I can't imagine the stress that Disney feels when they reboot an old classic. People are very protective of these movies and are quick to judge after seeing just one trailer.
Disney's Aladdin was facing some serious scrutiny, but they've come close to redeeming themselves.
The movie was one of those classics growing up that a lot of us have watched probably dozens of times, if not more.
It was our first glimpse of Will Smith as the Genie, and nobody liked it.
People realized that the Genie being blue was one of those things that looked cool when animated, but didn't translate well in live-action.
We were able to see that Will Smith isn't blue for the entire movie, and he actually looks pretty cool!
The trailer actually made the movie look pretty good, and a lot of people are giving it a second chance.
It almost seems like they toned down the blue for the full-length trailer.
It is pretty weird how he's being marketed. It's like Disney couldn't decide if people wanted blue Genie or not.
I guess we'll have to watch the movie to get our answers!
Clearly, they have someone reading the comment sections and reporting back — thankfully!
