Looks fuckin sweet to me

Also, shouldnt these big changes make you like this remake more than the others, TC, since its nothing like the other remakes at all?

This is more of a re-imagining, if anything. BatB and Aladdin were carbon copy remakes

Strip the fantasy elements out of Mulan, and you've still got a pretty solid story, without having to worry about making those fantasy elements not look out of place. I can understand the decision.

Eh... Guess I'll skip it. I like the animated film, but this seems like a different movie. It'll probably be an ok movie. But won't really feel like Disney's Mulan. More like the actual story or whatever. Which is good for people who want to see that. But I would have appreciated an actual live-action remake of Disney's Mulan...

I would guess because it's harder to choreograph live-action movies to songs than animated ones, particularly when said songs were written alongside an animated movie. Live-action Aladdin ran into that problem on multiple occasions, with the on-screen action during songs often seeming awkward when it didn't match what was happening in the original, and a couple of points where they actually sped up the video footage to make it match better (which just looked weird). I can understand them eschewing the songs altogether, rather than going through the hassle of trying to get the action to match the music or risking the oddities seen in Aladdin.

I'm still so disappointed there's no songs.
Mulan is one of my favorites.

The movie looks alright, but I'm sad.

Disney: Hires a singer to play the lead.

Also Disney: Takes out all the songs.

I mean look up the legend of hua mulan. It sounds badass and can easily be a story without the dope ass songs.

I guess my thing is if they truly do stick to that myth and not just rework the cartoon without the shit that made it great I'd be optimistic.

I just really like that song. I understand if they want to make a story about the real myth. Its just not what Im looking for. I wanted a live action remake. Not a different movie based off the real myth. That movie sounds interesting in its own way, though...

Well, I hate them because they're lazy cash grabs (that work) and I don't consider live action a higher art or more entertaining than animation, so to me they're a waste of time.

That, I'm guessing, is because Mulan's story really doesn't need a love interest. It does, however, need a commander for Mulan's unit (at least the way Disney told it last time), so I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens in that regard.

I thought I read somewhere that the roll was being split, but maybe I just dreamt it up. As far as I understand there will be a commander and a love interest but they wont be the same person and neither will be Shang.

Not really needing a love interest has never stopped Disney before >_>
