    Interesting fact about this movie, the only character to not be shocked by the revelation that Mulan was a woman was the movie's villain, Shan Yu. This is because many Mongolian women were warriors who did fight, with a few even being clan leaders. That ironically means the only male character that didn't disregard her as a woman was also the one that really wanted to kill her.

    FYI to Suraj: the curly "auspicious clouds" motif (called xiangyun) is a common aesthetic design in traditional Chinese art, and it often symbolizes peace and good omens. If you look at any tapestry, textile, roof ornamentation, painting, or porcelain piece of Chinese origin, you'll likely find these kinds of clouds on it. So it's no surprise that both Mulan and Avatar: The Last Airbender thoughtfully use this motif frequently in their more cinematic scenes.

    37:40 China built the wall because Horse Riders from the north kept raiding their cities and people, not to "protect their technology and progress". China was one of the most active trading Civilizations in Asia, we have the Silk Road that's famous for being connected to China so that they could trade, Chinese people even came to my country (the philippines) and traded so much there that there's a large Chinese-Filipino population in the country.
    just wanted to clear that up. The wall was there to prevent raiders who wanted to plunder their land, not the people who were trading with them. and even if you did say that China was still Isolationist like Japan, their Isolationism was to protect their culture, not their technological progress.

      @@megamonster1234 The Mongolians consider themselves descended from the Hunnic empire and Genghis Khan held the legacy of Attila. Many Greek and Persian leaders saw themselves as descendents of Alexander the Great and the Macedonian kingdom. That was the legacy of their past. Cyrus the Great, Ceasar, William the Conqueror, are all names of historical conquerers who founded some of the greatest empires in history, yet none of their empires exist today. Italy still holds the legacy of Rome, England holds the legacy of Normandy and fought the hundred year war against France for it, Iran holds the legacy of Persia. Modern Tunisians consider their city to be Carthage. Carthage was decimated, the romans burned the fields and salted the ground to prevent replanting, the buildings were destroyed down to the foundation. Today Tunis is constructed on the corpse. They see Hannibal's victories in the second punic war as a point of national pride despite descending from the Berbers and not the Phoenicians, like the original Carthaginians. Legacy is complex, there is no perfect set of conditions to have a legacy, after all most nations that came after the fall of Rome attempted to establish a legacy even while the Roman empire still existed in Constantinople as the Byzantine Empire. Russia for time was known as Third Rome due to Rome being known as the home of Christianity and Russia established a religious legacy where it was holding the same place from Christianity that Rome had in the past.

    Besidees Frollo, Shen Yu is probably one of the most intimidating villains Disney has ever made, everything about him is played dead seriously, and with the late Miguel Ferrer's voice its really effective.

    Lea Salonga has the distinction of being the only person to do the singing voice for two Disney princesses: Jasmine ("A Whole New World") and Mulan ("Reflection").
    Fun trivia: Ming-Na Wen is the speaking voice of Mulan while Lea Salonga is the singing voice. The film came out in 1998. One of Ming-Na's early acting jobs was playing Lien Hughes on the soap opera As The World Turns 1988-1992 (I think). The character was 17, but Ming-Na was 24 (and looked 17). The character was written out when Ming-Na decided to pursue other roles. As The World Turns brought the character back in 2001 and had Lea Salonga played the role! At this time, Ming-Na was already a regular on ER. Lea was the right age for the part.

    One of my favorite parts of this movie was when Mulan revealed that she was the one who basically wiped out Shan Yu's army. The second it's discovered that she is a woman her teammates lose respect for her and her abilities, even tho they experienced them with their own eyes. But Shan Yu just said "The solder from the mountain", basically implying that he doesn't care that she is a woman but acknowledges that she is extremely capable no matter her gender.

    The idea that Genghis Khan had that many kids came from a 2003 study, evidence suggested a common ancestor from around ~1000 years ago, and Genghis was the most likely candidate they could think of that fit, basically complete conjecture. A newer study from 2018 (with about 50x the sample size) pushes the common ancestor back to around ~1500 years before Genghis. Which makes a lot more sense because at that time Central Asia was much less populated, and the population much more nomadic.

    I saw this in a theatre with with my niece and nephews on vacation and first loved the songs. I later listened to the full score and adored Jerry Goldsmith's full contribution to this movie. I own two CDs of this movie with each sporting a different cue for Mulan's decision to cut her hair and take her father's place. Both variations are worthy.

