We know Disney is a heavy hitter in the movie arena. For years they had hit after hit in the animated world. For years they have been taking their hits from animated to “live action”. Some were smashing successes. Others, well, not so much. Now it is Aladdin’s turn for a revamp. My big thing is Genie. He is being played by Will Smith. Now Will is a spectacular actor but how will his Genie hold up to Robin William’s Genie? Mena Massoud plays Aladdin and Naomi Scott plays Jasmine.

I reserve judgement on this and nostalgia bait can’t tempt me
It won’t be the same without Robin Williams. Heck, I’d even take Dan Catellanata again
And I love Will Smith, but he has giant boots to fill
