Twitter Has a Lot of Feelings About Will Smith's Genie After Full 'Aladdin' Trailer Drops
Welp, it's finally here. The first full trailer for the live action Aladdin movie-which hits theaters May 24-dropped during the Grammys commercial break, and Will Smith was right...he sure is blue.

After Entertainment Weekly debuted the first look at the cast and film, fans were already ripping it to shreds, especially because it seemed the iconic Genie-originally voiced to perfection by Robin Williams (R.I.P.)-would not be the big blue guy we know and love. Smith assured us we were wrong, and well, here we are.

NOPE. NOPE. NOPE.
I AM NOT HERE FOR THIS.
Get the OG Aladdin on Blu-Ray instead of whatever that bootleg CGI trash that I just seen. https://t.co/wT4afbtzEjpic.twitter.com/G47f650tOg

We'll still wait to see the movie before reading it to shame, but things aren't looking great?
