Unless you’ve been living under a rock you have probably heard about the new live action Aladdin movie coming out in May.

Folks have been very opinionated about the upcoming movie. I think it looks great but many, many people are upset with Will Smith being cast as Genie.

I totally understand the feeling that classics should not be messed with but I really enjoyed the live action Beauty and the Beast that came out a few years ago and I generally like Will Smith. Lets be real, there is no one they could have cast as Genie that wouldn’t have caused a huge uproar. Robin Williams set the bar so high that those genie shoes are impossible to fill.
