1st Impression: While the animated Mulan film was not one of my Disney favorites, I have been following the live-action film’s development closely and have been nothing but impressed with the cinematography and choreography on display in this trailer as well as the previous one. I would have loved to have seen this film in IMAX, but sadly that will not be the case. Nonetheless, the film looks great, and I can’t wait to see it in a few weeks.
My Take: After numerous postponements due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Disney has decided to release Mulan on their Disney+ streaming service instead of waiting for theaters to re-open.
As someone who went to the movies on opening day, I have no issues with the $30 price tag since my wife, and I would spend at least $50 to see a film between admission and concessions and now with a little one it would be at least $75. The fact that you “own” the film is great, and I am glad Disney cleared that up as many people were not comfortable laying out that money to watch the movie once for what is essentially the price of the film on Blu-ray. It is an interesting concern as we pay more to watch a film once now. Of course, you’re paying for the experience, which is a big part of the moviegoing experience.
What do you think of the latest Mulan trailer and will be spending the $30 to watch the film? Will Black Widow be the next film to debut on the Disney+ Premier Access tier? Let us know what you think in the comments.
