I didn’t like Disney’s Aladdin much, but have the Blu-ray and Disney Movies Anywhere Digital HD anyhow.
It seemed OK, just a bit too lightly done overall to me.
Since watching the anime of Magi (three different [one season each] shows on Netflix, which I very much liked,) I watched Disney’s Aladdin again last night, and dislike Disney’s Aladdin all the more.
I really wish Disney would take the whole westernized [as literature translations added to original One Thousand and One Nights] Arabian Nights ideas and do a much better animated movie and live action movie as well. One of the things I grew up with was those fantasy stories in books and coloring books. It impacted me greatly and I have not yet found a good modern period-re-telling as it could be done now-a-days.
