fun fact: after "a girl worth fighting for" ends and they see the village, not only are there no more songs after that (which represents the way they now take this war seriously) the girl with the doll represents the real 'girl worth fighting for', the kids who are losing their lives to the huns.
33:46. Fun fact: The reason Shan Yu said “You’re the soldier” instead of being surprised that Mulan was a woman was that historically the Huns held women in high positions and in the army
I love that I now also know this and will be sharing this absolutely useless information with everyone as if if we’re some kinda share to break the curse text😭😭
Fun facts Mulan is the Disney princess with the highest kill count You'll probably notice that after the burning village there aren't anymore songs as the movie takes a more serious tone There is an inaccuracy with Mulan cutting her hair as men also kept their hair long since hair was seen as a gift from your parents and cutting it meant you were disrespecting them. The children on the other hand with short hair is accurate and children were allowed to cut their hair since it meant their parents were the ones doing it. Also Shan Yu never mentions the fact that Mulan is a woman because at the era of this movie it was common for Huns to have female warriors, so he's probably already seen female warriors. Definitely check out Xiran Jay Zhao's analysis on the Mulan movies she's great
Just for a moment gonna shout out mulan’s privilege among Disney protagonists, starting and ending the film with both parents alive + a grandmother. Even moana doesn’t get that privilege, but I guess mirabell does.
Yep, this was what life was like for women in Chinese history around this time. Confucianism was big in those days, and in Confucianism, they're big on societal roles, the theory being that by strictly adhering to how things are 'supposed to be', one can maintain a harmonious society (contrasting with Taoism, which was much more about being more fluid and flexible, adjusting to when life throws you curveballs rather than trying to force things to be right). And for women, that means being obedient and devoted to your father when you're young, your husband when you're married, and to your son when you're widowed. Also fun fact, this movie is well known for being the queer awakening/egg-cracking moment for a LOT of millennials. From the song about ones reflection not showing who they are inside, to Mulans fake name, Fa Ping, literally being a Chinese slang term for a gay man, to Li Shang with his shirt off...
4:32 it’s meant to be traditional Chinese makeup that was popular during the Han dynasty since Mulan was set during the Han dynasty. However the creators of this were white obviously so the actual makeup she wore in the movie is much more inspired by the Tang dynasty and they even mixed in Japanese Geisha elements, which isn’t really that accurate but either way, all the colors all have symbolism with these makeup styles.
I never thought you'd ever watch Mulan Scoot! And your right, the songs in this movie are absolute bangers hell songs like "Reflection" and "Honor To Us All" are considered to be two of the most iconic songs in the history of Disney movies!
7:50 "I don't know if it's real, or if that would actually happen in america, I think it's possible" it's real and has happened, it's called the draft /lh /srs
*Honestly, as much as I love how sassy Mulan's grandma is, my favorite part of the movie is Yao roasting Chi-Fu in the song "A Girl Worth Fighting For".* *Chi-Fu: 🎶I've a girl back home who's unlike any other🎶* *Yao: 🎶Yeah, the only girl who'd love him is his mother 🎶* *Just the look on his face ALONE is priceless.* 😆😆🤣🤣
B.D. Wong voiced Lee Shang, but the "Make a Man Out of You" song was sung by Donny Osmond! I got to see him in concert a few months ago; one of the best things I've done this year. He's nearing 70 and can still sing his A off!
7:40 On the men being drafted into war, you should watch Saving Private Ryan - its been years since I seen it so I could be wrong but I think the plot revolves around the last or only son being drafted!
I loved this movie, and I honestly find it fun, I find it has a lot of good songs, it has good humor and laughter, I enjoyed this movie. Plus, you can't go wrong with Eddie's voice acting in this one and that just made it funny and great.
it IS like Clark… while she’s not as good about it she does carry herself differently in boy mode… and you said it yourself it does change her face a bit… and that’s for the people (men) who actually look twice at her in girl mode
9:22 I saw this on another reaction channel watching this movie and one of the reactors is Chinese and this part upset him, because according to him, the warriors doesn't cut their hair because they considered their hair as a gift of their parents, so maybe Mulan dishonored their parents doing this
Something I hate is that the voice actor for that annoying guy always hating also voices Po’s Dad in Kung Fu Panda like how can someone so annoying share the same voice as the sweetest dad
react to bobs burgers songs 1: bad stuff happens in the bathroom 2: the day after judgement day song 3: bad things are bad 4: electric love 5: twinkly lights
oh one greatest Disney movies of all time MULAN is such a likeable character Mushu It's hilarious Eddie Murphy kill it and Li Shang is the best disney love interest also do do anyone really want Scoot to react Lilo & Stitch
Look, I'm not against 3D in recent Disney films. It's actually really good. It jas a lot of things that normally can't be achieved with traditional animation. It's just that there's something really beautiful about traditional animation.
I’ve seen this movie an ungodly amount of times and it just dawned on me that Shang just sent mulan home when she wasn’t up to par. Wouldn’t he have just done the same with mulans father? 🤔 she probably didn’t have to do everything she did. 😂
Actually in America if something like that were to happen and you were the only boy you would be safe because that's just how it is I don't remember the exact reason why it might do with something about having kids probably. All I know is that they can't take someone's only son for a war they wouldn't get drafted because of that.
