Today, the Kicking the Seat Podcast and Don Shanahan of Every Movie Has a Lesson look at Mulan! No, not the 2020 live-action remake that has been indefinitely shelved; up for discussion is the 1998 2-D animated film about a village girl who assumes the role of a male soldier in the Chinese Emperor's war against the Huns.
This fun and sometimes flippant chat encompasses societal and cultural changes of the last two decades; the beauty of traditional animation; and speculation as to whether or not the updated Disney film will be too different from the original to be worthwhile.
Also, Ian gets his 80's on with a look at Shout! Factory's "Select" Edition Blu-ray of The Wizard (as well as a must-see documentary about the Nintendo Power Glove), and plugs a recent appearance on the You'll Probably Agree podcast!
Episode 519 will make a man out of you!
