Some sort of issues

Today, I tried to rent the new Aladdin with my '90s obsessed war vet roommate. Thirty seconds into the opening credits, he begins screaming that the movie is trash, and then rents out the original. He re-rented the new one and trashed it the whole time, ranting that Jasmin should be beheaded for speaking over a man. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.

Same thing different taste

Aladdin, the story, was originally set in China, and the remake is set in Mughal India. And even if it were set in the Ottoman Empire, that wasn't a thing back then--that's a modern-day 'evangelical Islamist' thing. Your war vet friend has no idea how history works.

I strongly suggest you move out.

She certainly should.

The original one, with princess Badrulbudur and an 8-year-old Aladdin?

Wait? We can do that? I could have women that talked over me beheaded? Why am I just finding out about this now? That coulda saved me a lot of trouble!
