I have not liked anything Ritchie has done for a long time;I doubt this will change my mind. I liked him when he was doing fun,inventive crime thrillers, but don't like his big budget work.

 

You and me both, I say, despite having only watched one of his low budget crime thrillers like eight times.

Genie in the drag + Warrior Jasmine + Bollywood dance = not in the cartoon

 

And it says "Jasmine will stand up for herself", which she always did in the cartoon.

 

 

And "Bollywood style dance numbers" could just be referring to the Arabian crowd dances. The movie was always a mishmash of Arabic and Indian cultural influences.

Robin Williams s performance in Aladdin changed the game forever.

 

[Fullbuster]

Well, I won't have Mulan before 2020 but I'll at least have Aladdin.

@Spidey Freak Oh shit!

Every time this thread is bumped, I’m reminded of two bad things: 

 

1. Guy Ritchie still directing this.

2. I’m agreeing with @Trolltastic Tele on something.

 

Not sure which one is more horrible.

At least everyone knows not to get worked up over or expect anything "ambitious" from Rob Marshall's live-action The Little Mermaid (he's not officially signed on yet but we all know he'll do it), right?

I am surprised Disney did not have a small teaser for this ready for IW.

Movie's more than a year away and they have a ton of stuff that needs promotion before this. Most likely the first trailer will land with Nutcracker.

But if feel like with all the teens and 20 years that love MCU are also the target audience for this. I just thought Disney would want to build the hype for this early. Still a long ways away.

Have faith in Ritchie man, I'm sure he won't let us down.

 

At least wait for a trailer, he deserves it from you.

He has let me down plenty over the past 15 years.....

As we all know, box office numbers mean a film is good.  If a film makes a lot of money, zero chance that it's bad

I like Guy Ritchie blockbusters but they do look atrocious visually.

The Two Sherlocks, King Arthur, he goes for those grey, brown tones all the time yuck !!!

Those films required a "grey" palette ... but Aladdin has been said to be very colorful what they showed on "behind the scenes". 

 

I wonder if the monkey and the parrot will be there in the movie.

I think it'll be sooner than that. Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast both had their teasers come out 10 months before their respective releases, so maybe a teaser might come with Christopher Robin?

Quote

“We got to write a new song for Jasmine,” Paul tells Variety. “Alan wrote a beautiful piece of music and [Scott] is incredible.”

They also wrote a duet for Aladdin and Jasmine. “It’s a sweet song,” Paul said.

They even got to write a new verse for the original film’s “Arabian Nights.” “Aladdin” is set for release on May 24, 2019.

Yes, a new song for Aladdin and Jasmine! I'm a sucker for their "parallel lives" themed love story.

 

A solo for Jasmine is also welcome. Really liked "To Be Free" from Aladdin: A Musical Spectacular

Good to know that Naomi Scott can sing. Considering that Hollywood is inexplicably putting her in leading roles despite unimpressive job in Power Rangers and poor resume, I guess there's more than meets the eye.

Who in this has a resume aside from Smith and Gitchie?
