Honest Trailers | Mulan 

All things considered it is a war lol

But which kill count is bigger? The deaths of all the Huns or SPOILERS: the deaths of all those creatures from the Moors in "Maleficent: Mistress of Evil"?

Does she? I don't know of any examples that particularly contradict that, but I think a Game Theory on it would be amusing.

“Welcome to the Kill Count where we tally up the victims in all our favorite Disney movies!”

@@jsmalls9575 Your comment is gold!

That’s an interesting point.

that's actually a really good point, especially considering how the last song gets cut off the moment they enter the village.

I also like that ALL the songs are either about gender roles or identity. It's a completely different structure to what all the other Disney musicals have. Only True to your heart is awful.

Very true! I also feel that having less songs allows for quality over quantity, and I think that Mulan struck a good balance in that regard. I especially love the songs, "Be a Man," and, "Reflections," because the lyrics and overall presentation are so memorable and poignant.

I was going to post the same thing, it’s an amazing detail that I had not noticed for years until I read a similar comment on another video a year ago.

And I'm just like, "Yaay! They're singing again!"

Yes, Reflection was a great song. You don't mock it.

3:45 that impression is so spot on

@@CelticVictory Reflection is overrated.

Two of those were GREAT songs.

I’m not crying. There’s just something in my eye…

No not really... In the Philippines we have a lot of Ancient Filipina heroes like Gabriela Silang, Josefa Llanes Escoda, etc. That scene didnt affect me much. 🙄🙄🙄

Sadly the live action one definitely won't have that.

I balled

Seriously, I recently rewatched it, and there were so many moments that made me genuinely tear up. I feel like this HT was a little unfair to everything but the racism...

He was awesome.

He is definitely one of the best Disney animated villains, and a big part of it is that he is treated 100% seriously throughout the entire film. No jokes, no songs, no dumb sidekick annoying him. Just pure, near-emotionless violence. (Even if it is almost entirely off-screen.) I'm not saying that all Disney villains need to be like that, but in this case it lets him be the scariest foe in the canon.

*shudder*

Michael Ramon That, and the whole way he is depicted. His posture, aggressive momevent, oppressing tone of voice, grim humour, and he even seems smart underneath that hulking stature.

He Does make simple line sound Terrifying.makes you wonder if the child's alive

Wherefore art thou me Most of the comedy after that point is Mushu’s one liners, and even those are toned down until Shan Yu is Katy Perry’d.

@@jbcatz5 saying someone has been Katey Perry'd is my new favorite thing 😂

Preach!

You right.

@@brownrice3042 Thank you bruv

That and “I’ll make a man out of you”

That and “I’ll make a man out of you”

What about Scar's be prepared

Zuko: "I MUST FIND THE AVATAR AND RECLAIM MY HONOR!" Your quote: ^

Seriously. NO ONE was MIA during this montage. It's one of the best Disney songs out there!!

Shamefur Dispray !

😂😂😂😂😂😂

You know that blasphemy means speaking against God, right?

Slow clap.

Give this person an Internet medal, goddammit.

Is that he's so easily...ticked?

Badum tss

@ You say it's outdated, but I'm pretty sure that it's currently my most liked comment, so I think that it's got a little bit of life left in it.

well well well see where we are today.. looks like shan yu got his dream after all.. not just china, but the whole world!

^ THIS

Wait! What about George Takei. Oh my!

me too lol

one of the greatest Disney songs ever

On my gym playlist

I think something’s wrong if it doesn’t.

We used to sing it in the locker room before swim meets

LOL, true and has Elsa actually killed anyone with her snow/ice? XD

@@daikaizouku1468 not that we've seen. You never know what someone will do off screen...

No. Disney has become more PG

Aditya Menon And yet the new Mulan is PG-13. Go figure.

@@ArynWellspring blame the society on that one..show even a smidge of realistic action..and that's like we must be there to monitor our kids so that they don't get influenced to violence.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

WE...MUST...MAKE...THIS...TOP...COMMENT!!!

Yes!

Since the release of Mulan, no one has been able to say, "Let's get down to business," without hearing, "To defeat...the Huns!"

So true!

Shut the hell up, Nappa... And you might, survive!!

@@SL1CEND1CEN Vegeta, are we there yet?

It also just HAPPENS to be the big turning point of the movie...

Your proud of that? Shanyu is a mass murderer. He couldnt care less about gender roles.

