Talk:Mulan (2020 film)/@comment-27373870-20180728212006/@comment-4889892-20180816210820

What I'm wondering is if you don't like the idea of Mulan being a fantasy story because she may have been a real person and would not have gone through anything supernatural. I mean, I like the idea of Mulan using her own human skills rather than powers to defeat the enemy (as this is more relatable) but this does not have to be diminished (the only interaction Mushu has with anybody besides Mulan is forging the letter, acting as a source of fire, and retrieving the rocket that killed Shanyu. Nothing about this affects Mulan's human nature. If he was a lizard spirit, it would be similar. If there was a fantasy war, this could go on out of the human realm.)

Also, I know that wuxia films can be fantasies, but that's not always the case. The House of Flying Daggers did have some unbelievable moments, but it's not really a fantasy genre movie.
