Mena Massoud, who played live-action Aladdin, just felt the force of Halle Bailey's fans after he seemingly threw shade at 'The Little Mermaid.'

He was responding to an account that was reporting on how much 'TLM' was slated to make in its opening weekend -- about $115M, which it then compared to the $112M 'Aladdin' made in its opening weekend run. Mena had some thoughts on that ... some took it as shade.

Then came a remark that got Mena attacked. He followed up and said,"My guess is TLM doesn't cross the billion mark but will undoubtedly get a sequel." Unclear if he followed that up with any clarification on what he meant -- but this alone got Halle fans up in arms." trend yourself and see what they're saying ... but basically, the reaction wasn't good.