Maybe that’s cause there were many female warriors in nomadic societies?

I believe that he was so angry that even if he was sexist, he didn't even care about the gender of "the soldier of the mountains" once he found out because by then all he wanted was revenge.

@@equusquaggaquagga536 I dont expect the VILLAIN to do good things, lol

@@allurajane4979 Women among the huns had higher status than chinese, the women even could fight side by side with the men so... For Shan, Mulan is just another soldier

You're correct. The dumbasses who made this have absolutely no clue what this film or the Mulan story is about.

@@paulsoldner9739 Considering the Disney adaptation is pretty far from the source materiel itself, I don't see how HT's interpretation of the movie is really that significant >.>

@@ericlanglois9194 its literally based on a myth

@@galaxycraftings more specifically it's based on a story that is based on a myth, that's my point.

I love that song

huh, i thought i was the only one who knew his wife

Dishonor on your family!

Agreed

Nope. Definitely one of the weakest Disney songs in the one of the weakest Disney movies. Honest Trailers got this exactly right!

I did not know what that means....until now. *It means he (the archer) shot one of the 2 guys....

Aegys TierOne Hun was Disney’s underrated baddie. I liked how unrelenting he was and that he wasn’t redeemable at all

Took me YEARS to figure out what happened...I guess that's a good thing haha

I’ve always known what it meant, and have wondered for some time whether the bowman killed the defiant one or the cowering one.

@@nosfonader8792 What even is his real name anyway.

I'm the same when someone says "Hello there".

@@chocov1233 General Kenobi. You are a bold one.

@@richyrich7260 A man of culture I see.

LOL😂

wonderful!

Becca G It’s blasphemous!

All right, that's it! Dishonor! Dishonor on all of Screen Junkies! (Make a note of this.) Dishonor on them! Dishonor on their cow!

Seriously!

Becca G me its my least favorite song in the movie

@@crystall.411 Even the Jackie Chan version?

They make fun of things. That's their job.

@God Of Thunder why?

This has got to be by far the most virtue signaling-heavy trailer they have put out so far. It felt like they had some Buzzfeed hack write the script for it.

Melon Lord Yeah, they make fun of things, but this seems more pessimistic and less light-hearted than their usual, “let’s make fun of the inconsistencies and tropes in this movie.” No hate, I love HT, but this seems more negative than usual.

@@s29nv1sr1 If you love the movie you have no knowledge or respect for Chinese history or culture. I can see why American audience would love it.

Hey - I found a version made by Dan Vasc, it's a metal cover but it is EPIC. Cannot recommend it enough!

Loa sing with me (Chanting Chinese)

Is it? Better than "Dishonour on your cow" and "The popping up like DAISIES!!"? Or my personal favourite "Sing me up for the next war" and "don't you want to stay forever"

We can't forget "SAY THAT TO MY FACE YOU LIMP NOODLE!"

Laughs in dramatic Tolkien. 😂

The Tolkien orcs was inspired by Huns and Mongolians

@@Imlaor25 That's the irony that most viewers miss!

Mongowians!!!

@@jaronmalone3945 but, they're supposed to be huns, two different people.

I mean, personally, I hated waiting through Disney’s obligatory songs when I was a kid. They say something will happen, break out in song for no reason, and the thing happens. I can appreciate them now, but they took me right out of the experience when I was younger.

@@ShePudding I'll make a man out of you is actually COOL though... it's one of the few Disney songs in my childhood that boys could admit to liking without being made fun of.

Person: *walks out of “Be A Man”* Rest of the World: So you have chosen DEATH.

@@barbarajoseph-adam8337 I was at that screening too. The crazy fool brought it on himself...! Smh

Snow White never asked for a man, either, until that poisoned apple (which was not her damn fault). Neither did Sleeping Beauty - she just "needed a man" to kiss her because of that stupid curse.

Well, not quite true, Aurora was dreaming of meeting Mr. Right beforehand, she was just p... off that she wasn't allowed to be with him and was supposed to marry some prince, not knowing that they were the same person. And Snow White is singing in the well that she wants a prince. Cinderella is the only one of the classic princesses, who didn't really care for romance, she just wanted a better life and some fun at the ball.

@@swanpride It's not about caring for romance, it's about needing the man to be saved, if Cinderella never met the prince at the ball she probably would be in the same situation till some other man or death. Basically, needing something and wanting something are different things.

