Personally, I thought Mena did a great job for the most part, but अलादीन was changed from being a confident smooth talker to a socially awkward dork (and I mean dork in a nice way). The original अलादीन had a couple awkward moments where he stumbled over the right words या कहा the wrong thing but they barely happened. Remake अलादीन suddenly became incredibly awkward at the drop of the hat at one point in the movie. Some people probably didn't mind that but it bothered a lot of fans.
Favorite Jasmine

Both versions of चमेली were great on their own but comparing the two together it's understandable why some people didn't like the new चमेली as much as the old one. The original चमेली didn't have as much screentime as अलादीन but she left a huge impact on little girls everywhere with her fiery spirit and her infamous quote, "I am not a prize to be won!" Remake चमेली had और screentime just she didn't have as much spitfire as the original चमेली did. One user even कहा that they didn't like that चमेली became a "power-hungry politician". Naomi still did an amazing job as Jasmine, especially with the song Speechless. In the end, remake wins this one.

The remake sidekicks, mostly Abu and Iago, weren't as funny या animated as the original. Remake Abu acted और like a monkey and remake Iago acted a little और like the तोता original Iago pretended to be, only smarter obviously. The remake sidekicks weren't too bad, they just can't beat the original
Favorite Genie

O and R 2
No one could ever replace Robin Williams as Genie in our hearts, not Dan Castellaneta या Will Smith. Will Smith is no Robin Williams but he made remake Genie his own without being disrespectful and he made the audience laugh with his own jokes instead of just copying Robin. Original Genie won our hearts with jokes some of us still reference to this दिन and his impressions of celebrities, while dated, are still memorable. Remake Genie didn't do impressions but he was still funny even if some of them aren't as quotable worthy as the original Genie (my personal प्रिय are "In ten thousand years, I have never been so embarrassed." and A: She's a princess G: Awe, aren't they all?)
Favorite Carpet
O 6
R 1
Like the animal sidekicks, remake Carpet wasn't as animated as original carpet. To be honest, the only thing I remember about remake carpet before the climax is just it making sandcastles and even doing the classic डिज़्नी गढ़, महल logo complete with "fairy dust" over it.
Favorite Jafar

O and R 1
Original Jafar was a scary villain even when he was so calm and collected, he had the right look and the right voice. Remake Jafar didn't give that impression, especially when he almost लॉस्ट his cool at the party. A lot of people had a hard time seeing remake Jafar as an actual threat and thought he was miscast. However, a lot of people did like his new backstory that he was a thief in the past who aimed higher. Some people didn't like it as much, saying it was और of a lame rags to riches story.
Favorite Sultan

Like Maurice, Sultan was originally a comic relief dad who was then changed to be a और taken-to-be-seriously dad. Some people probably prefer the seriousness over the silly and vice versa.
Favorite Cave of Wonders
O 7
R
Inside and outside the original Cave of Wonders is an iconic character and scene with the infamous quote "Who disturbs my slumber?" In the remake the Cave of Wonders looks और like a cheap park attraction, it's mouth only moving to eat someone and even that wasn't too impressive and the inside was dark with only bits of treasure scattered around instead of being in huge piles. My husband कहा it reminded him of the Isla de Muerta cave in the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie and now I can't unsee it.

Two users who voted original/remake कहा that the "original/remake is और powerful" and one wasn't a प्रशंसक of the changed lyrics and कहा the remake didn't pack the same punch. They're both good songs, some of the remake's changed lyrics helped the song be और acceptable compared to the original (anyone remember the original lyric in the original Arabian Nights before they changed the lyric the first time?). There's just a lot of mixed देखा गया for this one.
Favorite One Jump Ahead

O and R 2
We're introduced to अलादीन in the original with this song and he's telling the audience why he does what he does. It's an animated song (both literally and figuratively) with a lot of comedy and action. In the remake we have already met अलादीन and is instead explaining this to चमेली while they're running away from the guards together. The remake One Jump Ahead is fun to watch and it is interesting to see चमेली included in this scene but it's not as great as the original. There weren't a lot of टिप्पणियाँ about why they picked what except for one टिप्पणी दे that one user did like चमेली was a part of it.

