Mulan has been released on Disney Plus and has been HEAVILY criticised as being one of the worst Live Action Disney Remakes.
So to get to the bottom of this, I am making a versus battle between the two movies. Its Mulan vs Mulan. Which film did a superior job and which movie brought dishonour to this beloved character. The Disney animated movie, or the Disney live action remake.
Watch and find out as we are about to compare the new live action Mulan (2020) with the original animated Mulan (1998).

Yeah that’s what I loathe about all of the new Disney films with their forced women empowerment Messages (I love women being treated as equals, being one myself) all they do is talk down to women and treat them as less. Like oh you cannot be an amazing warrior as a woman. EEEEWWWW GIRLLLSSS but if you have super powers then I suppose it’s okay, but also you have to be single faceted and bland as hell. Literally all of the live action Disney movies

There are a lot of versions of Mulan in Chinese media, and some are really good (for example Hua Mulan 2009.), all taking their own understanding on the original ballad. What Disney gets wrong is that they try to redo their original work, but WOKE!, thus draining any and all personality out of their characters, and killing the heart of their stories.

One of the things I love about the cartoon version of Mulan is that she gets to defeat the villain with using both her feminity- she and her 3 friends wooing the villain's guards dressed like beautiful women and, using her fan to swipe away his sword. And she gets to kick butt using her martial arts she's learned in the army. I believe that was a fantastic way to show that you can use both things that were deemed only female and male at the time and show that they both complement each other. P. S. Mulan having her long hair down, despite it being woman powered, I'm surprised it didn't get caught on something. I did learn that at Mulan's time period, men would tie their long hair up. Maybe she could have wrapped it up.

Even more, what I hate the most about the 2020 version of Mulan is that they decided to remove the most important philosophical value contained in the animated movie, that is the philosophy of late blooming flowers that will bloom more beautifully than others. That philosophy summarizes the essence of Mulan's story in disguising herself as a soldier, not to give up in despair when you do the right thing. And I hate their decision to add a sister for her instead of her grandma. When we see closely, Grandma Fa has more important role for Mulan's character growth than a sister. In the animated movie, when the palace's guards arrive to announce the announcement, her mom tell her to stay inside but her grandma asks her to watch from their fence wall, it clears to me that her grandma wants her to be strong, educated, and empowered at the level she could and as far as she knows. In the live-action, her sister does nothing but being amazed by her, and gives no contribution whatsoever in Mulan's character growth.

In animated films such as Mulan 1998, the filmmakers have a limited amount of time and money to tell their story. That's a strong motivation to pack in as much story telling in as little time as possible. Disney and others have learned this and did it well many times. The makers of THIS film are spoiled, knowing that their budget is huge and they got all the time in the world.

I’m honestly sick of seeing these worthless Mary-sue’s that keep popping up. I haven’t seen the original Milan, but the way you described it Eric, the main character definitely sounds like one you can root for, while the live action version is just nearly OP. Note: One example of another great female character in media (that isn’t a Mary-sue) is Undyne from Undertale. She’s a very tough character, and has a likeable personality (that is later on, when she’s not trying to kill you).

Diamond-Lock Productions I cannot recommend Mulan 1998 enough. Mulan is my favourite Disney Princess. Her dedication to family brings me to tears every time. She took her father’s conscription papers, a promise of death and destruction, and leaves behind her flower comb, a symbol of gentleness, rebirth and peace. Mulan’s actions resonated with me so much as a child that now, at age 20, she remains as my favourite princess.

Agreed with idkwhattocallmeself - Mulan 1998 is one of the very best, funniest, most moving Disney films of all time. Must watch! It has a great character arc - and not just for Mulan, who has that inspired training sequence, and proves herself again and again, after initial struggles - but many of the other soldiers alongside her also face struggles. The stakes always feel high and motivations are clear. Plus: Mushu is hysterical I'm going to say something taboo and say I miiiiiiiiight like him slighlty more than Aladdin's Genie (!!), even though Brooklyn voiced Eddie Murphy is ever so slightly anachronistic. Still: he's HILARIOUS and I love how they animate him! Highlyg recommend.