@@bluester7177 I'd argue it wasn't the prince Cinderella needed, it was her fairy godmother. The fairy godmother was the one who decided Cinderella needed to go to the ball, and created the chain reaction ending with the marriage. Without the fairy godmother, Cinderella would still be at the house, even more miserable than before. Now, personally if we're to focus on need, I think the godmother should've given Cinderella a one way ticket out of town to a place she'd be happy in. Although, now that I think about it, she's killing two birds with one stone by satisfying Cinderella's want for the ball, and indirectly (or directly?) pairing her up with the prince, with the prince being nothing more than a means to an end to remove Cinderella from her home.

Estelle Vu Exactly! And, in the end, she didn’t need either the fairy godmother or the prince to save her. She saved herself, with some help from her friends

Detroit Become Human Honest Trailer : "Ay, wazzup."

Standoffish_ you’re correct 💯💯💯

One of, yes. -- B.

It's in my top 3, right after Tangled and Hercules.

Elsa must be trrigered after seeing this part

Michaela Bauer I’m getting deja vu 😶😶

But Elsa never dreamed of killing anyone with snow. She just came close to killing a few with ice. See? There's a difference.

It's the only good part

Is that the remake you’re talking about?

@@xs0528 no, I'm talking about this video. The writers of the script of this video.

@@aimeebautistasuero2404 Oh.

Elsa could’ve taken that title easy. If only she had the balls. Would’ve made for one hell of an ending...

@@VideoGuy232 Well if Elsa was more like the Snow Queen from...well the Snow Queen, then she would be able to probably kill everyone.

Nah, she couldn't because unlike Mulan she still isn't an official Disney Princess. Disney is still too busy milking the Frozen Franchise to fold it into the Disney Princess Franchise.

@@swanpride I think it has more to do with that China $

Mat Pat

Makes me shed tears....ALL THE DAMN TIME....sniffs.

It is also great for endurance workouts

I legit play it while I workout. I run for longer or push for more reps.

that song this the best.

The only Disney song I love more than this is the "Reflection", always makes me cry

gotta figure it'll be in the cut scenes

Or....the Mulan Virus.....

Hi surprised there wasn't a "Mulan Rouge" joke in this video, I'm MrPatel97

Probably saving it for the live-action.

Hi, MrPatel97, I’m Ricvictors

Did not know that and now I wish it had been in the video. Thumbs up for you.

So why dafuq did he need Mulan to bail him out when he could have yeeted those Mongols himself?!

Wow. I didn't know that

George Takai has a role in the movie too, he is the ancestor.

Thanks for the fact, I had no idea Pat Mortita played the Emperor of China in Disney's Mulan movie.

Yep. It's a favorite Disney song. I'm really excited to see what they do with the live action.

Did they send me spoilers? When I asked for comments?

naaah...i prefer the songs from the sequel

You got me

oliver wenzel That’s the first time I’ve heard anyone talk positively about the Mulan sequel

Uruk-Hai

Loved that line

To put More Salt on the wound they were actually black people in the books

Nah they Cleary criticized to their hearts content but because it wasn't really criticism, like you can tell they didn't rewatch the movie, everyones dissing them

but the chicken tendies!!!

Well now I think hes a moron.

Dishonor to his family! Dishonor to his cow!

They didn't diss it though, they just said it was a training montage song, which it is. A great training montage song.

500th like

It's one of the best, least PC (and therefore fantastic) Disney songs ever.

True story. It's defs top 5 Disney tunes for me. Such a jam

That is actually on my gym playlist 😂

It’s on my workout playlist too 🤣🤣🤣♥️

It would be, if it wasn't cause "be a man" is politically incorrect nowadays. Screen Junkies are clearly becoming more and more leftist shills nowadays.

Rocky theme.

The second part made me laugh so much 😂😂your wife is lucky

CornishCreamtea07 In fact, it is the best reason

FACTS

Arguably the only reason.

screen-time*

When you got to get good and you don't have a lot of time it's gotta be a montage!

I SCROLLED DOWN UP TO HERE LOOKING FOR THIS COMMENT (or at least half of it, cause True to Your Heart is not my favourite song and the movie could go without it hahahaha but I see the point and it just makes the whole idea better)!

Very well thought out

Omg yes, Khan is badass!

“Yet the only girl who'd love him is his mother” from A Girl Worth Fighting For is the sickest burn ever found in a Disney song.

@@barbarajoseph-adam8337 I don't know, "Hellfire" from The Hunchback of Notre Dame mentions burning a lot.

