Sorry, not sorry
Here is the first of my new series of columns I plan on featuring once a month. As I visit with friends and coworkers, I have found that I have my fair share of âunpopular opinionsâ on several things.Â
I have decided to share my unpopular opinions through a âsorry not sorryâ column. While some may be funny and light-hearted, helping to lessen some of the gray that seems to fill our lives more and more all the time, others may address âhot buttonâ topics facing the community, state or country.Â
For my first unpopular opinion, I would like to come flat out and say that I
absolutely despised the new remake of âAladdin.â I gave the movie more than one chance to blow me away and bring back those happy childhood memories that came flooding back while enjoying âBeauty and the Beastâ and other classic remakes, and it simply could not deliver.Â
I found myself paying more attention to the background in the movie than the action that was happening in the forefront. Why, you may ask? Because I was waiting for Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens to make their âHigh School Musicalâ debut dressed in full Indian garb.Â
This Bollywood feel that the movie portrayed was absolutely ridiculous and left me begging for more. The fun and excitement of the story of Aladdin was meant for cartoons and should have stayed in the â90s where Walt Disney intended it to be.Â
Sorry, not sorry.Â
