- TriviaIn Mulan (1998), as part of her disguise and transformation to join the military, Mulan cut off most of her waist length hair. This scene wasn't adapted to the live-action film because it was considered redundant. Historically speaking, long hair on men was very common in imperial China, so Mulan having long hair at the military camp would not have been considered unusual.
- GoofsUnlike the Greek phoenix, the Chinese fenghuang did not go up in flames to renew itself; it propagated in the normal way. While the bird is fictional and has no "real" biology, this movie makes a concentrated effort to get Chinese culture right.
- Crazy creditsThe Walt Disney Pictures logo is Chinese-themed: it features Chinese landscapes in the background, and the Disney castle used is the Shanghai Disneyland Castle with the castle's main outer walls in Chinese architecture.
After it appears, the phoenix flies over it.
- Alternate versionsAccording to director Niki Caro, a short kissing scene between Mulan and Honghui at the end had to go as it would seem too 'western' to the Chinese audience. The scene was not restored in any of the American home video versions.

Hollow.
The kindest words I can give to this movie is maybe the movie magic was lacking because I watched it at home.
Nah. Even as an Asian, this movie was hollow. It's a disgrace to the original.
