Last year when I went to Disneyland for my bachelorette party, Mulan was the 1st meet and greet character I saw! Her costume was so pretty! I told her I was getting married in a few days and she gave me some marriage advice, one of which was "Eat lots of dumplings!" It was interesting though, cause upon speaking to her, she implied she was in a relationship Shang, which would mean that Mulan 2 is considered cannon for the character in the parks. With the new movie coming out, it might not be anymore.
From what I've seen all the animated movies are cannon for the actors. Same thing happens when you ask Ariel about Melody. I haven't done any meet n greets with princesses that have live action counterparts yet but I imagine since the costumes are not cannon they approach it like "another version of my story" and keep with the animated version as being the "real" one. Just my guess though. I think that probably makes it easier across the board since not every character has a live action movie (yet).
Rachael Mow agreed. If you talk to Aurora she doesn’t really reference “Maleficent.” The animated characters are the ones you meet in the parks. I did ask Mulan how she felt Liu Yifei playing her and she was excited
Disney, give me Mulan at the parks wearing the dress she defeats Shan Yu in, you cowards - or just way more of her in her armor, that'd be chill too. I've never gotten to see Ping at the parks. (though the dress is gorgeous of course, I won't lie, it just makes me sad that she sings this whole song about feeling like when she looks in the mirror in that outfit, she doesn't recognize herself, then she gets this great narrative arc full of character development and gaining confidence, she's chopped her hair, she's got a more low-key dress, and... they shove her right back into that bride/matchmaking dress :( )
Yes! The blue dress has a nice mix of masculine and feminine aspects! I love that they were thoughtful enough to use it for Ralph Breaks the Internet :)
Are you talking about her outfit she wore when she shot the mountain and destroyed the whole army or the dress she wore at the finale battle where Shan Yu exploads in the firecracker
@@ididntknowthatwasanoption I mean the mostly blue dress she wears at the end when she fights Shan Yu on the roof. It doesn't look like they've really had her wear that dress in the parks, and I've hardly ever seen her in that dress on merch either.
Honestly Mulan shouldn't wear the dress she wears to meet the match maker...the whole point of that dress is that she doesn't feel like herself in it. So it seems really weird seeing the character in it
She should be in her blue dress. The one she kills Shan Yu in. Sure, it's not as 'formal' as the other dresses but other than her boy look, it's her most iconic outfit.
@@KeepCalmContemplateYourChoices the blue dress is a perfect pick and for some reason I completely forgot about it? I was always a campaigner of the more relaxed military get up (no armpit but still a uniform) or the green dress we see in a lot of official art and in Mulan 2 as green is kinda Mulans color (her uniform is green) but the blue dress has way more potential as it’s got the really gorgeous sleeves and the great red bodice and you could even have her wearing the emperors pendant and I feel like it’s got just as much ability to be “prettified” for the parks and a much more manageable costume for the actor? Like he don’t they do that?
Oof, that first costume...the way they just stuck the haircomb to the front of the wig was awful. It's supposed to stick into the hair where the only part showing is the flower.
Putting Mulan in the matchmaker outfit in the parks wasn't really thought out well buttt as a fan of Chinese and Asian cultures since childhood as well as of hanfu (the style of Mulan's dress/ancient Chinese dress) I do love the modern version with the more authentic details sooo much, it's so pretty. Still we need an end of the movie Mulan look though. And tbh the costume designs of the live action movie doesn't thrill me compared to the costume designs of Asian period dramas... Even other live action movies about Mulan
Dan is so underrated. While I'd love to see a live action Mulan in the parks I don't think that's something they'll bring in. Just based on the fact that they haven't done anything with the other live action princesses. Though I'd die to see those costumes in person. Great video as always
Fun fact: it's because when you have a live action actor, you can't have another live action actor impersonate them quite as easily. With a cartoon, you can hire whoever you want. With someone like Giselle, who's live, you can't hire Amy Adams to work the parks - and people are gonna realise it's not Amy Adams.
Shadow the hedgehog Puppets she sorta has 3, the classic, Chiminey attire (which is used for winter park wise) and then (possiblly) her Mary Poppins 2 attire don’t know if they used that attire yet
I remembered seeing this parade at Disney World (1999) as a 4 year old and having my mind blown. We were there for several days and left early on the last day so our parents could turn off the computer because of the Y2K scare 🤣
Mulan was my idol growing up, especially because I was a little Chinese girl watching. I didn’t get to meet her in the park in 2017 but hopefully next year in 2023 I can. She is such a role model for me
I agree with others. Her dress at the end of the film is more appropriate but her matchmaker dress is the most recognizable so which one points to best product placement?
The reinvented Shanghai’s version of Milan has so many details that are specific to ancient Chinese fashion. I’m Chinese, and first time seeing that dress made me wanna cry. It’s so gorgeous how they kept the cartoon/Disney iconic silhouette and palette while adding Chinese details, because that’s a Chinese Disney park. Details are everything. I love it.
Okay, is there something I’m missing about the petticoat in that costume? It’s got layers of toole underneath it and I am by no means an expert in Chinese fashion history but I don’t think petticoats were every a big thing? Especially in 300 CE imperial China. Something about it just really rubbed me the wrong way and I love to hear your thoughts on it?
As you were talking about the parade, I suddenly had a memory of watching it with my family when I was little and how the giant Shan Yu float scared the heck out of me. Right after I was thinking of this you began to talk about it and I was like yeah! that’s the float....and it’s still kind of terrifying haha I don’t remember the boob melons though... which is funny because I remember everything else about the parade. Maybe I blocked it out haha! (I wanna look through my old pictures now and see if what pictures we have of this parade)
Hold up, were some of the old interpretations lowkey whitewashed? I mean, I get it'd be hard to hire French/ English speaking Asian women in France but still
A friend of mine used to work as a character attendant at Disney World and apparently the reasoning from the company is that the cast members usually play multiple characters, so if they required the non-white princesses to be played by people of the same race that would mean they couldn't play as many characters. (In most cases it would mean they could only play that one character because Disney has a diversity problem.) But yes, face characters get whitewashed all the time in the parks.
