totally OK for someone to make a wish by proxy, then how are they also not loose enough for the genie to just say "no, fuck you, that counts"?

Why have rules like "no wishing for more wishes" but then have it so you could just make a fucking dog rub the lamp and then say "oh well he wished for me to get a trillion dollars, but that's one of his wishes, not mine"?

I know this type of shit doesn't really matter but it makes you wonder why they bothered to change it at all if they just made it stupider, but then again that's basically the entire thesis of these Disney remakes, isn't it.

I will not be lectured by a SLAVE, boy! I will suck my collection of dicks as often as I damn well please!

>Muslims castrated their slaves.
Only the harem guards

I mean it's not like there's really anywhere else to cast Indians from than Bollywood since Hollywood barely casts any in their films

That would have been terrible. Robin Williams wasn't just good for his high energy, but his great impressions and clever improvisational skills. Jim Carrey has manic energy, but he's a slapstick/physical comedy actor, which would have been fucking annoying in a movie where he's not the main character.
Like, that works in Ace Ventura because Ventura's zaniness is the whole point, he's the main character. In Aladdin you'd be trying to follow the story of the main character against a villain while this annoying sidekick character won't stop acting like a retard.

It wasn't just the harem guards. Eunuchs filled several administrative positions and the demand for them was very high.

Oh so like, completely different.

At the very least Carrey is white. This is a white originated role, but Disney has to push their leftist agenda so it HAS to go to a negro rap gangster and not another white comedian.

I predicted all this shit back in December.

All those changes sound awful. Why change how Jafar is tricked? It was totally perfect in the original. It's not any sort of stretch, Jafar makes the wish without considering the consequences after getting baited by Aladdin, and Genie doesn't realize them either. The concept of "freeing" the Genie hasn't even been mentioned to Jafar, while Aladdin has been made totally aware. You can even keep the "always second at something" angle. But Jafar wishing to be the most powerful being in existence and then Genie goes "hmm, that's vague, how about a genie!"? That's fucking stupid. What if something more powerful than the Genie existed and this was known to Genie and not Aladdin? They'd be fucked.

He should have been turned into Allah.

Why is this called ALADDIN? It should be called JASMINE. Cucked beyond belief.

I'm curious about this too desu
She was really hot in Power Rangers and the stuff around that film but all the stuff I've seen of her in this she kind of looks off. Idk if it's the hair and make-up or costume or what but she looks weird.

>Ben Kingsley isn't Jafar
>Auntie Shohreh isn't Sultan's wife in flashbacks

this movie was dead in the water.

>Jafar
>not turning into fuck awesome giant king cobra
Final nail in the coffin for me

>Sultan explicitly mentions Allah in original
To be fair, Allah was the supreme god of Arabs even before Islam. There were just other gods worshipped besides him.

You will not be getting a sexy midriff revealing Jasmine in 2019. They are giving her TFA Rey treatment.
>More adult live action version
>can't show Jasmines midriff
>Belly dance, also referred to as Arabic dance (Arabic: رقص شرقي, translit. Raqs sharqi, literally: "oriental dancing"), is an Arabic expressive dance
>Disney's new Jasmine on the left
>cover up Aladdin's chest with a gay shirt
The fucking early 90s cartoon was allowed to be more edgy than the more "adult" live action remak

>"but patriarchy"
>"fuck patriarchy"

How brainwashed to see SJW shit that isn't there do you have to be to become like this? I just saw the movie. The word "patriarchy" isn't even stated in the movie. Not once. Also, its a fucking remake. What you call that word, was also exactly the same in the original. I think you probably set the world record just now for the fastest a movie review became biased in history.

You're thinking of Assaullt on Arkham, the animated movie that came out tear before he live action one.

I knew as soon as they cast a handsome guy as Jafar, they would make him a sappy backstory villain.

Or a being whose race has been known to be a threat to gods and man alike.

I'm disappointed they didn't include Proud of Your Boy. Memes aside, it's a great song.

Fuck off, I like sympathetic villains more than cartoonish bad guys who wouldn't exist in the real world and this sounds like the movie's one positive change.

>The sultan decides "fuck patriarchy" and makes Jasmine the new sultan (which is kind of pointless considering the circumstances that pressurred him into finding a successor were fabricated).
Aha ha ha ha this is so retarded the snackbars are gonna freak

>Mayor religion
Oh please, it's at most city councilman religion

Did they remove the Nordic prince suitor in reshoots after the woke crowd complained about skin color casting? Is that the other country thng you mean?

Keep the other genie, the one in the Ring, and get Jeff Daniels to play him so Carrey can have someone to bounce off besides Aladdin

>The word "patriarchy" isn't even stated in the movie.
Uh, sure, the word isn't used but the concept is clearly there.

>remove all references to Christianity
>In Aladdin
Must be quite the task.

That's fine, sympathetic villains can be good, but Jafar is not a symapthetic villain, he's psychopath, there are people in real life without any excuse or reason for their actions, they are simply jerks.
