7 Reasons Why The New 'Aladdin' Is 100% Worth Seeing

In This Article:

After seeing "Aladdin," I was pleasantly surprised by the overall production of the movie, especially the casting as well as the music and dancing. It truly didn't disappoint. The movie was fun and entertaining, exceeding my expectations in every way!

1. The music

The music was obviously amazing! In particular, the vocals of the cast were awesome! They totally impressed me with their ability to sing with emotion and excitement. You can find me listening to the soundtrack all day long.

2. The casting and costume design

They truly lived in their parts, making their characters fun and believable. I mean, having Will Smith play Genie was genius (no pun intended). It also helped that their costume design was amazing. Most of the time, the costumes were identical to the original movie, if not pretty close.

3. The set

The set was gorgeous. It was identical to the movie — and that's not easy to do. Very well done!

4. The accuracy

Some would disagree, but I truly believe they did a great job at making it as similar as possible. Mostly everything was just like the original movie.

5. The choreography

As a person who has danced her whole life, the dancing was awesome. Will Smith and Mena Massoud killed it. Overall, the dancing did not disappoint.

6. The narration 

I truly feel they told the story even better than the original. It was more clear and filled in the gaps. I loved the way they told the story.

7. The nostalgia

It really brought back my childhood and made me feel like a kid again. I loved every minute of watching this movie as a young adult.


I thought this movie was awesome in many ways. In all, after reading this article, I hope that you go see "Aladdin" right now (if you still haven't done so)!

8 Things I Realized After My First Semester In College

Actually, Kylie Jenner, 2018 is the year of realizing things.

Friends

The first semester of college is famous for being one of the most difficult transitions of one's young adult life. You're thrown into a completely new area where the majority of the people surrounding you are strangers in an academic environment that's much more challenging then what you've grown accustomed to for the past twelve years. On top of that, you probably share a room with another person (or even multiple people) on the lumpiest "mattress" you've ever slept on.

With this change comes a lot of questions: what do I want to major in? What am I passionate about? Is what I'm passionate about something I'm actually good at? Why does the bathroom smell like cranberry juice and vodka? What is that thing at the bottom of the shower drain?

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.
