IMO the Disney version of Mulan was too short.

Especially considering that the historical Mulan was in discguise as a guy for like 12 years and was only discovered to be female when her comrades in arms decided to visit her at home.

A friend of mine lives in the villiage of China where she's from and where the temple devoted to Mulan is. There's even a festival each year in her honor and a crater on the planet Venus is named after her.

From the poem written about Mulan in the 6th century:

Facing the window she fixes her cloudlike hair,
Hanging up a mirror she dabs on yellow flower powder
She goes out the door and sees her comrades.
Her comrades are all amazed and perplexed.
Traveling together for twelve years
They didn't know Mu-lan was a girl.
"The he-hare's feet go hop and skip,
The she-hare's eyes are muddled and fuddled.
Two hares running side by side close to the ground,
How can they tell if I am he or she?"

*sniffs* And now I want to kill Disney even more

Anyone want to stop any chances of another Mulan sequal happening?

All I have to say is this...

Bought it, watched it, LOVED IT!

It was great (not as good as Lilo and Stitch 2, but up there), telling the story about Bambi and his Dad that the first movie totally glossed over (that always bugged me whaen I was a kid).

I reserve judgement until I actually see it. The animation looks beautiful and such, but even a poorly executed story can kill that right off. I think another important thing is to compare this with other sequels rather than the original. While I think this will be great for a sequel, it's no question that the original will always reign supreme.

Difference of opinion, I loved it but that doesn't mean everyone else is going to. (L&S2 was better, but I felt that this was a great sequel compared to the likes of The Lion King 2, Mulan 2, etc...)

Well I for one am gonna buy this since it's not gonna be in stores long. There's not many disney sequels that I actually liked. I refuse to see Mulan 2 or 3 and I saw Cinderella 2 (which is just a bunch of shorts) on tv.

Here's my opinion on other sequels:

Hunchback of Notre Damn 2: The Gargoyles stole the entire movie. A sequel was not needed cuz well the Hunchback (and his lady love) die in the original story!

Little Mermaid 2: The plot with Ariel's daughter hating being on land and wishing to be in the ocean was just a rehash from Ariel hating being in the ocean and wishing to be on land. And if Ursula had an evil sister how come nobody knew about her? Only fun things? Rob Paulsen reprising his role as the prince and Cam Clarke voicing a now adult Flounder (who has like 6 kids

)

Lady and the Tramp 2: Tramp and Lady's son Scamp has adventures. It was a well thought out film but my only thing against it was that they had it set in the U.S. Uh Disney hellooo! The Italian restauraunt used in the movies is in Germany not the U.S! I know cuz I've been to it. Just go to Landschtule folks. I lived just down the street from the restauraunt for several years.

The town was made (in the sequel) to be U.S based but it's not. It's Landschtule. As for the sequel...it was cute. It wasn't really needed but hey...people often wonder what happened with the pups. So now we know.

Pocahontas 2: WTH where they thinking with this crap! Yes a sequel was needed but it totally ruined historical facts!!! In the end of the film Pocahontas returns home for gods sakes! She never returned home!! She died in England and was buried in Gravesend! She wasn't reunited with John Smith till AFTER she was christianised, renamed Rebecca, married John Rowlf, and had a kid (who later went to America where his descendents live today...Pres. Bush is one of em). If you want to see a movie that's actually TRUE to the story see "The New World" out in theatres now. Or read the book "Pocahontas: True Princess" This movie pisses me off to no end.
