New ‘Aladdin’ Trailer Is Hilariously Awful

I can’t stop laughing. This is hot garbage.

I’m in shock. Legit and utter shock. This photo above is real. That’s a real thing, that’s really going to happen. How on gods green earth did Disney give the go ahead for this sort of nonsense? In a span of a minute, you heard a boat load of toilets flush because people all over the world are crapping all over this trailer, and rightfully so.

Can we start with Jafar? Why does he sound like a boys scout? He’s has least intimidating voice I’ve ever heard. Remember how awesome he sounded in the animated version? He was menacing and it was only a cartoon, I laughed when he spoke. I laughed a lot in this trailer. Everything is so off in so many ways, it’s all just hilarious.

Now for the main event.WHY DOES THE GENIE LOOK LIKE WILL SMITH? Yes, I’m all for him voicing the genie. But that’s such a Will Smith move. He doesn’t need to look like him, it’s absurd actually. Did the genie look like Robin Williams? No. What a poor choice and he looks bad. CGI might not be complete, but the marketing campaign for Aladdin is off to just a terrible start. My childhood was squashed in 60 seconds. Big time yikes Disney. See for yourselves.

  1. Hmmmm….I might have to agree with you. While Disney’s recent live-action remakes have been a hit (Cinderella, The Jungle Book, and Beauty and the Beast), I think this one has the potential to bomb.

    1. It’s due out in May. And they haven’t even had a full trailer yet. I feel like it’s just a giant mess

  2. I wasn’t expecting much from Genie but oh man Jafar! I laughed out loud myself. The whole trailer felt very off though kind of stilted and more like something I’d expect for television. Maybe a longer trailer will improve it but you’d think we would have had one by now.

    1. Yeah with this being released in only 4 months. They aren’t showing us much. Not a good sign