Mena was a good singer but this was definitely one of the times his गाना was pretty weak. I know I कहा it before but I'll say it again; the way he was गाना this song it was like watching a high school production. And in the original, this song was supposed to be depressing after अलादीन was looked down on for being a सड़क, स्ट्रीट rat. The remake version doesn't give that vibe at all, it feels और uplifting द्वारा comparison (I might not be using the right word for that)
Favorite Friend Like Me

O and R 1
The remake Friend Like Me was fun to watch with its own originality instead of completely copying the original and Will Smith did looked and sounded like he was really into it but once again, it doesn't beat the original. Though honestly, I'm glad the remake took out the part अलादीन almost kissed one of the girls.
Favorite Prince Ali
O 5
R 2
Original Prince Ali had a lot going on, with Genie shapeshifting, अलादीन looking like he was having fun and playing the part of a prince, great singing, just a fun song. The remake Prince Ali didn't have shapeshifting except Genie only dressing up in drag (which, compared to the original seemed really out of nowhere), अलादीन looked like he was embarassed या awkward and wasn't riding Abu the elephant, Will Smith's गाना being subpar compared to Robin William's singing, and was kinda boring. I can't speak for other people but honestly, I felt really bored when I watched this scene and was just waiting for it to be over.

The only reason दिया for this one is it sounded like High School Musical to that user. The remake wasn't as great as the original but both sounded beautiful. The original brings और nostalgia though.
Favorite Jasmine's Reason to Go to the Marketplace
O 2
R 4
O and R 1
In the original चमेली ran away because she hated feeling so trapped and having her life lived for her while in the remake चमेली wasn't running away from घर she just wanted to see her kingdom since she was locked up in her घर ever since her mother was murdered. Both reasons aren't bad, though I have to सवाल Jasmine's plan since she just left with no money and never planned on going back. So...what was the plan exactly? Still, not a bad reason to leave the palace forever it just feels like she could have put और thought in this.
Favorite अलादीन and चमेली meeting
O 4
R 2
O and R 1
First impressions are important, and saving someone from getting their hand chopped off या getting their bracelet taken aren't too bad. In the original अलादीन sees चमेली is in trouble after she accidentally steals an सेब to feed a starving boy and jumps in to help her. Using quick thinking, he tells the merchant चमेली is his crazy sister and "returns" the सेब and they're able to walk away. In the remake चमेली gives some children apples and when the merchant accuses her of stealing she defends herself saying the children were hungry. The merchant then tries to take Jasmine's mother's bracelet but अलादीन gets between them and gently tells चमेली to trust him as he gives her bracelet to the merchant. As they walk away अलादीन reveals he was able to sneak the bracelet back and they make a run for it. While चमेली and Aladdin's meeting is cute in the remake in the original we see Aladdin's quick thinking and smooth talk at work and चमेली pretending to be out of her gourd and hers and Aladdin's interaction always brings a laugh out of the audience.
Favorite Cave of Wonders scene
O 5
R 1
O and R 1
As I कहा before, the inside and outside of the remake Cave of Wonders isn't as amazing as the original. There's some changes with action in the remake. In the original Carpet is messing Abu until Abu loses his cool and अलादीन finally sees it, in the remake Carpet is pinned under some rubble (how'd that happen?) and अलादीन helps it get free. And in the original Abu is the only one tempted द्वारा the treasure while अलादीन has a single short moment of weakness when he's almost tempted until Abu snaps him out of it. The escape from the cave when it's self destructing isn't as intense as the original and the special effects could have been better. Jafar's betrayal wasn't as scary as the original, only stepping on Aladdin's fingers so he could fall instead of brandishing a scary crooked dagger.
Favorite Genie Introduction
O 4
R 1
O and R 2
Remake Genie's introduction was pretty good, giving a serious introduction but then stopping to look around for the "real guy in charge". But in the original there's not just smoke, the lamp actually goes crazy a little and lights up and Genie comes out looking giant and intimidating until, "Whoa! 10,000 years will give आप such a crick in the neck!" Remake Genie's intro was funny, but not as funny as original Genie's.

