Tom Hardy as Jafar is quite frankly genius,

It's not whitewashing when it's the villain.

>white land owner corrupting the sultan putting down all the little immigrants and colored people
>flea infested trans immigrant boy standing up to white man!
>fridge Jasmine completely clothed to hide her no curves

I'll be comparing him to robin williams in every line, and he will lose

This is L I T E R A L L Y the only active thread on Sup Forums to use the word 'Aladdin'. Making jokey little threads referring to Will Smith being genie does not aid discussion on a board.

You are autistic.

>fridge Jasmine completely clothed to hide her no curves
This is the saddest thing about the whole ordeal. She'll dress conservately and "fitting the time".

This as well, he won't go into those threads and point out that they're shitposting though. Likely he's the OP of one of those other threads and REEEEing about losing some (You)s.

Why doesnt Shaq play the genie, he has experience.

Since it's live action, will Will go blueface?

>hey Al can ya make me a sandwich
>no
>NO MORE WISHES AL

So who's gonna play/voice the monkey? Chris Rock?

Andy Serkis

NOW HOL UP
SO WHAT YOU DONE SAYIN'
*smacks lips*
IS WE SOME KINDA
MAAAGIICCC LAAAAMMPPP'N SHIIEEET!?

I think the two leads look pretty good. Would they really not get shit for casting Tom Hardy as Jafar though? I know they wouldn't dare do brownface, I guess they'd have to change his character completely? Jafar was a high-ranking official, they'd have to come up with some hokey explanation as to why he was a white dude.

>Wayne Brady

Reddit is that way you fucking worthless faggot>

Will he be blue?

Good casting overall. Hope Will Smith doesn't use his usual "black" humour for the genie. "AY YO THIS BE SOME REAL SHIT"

>you want wishes? what i am your slave al?
