[quote="Spartan Girl"]Holy crap, I haven't been on this message board in years but with the new movie coming out, now is as good as any to return! :D Even though I know I'm always going to love the cartoon more, I still think it's going to be fun. I know some of you guys think new Jafar is hotter than Aladdin, but I happen to think that Mena Massoud is pretty cute. I mean it's hard to measure up to cartoon Aladdin when we have been loving him for years, but he is easy on the eyes ;) Anyway, I just read Far From Agrabah and the movie novelization so I know what's going to be different. I like that they've added a bit more to Jasmine with her wanting to actually rule on her own and have an actual say in things -- that was pretty in character with her development in the series ("Riders Redux"). And giving her a female sidekick in Dalia is good because there is a short supply of Disney Princesses with female sidekicks. Some changes I'm a tad annoyed by because I'm a purist when it comes to Aladdin. For instance [spoiler]they change Al and Jas' first meeting a bit, she doesn't get to pretend to be the crazy sister, which is a shame[/spoiler]. And Will will never be Robin but I'm okay with him doing his own thing. Anyway I'm willing to keep an open mind and save final judgment til the movie.[/quote]

The rest of the scene drags on. <br /> <br />4 - We've talked about this one. I still like it. It helps the part when Genie screws over Jafar <br /> <br />5 - I think this scene helps show how Jasmine's mother's death still affects them and how Jafar is abusing his power. But it's also not necessary. If they kept all of these scenes with Jasmine being contrary, it would get really old like WE GET IT. Although the ending of it also shows why Jafar might have been hypnotizing Ali at the harvest festival.

Great as that stuff was, the faux-Robin Williams stuff when Genie was granting Aladdin's wish really didn't land. Some stuff more like this deleted scene would've fixed that nicely. <br />Honestly though, any excuse to see more of Massoud's Aladdin and Smith's Genie interacting is a good one, so regardless, I'm happy to have seen this deleted scene. <br /> <br />The song... After all the talk of it before and around the release, I was intrigued, but now having heard it... Meh. It would've been the weakest song on the soundtrack. Just like the last time a new duet was written for Aladdin and Jasmine... And in the same place in the story, no less. <br />I still think they should've written some duet rearrangement/reinterpretation of Proud Of Your Boy to go there. There was so much setup throughout the film for that song to show up in some way, and I feel like doing it there in that way would've been a really cool, unique way to do it. But alas, I guess that song will remain the underrated classic it is for now. <br /> <br />As for the talk of a sequel... The best stuff about this film was when it was doing its own thing, so a sequel that realises this and does more unique stuff... Yeah, I'd watch that.

So, I admit maybe my expectations were too grand. <br /> <br />I am really not feeling this song. I think Meesh wrote it correctly. It doesn't have any Ancient Arabic folk-lore vibe. Sounds like a bad knock off of a Troy and Gabrielle song from High School Musical. A new love song would have been great. I feel it could have bridged the gap because I didn't sense a lot of chemistry between Mena and Naomi. I wasn't feeling it. <br /> <br />I just read there is talks of a sequel. I definitely will not be watching. I saw the live action 4 times in theater but each time I was very disappointed.

Like if he could have this much saying into wishes, why he never made Aladdin a real prince (he legit admits, that Aladdin is not a prince, just illusion, which is kinda goes against what the wish was) while granting all of Jafar's wishes just as Jafar wanted (mind you the whole 3rd wish thing was not even a twisting of his wish, since Genie himself said that genies are the most powerful beings, so he simply just gave that to Jafar)? <br /> <br />I don't know, just kinda makes him look not that good in my eyes. Disney seems to have a mentality that supposed good guys doing mean/questionable stuff is fine as long as it's played for laugh, ignoring how and what these stuff indicates to a character overall. Not too happy about that. <br /> <br />Plus honestly, this whole "genies can be tricky" stuff was portrayed much better at Eden. We saw why she "twisted" Abismal's wishes (plus hers were kinda clever and really showed the loopholes in the wishes Abismal made) while still portraying her as a good character with her introduction, her relationship with Dhandi and with Genie. <br /> <br />Honestly though the scene is fine, I can see people laughing on it, but not big fan of what it indicates plus how the actual movie goes.</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> </table>
