Hopefully they just get Eddie Murphy to reprise his voice role.

Should be decent. I enjoyed Beauty and the Beast and Jungle Book.
They seem to have improved the live action versions alot since crap that was Maleficent.

Especially, since Maleficent was all about working with the devil and all. |

Funny .. Mulan is not really considered one of the great Disney animated movies.
But it will probably make all the money with the ever growing Chinese market. So it’s obvious why they are making this film.

I don't really know why but something about the idea of a live action Mulan just screams total disaster to me.
Like it might well be really good - they are working from some very solid but flawed source material that could probably benefit from a second go and it doesn't seem like it'd be the hardest or most expensive to adapt for live action compared to some of the stuff they could be doing - but I dunno, there's just something about the concept that screams, "Bad idea!" to me.

I still am really curious to what the point of all this is.
I am not denying that the Disney Live Action film might be good movies and everything.
I just do not understand why we need live action adaptations of awesome animated movies.

Also.. remember Disney made The Hunchback of Notre Dame a few years after the opening of Euro Disneyland in France. I remember that Euro Disney did not get a lot of people in when it opened so maybe Disney though a movie set in France will help get people to the park. Yeah Beauty & The Beast had a french setting but that came out before Euro Disney opened and it was pretty ambiguous where the film was set.
Disney has recently opened a Disneyland in Shanghai... and I’m hearing they are competing with another large theme park in the city. Also there is a Disneyland in Hong Kong also competing with Ocean Park a large theme park/zoo in the city.
Disney must be hoping that Mulan will get more people into those parks.

The most famous song from Beauty in the Beast contains both the Eiffel Tower and the line "After all, miss, this is France" It wasn't that ambiguous it was supposed to take place in France. |

So long as it's a million miles removed from that awful leaked spec script revolving around a previously nonexistent white love interest, this should hopefully be good. It's one of the better films from the middle of the Disney Renaissance and there's a ton of nostalgia for it, so if they do it right it could hold up pretty well.
(Also are people still harping on the fact that Disney decided to do a one off AU project and try something new with an old property?)
