prevnexti’m disgusted. disney is obviously still mad they accidentally made li shang bisexual, so they’re REMOVING ANY POSSIBILITY that “chen” is seen as bisexual. they make it clear he HATES mulan the whole time she’s presenting male. he bullies her up until he finds out she’s a woman. https://t.co/vsj5B9uDGp

prevnexteverything wrong with the new mulan live action:
no music
no li shang
no mushu or cricky
a witch is the villain
mulan has a sister?
storyline changeseverything was perfect in the first movie. why is there a need for these many changes?

prevnextMulan has a mysterious power. So we are gonna just take away the fact that she earned her spot in the army with ingenuity and hard-work.
Chen is a typical bully who suddenly isn’t a bully when Mulan, his victim, is revealed to be a woman.
Rename this movie. It’s not Mulan. pic.twitter.com/5eW4z2uLbp

disney: literally erases a main character from the series they're rebooting bcuz he was too closely associated w/ bisexuality, making him instead a 'rival' character that ONLY feels romance for GIRL mulan
@harleivy
prevnextdisney might be removing shang from the mulan liveaction remake but he'll ALWAYS be a bisexual icon in the animated movie and theres not a damn thing they can do about it and guess what? animations are forever gonna be superior to live action movies anyway. we stay winning gays. pic.twitter.com/ypLxqoIEW0

prevnextdisney: *basically remakes beauty and the beast shot for shot*
also disney: the mulan remake will be closer to the source material than the original film what do you mean "we are trying to avoid the bisexual subtext we accidentally created" we are taking RISKS

prevthe best thing about the original mulan is that shang learns to respect and love mulan irregardless of gender!!! if how he feels about her HINGES on her gender then it undercuts the WHOLE POINT
