[QUOTE="The IbanezerScrooge, post: 74106180, member: 380295"] The trailer for Mulan makes it look like it's going to be a fantastic movie. I know that's the trailer's job, but lets hope it lives up to it. Mulan is one of my least favorite Disney films. In keeping with the discussion of the thread, though, I do have to say, if they were to cast anyone other than mostly Asian actors in the main roles of the film I think there'd be a lot of push back. :) People tried that with the last airbender, but there's nothing really necessarily Asian about that world. It was just that the story used Asian cultural elements in it. Even in the cartoon version Aang didn't look particularly Asian to me along with a lot of the other characters and I actually thought M. Night matched him pretty well. Actually, a lot of anime is drawn in such a way as to mute the Asian features of the characters, IMO. [/QUOTE]