Barbara Joseph-Adam “and if you was married, you’d be pushed around by your wife.” Is the sickest burn in a Disney villain song ever

@@forwhomthetacobelltolls What movie was that?

Adam Placencia Princess and the Frog

To be fair though, getting down to business can be a euphemism for going to the bathroom...

*under 50

Uh "Lets get down to business" is the song I sing in the bathroom

"- to control the world" ♪

Over 30 too!

I’ve never looked at it that way. If intentional, it was a good choice in showing how serious war is.

Great point! The fact that Mulan doesn't have a lot of songs is one of the reasons I love it. It is also one of the reasons I love The Emperor's New Groove.

Tbf it has a lot of songs they just switch to scores when they get to the destroyed village

Agreed. I'd also seen that theory on Tumblr and it makes complete sense. I mean, that entire transition from the abrupt end of "A Girl Worth Fighting For" and them finding the village is enough to give someone whip-lash. And the fact that there are NO more sung musical numbers after that when there were so many before pretty much HAS to be intentional.

Apparently the progressive people. Hence we're getting a 'corrected' version... :/

@@hassathunter2464 I don't think so. We're getting one because Disney's biggest market is China, so they're pandering to an audience with the actual accurate story, instead of a remake pandering to Americans.

It was divisive when it came out. Misogynists and white supremacists were whiny af.

It IS divisive. Most westerners loved it, but the movie flopped in China because the Chinese disliked that Disney misrepresented dragons with Mushu.

@@davidashton3671 you had me in the first half, dawg. XD

Ya, what’s up w/ that?!,

That scene is the perfect example of how to do emotional whiplash right. The movie was very flawed but it had such great moments

Jon's delivery was perfect.

@@albericponcedeleon2696 Yes it was.

Same here!

Not woke enough for this neckbeard

Was her father a nobleman? I thought he was just a farmer.

Yeah she's not a princess, but officially she's in the Disney Princess franchise because she "committed an act of bravery." ~:~

Not a nobleman, but more like a rich farmer. Only rich people who can afford weapons would be recruited and a nobleman would be a low rank solider.

Yes but that's not what video is about. It is about how the movie goes so far from the story and Aslan culture values to promote gayness it just sucks.

Don't forget the main actress from this remake supports 🇭🇰 Hong Kong police (who were abusing power) during democracy college protests.

WanPwr 5990 the only good joke on the whole video

The point is very few important roles go to minorities in the first place, so a movie that naturally would expect to have roles for Chinese actors, ironically still goes to mostly white or non Chinese actors.

@@BishtrainerTai16 It is a VOICE ACTING ROLE, if they were using heavy Asian accents that would one thing, but they don't. Its not a literal role. If the voice actor is good and can show proper inflection that is what matters in cartoons.

I thought they butchered all of the songs. What I always liked about 'Honest Trailers', was that they were able to make fun of a film's songs, while still being able to keep the parodied songs sounding like the originals. Here? They didn't seem to care enough about the songs to do that; just "going through the motions", so to speak.

Cho Vue They have to give this Honest Trailers some type of award or something, for a moment I totally forgot the virus and couldn’t stop laughing

The only one i thought that didn't was the last song.

There's legal issues that keep even a parody song from being too close to the original

Never thought you'd see the day when what?

To be fair the hun were pretty terrible.

Raphael Miller still humans though.

@@gemini88miller The chinese were not better, you know? Both of them were war crime machines, but the hun were a little more powerful warriors so they look like the villain.

Second best. Best would be Hellfire.

An underrated and often forgotten/unknown film, and I’d prefer it and Treasure Planet stay that way, and not have honest trailers that point out flaws I’m unaware of

Wow, almost forgot that was a movie.

And at the end, can you say: "Try riding a bicycle at night and picking up a moving burrito based on the sound that it makes. That is how the owl do." But in a Morgan Freeman voice. Or ZeFrank voice. You do you.

The only Disney movie i can name that has no songs.

I just watched stargate for the first time and it made me uncomfortable learning Atlantis was clearly a copy of it 😂

Enclosed Pool Area no, I’d be totally interested in a good burn of I’ll make a man out of you, but this just wasn’t it

@@jadonrowe273 Nah, when they consider a movie to be good, they let it be known

Same in the States. It is generally considered to be one of Disney's best songs ever, top three or four or better for most. And considering this is Disney we're talking about, that's really saying something.