@moonspirit469 When I say kid, I was probably like 12 or something. If you're curious about the first time I proper remember hearing about the concept of someone being trans, it was in the second Magnus Chase book. I'm sure I'd heard of people being trans before that, but I just remember the book particularly well. It has a genderfluid character, and that was my first time hearing the concept that someone could be something aside from the typical binary concepts of gender
Who is that girl I seeee? Hi. Also can we get Empires strikes back and Return of the jedi for Christmas? 37:55 Disney movies: Sleeping Beauty Beauty and the Beast Aladdin
Those are Magnolia flowers, not cherry blossoms (magnolia's are a LOT bigger, our neighbour has a magnolia tree, the flowers are so pretty when it blooms in the spring). Real question tho, WHY is the movie so washed out and desaturated? I know for a fact it is more vibrant than this.
fun fact: after "a girl worth fighting for" ends and they see the village, not only are there no more songs after that (which represents the way they now take this war seriously) the girl with the doll represents the real 'girl worth fighting for', the kids who are losing their lives to the huns.
Ohhh damn the girl worth fighting for thing is so smart!! I never noticed that
Oh wow, I watched it in french as a kid and that was lost in translation :0
mulan putting her hair into a bun is like hanna montana taking off her wig 😭
LMAOOO
More like putting it on

Wut I thought Shan Yu was the love interest not the Mongolian?
@@lafatte24you’re thinking of Shang Li lol
To any TransMasc or Transmen in the comments that have watched this film before,
congrats Shang successfully made a Man out of you
Crazy statement 😭
@@miss_holly_queen7717 factual tho XD
I feel severely called out

Scoot you'd be surprised how well a man bun can help a person pass. {speaking from experience}

This movie holds up crazy well.
you need to start the cinderella saga! cinderella 3 is probably one of disney’s best classic movies imo
Cinderella 3 is goated
It's funny
Yooooo so true
Cinderella 3 is genuinely such a fun movie
YOOO WE FINALLY GOT MULAN
Fun fact: This movie is based on an ancient Chinese folktale.
*Honestly, as much as I love how sassy Mulan's grandma is, my favorite part of the movie is Yao roasting Chi-Fu in the song "A Girl Worth Fighting For".*
*Chi-Fu: 🎶I've a girl back home who's unlike any other🎶*
*Yao: 🎶Yeah, the only girl who'd love him is his mother 🎶*
*Just the look on his face ALONE is priceless.*
😆😆🤣🤣
You should consider reacting to "The Iron Giant." I mean it doesn't have songs in it, but the background music and story are iconic!
MULAN HAS TO BE ONE OF MY FAVS!!! SO GLAD YOU ENJOYED IT!
B.D. Wong voiced Lee Shang, but the "Make a Man Out of You" song was sung by Donny Osmond! I got to see him in concert a few months ago; one of the best things I've done this year. He's nearing 70 and can still sing his A off!
“Reflection” makes me so emotional, its such a good song
Fun fact, in a Swedish ad for this movie when the soldier said “who are you?” Mushu answered, “what do you think? Batman?”
7:40 On the men being drafted into war, you should watch Saving Private Ryan - its been years since I seen it so I could be wrong but I think the plot revolves around the last or only son being drafted!
How you gonna be scared of getting drafted and still join the military 😭😭
I loved this movie, and I honestly find it fun, I find it has a lot of good songs, it has good humor and laughter, I enjoyed this movie. Plus, you can't go wrong with Eddie's voice acting in this one and that just made it funny and great.
I don't really have a "favorite" princess, but Mulan would be a contender
My favorite is Cinderella and Ariel 100%
Make a man out of you is a truly classic and good song in this movie.
Mulan will always be my favourite ❤️🩹
My family and I are singing the songs we go crazy with man out of you
Gotta say I love how many trans scoot subscribers there are, based on this comment section
The Hunchback of Notre dame next plsss
Yes.
MULAN HAS TO BE IN EVERYONES TOP 5 orrrrr
2:48 excuse me sir? 😭😭
Woo definitely one of my favorite Disney movies!
“That horse thic, damn” -scoot 2024
Beauty and the Beast next!
34:45 OK just imagine you are in the crowd and a coarpse ofａgiant person just came down and it probably stinks down there
you should for sure watch Mulan 2! Mushu sells so much in that
Wait how do I not know that there is a sequel!!
@@kuzwayoandile00 It's very unknown but really good!