The part where the emperor refuses to bow to Shan Yu then drops his quote goes hard lol.. the part where the emperor just casually walks away from Shan Yu when Li Shang busts through the door cracks me up!! & the part where the emperor bows to Mulan always melts my heart..
    4:25 IDK about the other actors/actresses but the singing voice of princess Jasmine and Mulan is the same person! The talented and beautiful Lea Salonga..
    7:25 “I think people just wana have sons to put them in the army “ idk why that made me laugh so hard!

    History Nerd Alert:
    The Great Wall predates the Mongolians by many, many centuries, and this story takes place roughly five hundred years before Genghis Khan (approximately during China's Sui Dynasty, or perhaps the Tang). China built the Wall in stages and over centuries, with some dynasties and emperors expanding and improving it, while others ignored it completely. As it exists today, what you see is the restored sections of the wall from the Ming Dynasty, while the last Imperial Dynasty were the Qing (Manchus) who were formerly a nomadic pastoral peoples similar to the Mongols (but from modern Manchuria). They ruled to the far north of the wall (including Mongolia and parts of Siberia) and did not need it for military purposes.
    China had a lot of issues with nomadic tribes threatening their northern frontier, so whenever there was a local Han dynasty in charge of the country, the Great Wall was developed and maintained when possible. These enemies to their north changed frequently over the centuries, and the Huns of this movie represent a few of them. While they look slightly Mongolian, they are most likely Sogdians or from one of a variety of Turkic or Hunnic tribes to China's north--there were multiple peoples designated "Huns", just as there were a few labelled as "Tartars". The names of these foes and rivals would change a lot, with some peoples merging with others, evolving over time, or being driven out by another. Some of these peoples would invade and conquer China and set up their own dynasties. The people that today are known as Manchu, changed their name several times and are deeply intertwined with Chinese dynastic history. Their names went from Jurchen, to Jin, to Manchu. Other major groups that could also be an inspiration for the film's Huns could also be the Khitans who established the Liao Dynasty (and later the Western Liao/Qara Khitai) that ruled the far north of modern China, Mongolia, Siberia and elsewhere, and would have been contemporaneous to the film's time frame. They were eventually defeated and subjugated by the Jurchen, and thereafter the Mongols. The English name for "China" derives from the European word "Cathay" that was their designation for the Khitans.

    Grandma is 100% the best character. I aspire to that level of chaos when I'm old.
    8:24: when that synth kicks in though. It's so good, and also SO very much dates the movie, and it's not a bad thing :D
    16:26: OMG new headcanon just dropped. Internalized sexism is a hell of a drug. (only a tiny bit serious)
    18:08: and there is no singing for the rest of the movie. This hard cut is one of the most effective and chilling visualizations of the shock of war that has ever been on screen.
    19:45: the choice here to use steppe horses is *chef's kiss * these armies were feared not just for their fighting skill, but for their ability to appear quickly, and move faster than any other army of the time, and the horses were a HUGE part of that. These horses (ponies? I forget which way they are classified, but they're sturdy and small) made it possible for the army to cover vast distances in a shorter time, and the riders could shoot from horseback with their incredibly powerful bows, which meant they had range AND speed. At the time, although horses were part of other military forces, they weren't as versatile as these smaller, sturdier mounts.
    ANYWAY [/ramble about how cool the horses are)
    NO CAPES

    My late sister Loved this movie. And I can see why. I’m tickled over Suraj’s reaction over the animation and the music. My Number One favorite song is Reflection. When she hits those High notes. OMG!!! Turn. The. Volume. UP!! - my second favorite song is when she prepares to leave home. The HYPE as she walks inside the Ancestral house! The lighting is Sheer Dope!! - And yes my third favorite is I’ll Make a Man Out Of You. The moment Kicked off into High gear for me when she looped the weights around the wood. And then watch as she pushes herself to climb up as she slipped for a second and seeing the sweat on her face. LOVED IT!!! There’s something about that moment that makes you Wanna push yourself to the limits.
    My fourth and final favorite song is at the end. It’s called True to Your Heart by 98 Degrees with Stevie Wonder. The meaning behind it Slaps Soooo much Fire!!
    Not a Disney movie. But my god, I highly, Highly suggest you guys check out a movie called G.I Jane. It came out in 1997. You wanna see a movie about pushing limits???? That’s a movie I recommend for y’all to watch next.
