The worst part is that she's weak at the beginning and then works hard to get better, literally everyone is clumsy and unskilled when they first do something, but apparently "telling" girls they're not going to be experts at something but they can be if they work hard is forbidden.
Yeah, but she doesn't stay clumsy, although the fact that she was helped by a male officer would make feminists go "REEE you think women can only become better under male supervision" because God forbid we show men and women (dressed as men in this case, but still) working alongside eachother.
OG Mulan is a movie that the entire political spectrum can enjoy.
A girl who fights gender roles and has to work even harder because she wants to protect her nation from a foreign invasion and she inspires her fellow soldiers and even commander to do so. Also funny dragon and good music.
Yet new movie manages to fuck EVERYTHING UP, INCLUDING GETTING RID OF THE FUNNY DRAGON AND GOOD MUSIC.
They did it for the Chinese audience, but why do they think Chinese audiences will go and watch Disney's attempts to pander to them with Chinese culture when they could easily watch Chinese films written by people who actually know the culture? They surely don't expect Disney to make an historically accurate film...
I don't know why Disney bothers, especially with Disney+. Why should I watch a pale imitation of your animated movie when I can watch the original with exactly as much effort?
You've stumbled upon the real reason for eternal copyright terms. They don't want to compete with things produced in the path by real artists and real effort. It jeopardizes their ability to push schlock on schedule.

She doesn't become better by herself either. A bunch of peasants developed into a cohesive military unit under a talented officer.

We can't have that now. Self-preservation of your people as a cohesive nation is xenophobia.
