As an ethnic Chinese person I have to say the new Mulan is god awful at depicting Chinese things. It’s a testament to how you can put all the “ethnic” faces you want on screen; if the main crew is white it’ll still show.

yeeeeah - Xiran pointed out it seemed like they tried to make Mulan into Chinese Elsa, and good god did no one take five seconds to make sure the match-making make up look halfway decent?

Barudak posted:Let the record show I came out of Beauty and the Beast and Lion King calling them trash. I wonder if that's what people are trying to articulate when they say stuff like "Rey is a Mary Sue." Because undoubtedly she struggled! But a lot of that struggle was in her background, before the movie, so it falls into the "you are the special, talented protagonist" hole.

I think this goes back to the original where the makeup is supposed to seem super out of place and over the top on Mulan, but in the cartoon its more a metaphor for how she has no interest in the ceremony. In live action it just looks like they made it purposefully garish.

Yeah, if you're going to make a movie set in China, maybe get some people who are Chinese and know things about Chinese culture to help write/direct it?

I really really hope either through kickstarter or through Adult Swim having some kindness in their heart that they can pull together a movie to wrap things up.

Honestly I'm surprised Venture Bros managed to still be around this long, it's been airing since the early days of Adult swim.

17 years is an incredible run. I wonder what their production process was like vs other shows that made it only possible to do 7 seasons over that length of time. Is it all written by a couple of guys and they just take all the time they need?

Unless they’re as strong as a man that is.

RE: Mulan a bunch of scenes were filmed in Xinjiang and the credits explicitly thanks the staff of the Uighur concentration camps which sure is a hell of a look on top of the pro-HK police statements by Liu YiFei and Donnie Yen

The Season 4 finale really stood out and was potentially going to be an ending when it initially aired. But they cancelled on a season with a cliffhanger.

Pick posted:Every time one of the live action ones comes out people give it lukewarm but positive reviews, until like a year later when we all admit it was loving garbage I still think Aladdin was 'alright.' But I can never picture a scenario in my head where I would be watching the live action one instead of the original, if given the choice.

I had a thought the other day With movie sets being danger zones right now (fuckin Robert Pattinson got diagnosed with covid 3 days after they resumed filming The Batman) is now the perfect time for Peter Jackson and Steven Spielberg to finally get on making the Tintin sequel??? All you need is one actor at a time in a motion capture stage and the director in a control room, right?
