I'm sorry but I'll take my chances with the historians at Disney. Everything they put out is 100 percent accurate.

Disney is basically bending over for China and hoping that the SJW crowd convinces the western audience to still watch this.
No thanks.

Hua Mulan - Wikipedia
According to the original legend, she was already a skilled fighter before joining up, fought with the army for 12 years, and was never discovered to be a woman until after she returned home.

Did she write her own songs in real life?

wasn't this kinda like a waterdown Aladin for its time anyways. I always thought the selling point was Eddie Murphy as the dragon, kinda a Williams Genie light.
Where was the Eddie Murphy dragon?
Even though its set in ancient China we need more black, hispanic, LGTBQ2SWiiA characters. I think Harvard knows how to deal with too many Asians, they should of been part of the casting process.

Assuming they are presenting to us what they think are some of the films best shots... the production quality and overall execution is bad, like really bad. Like this does not look like a 50million+ production. I'm very confused why Disney would put such a low quality crew on this film.

Looks like Disney is going for realism now. Lion King is basically National Geographic and Mulan looks like a chop socky Asian action movie.
We'll see how they play out.

If they do a live action Land Before Time then I think Brie Larson should play all the dinosaurs.

Actually I do feel like out of all the Disney movies this is the one that should be a live action remake. It has the most potential.
But.. I don't know about that trailer. Did I watch it at half speed or was everyone talking in slow motion.

I'm sure 10 or more years ago she would have been played by a white chick.

Disney facing backlash for not casting African American for Mulan in 2020 remake - NPC Daily
For a brief period in time, Disney proved how woke and progressive they are as they unabashedly cast a black female actress as Ariel in the upcoming live action remake. Upon releasing the teaser trailer for the upcoming 2020 live action remake of Mulan, liberals from across the nation expressed...

Oh this was Mulan and not some random Chinese movie from the last 15 years?

That's the unfortunate part of it all. This was like the one Disney film that really needed a remake and it just doesnt look like they really understood what to do with it.

Hey, they got her name right this time and didn't call her Fa Mulan (which is combination of cantonese and mandarin pronunciations) like they did in the animated film.
I think it's good they went with the more serious tone this time, as the original story didn't have Mushu or other fantastical elements, but I fear Disney will bruteforce some sjw agenda because that seems to be the trend right now...
I wonder if it'll be like the 2009 film.

Sure is great to see all of the personality and life sucked out in exchange for solemn griy. Yaaayyy...
Calling it now: Mulan always wanted to be a warrior now instead of doing it purely out of necessity to save her father.

You don't want kids to grow up as a girl killing mongols? Talk about not preparing your kids for the future. But seriously goddamn did those Mongols get away with all the shit they did in the past.

20 years ago she would have been played by Zhang Ziyi
Funny 20 years ago movies and TV was more diverse and authentic then they are now with all this force diversity.

As someone pointed out earlier. The original tale/story had her already trained. So the original Disney film was not true to the source material.
Hua Mulan - Wikipedia
"The Ballad of Hua Mulan is set in the Northern Wei era (386–536). The poem starts with Mulan sitting worriedly at her loom, as one male from each family is called to serve in the army to defend China from Rouran invaders. Her father is old and weak, and her younger brother is just a child, so she decides to take his place and bids farewell to her parents, who support her. She is already skilled in fighting, having been taught martial arts, sword fighting, and archery by the time she enlists in the army."
The movie mentioned above also has her as a trained fighter at the start of the story.
Mulan (2009 film) - Wikipedia
"The Chinese army conducts a nationwide draft. A retired soldier named Hua Hu insists on enlisting again to serve his country. Hua Mulan (Zhao Wei), his young daughter, is quite intelligent and skilled in various martial arts. But because she is a woman, she cannot enlist. At night, Mulan takes her father's armor and weapon disguises herself as a boy and slips out of the house with the family horse."

Then I'll allow it. xD
Still, because thy are going for a more generic action movie feel, I fear they will lose a lot of the charm the disney classic had.

I actually liked the original Mulan.
Most of the Ninties Disney films I do actually.
I guess that is why it bothers me so much how Disney is messing up the live action versions.
I mean when they accurately replicate the originals it great.
But id's always ruined by some unnecessary pandering and "new content"
I'm interested in who they'll get to do Reflections.

Looks good at least. Seems to be a straight retelling of the Mulan story with less Disney. Just hope they get the names right. Hua Mulan, not Fa. Also learn how to pronounce Zhou. It isn't Zoo.
I almost wanna watch a Chinese movie about Mulan so I can compare this to whatever's out there.
