[quote="imekitty"]I'm thinking that maybe I just need to actually [i]see[/i] it on the big screen. :b It still looks beautiful, though. My only other tiny complaint is that Mena Massoud doesn't really look like Aladdin to me, which I think you mentioned in another thread. But it's a small thing and not something that would prevent me from enjoying the movie. Animated men have ruined real men for me; I just need to accept that... Then again, I think Adam Jacobs [i]does[/i] look like Aladdin. Like he really sells it. But maybe I just need to see more of Mena to buy his version, too.[/quote]

I may have said before, but I'm just hoping it's not OUAT-esque.

I live in LA, so I could do Disneyland. I'd empty my bank account and give my left arm to attend some official cast first screening though.

Still, I'm glad they got him in there. But hearing Gilbert back would have been amazing. <br /> <br />I guess it could have been Gazeem (or some other random) entering the cave but the trailer really sold it as Aladdin. The distant shot could definitely have been Gazeem, but the guard is still there in the close up as he enters. It's so shadowy it could be someone else, but it certainly looks like/was implied to be Aladdin. Of course it could have been shot just for the trailer as well. <br /> <br />Without Abu I'm guessing they'll handle the forbidden treasure/cave collapsing like they do on stage, where Aladdin tries to take something as a gift for Jasmine. Or maybe it was Gazeem entering the cave and that's why Abu wasn't on his shoulder. Still keeping my fingers crossed that the furry little thief is in there somewhere. <br /> <br />I'm glad they focused more on Aladdin for this teaser. It's his movie. Plenty of time for Genie later. And yeah, Will Smith will do a good job. They were always going to go for a big name with Genie (especially with unknowns as Aladdin and Jasmine, which I'm really glad they did) and Will can hit all the bases - acting, singing, dancing, comedy. As long as they've given him the freedom to do his thing rather than mimic Robin (which they say they have) then he'll be fine. <br /> <br />On that note though, I truly believe if Robin was still with us Disney would have done everything they could to get him back for this. Whether or not he would have we'll never know, but they definitely would have wanted it.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>zitagirl</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Fri Oct 12, 2018 8:39 am<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Lucky you, closest Disney World to me is the French one and I doubt I could just do a trip to Paris during exams XD.

Like, come on, we know it won’t be exactly the same as the original, neither Genie will be exactly like Robin, but doesn’t mean it can’t be good. It will be just different and hopefully it will find its own identity and will be good on its own as well.
