Perfectly Imperfect with Christine and Regina - A podcast by Christine Chen & Regina Fang

DISCLAIMER: Before we get started with this week’s episode about our thoughts on Disney’s new live action Mulan, we wanted to address the controversies surrounding the film. We understand the frustrations and concerns including the main actress, YiFei’s, comments on the Hong Kong protests/police brutality and Disney’s decision to film Xinjiang where there are active Concentration Camps. We do not in anyway condone their behavior or actions and believe that this is something that Disney needs to address directly, and we hope they do so soon out of the respect of the one million lives that are still in suffering.  With that being said, we respect everyone’s decision as to why they would or wouldn’t want to watch Mulan. This episode is meant to dissect the film based on our own love of the original animated one and the impact it has had on us as Asian Women, we hope you enjoy this episode. WARNING: SPOILERS Soooo, let's talk Disney's new live action Mulan. This week, we invite our incredibly talented sister, Minji, to help us dissect the film from an industry perspective, and we have a LOT to say. Having grown up with the animated film, we each have an emotional attachment to Mulan; she was the first Disney princess who looked like us and inspired us with her courage, perseverance, and loyalty. So, how did Disney do with the live action retelling? Listen in to this week's episode! P.s. Spoilers! Follow Minji here! Instagram: @minjeezy, Podcast: First of All Follow us here!
