* Right-wingers pissed off that a movie has the temerity to have a non-white cast (a.k.a. the "anti-SJWs") Nobody is saying that, you're lying again. SJWs like you are complaining "Da Patriarchy gets let off da hook!" www.superherohype.com/movies/485981-mulan-review-mandatory-moralizing-mutes-mulans-majesty"For whatever reason, but most likely a combination of corporate cowardice and Chinese censors, this gender-bending tale has, ironically, been neutered. Just as plainly as under the Hays Code of the 1950s, characters designated as “good” may not do a single bad deed, and if they do, they must punish themselves for it first. At the risk of spoiling any specific beats in a very familiar story, this reduces every single character conflict to a minor misunderstanding that can never taint anyone’s absolute innate goodness. Maybe that’s fair in a movie aimed at all ages. But it ultimately has the effect of letting the patriarchy entirely off the hook in what ought to be a female empowerment story. Sure, they were over-zealous in not letting women in the army, but hey, Mulan told a lie! So…both sides!" Does that failed Captain Marvel boycott still sting?
