    Fun fact: Mulan, both versions, crashed and burned in Chinese theatres because actual Chinese people in China deemed it Orientalist.

        I think a lot of Chinese people were mad that the Eastern dragon, a revered diety in Chinese folklore, was depicted as this stupid comic relief. I know I was, am Chinese. Not sure if it actually resulted in it doing bad in the box office, but still.
