'MULAN'
FIRST PHOTO OF LIU YIFEI
What better way to start Monday than with your first look on Disney's new MULAN of Liu Yifei as the girl who dresses as a man and joins the imperial army. You already know that young Yoson An is playing her love interest.
The cast also has Jet Li as the emperor of China and Donnie Yen as Mulan's mentor, Commander Tung, while Gong Li is the villain in the March 2020 movie. Jason Scott Lee also stars.

'T-34' ENGLISH TRAILER
FOR RUSSIAN WW2 EPIC MOVIE
Continuing our visit to mother Russia, check out the mindblowing English trailer for their new WW2 film T-34! The Great Patriotic War, 1941 year. In the battles at Volokolamsky frontier, Junior Lieutenant Ivushkin on his tank
destroys the tank company of the Hauptmann Klaus Jager and finds himself in German captivity. Three years later, the Soviet tankman, despite the discontent of his comrades and the camp underground, suddenly agrees to lead a group of prisoners of war who are destined to become "cannon fodder" on captured T-34. However, Ivushkin uses the teachings for a daring and carefully planned escape. Thanks to the heroism of the comrades and the confusion of the Germans, Soviet tankmen are at large. Ahead - a provincial and undeveloped Germanic outback, to the border with the Czech Republic - 350 kilometers, and on the tail of the Soviet crew - a dozen "Panther" led by one of the best tankmen of the Reich Klaus Jager.

Liu Yifei is beautiful, and looks great with that sword!
ReplyDeleteI've often heard about T-34; it was considered a stunning tank in WW2, and sold later to the north vietnamese.
I'm not a great believer in war weapons, but rather in the quality of the soldier and his motivation. Well, the russians had that too I mean good soldiers with high motivation.
Yes, their soldiers and Russian people in general have always been amazing heroes, so many died in millions just per a city defending their towns against Nazis. They have so many heroic stories from the front.
Delete"T-34" looks great! I assume they stole some ammo for it and wreaked revenge. Good war movie stuff.
ReplyDeletethe trailer really looks amazing, noone does war movies better than those who suffered and fought for freedom most - Russians.
DeleteI never saw animated Mulan. I really dislike the soundtrack, which comes on my Spotify here and there. I will see if the trailer looks any good though. As you know, I disliked Dumbo, but cannot wait for the live version.
ReplyDeleteI like to watch Asian movies so I will probably check out Mulan, but I have a feeling it will be much weaker than most of Chinese epic films. Dumbo I won't be seeing as I find the idea of Burton doing a movie for kids repulsive :) but I know you do love that looney a lot, hope it does not disappoint you. I can't watch animals suffer, especially lil' olyphants!
DeleteIt will definitely be weaker than traditional Chinese films. It is Disney after all. They will have to keep the story neat and sappy to keep their image wholesome.
DeleteI do like it a lot that they fired that Gun director of Guardians of Galaxy, but I'm disgusted by the reactions of his cast and most of the public. We live in the world of extreme double standards methinks.