Favorite अलादीन and चमेली reunion
O 3
R 3
O and R I
Okay so at the time I hadn't seen the remake yet so I didn't know अलादीन and चमेली reunited twice. So I'll talk about both of them jic. In the original अलादीन sneaks onto Jasmine's balcony and she's understandably angry to see him after what happened earlier and wants him to leave her alone. He is able to convince her to go on a magic carpet ride with him and she starts to recognize him. In the remake there's two reunions; one after they meet in the marketplace because he wants to return her bracelet and the other where he sneaks on her balcony and convinces her to go on a carpet ride with him. The first reunion is sweet, with him still thinking she's Dalia and they plan to meet again the अगला night, the other where she asks him where Ababwa is and he "helps" her find it on the map. While she's not a प्रशंसक of Prince Ali at first either, she's not as aggressive as the original. I personally haven't seen any talk about what anyone thought of the remake reunions या which one they prefered so it's hard to really say anything about this.

In the original अलादीन and चमेली go out and see the world while in the remake they're flying around the kingdom.

R 2
O and R 2
In the original चमेली makes a टिप्पणी दे that it's a shame Abu had to miss out on the fun and अलादीन कहा it's okay because he doesn't like fireworks या flying before realizing his mistake. In the remake चमेली "sees" a monkey and asks if it's Abu and अलादीन says it couldn't be before realizing HIS mistake. Both versions were well done but there's always this one issue with the original that the remake fixed; why didn't चमेली सवाल how अलादीन was alive after being told द्वारा Jafar that he was executed and feeling depressed about it for a couple days? In the original she gets aggressive and yells at him. Yes, he lied to her but how did she not सवाल him suddenly being alive? One user who preferred the original कहा चमेली was being boring about it but personally I take that over original Jasmine's reaction

R 5
One user कहा they thought remake Jafar was too talkative in this scene while another user thought that the remake scene was और intense with the music. The remake version fixed another mistake from the original; there's no explaination why Razoul and the guards knocked out अलादीन and threw him off a cliff to drown him. Even if Jafar used his staff on them they would have looked like they were in a trance. In the remake if Jafar used his staff on the guards we know the people he's controlling don't look like they actually are in a trance when he's done. There might be mixed thoughts for this one but the remake still wins.
Favorite Aladdin/Genie argument
O 6
R 1
In the original अलादीन can't free Genie because he's scared that he won't be able to keep up the act on his own and Genie is upset while in the original if अलादीन is scared he's not दिखा रहा है it, he acts और cocky about it and Genie is disappointed. The remake अलादीन seemed very unlikable and out of character in this scene, and while original अलादीन feel like he could free Genie it's और understandable because he's scared.
Favorite version of the lamp being stolen

Jafar originally being a thief make a good callback when he is able to steal the lamp from अलादीन without him knowing until it's too late. But प्रशंसकों preferred the original because Iago was और useful.
Favorite Jafar's Hypnotism
O 6
R 1
The hypnotism in the remake was a little और subtle but most of the time I couldn't even tell if the staff was actually on. The staff had a beautiful डिज़ाइन but lit up like a child's toy. The staff in the original looked simple द्वारा comparison but memorable and the calm, creepy voice Jafar used sold the scene more.
Favorite Jafar Taking Over Agrabah
O 6
R
O and R 1
आप guys, Jafar took over Agrabah during a musical number. Of course original wins this one. Okay that's not the only thing :P In the original giant Genie picks up the palace and puts it on a mountain and Jafar uses his powers to take control of Sultan, Jasmine, and अलादीन like his own personal puppets, turns Rajah into a cub and Abu and अलादीन back to normal, and then banishes अलादीन and Abu to the ends of the earth. Original Jafar looks like he's having fun and sounds so smug while when remake Jafar takes over he just wishes to be Sultan, to be a powerful Sultan, changes Ali back to Aladdin, and sends him to the ends of the earth. It feels a bit rushed and Jafar is और serious than smug about it.
Favorite Banishment in Snow
O 5
R 2
In the remake we see और of Aladdin's use of parkour to help Abu and the carpet save him after he falls through the crevice into the snow. In the original अलादीन finds Abu and finds Carpet trapped and we see him use his quick thinking to keep Abu and himself from getting crushed. As impressive as remake Aladdin's parkour is, original Aladdin's quick thinking is one of the memorable things about his character and one of the reasons why he's so loved.
Favorite Battle With Jafar
O 6
R
O and R 1
As great as the chase scene was with giant Iago with the shocking Carpet "death" scene...it's still just a giant तोता and after the chase is over the climax is still dull compared to the original. Remake Jafar does take control of everyone but instead of treating them like puppets they're just frozen. Even the part where अलादीन convinces Jafar to wish to be a genie is unimpressive but not as unimpressive as Jafar in Genie form. The original had चमेली in a giant hourglass, Carpet unraveling, Abu getting turned into a toy, (all while Jafar is making PUNS) and अलादीन fighting Jafar as a giant snake. It's one of most epic climaxes any movie could have. At least in the remake climax they left out slave Jasmine. चमेली may have taken one for the team in the original but she was still 16 years old flirting with an older man and चुंबन him.
Favorite चमेली picking अलादीन
O 3
R 3
O and R 1
Both versions were very sweet, with चमेली running to अलादीन and he picks her up and spins her as she says she picks him in the original and with चमेली becoming Sultan, following अलादीन and telling him his Sultan orders him to stop, अलादीन asking if he's in trouble and चमेली responding "Only because आप got caught." I'm sorry but I thought that line was cute.

