#REVIEW: “ALADDIN” DIAMOND EDITION ON BLU-RAY
Review by Justin Waldman for Mr. Will Wong
Anyone who knows me knows that I love all things Disney and Pixar. It is an extremely safe assumption to say that I own all of the animated movies the studio has put out in the past 20 years and has seen each and every single one of them with a few exceptions. Aladdin is one of the all time greats, and thankfully Disney has released it from the vault, giving it a Diamond Edition on Blu-ray with a slew of new features.
First off, the first feature on ...
