Aladdin or Beauty and Beast?

It is interesting that Beauty and the Beast got the best picture nomination (and it was an excellent movie BTW) when I thought Aladdin was just as good if not better.

Which of the two movies do you prefer?

I prefer Aladdin.

Aladdin, thanks in large part to Robin Williams' portrayal of Genie.

They're so different that I feel free to love both.

I agree. I can't decide!

Beauty and the Beast. But I LOVE Aladdin.

I love Aladdin, but I prefer Beauty and the Beast just slightly.

Aladdin by far. I never really liked Beauty and the Beast. Thought it was boring.

"Aladdin", mainly because it's a superior movie and it appealed to me more. Though I've grown to appreciate and like "Beauty and the Beast" more, I do consider "Aladdin" to be superior because of it's swashbuckling adventures.

I like Aladdin better.

I can understand why B&B got the Oscar nom though. It is more of a drama where Aladdin is more of a comedy.

You're right.