@@kuzwayoandile00 Like most Disney sequels it's not great (imo) so that's probably why it's not well known. It can still be a fun watch though
it IS like Clark… while she’s not as good about it she does carry herself differently in boy mode… and you said it yourself it does change her face a bit… and that’s for the people (men) who actually look twice at her in girl mode
28:27: CHAT is crazy. 😂
YAY MULAN IS HERE!!! It’s my all time favourite movie
9:22 I saw this on another reaction channel watching this movie and one of the reactors is Chinese and this part upset him, because according to him, the warriors doesn't cut their hair because they considered their hair as a gift of their parents, so maybe Mulan dishonored their parents doing this
Even though I was there watching the beginning out of context is still funny! 💀
1:55 I love how you brought up KH2
Lea Salonga, Mulan's singing voice, is also in Centaurworld
Something I hate is that the voice actor for that annoying guy always hating also voices Po’s Dad in Kung Fu Panda like how can someone so annoying share the same voice as the sweetest dad
react to bobs burgers songs
1: bad stuff happens in the bathroom
2: the day after judgement day song
3: bad things are bad
4: electric love
5: twinkly lights
2:00 speaking of Kung fu Panda, can you watch the sequels they are so much better than the first
thanks for reacting
Literally one of the best Disney movies and princesses!
You can not top these songs 😂
Though shes not an actual princess,
Mulan is t h a t girl
oh one greatest Disney movies of all time MULAN is such a likeable character Mushu It's hilarious Eddie Murphy kill it and Li Shang is the best disney love interest also do do anyone really want Scoot to react Lilo & Stitch
yess lilo and stitch is so funny
Woah woah woah not the greatest that would be lion king based on what I remember
@@bituinl i sad one of the best not that best
You should watch Aladdin (1992) as the singing voice of Mulan Lea Salonga also voice Jasmine
you NEED to watch cinderella 3!!!
Yayyy I love Mulan!!! & Scoot's reactions! 🎉🎉🎉
I love learning scoot lore wym you were in the military 😭
Look, I'm not against 3D in recent Disney films. It's actually really good. It jas a lot of things that normally can't be achieved with traditional animation. It's just that there's something really beautiful about traditional animation.
YES! MULAN!
2:05: RIGHT!?
18:38: I'LL MAKE A MAN OUT OF YOU!!!
The Hunchback of Notre Dame is my favorite classic disney film,, if it can be called that, lol
You need to watch mulan 2
Ayyyyye early AND I FREAKIN LOVE MULAN
Aye me and Scoot got the same sweater 😼😼
Watch the sequel please (and keepbgirl worth fighting for in mind)
Bro you GOTTA watch Aladdin!!!
Om you have to watch the Cinderella saga, its so good!
I’ve seen this movie an ungodly amount of times and it just dawned on me that Shang just sent mulan home when she wasn’t up to par. Wouldn’t he have just done the same with mulans father? 🤔 she probably didn’t have to do everything she did. 😂
you’re not glazing mulan is definitely top 10 for disney movies let alone the songs lol
Shang looked a little too made to find out Ping(Mulan) wasn't a guy 🤨
7:15 Not really, I have a cherry tree in my front yard. It's not particularly amazing
Might be cuz you’re used to it. I get excited over trees I could see in my backyard 😂
Have you seen Meet the Robinsons ?? Underrated
Actually in America if something like that were to happen and you were the only boy you would be safe because that's just how it is I don't remember the exact reason why it might do with something about having kids probably. All I know is that they can't take someone's only son for a war they wouldn't get drafted because of that.
i just have to say, shang loved that twink, bisexual king.
I definitely prefer this Mulan to the remake.
The 'Reflection' song always had such trans vibes as a kid
How did you know what Trans was as a child (no hate btw)
@moonspirit469 When I say kid, I was probably like 12 or something.
If you're curious about the first time I proper remember hearing about the concept of someone being trans, it was in the second Magnus Chase book.

4:39 it’s just Chinese culture
You should which mulan 2
Who is that girl I seeee?
Hi.
Also can we get Empires strikes back and Return of the jedi for Christmas?
37:55 Disney movies:
Sleeping Beauty
Beauty and the Beast
Aladdin
Can you also watch mulan 2
plz react to mulan 2 next plz
You should watch mulan 2 ! It’s one of the few Disney movie sequels that is actually good, I honestly think it’s better than the first!
NO shot its better than the first. Its a middle grounder at best. Top tier sequels are Cinderella III and Lion King II.
@ I’m sorry? Have you seen Disney sequels? I totally agree that those two you mentioned are good but that doesn’t make mulan 2 any less
React to Oliver and Company
you should react to the live action and copare and rate the 2
This movie is a queer icon
Chat i may be getting mlp withdrawals
SCOOT FINISH SHERA
Hold up scoot used to be in the military???okkkk I'm finna get out soon cause I don't want uncle same to take my cheeks🤪
More mlp plsssss 🙏🙏🙏
If you like Mushu, do not watch Mulan 2. You'll learn what "Character Assassination" means if you watch it :/
Watch Tarzan plz!!!!
Scoot have you seen Cats Don't Dance or any pokemon movies
❤❤❤❤
Can you watch Pocahontas?
Those are Magnolia flowers, not cherry blossoms (magnolia's are a LOT bigger, our neighbour has a magnolia tree, the flowers are so pretty when it blooms in the spring).
Real question tho, WHY is the movie so washed out and desaturated? I know for a fact it is more vibrant than this.
Dude, if u put your hair in a bun and took off your glasses you could have a second YT-account 🤪
Shang when his twink soldier was a girl the whole time😡😡
You should give the live action a watch it’s really good too!!
First
Watch Treasure Planet, super underrated
