- So between the beer bug and political fallout, it seems Mulan is shaping up to be one of the biggest bombs in cinematic history. Let's take a look and see if it deserves all the hate it's getting.

Unfortunately, as a woman, I see your points. These Mary Sue's are getting out of hand. I want a flawed female character who is allowed to fail sometimes. 90s heroines were the best. :(
The animated movie with a talking dragon and ghosts is more realistic than the live action remake.
They seriously took out the parts where she has to work hard to improve herself? That's like the entire point of the story...
The worst thing is that in Chinese stories, nobody is born knowing how to use chi. In every freaking Chinese stories, no exception, the characters have to train to attain a certain level of chi. The Disney version of chi is like the Disney version of the Force, which is women with chi/force can use it from the get go without any work or training. That's the 3rd wave feminist chi/force.
I honestly hate when they take a “you can do it” story and turn it into a “born special” story that thinks it is empowering.
My daughter was super excited to see this movie, she ‘liked it’ promptly forgot about it and watched the original. Pretty impressive when an 8 year old can’t even get behind your movie
I literally turned this movie off within the first 5 minutes and decided to just watch the original.
“Crouching Tiger, Hidden Agenda”
That awkward moment when the version with the talking dragon is the more realistic version.

Remember the time when Luke Skywalker tried to face Vader unprepared and untrained and lost an arm and was scarred emotionally? Those were good times
Old Mulan's message: You can be better than others, if you try hard and don't give up.
"Just because people start out better than you, doesn't mean it has to end that way."
"Why?" "Don't know" is the cornerstone of blockbusters these days.
"If you have a little girl, have her watch Aliens."
Original Themes: Honour, family, friendship, respect, struggle, perseverance.
There's a reason Kung Fu Panda, a movie set in ancient China for no reason other than because it makes for a good setting that fits the martial arts theme, was more successful in China than the new Mulan, a movie made specifically for Chinese audiences.
I actually thought 2D Mulan was pretty smart: using weights to help scale the pole, maximizing damage through inducing an avalanche, the ending fight where she disarmed Shan Yu with a fan and blew him up with fireworks, etc...
Animated Mulan: self-made woman
Just to mess with Disney we should accuse this movie of being racist for having no black people in it.
