One of the best movies and a great story that I personally feel was well done in the animated series. The music was great and really drove home a lot of the story. I’ll make a man out of you is so catchy and the video part just really lays in on how much better Mulan was at these “man” tasks. A perfect movie that I’m just glad they never made a live action for… yep totally glad they didn’t do one where they decided to not have any songs in it. Perfect how it is.

For anyone wondering
木 兰 诗
唧唧复唧唧,木兰当户织。不闻机杼声,唯闻女叹息。
问女何所思?问女何所忆?“女亦无所思,女亦无所忆。
昨夜见军帖,可汗大点兵。军书十二卷,卷卷有爷名。
阿爷无大儿,木兰无长兄。愿为市鞍马,从此替爷征。”
东市买骏马,西市买鞍鞯,南市买辔头,北市买长鞭。
朝辞爷娘去,暮宿黄河边。不闻爷娘唤女声,但闻黄河流水鸣溅溅。
旦辞黄河去,暮至黑山头。不闻爷娘唤女声,但闻燕山胡骑声啾啾。
万里赴戎机,关山度若飞。朔气传金析,寒光照铁衣。将军百战死,壮士十年归。
归来见天子,天子坐明堂。策勋十二转,赏赐百千强。
可汗问所欲,“木兰不用尚书郎,愿借明驼千里足,送儿还故乡。”
爷娘闻女来,出郭相扶将;阿姊闻妹来,当户理红妆;
小弟闻姊来,磨刀霍霍向猪羊。开我东阁门,坐我西阁床;
脱我战时袍,着我旧时裳;当窗理云鬓,对镜帖花黄。
出门看火伴,火伴皆惊惶。“同行十二年,不知木兰是女郎。”
雄兔脚扑朔,雌兔眼迷离。双兔傍地走,安能辩我是雄雌?

#1 Every extra line added to a cartoon character either ages them or makes them look more masculine. See the American Gothic ancestors just underneath, one simple line under the eyes becomes deep bags showing advanced age. So the fingernails are left off unless the character has big mitts which are a significant part of their overall appearance.
astrangehop
Was there a good reason for the nipples?
unclesporky
Yes.
MerriMod
It's also a case of animation oversight and/or using fingernails to further accent movement and shape of the hand. In "Honor to Us All", two characters have fingernails, but one has his fingernails vanish mid-motion when his hands change position. Moments later, the boys who steal a girl's doll have fingernails while the girl doesn't. - https://youtu.be/O2QJ5n1uQWU?si=C2tjl40tfN0HwYCD&t=69

In old french gangsta lingo 3 dots means "mort aux vaches" an equivalent of ACAB (that translates into death to cows). Seems made up now that I read it, I'm gonna check.

Gimli: "Still only counts as one!"
flyingmonkeystick
Gimli said it only counts as one because despite being an impressive kill, the oliphaunt Legolas killed was still one individual. So his kill count only went up by one. Here, everyone on Alderaan died, so the kill count went up by about two billion.

Orson Callan Krennic got shot in the head with the death star by Tarkin and the laser operators.

Debatable. Tarkin gave the order to fire, so IMO he's got the strongest claim.
Shaows
But Palpatine gave him the Death Star project
TallynNyntyg
That's like saying the inventor of the AK-47 has a high kill count because of its high usage.

It's more like the President of the U.S. approving a nuke launch compared to the General that gave the final command to press the button, the President is still completely responsible for the whole thing.

Laser operator didn't make the decision to fire, Tarkin did.

To confirm a kill, there must be remains to count. Therefore tarkin has a confirmed planet destroyed count, but no body count

Seems kinda arbitrary, considering “confirmed kills” aren’t a real thing in the military.

#6 the military probably forced her to fight right handed, most did.
Feanordidnothingwrong3000
She's also specifically writing cheat notes on her arm in that shot, which means it's not necessarily because she usually writes left handed. Might just be easier to read off her right arm
AllMaktAtTengilVarBefriare
This was my first thought as well
Maverickaura
i feel like it was most likely an animation oversight than anything intentional. this list is kinda suspect since it called basically "any group of three dots not even connected to eachother" a mickey mouse reference
dragoonwraith
I visited a castle in Wales where the tour guide claimed that 7/8 towers spiraled one way, but the last one spiraled the other way and was manned by left-handed defenders, since lefties were approximately 1/8 of the population. No idea if it’s true.
InnocentValley
I've heard somewhere that lefties are about 12% which is not too far from 1/8th. Although google says 10% but I guess it can vary depending on location.
silv0s
Try writing on your right arm with your right hand, that is very difficult. Don't think that makes her left-handed. But yeah, people were mostly taught and trained to use their right hand, even if they are left-handed.

backitupthunder

BishlamekGurpgork
It's an advantage, like a boxer, against people who aren't used to it. But it would mean less for a noble. The reason soldiers might be taught only righty is because they fight in formations, and shields on every man's left leave a path for every man's right to attack; weapons and armor for entire Arthur sometimes had design features like cutouts for a spear, that assumed certain weapons or formations.
BishlamekGurpgork
Keep in mind that historians also thought people putting knives on rafters were getting them closer to the sun god to make them sharper, instead of keeping them out of the reach of children.
transientmind
Also I’m a left handed writer, but do everything else right-handed. We’re out there, it’s not that weird, they’re different actions requiring different muscles. XD
Unclescam
Total made up by me thing that I totally believe...most lefties are a fair bit more ambidextrous than the righties.
IHaveGreatKittenRecipes
Lefty who was trained by the school system to be a righty. I write right-handed, switch hands depending on seating arrangement for eating, and do most of my job left handed except using my winch bar, I do that right handed. It's easier to stick to right for a lot of things where handedness determines tool shape, I can do either way about equally but stuff like scissors, unless someone hands me lefty scissors I might as well do it with my right and save the hassle.
modus0
I'm left dominant, but shoot right-handed, because my left eye's visibility is pretty shitty. I'd probably have trouble hitting the broad-side of a barn trying to aim with that eye.
unclesporky
I do not accept that literally any vague collection of 3 dots must be a "hidden Mickey" unless it's confirmed by the creators. People are hunting desperately for them like Jesus in their toast.