@@wishiwasaminiplane yes, that's true, there's a lady with a pretty popular channel on UA-cam who used to play Jasmine and Pocahontas (but she's white with olive skin/dark hair) and she said this too, she encouraged more POC to try to become cast members to fill in these roles. I'm sorry I can't remember her channel name maybe someone else knows it
@@Jaheartsjonas Jennifer? I think she said she's Latina but I may be wrong. I do remember that video though and how other cast members talked about how people who looked like the spitting image of the characters being rejected because people will notice the difference between someone who looks exactly like Jasmine versus generically pretty girls playing Jasmine who are easy to switch between shifts.
i just wanted to say that these videos seem a lot more alive when i can see the expressions on your face as you talk about things! plus the cool background helps too :)
I absolute love these videos! You're so charismatic and high energy. It's amazing! Can't stop laughing. And yeah, Mulan has the biggest death count for sure in all Disney
I was almost going to lunge down into the comments when you said Shan Yu is the most terrifying Disney Villain, but then I heard you say of the Disney Princess movies. That saved ya, cuz man I was about to leap up and be like "FROLLO?"
I genuinely love the Shan Yu costume (despite the meaty hands that are a tad silly but at least they are trying to be proportional?) I think his face is one of the better sculpts from Masked villain characters! Of course that makes him more intimidating but I think I find myself more in awe of a lot of the villains than actually scared, since I'm just so excited to see them 😅
I loved that Minnie got a beautiful elegant Hanfu for the Disney Dream show to match Mulan. It was so pretty, I really like when Disney gives some of the regulars different outfits for different events. It seems like Tokyo Disneyland is really good about this, giving the character appearances a lot of variety.
Dan, you sure you won't end up like the Toon Patrol Weasels with your constant cackling? Wouldn't want to lose you, man, to death by laughter! Lol, I kid, of course. Your videos are always insightful and entertaining to watch, and here's to the future with them!
You didn't notice??? The "red detailing" on her sash is Mushu! :D Naturally Shanghai's Mulan would look more historically accurate to her time period. She has been a folk hero in China since about 500 A.D.! I could only hope they would do it up right.
15:13 I hope these images are flipped because, as a simple google search will show: if a kimono's left side is folded in first, it symbolizes going to a funeral. The right side is folded in first for casual wear.
Dan you missed an opportunity. Mulan’s death count should have been 1998 🤣 Great job as always! Also I think Judge Claude Frolo might edge out Shan Yu slightly lol
Just stumbled on this, and I'm so glad I did!! I saw the Mulan parade in Disneyland shortly after it debuted. It is still in my top 5 Disney parades ever.
Honestly these costumes are AMAZING and beautiful and wonderful, but they do Mulan so dirty when she’s just in her matchmaker outfit. I like seeing Ping, but the end dress and short hair would be fun. Or at the very least I LOVE the more refined Mulan from Shanghai.
The classic movie of 1998 will always be my favorite version of Mulan. The remake was absolutely terrible! Fun to revisit this video though! I’m glad to go back through your old videos for Giggles, Memories and rare facts! Your videos always make me smile!
I’m here for the dancing buildings, mushu as barker dragon, cute little crickee and Dan’s enthusiasm and laugh. He could write a Wikipedia re this parade. ;).
Hey, Dan! Guess what! I met Mulan in her first parks look at Epcot for the first time and I showed her her portrait with her and her friends, and she LIKED it. And that was also the first time I stepped into Walt Disney World on March 2015.
Thx for doing this!!!!! Mulan is my favorite Disney master piece and movie in general! I absolutely love this UA-cam video, it was my first day back to college and Mulan is so under appreciated to Disney fans compared to more modern women Disney has put out. Also she's a great influence on young girls!
Oh my god I’m so glad I watched this video, I just had a visceral flashback to seeing the Shan Yu float and crying into my mom’s shirt so hard we left the park LOL I must’ve been 5 or so 😂😂😂
I think Mulan is fabulous in her different gowns. When I met her in 2009 at Disney World, she said she liked my wheelchair and asked me how I made it pink and why I had it. I told her it helps me to get around on vacation and when I am in my community and that it was customized for me by my doctors.
I liked the Shanghai design for Mulan. Dan, your laughter is infectious! You made me laugh so much that I snorted! ABSOLUTELY LOVE "Character Evolution" and "Distory"!
Fun fact about Y2K! I went to Disney World in 1999 for the turn of the millennium. My parents planned the trip to distract us from the fact that the end of the world was near because where else would you want to spend doomsday besides the Happiest Place on Earth?
I first met Mulan in 2002 at MGM Studios dressed as Ping and it was fantastic. I personally like the outfit they looks straight from the movie as opposed to one she wears now. I'd like to see her in the outfit when she saves China. It would be a nice in-between of her as Ping, but still being elegant at herself, but that's just my two cents.
Oh my god. So Disneyland story time. I only had vague memories of this before seeing this video, but now it's all coming back. In 1998 at Disneyland my dad and I were watching a nighttime parade with little three year old me on his shoulders. Next thing I know, I'm on concrete having been dropped when he started clapping thinking I was securely balanced. Well, now I remember it was the Mulan Parade and I'm pretty sure what my dad was clapping at was the Mushu float. I still have back issues because of that and now I know it was the Great Wall of Mushu that caused it.
Mulan is my favorite Disney animated movie. (And I LOVE Aladdin & TLK too). The instrumental of "Mulan's Decision" is my favorite part of the movie. (2nd is I'll Make A Man Out of You" and my 3rd is just at the end of the "Girl worth Fighting For" and viewing over the hill...)
Disney Dan, your channel has been my go to for when I'm having a bad day during quarantine. Your laugh is infectious and I love your distory videos! Thanks for making us all smile!
I'm wondering if they're going to try to ignore the Mulan "remake" in the parks since it was so .... not good. Like it was visually stunning, but they really avalanched over the plot.... I'd love to hear your thoughts on this
Disney dan!! For years I have had weird memories of a parade with walking buildings, a giant flying shan yu and mushu on a bike taxi. I thought that my brain was just making things up but now that you have video footage those memories are flooding back to me!! Thank you, now I don’t have to question my sanity 😅

