Mulan (Pre-release)

[dascoyne]

I think this looks magnificent.
I always felt the core of the 1998 animated film was diluted by the obligatory Disney tropes, like the animal sidekicks and musical numbers. Thank goodness there's no CGI cringe-Mushu. And they don't need to dwell too long on social commentary about breaking gender stereotypes. I just want this film to be about the strength of her character and will and about her love and devotion to her family.

I was floored by this teaser.

It looks like Mulan is going to be a straight up badass...and that’s simply awesome!

 

[Tremas]

I've very little interest in seeing a good deal of the 'live action' remakes, but this one interests me quite a bit.

 

[Axlotl]

Looks amazing. I hope the movie lives up to it's trailer.

 

[Potroclo]

I hope there's some szechuan sauce in it.

 

[firesprite]

I think this looks absolutely fabulous. I'm definitely looking forward to it.

 

[dascoyne]

So far this film could be so perfect. I don't know if it's asking too much but I hope there's no love interest.

I feel the same way.

This one and the Hunchback are the only live action remakes I'm interested in seeing.

A while go I saw a live action version of Mulan at Walmart. It was a Chinese production, not Disney. Did anyone see that?

 

[Lord Boron]

I've had zero interest in the Live action remakes, but I'm really looking forward to this. Looks great.

 

[gedmac66]

WOW ! Looking like a pretty faithful adaptation of the animated film without CGI characters ( at least going by that trailer ), and it’ll be cool to see when released ..., but where’s ‘granny’ !?

 

[dascoyne]

If Disney wants to appeal to the Chinese audience they will understand that Mulan isn’t motivated by self-interest (e.g. trying to prove her worth) but by devotion to her family.

 

[Treadwell]

Good to see Rosalind Chao.

 

[MangyDog]

Good to see Rosalind Chao.

Haha the moment I heard her voice I was like, omg that's kaiko

Yeah I was the same... I'm not a fan of these remakes. But genuinely that teaser impressed me... Looked more like a straight up movie than a Disney film...

I'll be keeping an eye on this

 

[Psab keel]

I was never a fan of the animated film. I enjoy the Disney animated films, but Mulan never grabbed me. Though I have to admit that this trailer looks promising. I would see it. It looks worlds better than the live action Aladdin remake.

 

[StevenBills]

Looks good. I REALLY wanted this to be shot by Christopher Doyle, though. Missed opportunity there. Oh well.

So far this film could be so perfect. I don't know if it's asking too much but I hope there's no love interest.

From what I've read, this movie is going to be based more on the original myth/legend rather than the animated movie.

 

[dascoyne]

I'm liking the latest trailer.

My older daughter is very pretty and a total tomboy. I know she would absolutely do the same, which is why the trailer is making me cry just a little bit.

 

[Halliwax]

I’m really excited for this. I have a asian friend I use to work with, she looks exactly like mulan from the cartoon so that’s what we all called her.

Her and I would sing the song together

“Let’s get down to business!! And defeat!! The hun!!!”

“Did they send me daughters, instead... of sons!!”

Haven’t heard from her in a long time, when this trailer aired I got a text, gonna go watch it with all my old co-workers. Think I’m gonna make a cheap cosplay for her

 

[George]

I liked the trailer and would definitely go see this.
My only objection is that the movie is spoken in english while it takes place in China.The chosen language feels like a concession for the sake of wider audience.I personally prefer chinese with english subtitles.Other than that: huge fan of asian movies.