I've written powerful characters of both sexes. But the unstoppable ones are always done for a reason, it's not their challenge. The challenge is not using it for dark purposes. It's meant to show we all at times have power over others, and we can get addicted, or worse, if abused or traumatized, it can become uncontrolled, we become or risk becoming what we fear. I'm still unpublished so can't give details, but I think it is all about presentation. One Punch Man is OP, but that's the problem. That's the running joke and bane of his existence. Framing is everything and it's easy to tell power tripping, childish stories from the real thing. Rey was an insult to any real woman as she was so inhuman but lacked any real trial or solid, earned ideals. It was all superficial imo. Wonder Woman, Captain America, Superman, Buffy, all having gifts but also being grounded and not always winning right away, it's still earned, they still suffer in human, awful ways, there's still real bravery. And frankly the problems feel earned and natural as well.

It always felt to me as if Mulan - in the animated version - took her fathers place to safe him, assuming he wouldn't survive a war with his leg injury and age. She loves her father so much she rather risks her own life than risk loosing her dad. Also: even Mulan's horse Khan has more character than any character in the remake. In the remake it feels more like Mulan goes to the army as an act of defiance. Because she doesn't want to be put in her place, she is a rebell and a strong independend women. This completely ruins her character! Turning an act of love, heroism and selflessness into something out of spite, wounded pride and selfishness.

"one." that exchange still gives me chills, it really showcased just how cold these guys were, without hesitation the bowman draws and you don't see what happens next but you don't need to. he might not be a malificent or a scar but shan yu was right up there with villains that scared baby me and are now some of my favourites in disney's line-up. not to mention he cuts a very intimidating silhouette

They hate on Barbie who represented women in all kinds of jobs (police, astronaut, doctor...), badass comic and videogame characters who worked their way into becoming badass and still on wholesome anime characters. They just hate that they are ugly and useless and don't want to work their way up. This is why all female protagonists excpet a few nowadays get everything handed to them. becuase that is what the mayority of women want (unfortunatly).

BlackCroft666LP i mean i’d have to respectfully disagree, i’ve seen so many women complain about mulan 2020 having an unrealistic main character. personally i blame the companies behind these movies more than anything because they’re the ones who think that women want these kinds of protagonists when that’s not true, and they manage to influence a lot of people into thinking that this is what women want as well. nobody who watched the original mulan cartoon or read the ballad of mulan would ever appreciate what they did to mulan in this remake, regardless of gender.

​@@BlackCroft666 So far, every "feminist" commentary I've seen are all extremely critical about the remake because of its mary sue-ness, being "better than men" b/c I have superpowers attitude, & lack of realistic character flaws (b/c oh no, we can't make our female character weak! Which ends up counterproductive b/c then the writers end up implying that women are only valued if they don't show any weakness or outperform men lol whoops) My friends and I abhorred Mulan 2020 - all of us would consider ourselves to be feminists. The bigger problem, like @Hello There says too, is that a lot of screenwriters/big companies like Disney are pandering/lazy so they can't write compelling female characters - so they just put a paint of "girl boss" and think that'll be enough to please female audiences. Which is honestly insulting lol. Linsdey Ellis has a brilliant video essay on the absurdity of "Woke Disney" that highlights companies & their desire to promote "progressive" twists & failing horribly because they lack the understanding of what they're trying to relate/cater to - so the result is shit movies that please no one &also don't even promote anything of true value.

Why do people think a strong woman doesn’t show emotion and shuns all things feminine? Strong people deal with hardships and overcome very difficult emotions and shortcomings. A strong person cries, gets hurt, wants to give up, feels like they can’t push any farther. When they overcome those obstacles, that’s when you see their true character. You want to know who someone really is? How do they react when everything goes wrong.

It's because they still believe that only traits considered masculine can make someone strong. Men are expected to be strong by having no emotions and being physically strong. Ergo, a strong female must shun femininity and encompass the traits that are considered strong by masculine terms. It's so stupid and completely defeats the point.

I liked how the original made her still feminine. In the live action they made her start out athletic, but one of the things I liked about the original was how it taught you to persevere even when it’s hard. That’s why I liked how Mulan didn’t start out athletic in the original they made it so she had to work for what she wanted. And she still embraced being girly at the same time as being headstrong and clever. They just didn’t really send that message in the live action.