Seconded, especially considering this specific kind of dappling and coloration is really commonplace. Hidden Mickeys are a thing, but this really doesn't seem like one of them

PrincessWendyB
I know a guy works at Disneyland, and "hidden Mickys" are indeed a thing there. Threedots, a hairstyle with two buns, all sorts.
blainetog
Hidden Mickey's are absolutely a thing, but usually the circles at least somewhat resemble the classic Mickey symbol. In this case, the dots don't have a clear distinction between head and ears, so I'm inclined to think they don't count.
MrglBrglGrgl
Yeah, every hidden mickey I've seen has been clearly deliberate. These... not so much
Goldensands
Eh could just be a stylistic choice. I doubt Mickey was big in China when Mulan came out.
NotSomoneElse68
I wouldn't be surprised, though. It is kind of a thing they do.
Klaaism
At least Jesus toast can be sold.
Youhavinagiraffe
If Jesus toast was drawn from scratch by people employed by the Vatican then I'd be more included to believe it was an image of Jesus. The main reason it's a silly logical leap is that pattern came about through natural processes, a thing you can't apply to a cartoon
Fengor
My Jesus toast told me to kill Abe Lincoln, he was really upset when I told him that Lincoln died 159 years ago.

#2 What people don't realize is the people in the painting are father and daughter
Hoiloidl
The woman in the picture is the artists's sister, the man is their dentist. Those people were not related nor married. The interpretation of the picture itself and the artist's intent are open to interpretation though.
CityYeti
In American Gothic, Grant Wood directly evoked images of an earlier generation by featuring a farmer and his daughter posed stiffly and dressed as if they were, as the artist put it, “tintypes from my old family album.” They stand outside of their home, built in an 1880s style known as Carpenter Gothic.
everythingiscats
#1 Neither does Jasmine or Pocahontas or Aurora.. most of the Disney princesses I bet. Probably done to make their hands look more delicate and feminine.
MerriMod
It varies. Some characters have fingernails, others don't, and some characters gain or lose their fingernails mid-animation. For example, Li Shang doesn't have fingernails even when he's being shown flaunting his muscles, shirtless. Chi-fu, who is joked about for his unmasculine traits, has fingernails. Yao does have fingernails in most scenes, but loses them in others. Princess Jasmine, for another example, has fingernails in some scenes but loses them in others. It's a quirk of animation.

pareidoliaperson
Or, and get this, it's a cartoon!
JackalopeElope
That's not how glowing works. Magic works. Transparent skull/eyes works. Laser eyes could work. Glowing eyes wouldn't work.
OtherPlayers
Sure it would, it's just that his eyes would need to be as bright as the firelight and sunken enough into his head that the light didn't disperse outwards. So maybe "if his eyes were spotlights" would be a better description than just "glowing".
To see a similar effect IRL just point a laser pointer at your shadow, then imagine holding a bunch of laser pointers of identical strength and color as the light behind you.
queernosaur
#8 but.... at the time she was doing the voice over, wouldn't the movie already be done and all?
Antineutrino11
Was going to say, I doubted they went back and reanimated for that
somnif
They'll usually record initial voice work on animatics or even just storyboards. The animators then work to capture the energy and "tone"
Antineutrino11
Oh interesting, will have to look more into that process. I guess I figured the actors would act based on how the animation was done.
somnif
It does vary occasionally, like a lot of Anime is drawn then recorded (or used to be anyway?). Its cheaper/faster, but rougher looking.
TracerReaperSoldierMei
I came to look for this comment.
BigBlueWonder
Usually with animation, they create the story board and rough animation first. Then the voice acting and then the final animation. That way you can animate in little nuances that the actors provided in their roles.
Noahbalboa82
#6 That's what I do. Fine motor movement is lefty, most other with right
quzar
Or because she's writing onto her right arm she needs to use her left hand. When it came time to write on the left arm ...
MerriMod
Mulan uses chopsticks, pours tea, gathers her hair, and puts on her shoe with her left hand, and reflexively grabs moving items (a stolen doll, a thrown staff, etc) with her left (when other characters in the same scene vary using left, right, or both hands, so it's not just uniformity in animation). She's shown using both hands in dominant positions before and after the montage in "I'll Make a Man Out of You", so she was ambidextrous to begin with but left-hand dominant until after training.
Noahbalboa82
Wow, you've studied up on Mulan

MerriMod
Exclusively male Smurfs are brought as babies by the stork, from an unknown source somehow associated with the moon (specifically the occasional blue moon). However, Papa Smurf and Gargamel have repeatedly demonstrated magic that forcibly transforms objects and other living creatures into Smurfs, even to the point of wholly rewriting their personalities and memories. Smurfs are naturally "born" in an unknown manner, but have the option of assimilating other akin to the Borg.
