I am very glad you guys are all in love with this movie so far! I still think it looks like a TV show, maybe a Netflix movie at best, and not something prepared for the silver screen, but I'm sure I'll still end up loving it to death.
I do think the colors are gorgeously vibrant. Doesn't the original movie have one of the most colorful "movie barcodes"? I wonder if this incarnation's barcode will be just as colorful. ^^

The movie isn't finalized yet, so many of the CGI and effects are not finished yet. Pretty sure though in the trailers we will get a nice glimpse of the final version.
Depends for me whether I will like it or not. I might be a fan, but I also a bit critical, especially with things I like and care about. Hopefully it will turn out good, but I won't hesitate in telling the truth.
It sure has a wide variety of color uses, heck, it even uses a color coding for the characters and scenery. Hopefully that will remain for the live-action movie as well. |

I was talking more about the angles, but yes, the texture itself looks non-cinematic. |

I'm thinking that maybe I just need to actually see it on the big screen. :b It still looks beautiful, though.
My only other tiny complaint is that Mena Massoud doesn't really look like Aladdin to me, which I think you mentioned in another thread. But it's a small thing and not something that would prevent me from enjoying the movie. Animated men have ruined real men for me; I just need to accept that...
Then again, I think Adam Jacobs does look like Aladdin. Like he really sells it. But maybe I just need to see more of Mena to buy his version, too. |

Sorry I'm late to the party - had a busy weekend. Learned how to eat fire
- I'm not really concerned with whether or not characters look or dress like their animated counterparts because I'm not looking for a straight-up remake, but a re-interpretation.
- I'm relieved Iago is silent. See above.
- I don't think they would involve Robin in the new one, unless it was a cameo. See above.
- I have a movie-aficionado friend criticizing the effects of the new trailer, but I'm trying to be optimistic until the final product is out. I may have said before, but I'm just hoping it's not OUAT-esque. I am concerned in part because of the CGI in the teaser, but mostly because everybody (even Jafar) is attractive.
- oOoOo Disney screenings - didn't even know that was a thing. I live in LA, so I could do Disneyland. I'd empty my bank account and give my left arm to attend some official cast first screening though. Not sure how to hook that up.
- In the original, the magician gets pissed and foolishly traps Aladdin in the cave when Aladdin refused to be double-crossed. Hard to imagine Jafar doing this, but it could interesting if they made it believable?
- Will probably not watch in 3D unless I don't have a choice, at least for my maiden viewing. I do not particularly enjoy 3D.
- Not sure I'll be able to bring myself to listen to the soundtrack before I see the film because I want the experience to be totally fresh.
- I'm still a season behind in Doctor Who because it's (weirdly) not streamable in Ireland, where I lived for a year, during which time I fell off the wagon and just recently hopped back on. _________________

It's not so much I want him to LOOK exactly like Aladdin. I just want him to embody his spirit. Like I want to see him and think "oh yeah that's totally Aladdin and not a guy in a costume just acting." |

It's a little early to make that judgment I think _________________

I agree which is why it's only a tiny complaint at this point. |