I all ways found it weird that she wears the dress that she has a hole song about how it’s not her
Ikr

The building costumes are so funny! “Mom, can we meet buildings with feet from ....Mulan?!?!?” “Pleaseeee”
Oof, that first costume...the way they just stuck the haircomb to the front of the wig was awful. It's supposed to stick into the hair where the only part showing is the flower.
I swear the Kermits are getting closer each time i look away
Dont blink
I counted 6 Kermits. THats 5 too many

Omg yes
I met her at disneyworld last year and she was great! One of the highlights of my vacation
Yay
Imagine you're at that parade having a great time with dancing Mushu then you get that terrifying Shan-Yu float on a PILE OF SKULLS
I remembered seeing this parade at Disney World (1999) as a 4 year old and having my mind blown. We were there for several days and left early on the last day so our parents could turn off the computer because of the Y2K scare 🤣
Your energy gives me so much joy. Thank you for your work, perspective, and attitude.
Can you do an evolution of Ariel’s costumes in the parks?
Tiffany Sparacino- No he hasn’t, I checked

Maybe Kiara (from Lion King 2) or Nana (from Peter Pan)!
You could name her luna
Ive always liked that name

"Full Melon Boobing it" - Dan 2020
your laugh makes me laugh and make my day! 🤣
Edit: Love your videos! 🙂
They should make a little animatronic mushu to sit on mulans shoulders
I genuinely love the Shan Yu costume (despite the meaty hands that are a tad silly but at least they are trying to be proportional?)
I think his face is one of the better sculpts from Masked villain characters!
Of course that makes him more intimidating but I think I find myself more in awe of a lot of the villains than actually scared, since I'm just so excited to see them 😅
The Mulan parade is my most distinct memory from my first Disney trip in 2000 when I was 6. I still have a wooden fan that they handed out during.
I'll make sure to play Dan's cover of "I'll make a man out of you" while watching the live action mulan
I loved that Minnie got a beautiful elegant Hanfu for the Disney Dream show to match Mulan. It was so pretty, I really like when Disney gives some of the regulars different outfits for different events.

