Hey, y'all! Welcome to my first مضمون of this series! I'll be talking about each detail from both a tradionally animated film AND a live-action one. Keep in mind, while I'm happy to give my input on a majority of these films, some I'm going to have to mentally prepare for in the meantime. But let's not go further into that. Let's get on with the show.
Today's مضمون will be about both versions of Aladdin.
The characters:
The character development for each character is well done. I'm not going to lie about that quality, but I'd like to point out afew things about the flaws.
Aladdin:
First off, the original Aladdin is at a crossroads when Sultan wants to make him a new Sultan, while the live-action Aladdin loses sight of who he is, but in a VERY slight way. (The line "Aladdin's gone. Prince Ali is here to stay." should ring a گھنٹی, بیل if آپ don't follow.) He loses sight of himself in that slight manner, but I love how he found that part of himself again as the story progressed. He starts to pick up the pieces after being captured, like the original Aladdin does. One thing I found precious about the live-action Aladdin is how he was struggling to find ways to talk to جیسمین, یاسمین after discovering she was the princess. That was TOO cute NOT to point out!
Jasmine:
Don't even get me started on Jasmine, especially the original one! Even though her دل is in a good place at times, the live-action one kind of makes her look slightly self centered. That's how big the live-action Jasmine's دل is! The live-action جیسمین, یاسمین actually KNOWS what to do when it's HER time to rule Agrabah. Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to talk bad about the original Jasmine, but the live-action جیسمین, یاسمین won me over in a record of minutes. سیکنڈ even. I WILL say THIS, though, I have to appreciate them keeping some of the original Jasmine's qualities and passing them down to the live-action one. While the original جیسمین, یاسمین DOES have some good qualities, she DOES tend to think a bit مزید about other stuff, while the live-action جیسمین, یاسمین thinks about the people of her country and not so much about herself. I liked what they did there.
Genie:
I'm clearly at a loss for words as I type this. No one can slay a role مزید than Robin Williams. Hell, no one is better than Robin Williams! I think I speak for all of us in this community when I say the original Genie holds a special place in our hearts. Now, when I heard the live-action Genie was going to be played سے طرف کی Will Smith, I couldn't help but think "He is going to suck as such an iconic character, especially an iconic character who was once played سے طرف کی a legend!", but, I was impressed with what I saw. He brought much مزید to the میز, جدول than I expected, but still, the live-action Genie doesn't hold a damn candle to the original Genie. I know there are going to be some of آپ who liked the live-action Genie, and I respect but no one can replace the legend who voiced the original Genie. RIP Robin Williams.
Jafar:
The live-action Jafar is ALOT DIFFERENT from the original one! The original Jafar was sorta creepy towards جیسمین, یاسمین if آپ ask me. The way he was when it came to him trying to marry her was just...Jacked. At least the live-action Jafar had enough audacity to leave her alone! What I like about the live-action Jafar is he was مزید power hungry and مزید focused on gaining the تخت for himself. Upon looks, the live-action Jafar looks like any other regular guy, and the original Jafar looks ominous. I get it, though, because a majority of villains are gonna look that way, especially iconic ones.
The Sultan:
There's no سوال that the original Sultan is lovable, but it's annoying how both Sultans kept جیسمین, یاسمین all sheltered from the outside world. Though, what I love about the live-action Sultan is he doesn't want to lose Jasmine. Another thing I love about him is he's compassionate. For example, he asks Aladdin how he can think him after defeating Jafar, and reassures him saying everyone makes mistakes after he apologizes for all the wrong he's done. I'm not saying the original Sultan isn't compassionate, believe me, I think he's just as compassionate, but with the live-action Sultan, it starts to become مزید evident at the end.
Abu, Carpet, and Iago:
I was surprised when I saw the live-action Iago had very little lines, if any lines at all. The original Iago is just so talkative it's almost obnoxious. I get it, though, because it's supposed to be comic relief. The live-action Iago staying silent was still surprising to say the least.