I always go to Eric when it comes to these shitty Disney live action remakes. No matter how many times they fail, they refuse to improve. I'm not gonna lie, when Eric when in depth on what made the original Mulan so good & memorable, I almost felt like I was about to burst into tears. No, I'm serious. I was reminded on how good the original film was when I saw it as a child. And how powerful it is. These "animated characters" felt real to us. And we understood their emotions. But in this "live action" film with "real" actors, there's NOTHING to feel. Yes, the previous live action remakes are trash, especially The Lion King. But at least we know they're shitty remakes of their more successful counterparts. But here, as Eric said, if this movie wasn't called "Mulan," you would have no freaking idea what this movie was trying to be. Like they always say, "Remember The Original."

17:50 They gave Mulan a sister, because they wanted to make this movie based on the original Ballad of Mulan. In the original Ballad, Mulan has a sister. So, Disney decided to just throw in a sister, with zero personalities, of course, other than having arachnophobia (fear of spiders). Also, this film 'threw in' a line from the original Ballad of Mulan where the character of Mulan says, "I can't tell the two rabbits apart when I was riding in the field," in the opening scenes. Whereas it goes like, "But when the two rabbits run side by side, How can you tell the female from the male?" This line is so empowering at the ending of Ballad, but Disney butchered it completely, like they did the animated film with this Live-action 'REMAKE'. I am not against Live-action remakes. I liked Aladdin and Beauty & the Beast, (no offense to anyone who hates them :O), because after I finished watching them, I got a sense of fulfillment, a satisfaction, a lot of nostalgic happiness bubbling around in hearing the end title. But, I was like, "WOAH. Is the movie already done? Where was the content dude!?" after I finished watching this 'REMAKE!!!!' Nevertheless, I just subscribed to your channel. Great editing. And astounding voice-over. Good luck for 100k subs :)

In the ballad, Mulan had a younger brother (who is as much as a side character as the sister) too. But I guess Disney can only see what they want to see, I guess. The rabbit scene in the 2020 movie pissed me off. In the original, it implied that "Man and woman had difference, but when a man and a woman run together, they're just the same (they're equal)" In 2020 movie Mulan basically said that amn and woman will not be on par.

Honestly, Mulan is one of my favorite Disney movies to watch (aside from Aladdin), and I was excited when I heard that it was getting a live action remake since I grew up with Disney. (I'm turning 16 in June, and I still love Disney, since it's my main obsession) When I heard bad things about this movie (example: no songs, no Mushu, Mulan doesn't cut her hair, etc), I wasn't excited anymore, but was intrigued since it was gonna be more like the original story of Mulan. I watched it at home, and I didn't like the fact that she had the ability to use chi, because she had to struggle to become a great warrior in the animated movie without a superpower. Also, I was kinda sad that Mushu wasn't gonna be in the movie, because he's my 2nd favorite character in the movie. There are only 2 things I loved about this movie: 1: Ming-Na Wen's cameo near of the movie (She's the original voice of Mulan in the animation), and 2: During the action scenes, and the cameo scene, an instrumental version of the song Reflection was playing, which is one of my favorite songs in the movie aside from I'll make a man outta you. When I first watched the live action film, I thought it was good, but after watching it a few more times, I changed my opinion. Of course the animated Mulan is better, and will always be remembered as a classic and one of my favorite Disney movies of all time.

And in the live action poster, her "male" disguise half only has the helmet showing but the hair on that side is out when it should be up. The cartoon poster clearly show her female side and more of her male side. There's no balance in the live action which makes you wonder why even bother putting the helmet on if you're going to barely show the other duality.

So having a warlord as the face of that conflict -- terrifying, bloodthirsty, and almost inhuman because you know nothing about him as a person -- made perfect sense.

Disney are sick. And I hope people see them for the scum bag and hypocritical company they really are.

