Live action ALADDIN | Vocal Coach Reacts

Naomi Scott sang part of the second speechless live on the set which made it all the more impressive

usually live actions feel a bit unecessary but this aladdin just feels like it adds a lot. it’s just exciting and fun

I actually think Aladdin is probably one of the best live-action adaptations Disney has done so far 😍

i love how hannah’s favorite parts were Jasmine, Jasmine’s dresses, Jasmine’s voice, and Jasmine’s acting 😂

I feel like hannah should watch into the woods next. It might not be the most amazing movie but there is SOO MUCH material for her to react to!! (please like this so she sees. I honestly just really want her to watch it 😫😫😫)

Naomi Scott and Mena Massoud did a great job, oh my gosh. Their chemistry and voices really tie the movie together.

Naomi actually said in an interview that she sang speechless live when they filmed it and that’s so impressive considering speechless is such a hard song

I love how much Naomi’s voice has grown since her Lemonade Mouth days.

Fun Fact: So Hannah, in Speechless, Naomi Scott recorded this scene in one take and it's live, so we're hearing the "raw" voice in the scene. love you

This is definitely the best of the musical live action adaptations, Mena is an excellent Aladdin (Hollywood please cast him in things!!). Naomi is so perfect as Jasmine, and Speechless is an utterly phenomenal song. the best animated to live action overall is Cinderella (2015), but this is a very close second.

fun fact: when jazmine was singing speechless she actually didn’t record that before that was her live voice in that moment with no auto tune

As a former Disney entertainment cast member who spent a lot of time with Jasmine, this was so exciting for me to see! I agree with your notes. One thing I will say, is I didn’t mind Will Smith bringing some rap elements to the Genie. He was very humble in acknowledging that Robin Williams “didn’t leave a lot of room for improvement” in the role, and it almost kept Will from taking it. I believe he said what helped him was taking a step back to see what he could bring to the Genie. Robin Williams was obviously an incredible impressionist and they brought that to the cartoon Genie. Instead of Will copying that aspect of the role, he leaned into his Fresh Prince persona and brought that to Genie. When I look at it from that perspective, I can appreciate it more and see how each actor brought their own “signature” to this iconic role. Overall, agreed with everything else you said! (Also I think Will was CGI’d in Genie rather than painted blue and enlarged, so your “uncanny valley” comment is spot on!) thank you for reviewing this! It made me smile 💙

As a gay guy myself, I've loved seeing how much gayer your videos have been getting as you're more openly comfortable and open with your own queerness! It's genuinely inspiring.

What I did like about this version of Aladdin is that it was just enough different from the cartoon version that it could stand alone. I like when Disney makes the live action movies to stand on their own instead of try to match exactly like the original. I loved cruella the live action of 101 dalmatians :) that doesn't have a ton of music but it is a good one. Another great reaction Hannah keep it up :)

The live action Aladdin is honestly my favorite Disney live action. Granted, I haven't seen many of the others, but this worked so well in my opinion!

Naomi Scott is absolutely stunning. This is probably my favorite live action Disney re-make. Her 'Speechless' and Will Smith's 'Prince Ali' were so freaking good.

Oh my god my dad would not stop singing speechless when this movie came out, like he would even tell my mom whenever we were going out that she looked so good it left him “SPEEECHLEEEEEES” 😭

A lot of people said they hated the versions of "Speechless" as it gave Jasmine more of a feminist role, I thought it only added to her charcater. The growl in "Speechless" is just awesome, I can't ever get it right when I try to sing that song. I LOVED Will Smith as the Geini, I think he did a great job in singing and everythign. There was/is some behind the scenes videos of the trio working on some fo the songs and they all looked like they were having a blast! I think you need to do Phantom of The Opera next, maybe with Sierra Boggess, or even Sweeny Todd with Angela Lansbury! <3 your show Hannah!

The “meh” feeling always happens when you translate animation to live action, in my opinion. With animation, you can add change and warp the backgrounds and characters to match the action. But with live action you have limits, making it feel lack luster.

I thought the rap part of Friend like Me was what made Will's different from Robin's and I loved it! By far, my favorite live action remake
