We watched it online last night streamed to TV...decent movie, wife liked more than I did. I can see the controversies but they’re in everything you watch.

I enjoyed the original too much to bother with this one...especially without MUSHU!

I wonder why they didn’t have Mulan played by a black actress, like they are doing with the Little Mermaid. Hmmm.

$30? I’d balk at $3.

Northeast Asians are counted as white when it comes to educational and employment opportunities. They become nonwhite when it comes to political matters like building minority coalitions against white conservatives.

I’ve got Disney+ for the good, older films and cartoons.

I shall avoid the Wuhan Mulan film, like the plague. The toon version years ago was a drag, anyway.

Come on! We can't have red headed, white, blue eyed Little Mermaid in 2020!

She has to be a black woman who spends a lot of money on hair weaves.

When Disney puts Song Of The South back out in theaters then they will be relevant to me again.

(Unless there is another Pirates movie.)

I quit caring about Disney at least a decade ago if not more.

Pay $30 bucks to see a movie, and an hour later you want to watch it again.

So that we may see who is the expert ...

This is an excerpt from blog post she made in 2014, I find it impressive.

I recently became a U.S. Citizen. Among all the rights, voting right is the one I cherished a great deal. The same weekend after I became a US citizen, I joined several women to work around a neighborhood and educate voters about the upcoming school board election. At one sidewalk, we encountered a grandma, a young mother and her baby daughter in a stroller, a small family of 3 generations. I asked them if they had voted yet. Both the grandma and the young mother shook their heads. They both said “We don’t vote” and waved their hands as if to get rid of a fly. “But why?” I didn’t understand and I wasn’t going to give up. The young mother just shrugged her shoulders and explained “I don’t like any politicians.” At this moment, I felt that I had to say something “I can understand that you don’t like them. But if you don’t vote, you basically allow bunch of guys you dislike to continue to make decisions you don’t like which will impact your and your baby’s lives. “She didn’t say anything. I handed her some literature about the recall and said “You know, I came from China and I was never given the opportunity to vote for any officials or representatives. It is such a privilege to be able to vote and to get your voice heard. No matter how you feel about the recall, please vote.” She and her mother agreed to read the literature and think about it.

Even though the Dalai Lama has chosen not to discuss or promote the movie, it wasn't but 20 years ago that Hollywood regularly protested the destruction of Tibet by Red China.

And now you can't find a "Free Tibet" bumper sticker anywhere in LA.

The thirteenth Dalai Lama passed away in 1933. In 1935, the Regent of Tibet had a vision to guide the search for the next incarnation of the spiritual leader of Tibet. In 1937, that incarnation was found in the person of a two-year-old child, Tenzin Gyatso.

Kundun (1997) is a portrait of the early life of the boy recognized as the fourteenth reincarnation of the Dalai Lama, from his discovery at the age of two by a Lama in the guise of a servant, through the invasion of Tibet by Communist China in 1950, to his flight to India and exile from his homeland in 1959 at the age of 24. The title of the film, which comes from the honorific title of the Dalai Lama, means The Presence, as in the presence of the Buddha.

Well, Chinese audiences won't pay to see a dark skinned actress.

So no blacks - unless very light skinned. Even Eddie Murphy was only used as a voice actor.

Is Hollywood and Disney guilty of hypocrisy?

Well duh!!

The WSJ print edition had a most likable photo or the girl and her horse. If it becomes free or very inexpensive, I want to see it. The photo made me do it.
