Did we need a live-action version of Mulan? What was wrong with the animated version (that is better in the live version)? Edit: I might even have been excited about a new version of Mulan if not for the controversies surrounding it. It is a shame because it was one of my favourites as a child.
> Disney is under fire for shooting its new film Mulan in parts of China where the government is accused of serious human rights abuses. Because as we all know, if they’d shot it in any other province, the crimes against humanity basically aren’t even happening!

We don’t “need” any movie. Anyway, I liked the live action one. Nothing groundbreaking of course but what movie is these days?

Did we need a live version of Lord of The Rings? What was wrong with the print version? The original Mulan legend is good material as is the original movie. If the new movie had been any good we'd likely all be happy for it. A Star Was Born has been re-made 4 times. The most recent is the highest rated. Pride and Prejudice has been made several times. I personally really enjoyed the mid 90s version. Mutiny on Bounty…

There’s a difference between not stopping genocide and giving money and recognition to the people conducting it. The actual point of the criticism is more nuanced than what you quoted: > social media users noticed that in the credits Disney thanked a number of government entities in Xinjiang, including the public security bureau in the city of Turpan and the "publicity department of CPC Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomy Regio…

I guess for me it's not so much the remaking even as Disney remaking it's own properties. I like the BBC pride and prejudice more than the more recent remake, but perhaps that's just nostalgia.
