Mulan Vs Disney Version

Some things are different in the book and movie. Like Sunset Towers and Money in both versions. Sunset towers is luxurious in the book but a bad place to live downtown. The money the will was worth 200 million but in the movie it is worth 20 million. Another difference is that the Wexlers moved to Sunset Towers because they had no money, but in the book they moved because they had money. In the movie Jake Wexler is paying off his debt though they have money in the book. Jake Wexler is a

When we saw the movie and the book and saw the movie, there were a couple of thing that they did not mention or did in the movie. In the movie they cut out some thing from the book. They did not really put everything they said in the book into the movie. They also did not really get some people personal feature. Here are something that were different from the movie, than what it said from the book.

To begin, Wild Orchid and the Disney interpretation of "Mulan" can be compared in their battle outlook of the story. In both stories Mulan goes to fight in her father's place. For example, in chapter 11 of Wild Orchid it states, "I would go to fight in his place." As with the Disney Interpretation of "Mulan" the sequence that showed Mulan departing to fight, Mulan had decided that she would go to fight in his place. This is evidence because it clearly states how the battle scenario would turn out. While the battle scenario does differentiate between both literature works the way the battle starts is always with Mulan going to battle. Another way the literature pieces compare with each other is that in both the movie and the book the Huns die and Mulan is the savior of China and is asked by the emperor to be granted a wish of her heart's desire.

Disney’s Mulan is a well-made movie with many accurate key events, but in some scenes Disney’s ‘Mulan’ portrayed inaccuracies. Historically speaking the movie was accurate in the way it depicted Mulan fighting the Huns. Research shows that Mulan lived in the time frame of 420 -589 AD and the Huns lived in the time frame of 434 – 553 AD ("Hua Mulan", 2017) ("Han dynasty", 2017) so this proves that the Huns lived around the same time as Mulan. It is possible that they would have fought each other in war. On the other hand, it also displayed inaccuracies at the end of the movie when they were in the forbidden city (imperial Palace) fighting the Huns. Mulan and the Huns were dead when the forbidden city (imperial palace) was constructed in 1406

The original tale is written by Hans Christian Anderson. Disney’s version could be called a complete 180 from the original. There are some small parts that align, like her saving the prince and falling for him and visiting the sea witch who takes her tongue (voice) for her legs. The deal remains the same: the mermaid can only stay human if the prince falls in love with her and marries her. However, the penalty is far more severe, she will die if she fails. There is also an unfortunate penalty to have legs: every single step she takes on land will feel like she is walking on sharp glass. On the other hand in the Disney movie the prince ends up with another girl (in the story, they do get married and it’s not the sea witch). She is given one option left to return to the sea. If she kills the prince, she can keep her life and gets to be a mermaid again. I’d say that’s a win-win. Of course, it isn’t for her, she loves the prince so much that she can’t go through with it. The mermaid throws herself in the sea and turns into sea foam. At least she was faithful till the

Disney’s Mulan has depicted the religion/beliefs accurate and inaccurate in many key events. An example of an accurate scene was when Mulan’s grandma gave her a lucky cricket for good. Disney portrayed this scene well and accurate because research show that throughout Chinese history, crickets have symbolized wisdom and prosperity which is what makes the lucky ("Why Is a Cricket a Sign of Good Luck? | Synonym", 2017). In the balled did not get given a lucky cricket but that is probably because Mulan didn’t have a grandma in the story. Mulan likely could have been given a lucky cricket by her grandma because Chinese believed in that. One of the inaccuracies in the movie was the talking red dragon Mu-Shu. There was a talking dragon called Mu-Shu

The legend of Mulan, the Chinese woman warrior, was first presented in an annonomous poem called “the Ballad of Mulan” which dated back the 6th sentury Tang Dynansty. The poem was written in five segments; each one represents Mulan’s origin, experience in the battlefield, and also sense of obedience to her family. The legend lives on as it is passed from one generation to other generation through diverse versions such as storytelling, poem, and movies. Ultimately, the ballad takes on a new form when it was adapted into a 1998 Disney animated feature. This is the first time Disney has drawn on an Asian

There are many different versions of the classic story, Cinderella. Grimm’s version was just as wonderful, but had more twisted moments than Disney’s story. Both stories are about a girl who overcomes the cruelty of her evil stepmother and stepsisters and ends up living happily ever after. Although, there are many differences, there are three that stand out. The three main differences are, the father died in disney's version but did not die in Gimms version, there was no fairy godmother in Grimm's version but there was in Disney's, and in the original version the stepsisters cut their heels and toes off so it would fit in the slipper but in the Disney version they did not.

After reading the Woman Warrior and watching the movie Mulan I have noticed many things that were the same but many things that were also very different about the stories. But among the many different variations the three that stood out most to me was the training, origin story, and war. Because all of these characteristics play such a big role to the story its very easy to notice and tell the difference between the two stories.

Like most movies based on novels, there are some major differences between the written and the theatrical versions of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.

Furthermore, compared to the modern Disney Hua Mulan story, the classic hero Joan of Arc is much more gritty, harsh and real. Although she went to war at the beckon and call of her God, her voluntary sacrifice for her country, and leadership skills in battle were much more real than Mulan’s, sudden accomplishments of insubordination. Not only that but the difference in how they went about dressing as men differed. For instance Mulan goes undercover as a man to replace her father in the war, but Joan of arc entered the war as a woman and dressed as a man out of personal preference showing that she is proud of who she is, unlike mulan who is unsure of who she is.

It’s a story about a strong independent young woman and a handsome talented general facing an army of soldiers led by a ruthless man in a strict government setting. Fighting for her father’s survival, Mulan, signs up for the Chinese army in hopes of restoring her family’s honor where it is illegal for a woman to join. She later encounters her ancestor/guardian, Mushu, who is a mini dragon. It is in the army that she meets Shang, the handsome young general. Mulan completes many of the tasks thrown at her with hard work and great enjoyment but in the process falls for the young man.

Earlier this week, my family and I went to the see new Jungle book movie. I felt that this movie and Mulan both show elements of the mono myth. In the Jungle book, I saw a refusal of the call from Mowgil. He did not want to go to the man village. He felt most comfortable with his wolf pack in the jungle, but he does leave the jungle and start his journey. In the end of the movie, he goes to the man village to get the lit torch also known as the red flower. He goes back to the jungle and uses it to kill Shere Khan. In the movie Mulan, it was easy for me to see the supernatural aid. Mulan was given Mushu from her ancestors to help her during her journey. In both movies they are the heroes in the end, and go through the mono myth steps.

The movie Mulan is about a young woman in search of finding herself and learning about her culture. In the traditional Chinese culture the wife is typically known as the supporter and is like a house wife. Mulan is a young woman trying to bring honor to her family and make her father proud. She struggles with the decision of bringing honorable to her family and protecting her aged father that has been called into for war. She then begins to cut her hair and prepare herself to become a warrior in place of her father 's place. As a warrior at the camp she has a conversation with the young dragon and she says," I 'm sorry, I have to protect my father". As she displayed that she had the capability of doing what a man could do in the war. As she has proven herself by her strength and her

Disney princess. Mulan is no one's damsel in distress, which makes her the most formidable Disney princess of them all. Wait… See, I know what you’re thinking. You may be confused.