Jafar originally being a thief make a good callback when he is able to steal the lamp from अलादीन without him knowing until it's too late. But प्रशंसकों preferred the original because Iago was और useful.
Favorite Jafar's Hypnotism
O 6
R 1
The hypnotism in the remake was a little और subtle but most of the time I couldn't even tell if the staff was actually on. The staff had a beautiful डिज़ाइन but lit up like a child's toy. The staff in the original looked simple द्वारा comparison but memorable and the calm, creepy voice Jafar used sold the scene more.
Favorite Jafar Taking Over Agrabah
O 6
R
O and R 1
आप guys, Jafar took over Agrabah during a musical number. Of course original wins this one. Okay that's not the only thing :P In the original giant Genie picks up the palace and puts it on a mountain and Jafar uses his powers to take control of Sultan, Jasmine, and अलादीन like his own personal puppets, turns Rajah into a cub and Abu and अलादीन back to normal, and then banishes अलादीन and Abu to the ends of the earth. Original Jafar looks like he's having fun and sounds so smug while when remake Jafar takes over he just wishes to be Sultan, to be a powerful Sultan, changes Ali back to Aladdin, and sends him to the ends of the earth. It feels a bit rushed and Jafar is और serious than smug about it.
Favorite Banishment in Snow
O 5
R 2
In the remake we see और of Aladdin's use of parkour to help Abu and the carpet save him after he falls through the crevice into the snow. In the original अलादीन finds Abu and finds Carpet trapped and we see him use his quick thinking to keep Abu and himself from getting crushed. As impressive as remake Aladdin's parkour is, original Aladdin's quick thinking is one of the memorable things about his character and one of the reasons why he's so loved.
Favorite Battle With Jafar
O 6
R
O and R 1
As great as the chase scene was with giant Iago with the shocking Carpet "death" scene...it's still just a giant तोता and after the chase is over the climax is still dull compared to the original. Remake Jafar does take control of everyone but instead of treating them like puppets they're just frozen. Even the part where अलादीन convinces Jafar to wish to be a genie is unimpressive but not as unimpressive as Jafar in Genie form. The original had चमेली in a giant hourglass, Carpet unraveling, Abu getting turned into a toy, (all while Jafar is making PUNS) and अलादीन fighting Jafar as a giant snake. It's one of most epic climaxes any movie could have. At least in the remake climax they left out slave Jasmine. चमेली may have taken one for the team in the original but she was still 16 years old flirting with an older man and चुंबन him.
Favorite चमेली picking अलादीन
O 3
R 3
O and R 1
Both versions were very sweet, with चमेली running to अलादीन and he picks her up and spins her as she says she picks him in the original and with चमेली becoming Sultan, following अलादीन and telling him his Sultan orders him to stop, अलादीन asking if he's in trouble and चमेली responding "Only because आप got caught." I'm sorry but I thought that line was cute.
Original - 170 1/2 (the half is from the animal sidekicks)
Remake - 70 1/2
Original wins again!
The 2 Ellas!
Prince Ali, yes it is he
But not as आप know him
Read my lips and come to grips with reality
Yes, meet a blast from your past
Whose lies were too good to last
Say hello to your precious Prince Ali!
So Ali turns out to be merely Aladdin
Just a con, need I go on?
Take it from me
His personality flaws
Give me adequate cause
To send him packing on a one-way trip
So his prospects take a terminal dip
His assets frozen, the venue chosen
Is the ends of the earth - whoopee!
So long, ex-Prince Ali!
