His vegan Instagram page followed me, and I was all smug about it. But now that I've followed back, I've been unfollowed so I'm salty about it
...But I like Mena as Aladdin. _________________

Ouch. I know if it was me I'd probably have cried, dumb as it sounds.

Oh, me too. I just wish they hadn't had to straighten his hair cause curls for days. _________________ Someone: You attract what you fear.

I've been screaming at his face for like two months now cause Disney really found the one person on Earth that actually has Aladdin's eyes/eyebrows, it's INFURIATING and I LOVE IT
Like seriously, just slap a vest on him and it's ridiculous.
But yes, every time his curls are straightened I cry a little |

Mena as Aladdin was fine, actually really liked some of the scenes of his. Now if only script was better and didn't make me dislike Aladdin at the breaking the promise part...
In terms of look, he does look quite handsome, but I don't find him sexy or really adorable. Not my cup of tea I suppose (or I'm just too nitpicky, as there's only 1 I found sexy in almost every way, but sadly he's fictional). _________________ You know your sanity is long gone when your favourites are a boy genius, a wacky genie, a mad man with a box and a deathberry |

They got the look down pat I was v upset about the added shirt, I won’t lie.
HE SHOULD HAVE KEPT THE CURLS or maybe let Ali have the curls and Aladdin wouldn’t? Or vice versa? _________________

He is PRECIOUS.
Who decided to give Aladdin dimples?? Who?? I'm so mad
And he knows like no Disney pop culture facts, which makes him even more precious, cause they'd quiz him on Disney lyrics or characters and he's like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

“My exercise regime for the film was really intense. I’d work out with a trainer six days a week, and then I had a stunt rehearsal team that would do boxing, stretching, and a little bit of parkour. And yet, people don’t get to see me shirtless in this movie. I don’t know if you’ve seen the trailer, but this Aladdin wears a shirt.”

They let Adam keep his! It would have been great to have his curls for Aladdin and then have it be pressed for Prince Ali, but over time they slowly start to frizz back up again and go curly cause he keeps sweating and running around in a general panic trying to get Jasmine's attention |

Me too; like, I love his hair (and him) period, but there's just something about those curls that makes me go all heart-eyed. #curlsfordays

I was thinking of Adam too! And the curls/no curls for Aladdin and Ali would have made sense seeing as he’s trying to make sure Jasmine doesn’t recognize him.
Omg the trivia video was hilarious: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=i5dMs0scjgQ _________________