Keep up for more Distory character evolutions! I'm all for it!

“If this movie [Mulan 2020] does really well and is well received-“ hahahahahahahaha
Shun Yu's costume seriously makes him look like a main Power Rangers villain. I love it!
That intro BOPPED
That intro rhymed so well Dan very well done
the newest walk around version looks really gorgeous. I think that's my favorite. I love those jade accents on her belt piece.
15:13 I hope these images are flipped because, as a simple google search will show: if a kimono's left side is folded in first, it symbolizes going to a funeral. The right side is folded in first for casual wear.
Dan you missed an opportunity. Mulan’s death count should have been 1998 🤣 Great job as always! Also I think Judge Claude Frolo might edge out Shan Yu slightly lol
The MGM and DL parades were gorgeous. Also, I’ve seen Donny Osmond perform “I’ll make a man out of you” and it’s fantastic.
*just crying because Disney just isn’t as fun as it used to be* DISNEY DO MORE THINGS LIKE THIS PLEASE
You know it's a good day when Disney Dan uploads one of these videos! I'll never get enough of that laugh! Keep doing what you're doing man 😂😂
I'm new here, the 'building with feet' comment with the wheeze laugh made my day! Great channel :)
I miss the old version of Mulan

First off, CAN WE GET DADDY DISNEY DAN IN A BROADWAY MUSICAL???? HIS VOICE IS SO DAMN GOOD!!!
I’m here for the dancing buildings, mushu as barker dragon, cute little crickee and Dan’s enthusiasm and laugh. He could write a Wikipedia re this parade. ;).
16:40 1st rule of Disney's live-action remakes is: We do not speak of the live-action remakes.
17:37 Well received? $80,000,000 budget: $30,000 return. Ouch!
I am SO stoked that Mulan got all the hype she deserves!
Ah, I loved the Mulan parade at the Studios! A friend of mine was a dancer in that parade. Such great floats, music and fun!
It seems like Dan is really thriving in quarantine. That ability to make himself laugh until he can't breathe is priceless rn
That intro tho, that was legendary
Hey, Dan! Guess what! I met Mulan in her first parks look at Epcot for the first time and I showed her her portrait with her and her friends, and she LIKED it. And that was also the first time I stepped into Walt Disney World on March 2015.

Mulan is my favorite Disney animated movie. (And I LOVE Aladdin & TLK too). The instrumental of "Mulan's Decision" is my favorite part of the movie. (2nd is I'll Make A Man Out of You" and my 3rd is just at the end of the "Girl worth Fighting For" and viewing over the hill...)
Thats my favorite part too! The music and animation is just the most beautiful thing.
Something u may not have noticed is that behind one of the mushy parts there was a pic and Maddie build board so that pic was maby made in 2013
Disney Dan, your channel has been my go to for when I'm having a bad day during quarantine. Your laugh is infectious and I love your distory videos! Thanks for making us all smile!
I love the Shanghai Disney version of Mulan's costume! So beautiful!
Oh my gosh, your Laughter and enthusiasm. 😂🤣 great video and info.
I'm wondering if they're going to try to ignore the Mulan "remake" in the parks since it was so .... not good. Like it was visually stunning, but they really avalanched over the plot.... I'd love to hear your thoughts on this
The Evolution of Alice in Wonderland characters
Yes i agree an Alice Distory is needed
Your laugh is so contagious and makes my fricken day! thank you for your content!!!!!
“Dragon, not lizard, I don’t do that tongue thing” which I always remember because I have a monitor lizard who does that “tongue thing” 😆
Disney dan!! For years I have had weird memories of a parade with walking buildings, a giant flying shan yu and mushu on a bike taxi. I thought that my brain was just making things up but now that you have video footage those memories are flooding back to me!! Thank you, now I don’t have to question my sanity 😅
0:58 you know that she “ burrowed her dad’s armor including his sword that she “ burrows “ .
I died when you brought West Side Story into this 😂❤️
I wish I had the chance to meet Mulan at Disney World, maybe someday, but I do think Ping should be seen more along with Lei Shang and Mushu!
I went to Cali Adventure in Feb and they had the Chinese new year parade with Mulan which was cute and fun. Maybe you can review that in the future
My first Disney parade was the Mulan parade! So many years ago. Great memories.
We went for the Buildings With Feet.
I can't stand the constant giggling of this guy, but the channel content is good to watch
