Seeing Will Smith Genie has kinda made me realize that Aladdin is probably one of the worst movies Disney could've picked for a live-action remake since alot of the charm of the movie came from how far they were able to push the visuals and how much fun they had with all the- pic.twitter.com/uTsMPhUZlj

Something to look forward to? Or not…
