Mulan - Live Action

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

I wonder why they didn't cast a black actress in the lead here? Racists.

Fuck Mulan Disney
Disney is facing backlash after the final credits for its latest film “Mulan” thanked government entities in Xinjiang, the province where Muslims have faced human rights abuses.

The film had already generated controversy after its lead actress, Liu Yifei, recently expressed support for police crackdowns in Hong Kong, spurring talks of boycotts on social media.

That sentiment only increased after it came to light that Disney filmed scenes for the “Mulan” movie in China’s Xinjiang province, where Beijing is accused of detaining more than 1 million Uighur Muslims.

After releasing “Mulan” on Disney+, eagle-eyed viewers noticed a “special thanks” in the film’s end credits that named eight government entities in Xinjiang, including the public security bureau in the city of Turpan, where the country is allegedly operating more than a dozen “reeducation” camps.

The credits also thank the publicity department of CPC Xinjiang Uighur Autonomy Region Committee, an agency that produces state propaganda efforts.

I heard that even worse, they ruined the character. In the cartoon she elevated her station in life with her wits and hard work. In this movie, she was just born with magic or something.

Meh.

Do business in China and you're glad handing with every sort of evil out on the planet right now. So name a corporation doing business with and/or in China that doesn't deserve a hearty "fuck you".

That's the problem with getting political as a corporation. No matter what you do, at some point you're going to look hypocritical.