Mulan is my favorite classic Disney movie, but even though I should've been looking forward to seeing what they do with the remake, the criticisms that their other live-action remakes get just made me concerned, so I had low expectations. And it STILL disappointed me. It's so different from the original animated movie that it honestly felt to me like it was a movie from a different studio that was trying to imitate the original, but didn't catch what made it so special. Most of the side characters were excluded, the villains were different, the title character was the feminist version of empowered (as I feared would happen), and the emotional moments of the film were poorly recreated. I remember the 1998 film from my childhood and I always will, but the remake was so frickin' boring. Also, the original film was based off of the Hua Mulan legend, but, apparently, the remake was supposed to be EVEN MORE based off of that legend. Maybe that's why it feels so different from the animated film, but I could be wrong. Anyways, this was a great video, and I loved it. Keep up the good work. :)

I like this review, except calling out some of it's problems due to being 'feminist' isn't really true. I get what you're going for - it's taking PC-obsessed fake Wokeness to the max. I HATE the new Star Wars Trilogy and didn't even bother with Captain Marvel because of how one-note and overpowered (and thus, unrelatable) those characters are. And I say all this as a feminist woman - who values good storytelling. You can have feminist stories that have actual screenwriting talent behind them - like the original Mulan. THAT is a feminist story, because she's a living, breathing human being who shows her worth through her heart, her natural problem solving ability and resourcefulness, and proves herself in a world that underestimated a woman's potential. But films like these are stupid because they're pandering to the "idea" of feminism - it's not the real thing, and thus, they don't write relatable people we care about.

While you’re free to think and believe what you will I think you really need to re-examine the word “feminist.” Its a term synonymous with mandating and “woman power must be strongest with no flaws!” That means writing off: Sara Connor Ellen Ripley A plethora of anime and slasher film protagonists Lara Croft Zelda Samus (Metroid) And even the 98 Mulan. Feminism is not about equaling the sexes but misandry and the like. And no. That is not the minority of modern feminists thats the majority. It’s akin to BLM and antifa. Disguised Marxism with a happier sounding name.

@@Jim87_36 uhhhh, that’s not what feminism is at all, or BLM for that matter, it’s more you know, telling minorities that they deserve rights the same as any male straight white dude. The people who really think that women deserve more rights then anyone else is a loud minority, I suggest you look into what the feminist movement is before making a borderline sexist comment, just saying

Brilliant commentary. I roll my eyes at all the crap they did with this new version and I'm glad that it's bombing. I think even without covid as an excuse (and you know they're going to do that) it would still bomb and rightfully so. And what the director said at the end. Oh GOD, I think I pulled a muscle rolling my eyes.

Thanks buddy. Yeah, she says a lot of things in interviews that don't make sense. She even talks about Mulan "NOT" being a superhero even though she clearly IS in this version due to the abilities that her Chi gives her.

I knew this was coming for the Original vs the Remakes. We all know that the Original Disney movies were a thousand times better than the Disney remakes because Disney doesn’t really care about their property. Great video Eric and I agree everything you said in this video and I absolutely Hated Disney. Disney really went down hill with their property. First the Disney Channel crappy Movies, the Disney Remakes, Frozen II and now this... If anything, I would definitely avoid Disney for the rest of my life.

25:00 thank you for saying this! I can’t understand how the same company that made the originals can make such terrible and soulless remakes. I can still watch the original Mulan and feel inspired and entertained, this remake barely kept me awake

Thank you for making this comparison. It's genuinely sad how out of touch Disney is with their beloved movies. It's as if they intentionally took everything that made the original so amazing and threw it all away in order to appeal to... Feminists..? I guess? Sheesh.

Hey it’s Yao King of the Rock to you!!! 😆😆😆😆 But great video though also I will say even though Shan Yu isn’t one of the most fleshed out Disney villains but he’s one of the ones that I love the most because he is what he is, which is a ruthless general bent on showing his strength, but he does it soooo well that I can’t just not love him. Plus he has some of the most brutal moments.

Hey Eric, if you want to give yourself a break, you should compare some of the better live-action remakes, like The Jungle Book, Cinderella, and Pete’s Dragon, to the originals.

Disney's idea of making a perfect female protagonist in every way is so genius and disrespectful. It teaches that women shouldn't be concern about any mistakes, cause everything is gonna work out for them. It doesn't teach them to learn from your mistakes, work hard, and get stronger from that. This is why Mulan 1998 is gonna be a timeless classic and this movie will not.

OG Mulan's hero journey: She uses her wits and the skills she has to accomplish the tasks that she otherwise couldn't do to keep up with and in some cases surpass the men and ultimately save the day. Remake Mulan's hero journey: She decides to stop not being awesome like she was all along.
