The original story of Mulan and Disney version had many similar details. They both had a river. They also had a bridge to cross.

The original version of Mulan also including details that were different than the Disney version. They both had different settings. In the Disney version, they had multiple settings.

One way that the movie is different than the book is that the old man thought that man was dishonorable. In the book, there was no old

    I believe the movie was told very differently than the book because a movie director is entertaining a different audience than an author of a book. A director has different goals and thoughts to portray than the original book. The director is given certain artistic freedoms to help better connect with the audience and sometimes that makes the story change a little…

    Contemplate the fact that in the book, no women are present at the end of the novel, but in the film, women play a role in the reconstruction of the new society. Possibly, this difference reflects that the book was written in 1953, whereas the film was made 14 years later.…

    In the movie Mrs. Doubtfire the father is not allowed to see his children so he dresses up like a woman and becomes the nanny so he can see his children. In the movie She’s the Man the main character loves to play soccer. When soccer is to be taken away from her she dresses up like a man and plays on a boys soccer team. This reminds me of Mulan because she also dresses like a man in order to save her family. She goes to war as her.

They are all forced to changed there identity to so what they love or see whom they love.…

    These are the different things that I’ve noticed within the movie and the book. Also there are more differences but the movie and book do have some similarities. For example in the book and the movie the old man still has treasures. He also still has what was described as a “vulture eye”. So the book and the movie were not completely…

    Disney Princess Role Model

    • 1285 Words
    • 6 Pages

    While this may seem a step in the right direction, all of the disney princesses have altered clothes that make them seem like objects, not humans to be admired. In Mulan’s case, she is dressed in an imperial kimono, with a bejeweled obi and flowing sparking skirt. She embodies a perfect chinese princess - exactly what she was not intended to be. Mulan centers around the titular character trying to empower women through casting aside traditional female roles. The first scene and song “Reflections” entails how Mulan despises fancy dresses and arranged marriages. This new design overturns all her character development, showing that Mulan cannot be a princess without the proper princess attire. The new designers lighten Jasmine's and Pocahontas’s skin, utilizing white highlights, making Tiana the only true dark skinned princess. Surrounded by light skinned princesses, a dark-skinned child would feel left out, her dream of being a princess far out of reach. Despite the alleged growth in America’s policy toward diversity, Disney seems to have been left behind, still setting for the same explicit message of light over dark…

    There are many differences between the two but there are four main ones that stuck out the most. In the Disney version, Hera is Hercules’ mother, whereas in the original, his mother is a mortal, named Alcmena, making him a demigod (Zeus was his father) which means in the Disney movie he is born a god. In the original he is assigned the twelve tasks as repentance for killing his wife and children. In the Disney film Hercules’s doing the twelve tasks to become a real hero. Another big thing was that in the beginning of the original story, Hera sends two snakes to kill Hercules. In the Disney version Hades sends his two demons two simply kill Hercules but they fail to, so they turn into snakes and try to kill him. The last and biggest difference of all is that in the Disney movie, Hercules has to defeat the Titans whereas the original myth didn’t even talk about them.…

    The third and final big difference was Grendel. The poem said that Grendel was a son of Cain. He would attack when everyone was sleeping because people were telling the creation story. In the movie, Grendel was a son of Hrothgar. Grendel attacked during the party because of the praise people would give to Hrothgar. Hollywood did this because they wanted to make them three dimensional, good versus evil. The movie removed references to God and Christianity, so that it would be more favored by the bad guy, Unferth. Hollywood also wanted to make it more appealing to the changing audiences to make them interested in watching it.…

    Hercules: Movie Vs Myth

    The movie and the myth of the story of Hercules were in a plethora of ways different. From the very beginning the two were extremely different. Even within the first 10 minutes of the movie, there were already clear differences that were shown more and more as the time went on. The movie version of Hercules had little to nothing in similarity to the myth. The only real comparison that could be made is the use of the names in both and the fact that Hercules had incredible strength. From even the smallest details, the two were greatly unalike. For example, in the original myth there were nine muses, but in Disney’s version they had 5. Another outstanding difference was the fact that in the myth, Hercules was the son of Zeus and a mortal by the…

    A similarity would be that in the both the book and the movie, Hercules had confidence in his powers and strengths. Hercules, never really used his intelligence when making decisions. Hercules emotions were very strong throughout both the book and the movie. Hercules strangled two snakes at the nursery in the dead of the night. At the end of both stories Hercules had eternal peace. In both the movie and the book Hercules dad is Zeus. Hercules is a demi god. In both the movie and the book Hercules overcame many obstacles.