Both Abu's were about the same for me, but unlike the original Abu, the live-action Abu is alot less greedy. The original Abu was so greedy, he was almost ugly about it. Another thing I like the live-action Abu is he's taught a lesson سے طرف کی Aladdin about where there's a time and place to steal, and a time and place not to steal. I only have a minor complaint about him. I wish they had him stay an ہاتھی alittle longer, like they did with the original Abu when Aladdin was pretending to be a prince. Both Abu's are still good, though.
I have to say, both Carpets are flawless. I can't say anything bad about either of them. Yes, I hated not seeing the live-action Carpet pull Abu's bluff in the cave, like the original Carpet did, but that doesn't matter to me as much. Another thing I liked about the live-action Carpet is he gets ressurected سے طرف کی Genie after being cut. I was wowed سے طرف کی how similar he and the original Carpet are. They're both legendary in in loads of ways.
The music:
Oh my God, I was blown away with how close the songs were to the original versions! I have to admit, I was a bit skeptical of Will Smith doing Friend Like Me, but even he stayed true to the original version, even if he did rap just alittle during the performance. The newest song, Speechless, is BEAUTIFUL! I've never related to such a powerful number in my life! Talk about a confidence booster! I also like how there was a reprise of One Jump Ahead. (Forgive me, but, I've been calling it the "street rat" song.) I thought that was a neat touch. My only complaint is during a couple of the musical numbers, Aladdin was pitchy during one of his, and Genie was a bit off key during Arabian Nights, but I liked how they managed to pick themselves back up in the end.
The setting:
Small compliant, but, during the live-action version of A Whole New World, I wish they included the parts where they go all around the world, like they did with the original version, but I get it, because the whole thing would've been expensive. I liked the live-action setting, though. I thought it was similar to the original one.
The story:
Okay, I'm not going to lie, the original Aladdin's story is gold, but the live-action one blew me away! When we get to see the live-action tiger head, I almost spat out my water when he spoke. He sounded JUST LIKE the original one! Another thing I'd like to add is that I liked how they wrote in the live-action Genie falling in love with Jasmine's friend. They did good with that twist. Speaking off, the opening to the live-action movie was different, to say the least, but creative. I also liked how they included a wedding between the live-action Aladdin and Jasmine. It made me think of the third tradionally animated movie.
Oh, let's not forget about the party scene! As I mentioned earlier in this article, I thought it was adorable how the live-action Aladdin was trying to find the confidence to try and talk to جیسمین, یاسمین upon finding out she was the princess.
Plus, we finally know what happened to Jasmine's mother in the live-action adaptation. You're probably not surprised I'm mentioning this, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if they explored مزید into that in the future. I'm sure there already fanfics of that theory out there, and I respect people's creativity, but I think that's worth exploring more. Incidentally, knowing the live-action Sultan is extremely protective of جیسمین, یاسمین over this is rather understandable. آپ can't help but دکھائیں some sympathy. All in all, I'd like to see where the storyline goes with this in the future. It'd be interesting to see what caused it all.
مجموعی طور پر review:
The original: 10/10
The live-action: 10/10
I have to admit, I had my doubts about the live-action movie, but I was VERY impressed in the end.
That's it for this article. My اگلے one with be on both versions of Beauty And The Beast. Keep in mind, I might not be able to include all the characters in that one, but I'll try my best to at least give them a mention.
Thanks for reading! Much love, y'all! <3

Ready for your second Disco Party?
Yes, THESE designs.
As Long As You Love Me!
My opinion changes a lot almost weekly but every few months I update my پسندیدہ Disney Princess list, and I pretty much stick with it, until I update it again. This is my latest update of my Disney Princess list. Enjoy:)
14. Elsa
Honestly, she was sixth on my Disney Princess فہرست for a while, but I think that was the only length of time I actually liked Elsa. Other than that length of time, I've never really liked Elsa. I mean, I guess I like seeing so many girls relate to her, but I really don't like much about her.
She has a horrible personality, she blames everyone else for her problems,...
